Interesting piece on Sid Watkins the doctor behind all the safety changes in F1 in that era, and the one who tried to save both Ratzenberger and Senna.
Sid was great. You should read his book.
Good stuff from CLC and Ricciardo in spring qualifying. Weird how the McLaren performance dropped on softs. Horror show from Merc again.
The SC obviously helped coming when it did but Lando was the quickest driver all day. Thoroughly deserved win and so happy for him.
He was brilliant. Been very quick all weekend too. Felt sorry for Oscar, he could have had a great result too if Sainz hadn't gone mad.
Chuffed for Lando, I really am. Hopefully they can take the fight now to RBR along with Ferrari.
I see Magnussen is one incident away from a race ban, having picked up 5 penalty points over the weekend. Drove like a lunatic in both the sprint and the race.
World number 1 Scottie Scheffler has been arrested by police as he was trying to enter Valhalla golf club for the 2nd round of the US PGA Championship!
He's been charged with:
- Second degree assault of a police officer
- Third degree criminal mischief
- Reckless driving
- Disregarding traffic signals from an officer directing traffic
It's Scheffler, he will still find a way to winGlad I never bet on him now...
And it should have been unanimous. He was well beaten last night. Great fight though.
