It’s not an archive, it’s a review. If they released all of the sessions in full it’d be a 50-disc set.

He joked to the C4 reporter that he wanted some music to listen to as he was getting bored.

There was one wheel to wheel battle, and it was down the field. What else was there?

Where was the race long battle? I don’t know about you but to me a battle is where cars are actually attempting overtakes, getting alongside. Except for Grosjean and Stroll briefly, there was none of that either. […]

They chose this allocation long before he was champion.

Given that the track no longer exists, I’d wager not.

I’ve always thought four hours total practice was far too long. It just gives the teams all the data they need to ensure their races run exactly to their simulations, and there are no unexpected surprises or need […]

So he’s the next Luca Badoer then.

@peartree are you seriously comparing Free Practice results to actual race results? Have you actually watched Leclerc’s performances in the lower formula. He’s not just fast, he has great racecraft and really […]

10s stop and go (Which Vettel got) and 10s time penalty are NOT the same thing. 10s time penalty costs you exactly ten seconds, whether you take it before a stop or added at the end. 10s stop and go must be done […]

What was unpredictable?

This track basically guaranteed the win, they did the right thing.

5/10, no real tension or excitement because you knew nobody could overtake, as has pretty much always been the case with Hungary.

Verstappen was not going to win that race, you can’t just deduct the 10 seconds and say he’d be first, he would’ve been stuck behind cars just as everyone else was.

I didn’t feel much tension personally simply because you knew nobody could overtake.

Who would’ve been in Hungary though?

In this case, not really. Check out the press conferences, the Sun journalist always asks ridiculous questions aimed purely at getting a juicy controversial headline.

That corridor of clapping girls on the way to the cooldown room needs to go pronto.

Only two tyres failed and they were both on the same car. Yet somehow you’ve already decided it was nothing to do with their setup or car in general, it was a general Pirelli issue.

Monaco in the dry will always be the same. Positions change only in strategy/pit lane, only overtaking attempts are desperation moves that more often than not end in a crash. Without rain, this event will never […]
