So the question I ask is this. Hypothetically, lets say Makino's car survived the impact with nothing more than a damaged Halo & a few scratches to the body work and was able to carry on racing as normal. Would Makino have been shown the black & orange flag, been forced to come into the pits and ret...

Isn't that just a virtual safety car? not if only the lead car drives to a delta. It effectively becomes the SC. The rest will catch up to him as per normal SC conditions and then follow behind. Point is the delta could be a little quicker than the current SC manages. SC Driver can be trusted to ru...

Agree with all of the aove. Cataluyna's a dump for producing exciting racing. Motorland Aragón Jerez Not sure if they are grade 1 though. Surely either track would be better then Catalunya. They're both grade 1 tracks but I'm not convinced Jerez would be an improvement. Aragon could be ok. If rumour...

It seems to me Liberty have gone to Sky because they are the only ones left standing I think the US has lost its bespoke coverage and Australia has used the UK commentators, well, for ever really . If i'm wrong about that let me know I can't see Sky changing their British 'patriotic' message any ti...

Horner on the changes for next year: "The regulations have been rushed through, a lot of them are in conflict with existing regulations, so there's going to be a meeting on Sunday to tidy it up, whether that's achievable or not. "The problem is that it's very immature research, it's focused on 2021...

For me the biggest issue on sunday was the low loader on the track whilst the cars will still going round. Granted, at lower speeds, but they can still go off (As Grosjean fantastically demonstrated) Have they learned nothing?? There should be zero chance of an F1 car and that truck coming into con...

"when, and to where, will the Ricciardo move take place?" How is that not the same topic? These 2 threads should be merged. There's a Silly Season 2019 as well. Yeah i've no drama merging this with the other Ric thread. I did forget about that one and only quickly scanned the first page so must hav...

So with a lot of talk revolving around Ricciardo's contract, or at the moment lack of, for next year, and a lot of it finding it's way into a few threads, I thought I start a thread and a poll dedicated to the topic. So, where will Ric be in 2019? My opinion ? As the cards lie at the moment? I can s...

I can suggest a couple of races in the middle east plus one or two more that I'd prefer to see gone before they look at Baku. There's only two races in the Middle East, and one of them is almost always good. Cut Abu Dhabi if you want, but you'd have a hard time replacing Bahrain with an equally goo...

And while this is great news, I think they need to revisit the layout from the early 2000’s because it was much better than this proposed square layout. Eh, I like the squares. Kinda reminds me of Adelaide. Zolder in the city. Layout looks horribly boring. Straight, 90° turn, straight, 90° turn, ya...

Pretty hard to beat binning it following the safety car and then trying to blame the car behind when it was miles away i'd reckon.

I was surprised to read that Both Riciardo and Max has been reprimanded. I don't quite see what Riciardo's done wrong. I was expecting a very stern warning at the very least with a suspended race ban. To me, looking at reports of the stewards findings, they say " The stewards ruled that while Verst...

Maybe a bit tin foil hat but I wonder how close Verstappen is to a race ban and was Ricciardo instructed to take some of the heat, or maybe he did it of his own volition, in order to mitigate the risk of Verstappen copping that ban. I couldn't help but wonder about that myself. If so, it tells Ricc...

By the way, why did Verstappen got away with deliberately short-cutting the track? Letting Sainz go ahead for a split second was not seriously viewed to be handing a place, was it? Because he can apparently do no wrong? He nearly barged Ricciardo into the wall, too. I think he thinks he's karting, ...

What if the team mates are the main, or the only for that matter, contenders for the WDC?

Think Hamilton / Rosberg, Prost / Senna, Mansell / Piquet. Can you imagine any of those 6 saying "After you my good man",when approaching a corner side by side with the championship on the line?

Whilst I dont think you can hold Baku up as a race that they get a bit frivelous with the use of safety cars, I certainly wonder if it's going to be a temptation on some of the more.... sedate tracks, to throw VSC/SC for an incident that might not completely need it just to spice it up a bit. Its n...

Marko saying both Verstappen and Ricciardo at fault for accident and it's not in RB's DNA to issue team orders???

Um..... Multi 12 & 21 anyone??

Jezza13

So the question is when do RB and other teams start to look towards Verstappen as perhaps as much or more of a liability as an asset?

Verstappen caused 2 collisions with his team mate today, one could have ended either one or both their races, the other did.

Weaving(a few cm) like that happens all the time for the car in front. If he would do it a cars length that's another story. People are quick to jump that it's Max's fault just out of inertia. He did it in the braking zone, that's the problem and why you're not supposed to do it because that's exac...

Actually Ricciardo weaved too. If anything more than Max. Surprising I know, but still.

Pretty sure the following car can move as much as they want.

How many moves are you allowed again?

1. Ricciardo
2. Vettel

Be interesting to see how much, if anything, this further affects vision from out of the cockpit.
