  1. Poor George, patiently waited in the wings while Merc was going NLAA on everyone. Finally gets in the car and it's a shitbox. Did get him a race win though.

    It'll be pretty tough for Mercedes to climb back to the top, that Red Bull train is rolling pretty hard. Red Bull was kicking everyone's ass with Vettel, then had some down times and is back on top. So it is doable, helps to have the best car designer/aerodynamicst ever on staff though.

    @texas08 I like Gasly too. Seems like a good dude and hungry, like you said. I don't really have any team allegiance, just like drivers that don't seem like total asshats.

  2. Figure out the best way of allowing teams to "catch up". There is more wind tunnel time for slower teams right? Why not more on track testing? The brand is better when one team isn't running off into the sunset every race.

  3. He was probably already a lock for best ever, but Adrian fuckin Newey. Jesus that guy is good.

    Add a great driver and solid, reliable power unit and his cars are unstoppable. Sucks that this year looks to be a lock for Max already.

    I will keep watching for that juicy midfield battle and hope for the odd Red Bull double retirement gifting Fernando a win.

  4. I used to watch in the before times on Speed TV, Speedvision, etc. F1 with commercials and Leigh Diffey suuuuucked ass. Matchett explaining everthing like we were 5 every race was pretty annoying though I did like David Hobbs (I know Wood hated him lol). As long as they keep Sky, Brundle and no commercials I'll be a happy camper.

  5. Jeez, what is it with drivers and cycling accidents?? Lance, Alonso and Webber all had off season incidents on bikes.

    Then you have Nicky Hayden RIP, Alex Zanardi (almost dying again) and Bob Wolleck RIP. There are probably others, those are the ones off the top of my head.

    All Black belongs on a pitch in New Zealand, not on a Formula 1 car.

    Your comment made me think of this badass Porsche Bathurst New Zealand livery.

  7. I don't think I'd want to be a full time commentator if I was an F1 WDC. Here and there, sure.

    I guess Damon Hill is in the mix sometimes down in the paddock. Not sure if he's there every weekend.

    A Verstappen grandstand in Spain? Am I missing something?

    Cashing in on the Dutch fans who travel well, while at the same time keeping them all in one grandstand so the rest of the fans don't have to be around them. lol

  9. I have an EV for daily commuting that I love. That is what they excel at, being city cars. This long distance shit ain't in their wheelhouse. But yeah, another thread.

    Y'all are some knowledgeable sumbitches though.
