Re: 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread

I think Bearman did quite well, Leclerc did superb job splitting the Red Bull's let's hope his brakes work this time maybe he can get the jump on Max and keep the race interesting for 2 laps, though I won't be watching anyway. Mercs line astern clearly that was about the best the car would do, Hamil...

Re: What is more interesting?

Would you prefer a title fight or not? Is that even a question? 2023 is the first season since 1999 I have missed multiple races altogether. Its the worst season in the 35 odd seasons I have watched. Absolutely nothing to get excited about and it was so so long, 22 races and 4-5 sprints. 25+ boring...

Re: Your favourite seasoning opening race (since 2000)

Voted 2022:
first race with new regs
Max vs Charles for first time in almost equal cars
Fernando vs Lewis

I think I remember there was only like 1 safety car as well towards the end so the racing was a bit more organic IIRC

I liked 2003 also but there were quite a few SCs

Re: So... who replaces Lewis at Mercedes?

It's hard not to think that the 'Max could go to Mercedes' rumour isn't just another ploy to try and exert pressure on Horner to quit, but if it does actually have some substance and he does have a way out of the contract, it would be astonishing to see him go to Merc. I would also assume that Red ...

Ironically if we believe the rumours, if Horner leaves this may mean Max stays at RB and then personally I see the team failing without CH, whilst at the same time if Horner stays then Max will leave and RB will conti ue to prosper. Seriously I think Horner is absolutely the key to RBRs successes (a...

2014 was a good season, Rosberg and Hamilton had a good battle with many flash points that went to the final race (mainly due to the stupid double points race for the last race) - however I admit I actually stopped watching (apart from the odd race) during 2015-2016 as it was very boring.

It will be interesting to see what effect the new DRS rules (activated on lap 2 instead of lap 3) have on strategy and racing.
