I'd prefer it to fanboost too and to be honest as long as f1 remains 'proper' (as much as it can with DRS and tyre regs), I'm happy to have a gimmick.like this in Fe. I watch Fe for a number of reasons, one of which is that it is purely entertaining! I can understand that it will make it different t...

On a slightly related topic to the thread - From the video posted on formula e's YouTube channel of Nico driving the gen 2 car in Berlin, in his interview after the drive, he seemed fairly adamant that he wasn't going to be driving for Mercedes in Fe in 2 years time. Couldn't tell if it all smoke an...

I just hope he doesn't do as bad as Villeneuve or Trulli did, or even Heidfeld. From all the ex F1 drivers to compete in Fe, the older ones haven't faired overly well. If that's down to actual driving talent or possibly getting a little older I don't know, but even if Fe isn't as physically demandi...

Nice to see they've made different services for those of us who can't watch live (or even replays, thanks Sky!).

You really can't blame SC or VSC for what may appear to be a lottery finish. If you're doing that, you may as well simply blame drivers for crashing or maybe for attempting to actually race! If the safety car was used today for example, we have had next to no finishers at all. Just look at what happ...

We'll if it makes you feel any better, Perez is my favourite driver on the grid since JB retired and I feel the same.

I'd love to see him jump into the Ferrari seat when Kimi finally retires. But sadly, I think that's doubtful.

minchy

Come on Perez, hold it together! My heart is in my mouth!

minchy

Perez, Vettel is gonna be close

Podium for FI?

Remembering Biannchi, if someone had an issue like grosjean near the back of that truck, that is dangerous.

Let's look at the positives of this, Williams are almost guaranteed some points finally

minchy

Hope they move that quickly and get a few laps racing still.

At least it'll quiet the conspiracy theorists about Haas helping Ferrari in Oz now. That really didn't help Ferrari at all then.

Oh....... My........ God!!!!!!

Just curious if Titanium is posting from the wrong account?

minchy

I seen a couple of his vids before, they're quite good really, a lot better than most of the vlogging vids out there. I could be wrong, but I'm sure I've seen him doing a vid where he explains how many people are working behind the camera for him to make his content. Not taking anything away from hi...

Guys. (and ladies). I now have F1 race coverage with no commercial breaks and listen to Brundle rather than Hobbs (still trying to figure out why Americans liked the guy outside of potential nostalgia). I didn't necessarily dislike Speed or NBC, but I do miss Steve Matchett commentating. but F1 vie...

minchy

I feel shocked that you haven't included Honda in the poll

minchy

Why should we need to give Kimi the benefit or the doubt when he did nothing wrong? We don't know what he has done or said to the mechanic off the TV and he's not exactly know for his emotional personality, so what did people expect him to say or look like in interviews? This is just people who look...

minchy

I don't think you're giving Bottas enough credit for his drive last week. Yes, he couldn't make the pass on the 1 lap he had the chance to, but until 10 laps to go when he started pushing he was driving to his given delta fully expecting Vettel to have to pit again. Mercedes strategy was sound for t...

minchy

No pre-race or post race coverage. Boring commentary and no interviews from the pits. Also, how come we hear so much from Hamilton's radio and so little from everyone else. This type of coverage is certainly not going to increase F1's popularity in the USA. :thumbdown: We had pre-race "On the Grid"...

Gasly, Ericsson, Vettel, Magnussen, Alonso Disappointing: - Ferrari! How can you release a car when a mechanic still is standing in front of (!) the wheel? That should yield a really hefty penalty - not just some laughable monetary fine. - Verstappen - Bottas - Williams' drivers It really is odd th...

minchy

Couple of laps more and Bottas had Seb... To be honest he should have had him anyway. Hamilton would have made that move stick IMO. Max, ALO, RIC, HAM all make that move on the last lap. Bottas bottled that, and Merc will remember it. Strong drive from Vettel, fair play to him. Very watchable race ...

minchy

With 5 laps to go, Bottas was lapping 134.6, Seb was 135.6, with a three second gap. Bottas should have had DRS for at least two laps. For last two laps, Bottas was lapping 136s, and barely getting DRS. Bottas choked, doesn't know how to pass or doesn't have the killer instinct, or all three. Botta...

Just confirmed on C4 - broken lower leg for the mechanic.

. Congratulations to Vettel for an amazing win, BUT Vettel should be very, very harshly fined for the accident with the mechanic (and unsafe release). In addition, after today and last week's incident, the FIA should look at every team's tyre change and release procedures and ensure they are as saf...

Don't know how anyone can't vote for Vettel and Gasly.

Without retirements, Gasly would probably have finished 7th, but still a great drive. And Vettel managing to finish on those sorts was incredible.

Got to think that Vettel's lack of grip on old tyres will negate any disadvantage of the dirty air on Bottas.

minchy

Have to wonder if Ferrari were forced into this strategy with Vettel due to the medical care needed for their mechanic taking up the pit lane during the pit window for him?

minchy

I don't wish bad luck to the top 3, but I'd love to see one of them have a tyre issue and Gasly get a podium!!!

STR race pace has been very good so far, going to bag 4th. Can't argue with that, they spanked Macca here. Gasly driver of the day if he bags P4 He's had a fairly quiet race really, just driving round by himself! Got given 2 places from Ricciado and Kimi's retirements. He's done a good job, but Vet...

Alonso had to pit from his mediums, looking like Mercedes will have to before the end of the race now too.

Did look like it was pulled under the tyre whilst his upper body went over it. But from how he hit the ground, it's a good job the mechanics all wear helmets.
