Re: Anyone believe Ferrari signed Hamilton because Charles is a disappointment?

Leclerc has shown in '22 that he can be a serious title contender if the car is good enough. This is absolutely true. It seems that the more competitive the car the better Leclerc is. I still have a feeling that he will be a choker if it goes down to the wire for some reason. But yeah, I think he c...

Re: 2024 Japanese Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread

Well we need to see what happens going forward don't we. I'd certainly say Hamilton did not look like peak Hamilton today. He claimed damage to his car when he let Russell go passed but that being said he seemed to have little fight like we saw from Russell for all of 7th place. He certainly has li...

Re: 2024 Japanese Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread

No, I think most people (including you!) have said Hamilton has very likely declined from his peak. That's obviously not the same as saying that it would be impossible for Hamilton to ever outqualify Russell. Bottom line.... You can't moan for weeks about people using a "3 race sample" and then try...

As expected, Horner is denying all the allegations but supposedly his lawyer is also offering a $750,000 settlement fee to the employee in question.
