Re: Hamilton to Ferrari for 2025 Season
Hamilton has nothing left to prove. Most men would love to drive a Ferrari when they enter retirement, Hamilton gets to live that dream out. I think for Hamilton he doesn’t care if he wins, loses, draws at this point . For Ferrari I think this is a strange call, 5 years too late. this is lewis we t...

Re: Hamilton to Ferrari for 2025 Season
Reading through the thread I believe there's a lot of over-thinking going on. Dolomite has nailed it for me. Hamilton has decided it's almost time to retire and wants to live out his wish to drive for Ferrari in F1 before he retires. Nothing more, nothing less. Of course I could also be being incre...

Re: Winning Streaks in the Lewis Hamilton Era
But that last paragraph makes it pretty clear that you're not actually arguing from a neutral position. You're championing 'your driver' here, as you perceive everyone who argues against you to be doing. That's not the most intellectually honest approach itself. Bored of all the intellectual dishon...

Were they wrong? No. But I would imagine there's a difference between running your own race and wilfully ruining one of the title contenders' race. So something was a story, then became a non-story, until some remembered and it became a story again? How confusing... So why are you trying to find so...

No, I intend to wait and see if other members have a similar recollection, and whether that could provide further insight into having a racing end to the season. And note that I wrote "asked", and not your "should not". Meanwhile, I'm content to point out to you that in any SC situation, the driver...

Re: Winning Streaks in the Lewis Hamilton Era
So thats an article from 2015 when RB's golden run of 4 straight championships had recently come to an end & Merc had just won their 2nd championship. This was their time after 4 years of RB domination. Why would Merc want to share their technology after all they'd invested to finally get there ? L...

The marvellous stewards, didn't the FIA release a statement saying that procedures were not correctly followed. I don't think they ever did to be fair.

Re: 2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Thread
Ironic thing was Leclerc had to think of a strategy to help Ferrari get P2 in the WCC instead of the pit wall. Had he seen this masterclass from '21, he could've done something more or better. The idea to let Checo pass imo came a bit too late. I think 1 more lap would've gotten Checo third & Lecle...

Re: This Is Getting Ridiculous. Fillipe Massa is Looking At Legal Options Over 2008 F1 Title Outcome.
No, now has got nothing to do with it. It was always Hamilton's fault? Think Fiki meant to say "he", not "now". I can't see how AD'21 was Lewis' fault, except for him not defending the inside at the corner he got overtaken on. I suspect he was caught napping there by Verstappen; and good for Versta...

So it is okay for Ocon to mess up the preparation of Verstappen’s hot lap? Interesting take. :?: Verstappen was driving slow, Ocon overtook him.

Because Checo certainly did take him serious, and boy, did he deliver! ;) Lewis is not driving a car that should even be in contention for P2 this season. That's not ...
