THIS SEASON SO FAR, both Max and Lando have easily been more impressive than Lewis, who has been uncharacteristically error-prone. That all could change.

@sonnycrockett I wouldn’t go that far lol, but I do find this particular use case quite bizarre.

Fernando, the future rookie of the year.

A bit off-topic, but here goes. Coming from someone for whom English is not their first language, I am always baffled when people use the term “humbled” after a victory. Aren’t people humbled when they get their […]

Interesting comparison, thanks for that @tone. It’s pretty much an identical incident, albeit at much lower speeds. I think that the consequences should not be taken into account, but the corner speeds should. […]

@montalvo This is what feels so wrong. It was probably 70-80% Lewis’ fault. It’s tough to blame him though, he made an error and got penalized for it (I agree that drive through would have been the appropriate […]

@david-br @freelittlebirds To me, the heli shot from the video Michael shared around 2:22 is the most telling. Lewis was never going to hit the apex, he braked too late (most likely because of the lost downforce […]

@esploratore1 This. It’s not okay to criticize someone just based on their race, but I don’t think that’s the case with Lewis in vast majority of cases. Brilliant racer, just not a great human being, simple as that.

I’m pretty sure I’d be disappointed with Max if he celebrated the win like Lewis did. I’m not disappointed with Lewis for the collision. It was his fault, his mistake, but these happen in racing. What feels wrong […]

“Hamilton takes out Verstappen to win British Grand Prix” would have been the appropriate title.

@balue When you compare the two points for this and the penalties we saw in Austria, it’s pretty ridiculous.

He was supported by a medic into the ambulance as he waved the crowd.

@jelle-van-der-meer Wasn’t impressed with the radio messages either but I don’t think that Lewis intended to hurt Max. It’s his fault, but because of a mistake more than anything. I agree that anything that Lewis […]

@maddme Perfectly summarized!

Fair assessment, Max is not faultless here, but the vast majority of the blame lays on Lewis. The fact that he didn’t even say a word after the penalty was awarded pretty much confirms that he knew he was at fault […]

Lewis better send these guys Christmas cards this year.

Wow, thanks for this reply, this makes me want to dig into this story even more. Do you have any suggestions where to look? I thought I was cool with my answer, but you showed me haha. I had no idea about the […]

To be fair Valterri had soft tyres on. But Lewis could take ownership at least once in a while.

@velocityboy I’m not sure what to make of this comment, there are two possible interpretations. Do you know that the New Coke was preferred over the classic in blind tests? It was a commercial flop because it […]
