Pick a winner

 

Rumour that Merc may not use spec 2 engine here again. Customer teams will be

 

Bernie will be the Financial winner .

He own's the circuit !

As for the race ?

I'm thinking about it .

 

Looks like they are using the full circuit for the first time since Elio de Angelis fatality in 86.

The subsequent GP's held there until they stopped going after 1990 used a shorter loop onto the Mistral Straight before the first esses to avoid that section..

 

Sorry to go off topic , but IIRC you yourself mentioned about that accident in the off season post .

An accident that should NEVER have led to his death . Just tragic . Not enough marshalls .

 

FP2 .

Pains me to post this , but even I have to laugh .

Stroll's back on the radio again, with the levels of grumpiness familiar to any 19-year-old. "Give me information please," he shouts. "Tell me something I should be doing."

Well, you can tidy the kitchen and mow the lawn if you like, Lance.

"The car doesn't work on these tyres," says Lance Stroll on his team radio. Does the Williams car work on any tyres? You could probably mount it on four blancmanges and not do much worse.

 

Where's the grass?

 

Heads have to roll at McLaren.

Absolutely abject performance.

 

Somebody.... anybody.... please stop Croft from ******* shouting!

 

Where's the beef?

 

Leclerc impressing again. Must now have Kimi's seat for 2019?

 

Certainly Autosport think so.

 

With how Kimi drove today, he couldn't complain if Leclerc got the seat for Austria.

 

I've gone for a Bottas win .

That will ensure he doesn't do it .

Also IMHO he has easily done enough to retain his seat for next year .

 

Wth?

 

Vettel's mistakes are costing Ferrari championships.

Williams' Sergey Sirotkin, in last place, has been given a five-second penalty for driving too slowly behind the sfaety car at the start. Oh, mate.



I want to cry

That start. Cars all over the place.

 

Ah ok .

It's just you posted WTH . That confused me anyway
