Drivers shouldn't really need reminding that they aren't allowed to break the rules. Surely people can see the current situation where race control instruct the drivers which of the rules they will actually impose and where. Edit - I don't blame the drivers as much as I do the stewarding for the cu...

Is there always a meeting between race control and the drivers, every race weekend without fail? If so, why? I mean you don't get the referee of a football match, meeting with the two teams before the game to tell them about what rules are going to be applied for the match. Maybe by keeping some co...

As for Vettel, the rules said that you have to be in contact with the track or white line. Vettel wasnt , but was judged to be on track because in their opinion a bit of this tyre was hanging over the white line. Just for the sake of argument; do you remember the real reason Vettel's time was allow...

Of course they are pushing to get a better time, and occasionally they hit a barrier and get punished, occasionally they end up in the gravel, and occasionally then run wide and get punished by a loss of time. My point has always been why do you want to issue a time penalty or whatever to someone wh...

They just had the one corner were drivers had to return to the track in a specific way. So "no need to specify anything" = "free to roam outside the track"? Maybe? Whiting at least took the trouble occasional to explain certain track limits; and pointed out where there were no restrictions- usually...

Exactly. When a driver is a 6 time WDC and gets pole position, they are going to get far more TV coverage than the majority of other drivers so it's more likely we see laps of his. Actually Max got more air time on his last run, and I think every one of the top 4 was shown taking the last corner. A...

Enforce every white line. Imagine if we were having this argument about Tennis or Football. So remind us again how you enforce 5 plus miles of meandering white lines in all weathers? And if we take Q3 alone thats 20 corners x 10 drivers x 2 runs; so 400 events to investigate before we declare a top...

It's pretty staggering that some people are actually in favour of track limits not being enforced, otherwise what is the point of putting the white line markings in? If you leave the track for no good reason then there should be a penalty for this. Its pretty staggering that people want to spend un...

Pretty sure that his pole lap was mentioned as an example, most likely because it would be the e replayed during coverage. He wasn't specifically targeted.

I just watched the pole lap again, and Hamilton was off-track in the final corner. Whether others remain on-track for their runs deliberately or inadvertently, it does penalize them if transgressions aren't tackled. If both of Hamilton's laps were off-track, then he shouldn't be starting from pole ...

As Mercedes have been the dominant team of the decade I think they should have the veto for the next decade. And then they hand the veto banner over to whoever dominates for the next decade. Not that I agree with the veto belonging to one team, it would be just be interesting to hear what Ferrari su...

How can they let drivers to so wide at the last turn? Hamilton went way off. No track limits or deleting times here? Was Hamilton the only one? No loads, esp the RB that has done it on just about every run. Maybe Hogweed only noticed Ham? I didn't only notice one. He was just an example. verstappen...

Is there any chance the list is just made up to include the best candidates, regardless of race? I don't know much about them, but am curious when race percentages are brought into an equation.

Improbable statistically, but not historically. After all the whole point of the British Empire was to get as much hot and spicy foods and Olympic quality athletes as we could; before we gave all their countries back.

A lot of riders are gunning for that seat in 2021. As something of a MotoGP outsider (I sort of follow the sport, but not nearly to the extent I do F1) I have to ask why?

Well, there are reasons given here as to why Hamilton was not instructed to pit after his damage compared to when Leclerc was in Japan: https://www.racefans.net/2019/11/21/racefans-round-up-21-11-2/ But the quotes from Michael Masi saying there was "nothing" hanging off that wing is a total joke.

Some quite interesting choices. I would have thought the obvious first driver to pick would be Hamilton.

For me personally… As many guys as possible!
