@esploratore Yes, I am a HAM fan, as I am fan of some other drivers. HAM together with his team messed up setup in Qualy, and he didnt make it to the pits when it was vital. So he got a 4, which is ok.
My +1 […]
BasCB commented on the post, Formula 1 confirms it will not race in Russia this year 2 months, 4 weeks ago
To be honest @esploratore, it could just as well be they wrote that sentence because of the simple fact that they won’t be ABLE to refund since they won’t be able to send any USD/GBP/EUR etc to anyone anywhere by […]

@esploratore Yeah, they proved the brake test with brake pedal pressure and deacceration (69 bar, 2.4 g iirc). it seems MV-fans blindnes has no limits
TFLB commented on the post, Ricciardo's Monza victory softens his decisive defeat by Norris 5 months ago
@esploratore I rated Sainz’s two seasons with McLaren as better than Ricciardo’s with Renault, so yes, personally I did rate Sainz marginally higher than Ricciardo coming into this season – and much higher now.

Thanks for normally agreeing with me, @esploratore , it’s nice to hear that my comments are memorable.
But on this occasion, why do you think Alfa Romeo would want to sabotage Giovinazzi? I don’t see the ben […]Sam commented on the post, Late race restart was genuine attempt to achieve green flag running – Masi 8 months, 4 weeks ago
@esploratore How many drivers have ended up in the hospital or died at Spa in the last 2 years? What about the last 2 weeks? The track matters and these conditions might be ok for hungary but not Spa. We cannot […]

@esploratore
I assumed he was calling for a red flag because he was in second after Q2 and knew he wasn’t likely to stay there. I still think that’s the case.Dom commented on the post, Aston Martin formally requests review of Vettel's disqualification 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I think the rule that there must be new evidence is to stop countless silly protests @esploratore and there isn’t any reason to believe that the stewards made a mistake in this instance anyway, it’s the tea […]

@esploratore don’t’ fret, that wasn’t that inaccurate – just 4 seasons off. For some folks, that’s a bullseye:)

Thanks, @esploratore
Hmm as much as I don’t want to see that happen… as has been said several times recently – hamilton is only one DNF away from being near enough to the lead in the championship… and I […]

@esploratore – I don’t know that this race alone will silence critics. But if he keeps up this level, there will be nothing to criticize. He supported VER, leapfrogged HAM and was in position to take the win when […]

@esploratore Ferrari made big mistakes in their car development in 2018, so much so that around the USA race they went back to a months old spec and were immediately faster. Vettel’s incidents didn’t help, but the […]

@esploratore Merc can easily put Russel in their car as a replacement for Bottas. Nearly every contract that exists between intelligent beings have escape clauses. Even that thing you sign with your mobile, […]
Michael commented on the post, Hamilton's underrated last championship opponent 11 months, 3 weeks ago
@esploratore I agree, Vettel is not a perfect driver. Ferrari is also not the perfect team. But you don’t get win 4 WDCs and come 2nd 3 times without being an exceptional driver.
On the other hand, Lewis […]

@esploratore Ultra-British The Race also gave Hamilton a pass. It was the car of course.
montreal95 commented on the post, Verstappen leads a championship for the first time since his karting years 1 year ago
@esploratore Clearly a car starting on pole can’t be that slow. The 1996 was horribly unreliable but it was slow only on some tracks while on others it was pretty quick.

@esploratore Maybe not quite as Mazepin finished a full lap behind Tsunoda, but really bad performance anyway, so I also agree with Russell.

Only 1/2 year difference in age between both respective comebacks but absolutely both cases due to Father Time. @esploratore

@esploratore Plus Bottas has some payback due to give for Verstappen jumping ahead in the pit and damaging his car in a previous Monaco race…
JimG commented on the post, Why Ferrari's Monaco potential was "obvious" to Norris 1 year ago
@esploratore Is it? It’s not clear to me how to read that graph – is everyone except Williams slower or faster than they were in 2019?
