Re: 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Thread
Hamilton's racecraft has looks a bit messy lately it seems. i've just watched the highlights. I would say he was entirely to blame for hitting Gasly and was very lucky that he didn't have to change his wing. He's had clashes in quite a few races this year. If Gasly got damage, I think hamilton shoul...

Re: 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread
Poor performance by one of the team mates in every team except the Mclaren. Though Norris again making mistakes when Mclaren has looked good. Having not seen the qualifying and seeing this post, I knew it would be Hamilton who had dropped the ball, interesting sign that maybe he is on the decline n...

Re: 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread
Perez is just hopeless at the moment. Or is it an archivement just getting into q3? I really hope the team don't keep using his P2 in the standings as reasoning behind keeping him next year. He just keeps failing to get good results in qualifying in the race.

Re: 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread
Hamilton has said he likes it when there’s not many practice sessions during the weekend (like this weekend and sprint weekend). He never actually seems to do very well when there’s a lack of practice. I think he definitely needs all three practice sessions to maximise the pace of the car in qualif...

Re: 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix Race Thread
I thought there would never be a stage of the season that over a fair chunk of races, Stroll has scored the same number of points as Alonso. Over the last 5, Stroll has scored 26 points. Alonso has also scored 26.

Re: Driver(s) of the day - 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix
Can't understand the quantity of votes for Perez. He drove way too close to Bottas and then had no room to steer away from him when Bottas had to slow before hitting alonso. I blame Perez for this as there were more drivers behind perez that will have hit him - if they hadn't kept a more sensible di...

Verstappen, Ocon and Stroll for me. Yes, I know giving it to the race winner is controversial.

That's how it is in racing s...

Something that hasn't been done since Kimi beat Michael to P2 in 2005. ;) I feel you may say this to just frustrate some others or do you actually think that Perez gettign P2 is a really good arch...

Not watched the race so no comment on any of that from me but I’ve just looked at the standings. Ferrari are only four points behind Mercedes again now.

Re: 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix Race Thread
i thought that incident between hamilton and piastri looked pretty one sided and to me hamilton didn't leave enough room and made both suffer. Maybe as hamilton took most of the negative impact from it, that's possibly why they took it no further.
