Re: 2017 Italian Grand Prix Race Thread
Finding F1 stats online is usually quite easy, but weirdly finding a list of the fastest F1 races in history is proving really difficult - this was 70 seconds slower than the record, but the Mercs were coasting for the final 2/3rds of the race - I'm curious where it slots in (is it in the top 10?),...

Re: 2017 Italian Grand Prix Race Thread
So Lauda is aware of the significance of a three point lead in light of Hungary. Isn't it a net gain of six points and isn't that compared with an initial loss of six to Valtteri?
[edit] I mean, Hamilton should be six points ahead now and instead it's only three.

Vettel needed to find a way up the inside of Hamilton after Eau Rouge on the restart. There's no point taking it down the outside there. One chance, not taken. Big disappointment.

Watford's equaliser for 3-3 can't have been offside.

I'd like to bet that Massa in a Ferrari could have got Hamilton a penalty today. I will never understand how anyone could have thought that Alonso's Monza penalty was fair or just but if it was a penalty in the eyes of the FIA, surely they must have thought Hamilton affected Grosjean's lap today?
