Huzzah! The sweet taste of champagne! Boy am I glad to get that podium ticked off. Nice to see I've risen 3 spots too! To be honest, I didn't think it was a huge risk to put faith in Bottas. He's always been good around Canada, the Williams has run close-ish to the front in comparison to other circu...

#14 Exediron vs #19 theferret Could be worse, considering how I've been doing this year. I still feel I'm out of place - so bring it, theferret!

Rubens only ever won in 3 consecutive seasons. Andretti also only managed 3.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, DC managed to win in an impressive 7 consecutive seasons! 1997-2003. If he'd managed to overtake Panis at the 1996 Monaco GP, it would have been 9!

I remember back in 2014 when Alonso was announced at Mclaren, there were rumors about Button going to WEC. Maybe he might go this year if Vandoorne gets the seat for 2017. I also heard somewhere that Palmer might not see the end of the season at Renault. I can't find where i read it but it was befo...

Thanks for posting this video, looks like it may be a decent track.

Seems to have done ok this year to date, Monaco an exception Not in comparison to his teammate. Rookies very rarely beat team mates more experienced than them. Look at the current grid and see how few have done it. It's pretty unreasonable to expect Palmer to beat Magnussen unless you expect him to...

Nasr seems to have a sense of entitlement, I pay the bills so will do what I please, whilst what Ericsson did in response was just idiotic but he also pays the bills, they are both pay drivers and that's why they are in F1 as far as I'm concerned, just an unfortunate situation Sauber find themselve...

Agree completely.

The direction was pretty poor during VSCs but it looked like Nato lost time on every single one of them. I wonder if it's more that he wasn't driving fast enough?

I sometimes think the layout of Red Bull Ring is too simple, and lack of variation. Who agrees with me? Disagree. It's certainly short, and looks simple as a track map, but the corners are all rather different challenges to one another - Turn 1 is uphill braking, compared to turn 2 which is not, an...

It's really fishy, after Spa 2014, he was quick to accuse Rosberg, together with Lauda, with Rosberg not even getting a chance to speak first.

K-mag took one for the team, Palmer should have been penalised. His final lap was 1.8-2.0 seconds faster than his previous laps due to cutting the final chicane.
