Perez is 34 and I don’t think he’s got anything left in him at this stage, there’s a Webber 2013 vibe around Perez at the moment where everyone can feel that he’s on his last legs. Eventually, I think Verstappen will have a teammate like Leclerc, Russell or Norris. But we will have to wait for some...

Anyone can defend anything, and everything is open to interpretation. I can interpret that black is white, no problem. Yes one can and yes it is. But reason does exist. Thank you, and you can not reason for what Masi did was okay. If you havent followed the last few days we have done away with any/...

It should be noted what Perez did to Hamilton this race, it is greatly applauded by many, but wasnt it also interfering with racing ? If in your view it is only fair to remove cars so Max is not held up from catching Hamilton, then you must also think that what Perez did was unfair, as holding up H...

The problem is that almost every GOAT contender has at least one serious bullet-hole in their legacy. Schumacher: Jerez 1997, no competitive teammate Senna: Suzuka 1990, probably a ban worthy action. Clark: lost to Moss when he had factory support Hamilton: lost to Button, Rosberg and Russell, none...

Hamilton isn't the first and won't be the last to point the finger (both at others and at himself) when things go wrong. Leclerc has also vented frustration with his team - and not been slow to blame himself (the infamous 'I am an idiot') as well. Hopefully Vasseur will set the theme and where to dr...

I can't see any motivation for Red Bull to take on Hamilton to partner Verstappen. Red Bull's ethos generally seems to be having a good foil for the current big thing or taking on the next big thing. Verastappen is already Red Bull's current big thing and Hamilton is an established big thing - it's...

tootsie323

This is my question mark. Hamilton is great at managing the car but I don't see the same when it comes to dynamic strategy management from the cockpit (unlike, say, Vettel during his time at Ferrari who - on more than one occassion - called the strategy shots). On the other hand, I'd expect Vasseur...

Just added my vote. I’ll go against the grain and predict that Leclerc will be quicker on Saturday and Sunday. Strategy wise neither will have an advantage and Leclerc will probably get favourable pit stops simply because he will be ahead on the track at the end of the first stint. This partnership...

I think it is very unlikely given Verstappen's very high levels of performance. So the accusations of an unfair playing field will continue to the rounds until Verstappen retires. No doubt Perez is a goner after this season ends. Who's your money on for '25? If Red Bull can scoop up any kind of rea...

tootsie323

just like "black" may be interpreted as "white". This kind of argument makes no sense and would not stand infront of a legal court fex. 'Any' and 'all' are not akin to 'black' and 'white.' Replace 'any' with 'none' and you have a genuine comparison. https://www.michbar.org/file/generalinfo/plaineng...

I have just said openly it was unfair to Lewis, nothing to hide here. The regs presrcibe all cars unlapping to begin with.Masi had nothing to decide just follow them.

... Do you think partial unlapping is fair or not..?

Not for those who remain lapped.
But fairness is not the key issue. Otherwise, the rules would find a way to avoid safety cars / mid-race stoppages (or whatever else may artificially bunch up the field).

I liked Portimão a lot and would love to see Hockenheim coming back. I also like Istanbul and Aragon Motorland.

Aragon is great for bikes but I fear that it wouldn't be a good spectacle for F1 racing (I'd love to be proven wrong). Agree with the others.

I think that both Piastri and Norris can improve further. Piastri, obviously, having learnt the ropes at the deep end in his first season. But, as has been mentioned above, Norris missed a couple of possible poles with small mistakes in the crunch part of quali. I really hope that McLaren is a genui...

" So - procedure was not followed but it didn't really influence the potential outcome." wrong, if they unlap all cars then Lewis wins. I'm not referring to the additional lap here; merely that if the race had resumed with all cars being unlapped, it would not have made a difference to the race res...

Is it too much of a stretch to imagine Albon making it back into the second RB seat? I'm not convinced by either of the two AT drivers and would have been tempted to plump for Lawson if anyone. Albon, meanwhile, has mullered Sargeant who has beaten Lawson in a junior series (yes, that's not necessar...

Lets imagine at AD21, at the Last lap Max can only gets ahead of Lewis at the finish line for the same amount of time and by the same distance, as he has got ahead behind the SC. Would the stewards and you claim it wasnt an overtake and still Lewis won? Yes - Fernando Alonso passed Michael Schumach...

Fiki, I think thats why the SC stays out for one more lap in the rules, so there's time for catch up. In normal circumstances, I believe that is correct. It is what happened at the Eifel 2020 GP. The difference between that race, and the Abu Dhabi 2021 race, is that the title was still to be decide...

tootsie323

The regulations didn't explicitly cover the unlapping of a few cars, as per AD21. However, they didn't explicity forbid it and neither the stewards' protest response nor the follow up FIA report state that it did - merely stating that article 48.12 may not have been fully followed. Personally, by no...

No because then it all went according to the rules and not imaginary procedures made up on site allowed by imaginary overriding authority. I'm inc...

tootsie323

The debate over the legality of what Masi did in releasing the safety car 'early' is one that I can see both sides of. My view is that there was a breach of the safety car procedure and I'm not convinced that the overriding authority referred to relates directly to this (yes, the stewards implied th...
