Why are they flashing the lights when driving behind someone? Are they trying to signal the car in front to move over? Aren't they supposed to just make a move for the overtake?

Max seemed already agitated in today's press conference. Seeing his comments, I think Red Bull has to do something since the situation doesn't seem to be fixing itself. I mean, I do acknowledge the huge talent the guy has, but I've never seen anyone in this sport to get that much leeway simply just ...

I think this was one of the most undeserving win of the recent years. Nothing against the driver, it's just that anyone from Vettel, Bottas, Raikkonen or Perez drove a much better race than Hamilton this time. I think Lewis also knows this so I wouldn't say the monkey is completely out of the back,...

It's goin to be interesting to see how Red Bull will handle this. If they protect Max, it could affect Dan's decision to where he'd like to drive next year.

On this weekend's Paddock Pass program (available in the official F1 Youtube channel), Dan says he is not yet talking with anyone else other than Red Bull and that no other teams have approached him yet . I find this quite odd, as I would've expected Mercedes or Ferrari to at least have approached ...

All of the above are applicable to every driver on the grid. Have they all moved heaven and earth and sold their souls away? There was a lot that went on at Mercedes that was exhausting, simply because the car was so good both drivers needed to look for every possible advantage to beat the other, a...

Basically they set a precedent, that you can knock another car out and get away with just a 10 second penalty. Such scenario could come in handy many times, especially when a championship is on the line later on.

Yeah, clearly he is such a terrible human being and so much slower than Vettel.

Kimi faster than Seb? Surely not possible so must be something wrong in the car.

I don't understand why all the controversy and interrogation if Merc used the party mode or not. As long as their engines and engine modes adhere to the regulations, they can use whatever mode they want and they don't even have to tell us anything about it.

IDrinkYourMilkshake wrote:Mercedes should be looking at Ricciardo now, I hope.

Because of one crash, really? As you yourself said, Bottas would've been there without the qualifying mistake, so why change if that's what's needed. It's not like he crashes out often. I don't even remember the last time.

At least it doesn't feature any V10 or V8 era engine sounds (I think). I find it vaguely amusing how many sponsors and advertisements still use those old engine sounds even though they (sadly) haven't had anything to do with F1 for almost 5 years now. But yeah, I think the new theme song sounds some...

If you want to look at it positively, they seem to already be on better shape starting the season on their first time with Renault, than they were last year after two years of experience with Honda.

Looks awesome. Team Mittpond joining in!

I'm having doubts, for the first time, at the competency of McLaren. Honda suddenly doing 70, 80+ laps a day, and McLaren not even touching 40 today, when there was no freak wheel nut failure... Or maybe Honda have finally got their act together, who knows. If it so happens that Honda PU outperform...

So remind me why testing takes place in Barcelona at the end of winter again? 968474943867539456 Doesn't it have something to do with the logistics chain being simpler to handle as most teams have their factory or HQ is Europe so they can transport new parts and bits more quickly in case something ...

Bottas beating Hamilton in a straight fight all weekend. A total knockout. Impressive.

Force Majeure.

Honda is improving ( again ) as shown this weekend and the last, Yes their reliability still isn't great but the speed differential is a lot closer than at the start of the season. I actually believe that right now the 2017 Honda PU is probably as fast than the 2016 Ferrari. As much as Honda COULD ...

Adjusted for the advantage Lewis had when coming into this season, with Bottas only joining the team on the last minute, he has already been performing on a exceptionally high level and will only get better over time. I don't think anybody even expected him to beat Hamilton this year, but on some oc...

It's within the margin that the sensors allow so it's fine. You can call it a jump start if you want to, but since anybody allowed to move within that margin, he obviously did nothing wrong. He was able to take the maximum advantage of the start and I think should be applauded for that.

1997 MSC gets DSQ from the whole championship for using his car as a weapon. 2017 Vettel does the same and the result is a stop-and-go penalty.
Consistent penalties?

Wasn't this originally Vettel's idea after 2015 Australia GP in the press conference.

What Mercedes needs to do is build a car that is reliable for Hamilton. His big issue in the quest for the title at this moment seams to be rather two-fold: 1. Ferrari is competitive 2. His new teammate is competitive. This is an oversimplification but it is essentially true. Hamilton must rise to ...

Bottas' weekend and even his 3 race career is exactly like Heikki's, strong over 1 lap and able to match/better Hamilton about 1/3 of the time but come race day miles off. Yeah right, miles off. Valtteri was there or thereabouts already in Melbourne. In his 1st race with Merc. Now he's starting to ...

I knew Bottas is fast, but he is this much faster than Hamilton?

Vettel being in the equal second best car is your version of him being in a midfield car? Horner's references to 2014 was about Vettel not enjoying driving the car, he was clearly struggling, but your version is that he simply wasn't trying. Oh, do try and read properly, for goodness sake. I said e...

I just hope nothing bad happens because it just doesnt feel right that hes back there after he was so ceremoniously sent off. I wonder if they didn't have any other viable option.

For Massa this is a "why not" situation. You never know where Williams will stack up when the rules are being reset, so he might as well see it through. It's not like he has anything to lose or prove at this point.
For Williams it's a horrible mistake.

I don't believe their package to have been any better than what Williams had during that time, so no.
