Completely agree.

So in this thread we can also discuss the direct comparison between Hamilton and Verstappen. So far on my amateur free-spirited nanotech spreadsheets where I use my eyes and limited reason to deduce performance, I have Verstappen a bit ahead of Hamilton after 2 races on performance. They are scored...

I think there is 2 components to this qualifying and the race itself, it has to be underlined how important qualifying is. In Bahrain Red Bull were faster in qualifying and the race, in Imola Red Bull were faster in qualifying but Mercedes faster in the race, I suspect given the conditions that mig...

Did Vettel try reversing out of the gravel after his 2018 German GP crash?

Invade

Its no surprise Alonso got outqualified by Ocon, I never expected something spectacular from his return. Bahrain with its track nature provide some playing ground to him, with more space, wide corners so he's classical style of leaning on the car, massive inputs of the steering wheel, playing with ...

. Due to the recovery, Hamilton. What did Max do that was equivalent ? For the last few years Hamilton has often been denied votes in the "driver of the day" threads because he basically just led from start to finish - but now that Max does that he gets loads of votes. Hilarious. . . Aight man.

That was some off-weekend for Bottas. I don't expect him to challenge Hamilton every race, but the gulf here was enormous. The Russel incident was unfortunate for both, but what we he doing being passes by a Williams anyway? Yes the chasm in quality and skill between Bottas and Hamilton was simply ...

Invade

So why all the votes for Max ? Strange viws on what makes a good drive on display here. . HAM started on pole but finished 2nd. VER started P3 but finished 1st. HAM made a massive mistake which cost him enormous time. VER made a mistake which could have cost him a couple of positions but LEC wasn't...

Really isn't much in it is there, but what is great is that when they are this close you really start to see the difference the great drivers make and how they handle the pressure. Max definitely handled it better than Lewis at Imola. That's two races of chaos he's won in the last 3 seasons (German...

. Only two votes for Hamilton, despite that wonderful recovery drive ? Me thinks that sour grapes are on show. . Eh. Hamilton's drive was bipolar. He was overzealous twice and he was also amazingly quick, even with front wing damage, and ruthlessly efficient in carving up the field. He was both sup...

Ultimately, when I think about which car should have won the race in Imola, I conclude it's RBR because they could and maybe should have locked out the front row, which should have been enough to confirm the win, given that their race pace was worst case scenario marginally worse than Merc's and giv...

Invade

In the mixed conditions in Imola, I think Merc were as fast or faster than RB once they got their tyres into the window, and faster at the end of stints. RB were much faster at the beginning of stints to the tune of several seconds over a few laps. It's simply very evenly matched overall between the...

Invade

What I like the most is how Max is saying it's a long season, stay calm - he's grounding the entire situation of the potential Championship fight. Asked (I think post qualy in the presser) about whether it was important to beat Lewis in the race, he just responded with those general sentiments. And ...

Invade

It’s unbelievable the amount of good fortune he has had in this run .. well it all evens out .. I expect the end of his career to even it all out I think a lot of bad luck happened earlier in his career but I admit it's probably on the good side now. Is that Glock? I don't know if that's good luck?...

Invade

That was a real mixed bag for Hamilton. Unnecessary to try to hang on on Verstappen at the start but showed enough pace to possibly overcut him as the track started to dry, only for a slow change in the pits. Again, showing good pace to close Verstappen down after but his over-eagerness to pass the...

Fastest lap duel here!

And they both crash out under the pressure of delivering the fastest lap!

Can you imagine that actually happening...

Invade

Hamilton said to Lando Move on, let's race.

And here we are.

Hamilton is crazy lucky.

Yeh but now time to give him kudos for making good on his luck. Imagine Bottas in this situation.

Invade

This is highly amusing to me.

Hamilton might finish 2nd. LOL.

Hamilton to finish 3rd or 2nd here.
I’m surprised he hasn’t caught up to Sainz quicker

I think he's saving a bit, understanding he has plenty of laps to get the job done and that Norris is holding up the Ferraris. Still has to manage.

Lets see how long hamilton is stuck behind Stroll compared to Bottas.
I'm guessing that wasn't the answer you wanted?

LOL

Invade

Leclerc won't be able to do anything to Verstappen unless he gets him right at the beginning. If ya want a race for the lead than Norris needs to clear Leclerc, I reckon.

Invade

On the wet line, nominally you would never leave the dry line to pass into a corner on the wet line because there is no grip. I can't be the only one who thought Hamilton might go off before he did when you saw those heli shots of him happily getting his slicks wet. I thought he'd perhaps just go o...

Invade

Hamilton was way too eager to clear the backmarkers.

He was overpressing!

The race has been red flagged, quite predictably.

Invade

Yeh it didn't take long for Lando to utterly gap Ricciardo.

Invade

I thought Sainz is a rain master, Mark Hughes...

Invade

Max is gaining seconds per lap.

Invade

The race has barely begun and it's absolute chaos.

Invade

Was good racing from Verstappen. Feel Hamilton should have ceded the position. Now he has substantial front wing damage in tricky conditions.

Invade

And it seems Quartararo is starting to come of age, combining his natural speed and flair with extra confidence and a greater maturity. It's a compliment to Marquez that so many across the net expected him to not skip a beat on his return, but ultimately he does need more time. But it was an admirab...

Invade

Start will be delayed I'm sure. Nah, I'd like to see who has the balls to start on slicks. No where near wet enough for a delayed start. But I'm in the view that the race shouldn't be delayed because of a bit of rain. As I've said. With the races like in the 90s and 00s. We raced in worse and start...

So Alonso in the wall, Bottas rear left puncture, Stroll has his brakes on fire and Vettel's brakes are smoky. Still 25 minutes until lights out

Wow what a race it's been.

Invade

Are you kidding me? Rins and Zarco crash out in quick succession with 6-7 laps to go from podium positions!

Rins was living with Quartararo's pace up in the lead until... until he wasn't.

Invade

Actually Bottas Could Impact the front today. It assumes that he gets a good clean getaway and the Merc has a substantial pace advantage on the cars 4th-7th, (LeClerc will be the most difficult, one would expect). Anyway if Valtteri gets up to 4th he could be right in the gap where Red Bull wants t...
