Re: 2017 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread

Here's Ric's chance Show no mercy Don't hold back :lol: If Hamilton has any sense he won't fight too hard. So having said that, he'll probably end up in the wall. Welcome back! I was getting worried that you'd done something stupid! I do know how you feel, last year in Malaysia Lewis lost the WDC d...

Re: 2017 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread

"That could be a championship defining moment," said Martin Brundle. "I think it's Vettel's fault as he didn't realise his team-mate was there and squeezed Verstappen," Brundle says. "If you're going to blame anybody, you have to blame Vettel . There was nowhere Verstappen could go." I don't get wh...

Kimi was the black swan in this start. Max yielded but had nowhere to go. Vettel isn't as much as fault as people claim. It was an unfortunate racing incident.

Camera shots of the Ferrari team show utter despondency. The team realizes the utter devastation of Vettel's mistake. Herb, please allow some leeway.

Re: Is There Actually Any Debate About the Top 5?

Hamilton's emotionally weak, inconsistent and overrated. Alonso is too political, and people give him too much credit for average performances in poor cars. Vettel's too slow and can only lead from the front. Needs a car built around him. Ricciardo is getting outpaced by a child, and only mechanica...

Re: 2017 Italian Grand Prix Race Thread

I doubt Ham and Bot are even really driving near the limit given their engine allocation for the rest of the season yet they're driving > 1 sec/lap faster than anyone. That's just sad for F1. Then it wI'll most likely be the same for Ferrari next week, sad for F1? I'm not convinced, this will happen.
