Re: 2024 Miami Grand Prix Race Thread
Hmm, I sense certain energy here that Lando was only lucky, won because of SC etc. Luck is one of the factors in the sport and he used it, not the luckiest of SCs in the recent years to be honest... I don't remember (correct me if I'm wrong) that Ricciardo's Monza '21 win was commented like that, a...

Re: Topical Trivia
Imola is one of only two tracks to have hosted a grand prix under 3 different names
Emilia Romangna, San Marino, Italy
The other is the Nürburgring - Germany, Luxembourg, Europe.

Re: Newey Leaving Red Bull
This is a play by Horner and Newey to get rid of Marco and Verstappen clan. Newey leaves, Vestappens get worried about car development, run to another team. Marco loses his power without Verstappens, retires. Newey come back after a year of sabbatical (sailing around the world/whatever). Horner and...

Sainz would be incredibly stupid to take the Audi drive over an absolute certain WDC shot in a Red Bull in 2025. If Audi don't get Sainz they'll likely pair 38 year old Hulkenberg with 36 year old Bottas. It's not like the Audi opportunity isn't going to come back around. I completely disagree. "IF...
