I don't know Max is beside Kimi but directly behind Seb. Could go either way.

Valtteri will be on the clean line & Seb not so much.

This would probably end up as shades of the 2005 US Grand Prix where all but six of the cars pulled into the pits at the end of the formation lap and refused to race. The culprit in that case was tires that would not handle one of the turns on the Indy oval. Running turn one backwards was causing ti...

Even though Bottas has got pole, I don't think he's a match for Vettel. Bottas & Raikkonen could have a good scrap. Yeah my money is on Seb winning this easily. Val should be good enough to see off Kimi though. If he survives turn 1, my money is on Vettel too Question is whether Seb will be challen...

Certainly solves the problem of whether Lewis would want to back off and give Valtteri P1.

IMO many replies to this post are from the perspective of devoted fans. But as I mentioned in another post, Mercedes spend over 350 million to look good. Not Lewis Hamilton, but rather Mercedes. And since for Mercedes this is basically an exercise in advertising, a clean sweep of the WCC, and both ...

Another option than what's presented in the poll, Lewis may gift the win to Valtteri on his own if the right situation presents itself. Hopefully not as blatantly as M. Schumacher did for Ruebens Barichello in the 2002 US Gran Prix.

Just hope that if Lewis does let Valtteri through he does not do it like Michael let Ruebens through in the 2002 US GP. Handing over the win right at the line sort of spit in the eye of all of the fans.

Hamilton is already on his final warning after his antics in the final race of last season. If they order him to help Val, he'll help Val. That is, unless he wants to join Fernando at the back of the grid from next year. :lol: Final warning I think that went out the window the day Nico resigned. Ha...

I would like to see what Robert Kubica could do in the current generation of Williams. If Williams doesn't have faith in Kubica's abiltiy to deliver then Paul Di Resta makes the most sense to me.

For me the most memorable F1 seasons were 1989 and 1990. You knew that you were watching two of the all time greats battling for supremacy. I didn't much like the outcomes of the two Japanese Grands Prix that settled both championships, but the season long battles were magnificent. The current caree...

Who will have the longer career? ...or is the question "Who will have the longer productive career?" Not very many great drivers retire on top. There is usually a slow slide to mediocrity. Hamilton's performance seems to much more reflect his current level of enthusiasm. Vettel's performance seems ...

All the metrics seem to point to Hamilton's career as besting Vettel by the end.

Vettel is two years younger and theoretically has two more years than Hamilton remaining but by the time he is ready to retire Verstappen or another young gun will be at the peak of his powers.

Hello folks,
May I have my account approved please?

Thank You!

With Massa retiring, do we now have a new game of musical chairs??? We know that Lance Stroll is on a pay to play contract for the second Williams seat and now the first seat seems to be empty. So who is going to fill that seat and where will they come from??? Who are the candidates?

I am not in favor of the one proposal to use "Standardized Parts" for some of the engine and powertrain. This is not NASCAR. Formula one should not be a "spec car".
