Wow.

 

[foster4prez]

Seems like this belongs here....

It seems to me. Lance Stroll is the Paul Menard of F-1.
Only has the quality of his ride because of his rich daddy!

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Stroll was fairly capable this weekend. And not as dirty as his teammate.

Sainz was solid all weekend.

Sainz is setting-up his portfolio for his exit from Ferrari when Hamilton arrives. Maybe Sainz will end-up at Mercedes?

The past two seasons.
There has been Red bull & Sainz winners. And No one else.

Why is there been so much talk of Verstappen possibly leaving Red Bull? That is absurd. Clickbait I assume.

Agreed. Verstappen isn't leaving RB.

I could see Sainz taking Checo's seat though.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Never say never.

I would actually love to see Verstappen not in the best equipment. Make F1 more interesting.

What a weird and wonderful sprint qualifying in China today. It got wetter as qualifying went on and the cream came to the top.

 

[Retroram52]

It's going to be weird seeing Hamilton in a Ferrari.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Adrian Newey has left Red Bull.

Likely Ferrari or Aston.

Or back to McLaren?

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Congrats to Riccardo for the p4 in the sprint race.

LOL I think Maggs wasnt happy for the 1st penalty & decided he was determined to ruin Hamilton's race.

To you F1 gurus.
Doesnt the drivers have some form of penalty points system that carries with them for a year or something like that?
If so. Magnussen used up a bunch of those points in this race just to say FU to Hamilton.
Would love to have a microphone around those two today.

Like I stated a couple of years ago, F-1 is headed toward the GTP class in the IMSA series. This new livery of the wheel splash/spray guards car is a few modifications away.

F1's Prototype Spray Guards Really Stretch the Definition of 'Open Wheel'

F1's second-gen design gives us "rental kart" vibes.

I really cant get the inconsistency of F-1 & their penalties.

If I had more feelings or loyalties to a driver or teams, I would probably be pretty annoyed.

Since I dont. I am often just left bewildered. LOL

 

[Retroram52]

Same here Schmoopy. Bewilderment is the modus operandi of the day for a lot of fans of the series.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Well Max pulls a Max a gain.
RB looks like they are out to lunch this weekend & he pulls out the pole when it counts.
Can McClaren & Ferrari keep him honest in the race? Can Leclerc take 2nd in points?

The points game would have been interesting this year with not having known the guaranteed winner every week LOL

 

[Retroram52]

After all the hype about Ferrari's new livery upgrade, Verstappen still beats them. LOL!!

 

[Schmoopy1000]

My question is.
Everything leaning towards Ferrari winning Monaco this year with Verstappen starting 6th & next to impossible to pass.
Will they win it or will they fuck up the strategy yet again?
