Oscar didn't get 2nd position by fighting hard, he got it by sheer luck. There's nothing wrong with luck, but I would have much preferred him to overtake rather than have it fall into his lap. If teams tried to change things that got lucky/unlucky during a race, then we would never get anywhere. Lu...

I think in the interest of fairness, we should never have them race, and if someone wins, they should split the prize in half, maybe even scrap the medals, just give them participation ones, to be fair to everyone...

If a team is completely built around one driver, we'll never get a fair idea of how that driver compares to the grid until they leave it. And even then, there's not the slightest guarantee that the picture we see in the new team paints anywhere near a complete enough portrait of the true capabiliti...

Every successful team goes through this recruitment cycle. Mercedes certainly did, McLaren will too in the future. M ateschitz's replacement wanting to stamp his mark to feed his ego is going to have an effect especially if they continue with the 'we know best, shut up & accept our clueless orders'...

Siao7

Past "luck" has no baring on future luck though. It is just as likely for Norris to be the unlucky one going forward. Unless the stars perfectly align for him like Rosberg in 2016 or Prost 1989. It does happen. Piastri does not even require luck, he just requires an even amount of bad/good luck bet...

It certainly would be. But I don't think there's any consistent pattern of the stewards scrutineering suspicious cars. I recall in particular one race (COTA, I think?) where they disqualified one Ferrari for plank wear without checking the other, which seemed baffling at the time. I'm sure I heard ...

Last time I checked you were not involved in this diversion. So no, I did not reply to you. Your initial message using this analogy was to me. I didnt really get the relevance of what you were saying comparing driving down the road to overtaking on a race track - which is what someone else said. Yo...

I said he left the door open, I didn't blame him for the incident, such as it was. One driver dive bombing a corner is another driver leaving the door wide open, well it seems to be if you're called Lewis Hamilton. No divebombing occurred. There isn't even enough of a braking zone for a divebombing...

I still think Norris will win this. Whilst I don't think he has been particularly lucky and Piastri unlucky, I don't remember any bad breaks costing Lando anything this year. In a championship like this, the small breaks are going to matter. The 2x team strategy errors for Piastri at Hungary and Im...

Absolutely. They aren't competing for either championship. Roll the dice. Given their understanding of the parameters at play, would it be reasonable for the officials to specifically target them because, well, it's kind of obvious...? It certainly would be. But I don't think there's any consistent...

I need to recap the 2010, 2011 and 2012 seasons for Schumacher, apart from the odd special race he was doggers as far as I remember, his most memorable moment was nearly killing barichello

You really do.

Mclaren have disapeared, 1-2 finish in four of the last 5 races. The title is surely going to one of them. The battle for third is getting interesting. Leclerc is collecting a lot of podiums and is 46 points behind Verstappen now. Can he catch him? Russell is also in the mix, but the Mercedes form ...

Yes he shifted his bottling to qualifying now instead if turn 1 He's had the fastest car in the vast majority of the last 32 races and has led the first lap just 6 times. How he's getting ranked above Leclerc is beyond me. The top 3 drivers of the season are so clearly Verstappen, Leclerc and Russe...

Hamilton in 6th, especially with Leclerc 5th is crazy to me. He's been beaten by Leclerc almost everywhere.

Hamilton is shown 7th in my screen, probably someone voted in the meantime. I don't mind Lewis in 7th (or even 6th), but I agree that it feels like Charles should be higher in the list.

Who wants to change back is a good, but ultimately irrelevant question. The regulations were what they were and I certainly don't recall any great clamour over driver weight. I happen to be reading Adrian Newey's book, and he wrote that for the 1993 car, he added (or felt he had to add) power steer...

Who here would like to change back to the old rules? I am hearing a lot of justification for the old rules etc. But lets see who would like to change back to those rules?

Pre 1994 they weighed just the car. So if a driver 1 weighs 60kg and his team mate weighs 75kg he would gain 0.5 a lap. 1995-2018. They weighed the driver and car. Car weighs 500kg Driver 1 weight 60kg Driver 2 weighs 75 kg Car + driver weight limit is 600kg. Driver 1 gets 40kg of ballast. The ball...

Is the hopeless trial still on - does anybody know? Or has Massa chickened out in the meantime after he had his days of being in the public again? It's still on. The goal has to be a bit of money in order to settle the case. No way he can actually win. How do you know? Do you have any newer sources...
