Damn i should have included STR in the cars that are level with Mclaren.
You realize both McLarens didn't finish there laps and would have both jumped him right?

Also looks like Ferrari are behind according to your analysis, hell one of them didn't even make q3.
Mclaren chassis is about as good as STR and so is their PU.

The Mclaren PR / Fan boys seem to think their chassis is as good as RBR and they are dragging around a Honda boat anchor PU. Which is rubbish. Both Mclaren and Honda have work to do.

That's a little unfair. The Fanboyz maybe (some of them), but McLaren PR seem to me to be giving honest appraisals of the situation in that both still need work.

Turned down the chance to meet Vettel at Silverstone in 2007. He was a test driver at the time and I didn't think it was worth queuing!! 🤦🏻‍♂️

So is Rosberg even being investigated?
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

"What I need to check is that Rosberg was behind Daniel, and managed to get a purple middle sector,” Horner told Sky Sports F1.

Show me quotes of of them saying the chassis is as good as the redbull or it didn't happen.

Took Nico longer to achieve with better cars than Hakkinen ever had (Save 98/99). But I'm guessing cooken is merely expressing that Hakkinen was demonic quick, especially in qualifying.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but double waved yellow means "slow down and prepare to stop" and not "lift a second early and take the corner full speed"

Because the track was clear at the time it looked a bit silly, but on the other hand a rule is a rule.

not sure how accurate this is!

Two waved yellows at the same post indicates great danger ahead. Drivers must slow down and be prepared to stop; no overtaking is permitted unless a driver is lapped.

Sure, why not?

I think part of the reason some people are so venomous in their dislike for him is just how cocky he comes across sometimes. Personally I think it speaks to his psychological makeup and is part of his way of keeping his self-belief as high as it needs to be when you have competitors who are, rightly or wrongly, rated much higher than you such as Hamilton, Vettel, Ricciardo.

Yes I absolutely want to say that, however I am attempting to refrain...

I was also quite partial to Hakkinen, what a legend. Paper records will now place Nico's name alongside Mika's. Boo. Maybe a 30pt font asterisk would do.
