I don't see fighting for 5th place in the race as anything that would set me on fire.

Someone on reddit went through the trouble of editing lots of pictures to get rid of the blue/red run offs and replace it with grass and gravel traps. Looks so much better. God knows how the drivers don't get distracted and take a wrong turn! (though I guess that's why they're paid the big bucks an...

I was hoping.... but F1 missed another chance to listen to drivers and fans. https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/fia-open-to-dropping-paul-ricard-chicane-for-2019-1047502/3129286/ It was like, "good, we will consider removing chicane for 2019, it is too late now", and in the meantime they just did no...

Lt. Drebin

I don't know guys how much you follow the social media but F1 is immensely ridiculed right now on the different platforms because of this farcical Vettel penalty.

Lt. Drebin

Option 3 is the only sensible one for me. Seems harsh but it's the stewards sticking to the rules. He has no one to blame but himself, unfortunately. Indeed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOT134F0jKU They viewed it that after fully gaining control of his car Vettel opened the steering twice in ord...

Lt. Drebin

The judges forgot the main rule in court, and the main starting point of all fair judgement - presumption of innocence. They in fact did not prove any illegal intent by Vettel. They just applied the rule to what they thought to be the truth. Poor judgement.

Lt. Drebin

Three options available.

Lt. Drebin

Hamilton: "I forced him into error". What a joke. Is that not what happened? Lewis should not rub salt into it, specially as Vettel showed class in asking crowd not to boo him In fact, it was Lewis who asked for penalty. And then, when Vettel approaches and asks, "where should I go", Lewis just ans...

Whatever you think of the penalty, what Hamilton has said there is correct

He was not that close to claim that.

Lt. Drebin

Absolutely disgusted by the stewarding. They are killing the sport. No congrats to Hamilton.

Lt. Drebin

Grande Vettel, the champion is back. The start and the first curve will be crucial in the race.
Special congrats to Ricciardo as well as Gasly who is up there. Yes, also to Norris for beating Sainz.

Lt. Drebin

Zero chances of rain. Just checked it.

Lt. Drebin

Excellent driver, top class 1976-1978. Had about three strong years in F1 which for the time was more than enough. His 1978 year was dominating and that's where he sealed his reputation. The next 1979 was a backwards year as Lotus made a big miscalculation with their car. The 1980 year literally ki...

Lt. Drebin

I'm really literally sorry guys.

Words change their meaning over time. Good that Mario is still with us.

Lt. Drebin

Throw the current rule book in the fire. Get the one from 1978, add the safety features and that's it. Current F1 rule book looks like a nazi constitution.

Lt. Drebin

The one that drives Mercedes.

Lt. Drebin

I don't think that this is radical, but can't they have two lanes in the box, where the outer one is obliged to be used unless is occupied? Then, we would see no unsafe release anymore and bingo-bangs in the box. In tracks like Monaco, how would they implement this? Also, how would it work? Who wil...

There you go guys. Knock yourselves out! I didn't think it was that bad; but I'm a fan. Seems the irate 'blue flags!' were for entry into Portier. He had to take a wider line into that corner to gap Max through the tunnel; but with a slower car in front he had to take a shallower line to cover Max ...

Lt. Drebin

Didn't vote for Hamilton, despite his magnanimous driving effort, because he was publicly scolding the team and holding a speech to them, when nothing really wrong was happening, and team was right that it will go to the end. Spoiled toddler or what.

Voted for Kubica for being 15th at one moment.

Lt. Drebin

That Mercedes is a monster. Pulling away from a car with DSR and better tyres is just unreal.

At the middle of the season 2019, Ferrari went the wrong way with development and they lost the championship. Sacking Arrivabene was a knee jerk reaction. Now, that Ferrari became a circus maximus, it pays even bigger price for that mistake. It needs to reset and start from scratch.

Lt. Drebin

Looks like Charles lost the time because he did not go to scale immediately.

I have heard often that Indycar as series, and drivers therein are on a much lower level than F1. Turns out that racing is a science, no matter on which side of the ocean it is. I'm not sure that you can blame Alonso for what happened, even in a spec series it seems the team can make a difference:-...

Lt. Drebin

There's one thing about Nikki that I'm curious about. I wonder if there are any old-timers in here who can comment on 1984 (kidding - you don't have to be that old to remember that). I didn't start following F1 until the late 80s and didn't see that season myself. Everyone just says Lauda was lucky...

He was more than a driver, he was F1. His comeback story is one of the most remarkable stories in the history of sports. To hell and back to first place. Such a sad day, big loss. I was fortunate enough to watch on TV some some of his races, including the last victory in 1985.

Go anybody except the silver arrows!

Stroll is not that bad as many think . He has one major weakness tough: qualifying. In races he was so far quite solid, even surprisingly well at times. Ocon would be a good second driver at RBR with Verstappen, was it not for his fishy move on him in Brazil 2018. To Kubica, I really wish that he m...

Lt. Drebin

It just goes to show that having two top-class drivers is NOT the best way to win championships. Always better to have one be clearly faster than the other so they don't trip over each other. Completely agree. Because of two strong drivers Williams lost in 1981 and 1986. Mclaren and possibly Renaul...

F1 is in its biggest crisis since beginning. The current technological breakthroughs make the fair racing impossible. The team with biggest budget, attracting best engineers, would have best technology and best car. It sucks. I am afraid that the only solution to make the grid more even is to have ...
