@ahxshades As far as I’m concerned, I’m criticizing the institution. Maybe you can explain how you can be ‘nasty’ about an institution. I leave persecuting royals to the royalists. (HRH PP detested the royalist […]

@jackisthestig I think we (the UK) can easily do without either.

I think the Meghan Markle debacle gives a good insight into how far their ‘global view’ really extends. But entrenched racism aside, it’s the amount of undeclared wealth and secretive undemocratic influence that […]

@jerejj I’ve no issue with respecting the fact a 99-year old man died. I do have an issue with the perpetuation of a toxic institution through imposed quasi-devotion. The UK is little different to North Korea at such moments.

Couldn’t they have rearranged the funeral to avoid clashing with F1 qualifying? Compulsory mourning for British serfs, I can understand. But Italian?! The rest of the world?!?
Seriously, even the British public […]David BR commented on the post, Mercedes regard Verstappen as "a very mature, very smart racer now" 1 day, 17 hours ago
Max is clearly a very mature, very smart racer now and he’s difficult.
Well, I guess that means Mercedes pass the ‘awake trackside’ test.David BR commented on the post, How F1's new rookie class fared in their first challenge of 2021 2 days ago
Tsunoda is an ideal spot, the car is good, capable of Q3 and race points (for now anyhow), his team mate is rated highly, he can achieve much more than other talented young drivers – including Russell say – stuck […]

@aiii Fair point. I mean, I took both DtS seasons as ‘dramatic exaggeration’, not insightful documentary. But it does show Ricciardo, like anyone else I guess, sees things very much slanted their own way. I […]

@coldfly Nice solution, but I’m betting on 1 Hamilton setting the faster lap time still :OP

Shovlin doesn’t blame FIA though:
either we took a bigger hit with the rules or they had a better rate of development since they applied the regulation changes. But it is what it is. We’ve got a car that could w […]David BR commented on the post, Analysis: Five factors will decide how close this title fight is going to be 6 days, 4 hours ago
@robbie Hmm, Horner implying that Mercedes were equal or faster on the mediums and/or in the race? But if you factor in Max’s differential issue and the alleged time advantage Hamilton gained at turn 4, and even […]

@davewillisporter Yes, that’s pretty much how I see it too. The prospect of a first championship could be seen as a motivator boost for Verstappen, but then being in an actual title fight again could just as well […]
David BR commented on the post, Analysis: Five factors will decide how close this title fight is going to be 1 week ago
@robbie Yep. I can also see Perez causing Mercedes some real problems too over strategy if and when he gets up to speed and especially if Bottas fades out. VB is used to starting the season well, but he’s already […]
David BR commented on the post, Analysis: Five factors will decide how close this title fight is going to be 1 week ago
@robbie I’m not going to disagree with that! However there are different varieties of BS. One is pretending you’re worried about the competition when you’re actually worried they may have edged a tenth closer. […]

@robbie Which is kind of standard for anyone trying to overtake :o?
I think Max had one chance and messed it up by trying in the wrong place. Still excellent. I’m just questioning the narrative of ‘Max gave it […]David BR commented on the post, Analysis: Five factors will decide how close this title fight is going to be 1 week ago
Wayne, I’m not sure either figure is credible TBH. But then there is also the claim Red Bull kept the engine power a bit turned down too because of potential heat issues. I’d say they were clearly ahead, as […]
