Poor lad... but it reminds me of all the stupid comments made about how 'brave' and 'awesome' Kimi was to drive flat out into the smoke at Spa. Would we still think he was 'brave' and 'awesome' if he lost his legs, I think not. You're a hero until you're not. Fund's getting close to £700k now. I re...

Sad to say that the recovery has not gone well - according to this Billy Monger has had both legs amputated.

and I suppose the idea of trundling around Monaco in this years McLaren is not overly appealing I would have thought Monaco would be the kind of race he doesn't want to miss, less reliance on the engine and more on mechanical grip, McLaren have sounded confident of their chassis this year.

Was just about to post about this, what a twist! Wonder if he'll pull out of Baku for Le Mans as well (as I imagine that straight won't be much fun)

Kimi confirms that there was NO engine problem with his car. Just a setting was wrong. What?? How is that possible? Potentially a torque map setting? From what he was saying in the race he was lighting the wheels up EDIT: Not defending Kimi btw, thought he was non-existent today. Not going to indul...

Great cheer between Vettel and Hamilton. How long will that last? :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Until the first crash Vettel is not Rosberg. ;) :lol: I hope it sticks around, I'm enjoying the battle and the mutual respect (if it is genuine and not just job-prospecting as jokily suggested).

Online streaming with an annual sub paid monthly is the way to go. It's just a question of when, and how much. (I don't own a TV.) Now here's a phrase I didn't think I'd ever use when it came to F1: They should copy the service WWE currently provides. Seriously, the WWE network model is damn near p...

So someone says that their opinion of Nico went up due to an interesting stat concerning competing against WDCs and we are off to the races with the Lewis would have won if....

Good that it's finally been announced and it seems a stronger link up considering it includes their road cars than first feared but it's still a bit tricky to tell what kind of impact it will have on whether they will get bespoke fuel/lubricants for the Honda unit or just get the versions that BP/C...

McLaren road cars have a definite link with BMW, they supplied engines for the F1.

This. The road car division is completely separate from racing. Honda have no reason to feel aggrieved

This is one of the few times where we may actually see the change to orange past testing - though as said it may not be fully covering the car. I doubt it's the orange & black digital camo shown at the Richard Mille event though. Without saying too much (because I like where I work), the area in whi...

I'm surprised there weren't more Verstappen votes. Steps into a new car 5 races in and wins at the first opportunity, performing well against a credible, established driver and consistently a threat to the Mercs. Was a difficult decision though with 6 drivers who could easily have taken the accolade...

Surely that can't be the fist time a reigning WDC has had the crown taken off him by a team-mate? It's not the first but I think the last time would be Prost from Senna - 88-89. Almost said Hill to Villeneuve 96-97 but Hill obviously wasn't at Williams in 97! Full kudos to Rosberg for today. He can...

Why not do both? Certain races seen as the slog bore-fests can have 2 faster paced races, whilst the classics have a traditional set-up. Teams can bring a spare car so if there is a issue in one race they're not *inaudible* for both. I'm not against a variety of options, but I do like the traditiona...

Disappointing from vettel and ricciardo especially

Disagree about Vettel, aside from his Max whinge he drove the pickle off that Ferrari. Agreed on Daniel though, I love Ricciardo but Max spanked him today. What a drive.

This is incredible

Vettel's driving well, nice little saves. We had to wait for it but this race has been amazing so far

Unbelievable control. I recently saw that footage of him powersliding in the wet @ Interlagos 2014.. kid's incredible. And kept in front of Rosberg as well!

I'm looking forward to how many laps behind the SC then all jump into the pits.

I don't think any less of Vettel after yesterday's race. Just like almost all top drivers, he is extremely competitive and prone to verbal diarrhea. Considering the circumstances, there was a very good reason why he was irate. A driver who should not be ahead was backing him up into his teammate, i...

Yesterday was a good example of Vettel giving into rage and frustration. We'd seen hints of this at previous races from some of his rants and this weekend was his buckaroo moment. That said, I thought his actions were worthy of a fine, a reprimand and nothing more. I'm hoping that the penalty wasn't...
