So Mercedes are now admitting what many thought previously in that they had switched focus to 2020 months ago.

Hamilton is the all time best. He makes things look easy.

Vettel was cool to go to the room and congratulate. That takes a strong personality. I may have failed to do that myself. Bravo!.

Ferrari's sudden pace changes are very very fishy. I bet they had smt "illegal".
Something so illegal without it their engine is on Honda 2015 levels :P

Jokes aside there was much more wrong today. Stuff like that makes you lose championships and they can't seem to get it right for longer periods.

Well he won’t lack motivation in 2020 with Schumacher's title being within reach.

This is the issue with Vettel.
I like Seb the man but at times can’t stand Vettel the driver due to his red mist moments and blame culture.
Agreed. Away from the car he comes across as thoughtful and has a good sense of humour - he's a guy you'd happily go to the pub with for a few beers.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Just remember folks that we ARE currently watching one of the best drivers in history. We will miss him when he is gone just like all the others that have now stopped driving for 1 reason or another. Take it in whilst he’s here.

Indeed. I actually like Seb as he seems a good cool guy.

As guilty as the rest, but isn't it funny how we get so worked up (for or against) over the performance of sports people. It won't ever really impact on our lives, we're unlikely to meet them and, even if we do, unlikely to move in their circles, but we argue for/against them with such passion.

Living our lives vicariously isn't really healthy and we should remember that. Enjoy the performances but let's not forget that it really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.

I'm already committed on my Lando Norris fan status for the next chapter of F1. I will add, that enjoying an athletic performance or achievement, is a wonderful thing. Being bitter because the athlete you abhor keeps winning, can corrode your esophagus and digestive tract form within. We all know a few of those poor guys.

I find it disappointing that he could already be a 8 times WDC and that’s not even counting 2010/2012

The same could be said for Schumacher though.

Agree. Michael could have had 2 or even 3 more titles if he had todays reliability. Can't really compare numbers and eras.
