First of all, I'm sorry I'll provide a Dutch link, because I can't find an English one for the life of me, but here goes: https://nl.motorsport.com/f1/news/redbull-ricciardo-gefrustreerd-houding-renault-gridstraf/3146727/ What's being said is that Renault refused to supply the parts Red Bull request...

This time they got away with it, but once again Mercedes lose all their collective sh*t when a vsc/sc is deployed. Major confusion if Lewis was supposed to pit, then Valtteri is called in anyway, no tires ready. Everyone looking at other people... So weird.

Llotyhy

Hamilton, Ericsson and Grosjean (for that insane run in the end that wasn't even televised). Would have voted for Hulk if given four votes.

Llotyhy

He tweets that he'll start last, so I think he'll be on the grid after all. They changed everything except the battery.

Llotyhy

Gasly will start from the pitlane.

If the Mercedes engine was like it was in '14 people will have a different perspective of Stroll.

You really believe that the difference in Williams' performance from 2014 to now is down to the Mercedes engine? :'D

Llotyhy

* Daniel to never beat Max again this season on pace in qualy (so excluding reliability, grid penalties and incidents).

* Charles Leclerc to get on the podium in an incident-rich Singapore.

* Vettel to be WDC with two races to go, so after Mexico already.

Llotyhy

Vettel - Huge overtake for the lead
Verstappen - Defensive move of the season
Hulkenberg - Winner of the B-race, did well to keep everyone behind on the hard tires.

Llotyhy

Russell is so impressive. Really want to see him in F1 soon.

Llotyhy

What is it with these people here desperately trying to prove that the Ferrari engine is better than the Mercedes engine while no one in the paddock is saying that?

Llotyhy

That would explain it. The difference was 4-5 tenths in each q session

Llotyhy

Did Ricciardo have a problem? It's almost embarrassing how much quicker Verstappen is than him.

Llotyhy

Sauber looking better every weekend. It wouldn't even be unthinkable for Leclerc to qualy in 7th.

Llotyhy

It's so bumpy that it's hard to watch the onboards.

Llotyhy

Verstappen is the main man for Red Bull. He's getting paid more than Ricciardo as Red Bull value him higher. One thing about this: I'm pretty sure that up until now, including this season, he's being paid less than Ricciardo and now only in his new contract for next year has been able to raise his ...

Llotyhy

Still, Leclerc finished ahead. A lot of good passes.

Llotyhy

This aged well.

Llotyhy

Verstappen, Grosjean and Leclerc

Llotyhy

Marca are saying Alonso will continue in F1 at either McLaren or Renault. Yeah I've heard that, Renault are a team on the up and are a works team, Alonso also won both his titles with Renault, I think they are best placed to be the 4th best team in F1, I think I would go with Renault more than McLa...

Llotyhy

Russell from P8 to P3 in just over three laps and now up to second. Awesome drive again.

Llotyhy

Why would Renault hire Alonso exactly? They have said on multiple occasions they're happy with their current drivers and want to keep them. Teams say all sorts. They'll weigh up whether they can be competitive enough to keep him happy and if they think they can with him in the car then of course th...

Llotyhy

Did anybody notice Niki and Toto a bit disappointed when they crossed for pole. Happy they got pole with fists up but not exactly celebtrating Yes, I really did wonder why. Bottas's wife was obviously thrilled. But Lauder and Toto just had a frown on their face and looked almost looked disapointed ...

Really doesn't looks like Max being immature or unlikable to me...

Llotyhy

I doubt Mercedes will let Ocon go to be honest. He's their Verstappen/Leclerc. I can see McLaren trying for Perez again though, if it doesn't work out with Ricciardo... which would free up the spot for Russell at Force India.

Llotyhy

Sorry, forgot. Dutch motorsport.com. Not sure if it's anywhere else.

Llotyhy

Gasly confirmed for Toro Rosso 2019. Hartley will complete this season. No word about 2019. Means Sainz is still the guy who will replace Ricciardo should he go somewhere else.

Llotyhy

Reading reports that the Leclerc to Ferrari contract has been signed for two years. 2 million first season, 3 million second one. Will be announced in Monza.

No real trustworthy sources so far though, but the rumors are gaining momentum.

Llotyhy

Is Gasly really that much faster than Hartley? Or do you guys think STR is running one higher performance car? If both cars are equal, they're missing out on a second driver able to score points. Hartley is driving the car with all the updates this weekend, Gasly is in the old spec. Either the new ...

Llotyhy

I've been trying to think of ways this silly season could still actually be interesting. Most of them seem to revolve around Alonso and Sainz. For example, if Alonso decides to leave McLaren but doesn't want to finish his F1 career just yet, maybe he takes Sainz' seat at Renault and Sainz ends up b...

Llotyhy

I see 0% of McLaren keeping both their current drivers. Also, I really wouldn't be surprised by changes at Toro Rosso. It's not over yet.

Llotyhy

So don't know what to make of this latest interview with Boullier. He's basically said that McLaren can forget about winning titles, not unless some other engine manufacturer appears on the scene. Not exactly from the text book of motivational speeches :? “I think Christian [Horner, Red Bull team p...

Llotyhy

Racing incident.

Llotyhy

With Grosjean on zero points to his team-mate's 27, it's surprising there's not more talk of Leclerc going to Haas in 2019. Ferrari is a bold bet, but a Ferrari customer team would be a step up from Sauber without risking an unknown quantity in a top seat. Why would Ferrari do that? Alfa Romeo Saub...

Llotyhy

What happened to the people claiming you can't overtake here?

Llotyhy

Charles, I'm a little bit in love.

Llotyhy

Lots and lots of it. Why do we never have this on sundays?

Llotyhy

Max was in his 2nd season of formula racing, Sainz in his 6th. (1) Someone like Lewis Hamilton did seven years of formula racing before he arrived in F1 . Max is still not as experienced as most drivers are when they arrive in F1. I have no doubt whatsoever that Max would absolutely obliterate Sain...

Llotyhy

Sainz is in his 4th season and he's getting beat by the Hulk, would he still be in people's top 10 drivers? Not right now, no. I expected him to at least match Hulk; my opinion of him has gone down as a result of what so far seems a pretty comprehensive beating. On a side note, if you believe in A>...
