like everyone else, i have an opinion on the crash, doesn't really matter. I've been tired of random penalties, from random stewards for a long time. some stewards will call things a penalty, where another steward would not. so inconistent. and what did the penalty sunday do ? nothing, except let ev...

I thought the top 3 lap of honour after the sprint was underwhelming. They were in a huge mobile billboard, with only a letterbox opening through which to wave to the fans. And why did only Max get the laurel wreath? In the old days the top 3 all got to wear them. Yes, the entire post sprint lap of...

So .. now I know the exact race pace pecking order. Can't say it's made me hyped for the race tomorrow. This is the problem. Ross Brawn was saying they won't be cannibalizing the Grand Prix, but that's exactly what they've done. All of the interest of this so-called sprint was interest that it's st...

pc27b

looks....ehhh nothing special.
they claim it produces some 30% less turbulence for following closer, so keep the teams from messing with the air off the back
if the racing is better, i may grow to like those hideous wings

edit....didn't realize the car has no drs. liking that

toto cries, fia overreacts

it's not like red bull have been releasing their cars unsafely on a regular basis. unsafe releases have occurred from time to time, forever.

unnecessary rule change imo

interesting what the show is doing for ratings in the usa. good news, maybe they give austin a doubleheader this year

pc27b

turns out the mistake in turn 2 by max, created a nice change of strategy for all of us to watch. doubt red bull goes to a 2 stopper, if he was still in the lead

pc27b

2 races at cota would be awesome. one with track limits, one without

indy a possibility? not sure if they could have everything ready in time

pc27b

the small team did it. a married couple that started with nothing, risked everything, kept slowly getting better and won the 500. great story

I've been thinking something similar. Bottas seems to have more bad luck when Hamilton is having a bad day. An interesting coincidence. In this case maybe not, apparently Bottas pulled up slightly short of his pit box which meant the gun went on at an angle which lead to the damaged wheel nut, Bott...

WHoff78 "The drivers at the end looked like they had just finished a casual round of Sunday golf. "

did they look drunk ?!!?

i would guess rally racing

i don't understand the constant bad mouthing of bottas. as a fan, would we all have liked vettel, or the last few seasons Verstappen, in the other merc, to see how those battles would go ? of course. wolf has made it clear over and over that the last two season with Hamilton and rosberg where terrib...

I understand that for some Americans it will be easier to visit Miami than Austin, but really, in a country like America, I can't believe there are too many existing circuits that are all that difficult. It's America! So, aside from perhaps living near Miami or having family there, are there any ac...

This American doesn't see why the US needs a second GP. It was more or less proven in the 1980's that multiple races -- no matter how far spaced -- were not sustainable among the fanbase in the US. COTA is a wonderful, purpose-built F1 track, with the elevation changes that make it even better. A r...

i'm sill not certain it will get done. but if it does, i'll be there.

really hope this doesn't mean the end of circuit of america's on the schedule, that is such a nice track

for some reason i thought next weekend was a test. good news for me, racing is only a week away !

more laps racing, where everyone complains the cars can't pass !

https://racer.com/2021/03/11/silverstone-to-hold-f1-sprint-race-this-year-canada-still-tbc/ maybe canadian gp also. f1 isn't saturday night dirt tracking. biggest problem, at least to me, is what happens when there is a big crash in the sprint race? teams don't have a spare they can just wheel out.

pc27b

not saying its outstanding, but for some reason i like the simplicity of it

i don't think the colors go together well at all. reading that the red is for niki lauda, what a tribute to him. one thing is for sure, i am ready to see what the new cars look like next year. i'm hoping when they actually hit the track, they look "raceier" I think the main red bits is to do with I...

^ that makes more sense, thanks

pc27b

the more i think about this, the more this is a fraud to the fans. hey, if liberty had told everyone what they did illegal, and layed out the punishment, fair game. but they didn't. still hard to believe the story though. i would believe someone would have spilled the beans, especially the drivers

pc27b

Interesting, but not sure I can believe it until a reputable source reports it officially. Until then it's just an unsubstantiated rumour. The mere fact that such rumours have to exist in the first place though is a sad indictment of how poorly the FIA handled this matter. Private agreements that s...

he's back in a race car. about 1:30 in, is an interview. a few eye opening surprises for him at his first indy car test. good to see him in a race car

if, and yes that is a big if, hamilton retires after getting number 8, verstappen will be the #1 at toto/ineos/merc. imo

looking for progress on the contract negotiations, plenty of articles out there that toto/ineos/merc (tim) rejected lewis' first offer. it was a big ask from lewis, big, very big. then he rejected tim's offer and there is an end of february date to get it done i would guess it is pretty obvious. the...

will the elder mazepin fire his own son ?!?

pc27b

i don't believe the stewards have anything to do with the way max acts. what did they have to do with him mouthing off about albons podium, or his comments about sacking any driver after the grosjean crash ?
his mouth and russel in the wings....doubt he gets a merc drive

i thought verstappen was growing up a bit earlier this year. not anymore. not sure why he seems to be angry so much. or is it just spoiled ? to be fair, kimi may say exactly the same thing at times in his career. but with kimmi there is no malice, no anger, just a statement from someone on an even k...

well, the articles state it is part of ferrari "downsizing" due to the upcoming cap. i would also guess it has something to do with mazepin money coming into haas. haas seem to need a few more ferrari people to help them understand the chassis better. (and yes, there are plenty of jokes to be made t...

How do you go through an Aramco barrier!

shoddy construction ? hans device was initially complained about my many, same with the halo. glad for both of them today. hope this ends the complaining about the halo. haven't seen a crash like that in decades. amazed he climbed out and walked away

i'm reading that mazepin sr has sniffed around a few teams in the past as a potential buyer. wouldn't seem a stretch that haas could announce a co-owner, or sell the entire operation. I wouldn't be entirely shocked if, a couple of seasons from now, we have Haas run by the Mazepins, Aston Martin run...

I wouldn't call it a novelty race, it was a wet race, wet races are always good but they're not either novelty races or gimmicks. exactly. a counter question to the op's would be "do people want 21 monaco gp's" (or pick any track) rain has always been a part of racing at some point in the season an...
