Pironi the Provocateur

+1, I gave it to Latifi because he’s way better than people paint him to be (just another paydriver) and he had brilliant pace in the Williams, beating Russell quite convincingly.

– a phenomenal drive from Hamilton but he didn’t look well at all on the podium. Hope he was just exhausted.
– Bottas should quit F1 after this race.
– hugely underwhelming race from Ricciardo. Maybe there was […]

Perhaps it’s time to admit that F1 hasn’t been about fans for good few decades and it’s all just a millionaire business run by millionaires for other millionaires.

This man is a clown.

Lol.

We have three currently and Toto is talking about the importance of capping it at four.
Brawn few weeks later: “Yeah, five sounds reasonable to me.”
Horner: “But we should make sure these six weekends […]

I don’t get the tendency to bash the practices so much. Given how extremely little testing we have throughout the season, reducing practice time only seems to be depriving the drivers (and most importantly, […]

Completely agree.

Alas, the only criterion which is important for Liberty and their minions is creating as much commercial time as possible.

Ok, several objections.

– the value and importance of qualifying as probably the strongest highlight of the weekend got unelievably diminished. There’s a very little value in the “real pole position” or any […]

Although I was furious about the decision to red flag the race and proceed with the standing start, there must be some curious working of justice in all of this. By the way, there is some kind of poetic irony in […]

What can you expect from the likes of Brawn and Domenicalli who are practically multimillionaires caring only for the numbers. As are the rest of the paddock working behind the scenes – multimillionaires desperate […]

Only two words. Corporate Idi0ts. Nothing to add, nothing to explain.

Although there were some really good performances from Verstappen, Sainz, Vettel and Gasly, the way Norris could drag McLaren to a place where it shouldn’t have been (given their recent form and results from free […]

Just the old Brackley brigade, nothing to be surprised about.

He was considerably holding Hamilton off before eventually allowing him to pass with DRS. Verstappen would be stuck.

I gave it 5 because it was the least boring Spanish Grand Prix since 2017, but still, this circuit (as well as Paul Ricard, Sochi, Singapore and Abu Dhabi) should have no place in the calendar.

Wow.

A classy drive from Hamilton and a wake up call for Red Bull. Not that they could do something dramatically different given the course of the race (Hamilton was quicker throughout the whole race), but this has […]
