    Talking of massive track invasions, I was at Silverstone '92. That was a day to remember. Yes I was one of the lunatics on the track.:)

    Obviously a complete coincidence that Red Bull's performance issues started immediately after the FIA introduced the ban on same axle brake bias devices.........

    It actually may be as their straight line speed is the absolute pits.

    They could just have too much drag but it is very coincidental

    This is amazing, although to be a pedant, all of his laptimes were slower than 1:23.000, with only 1 being slower than 1:23.999 but I get what they mean.

    Amazing achievement though.

    That one slow lap to get the tyres settled probably saves that sliver of rubber that wins the race.

    Gunter steiner said red bull were arrogant about their car and brought no special monza aero package.

    Kind of interesting that these teams think about monza right at the outset of the season, prob Monaco amd Singapore too

    The fact red bull brought nothing and ended up well down the field
