  1. Sounds like January has already passed Mitchell on the depth chart. January looks to be a good one, but that does not bode well for Mitchell's future that an early enrollee has already moved past him.
  2. For the first couple races.
  3. The problem there was Alonso lifted early and George was going to run in to the back of him so he swerved and ended up bouncing off the wall. If it happened in a corner that was wider or had a run off, it wouldn't have been an issue because he would have had room to maneuver which is probably why Alonso picked that turn to do it in.
  4. There is something about the design of their rear axle and wheel nuts that causes the wheel nuts to cross thread almost every time they change tires. It's so bad that they go slow on purpose during pit stops and still have issues on both cars.
  5. It sounds like Baker is looking real good already also.
  6. Also about the only place where cabs are reliable.
  7. Seriously, how did they not catch that before the season? Did they never practice pit stops or something?
  8. He said brake tested or some-such that is the Brit equivalent is for a brake check.
  9. This was one of the strangest movies I've ever seen and also very good. Interesting flick and Emma Stone most definitely deserved her Oscar.
  10. He had to come up with some kind of excuse. I'm sure his story will evolve. Brundle nailed it when he said that he brake checked Russell.
  11. Ha, Sam had no clue what he was saying. I've never had trouble understanding him, but his accent must make it hard for anyone who isn't a native English speaker.
  12. I think Leclerc is generally better at qualifying, but during races Sainz has the edge on pace and isn't as prone to the brain farts that Leclerc has. Wherever he ends up, I hope he manages to find a spot on one of the top teams. He's good enough that he needs to be in a competitive car.
  13. Alonso was hoping to make Russell lock up on the last lap so that he couldn't pass him. He let off 100m earlier than normal going in to that turn. Given that there was no room to run off or go 2 wide, it was a really dangerous spot to do it. That penalty is among the steepest I can remember being given out recently and I think it was warranted. It took Sainz a good minute to get himself out of the car after the race. It's clear he's still pretty sore and makes his race that much more impressive.
  14. Given her response, it's likely real bad.
  15. Also, that penalty for Alonso seems appropriate. That was a dangerous move.
  16. Never noticed that, but he does have some chicken legs. Not ideal for a DL.
  17. When a reporter you don't know is desperate for an interview, it would raise some red flags amongst the Manning's about what kind of article he wants to write. The last thing they want is for some jackass to try to gin up some kind of bullshit when they are happy with Arch's situation.
  18. Me thinks Ferrari is letting the wrong driver go.
  19. Teddy Roosevelt's first wife and his mom died on the same night of separate illnesses.
  20. They are a prototypical Barnes team. Big, athletic, good defense and not so great at shooting.
  21. He's also undersized and not very quick. He's overmatched against big and athletic guards like the Vols have.
  22. Jake might get Wally Pipp'ed.
  23. His last lap would have made Q2, but it got deleted.
  24. The downside of announcing you are leaving before the season starts. Mercedes has shifted the team's focus to Russell.
