It's really true. Thank you for saying it, and I am glad others see it. As soon as things don't go his way he can't wait to crap on everyone around him. He's always been that way. Merc has given him a nearly unbeatable car for almost a decade, so we have been spared his childish petulance most of his inherited career. Will be interesting to watch him deteriorate if in 10 races he is still behind in the WC, but that's unlikely because Merc is such an awesome team, and will bounce back.V12-POWER wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 6:50 pmthe guy has always been like this, plays the role of a priest when he wins then at the slightest problem throws everything and everyone under the bus.Unf wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 6:39 pmNah.

Let's just assume it was all Mercedes but I think Lewis needs to be a bit more respectful towards his team. They've given him a mega car for 8 seasons.
i guess he didn’t gather enough “blessings” and “energy” from his fans today lmao
yet it’s still better than bottas who gets awfully screwed up race by race and never calls out his team
When Vettel was coming out of the pits side by side with Gasly, with Hamilton right behind, and the tv crew cut to a replay of Stroll missing the chicane yet again i yelled.
Yes! Ahaha.
Both are wrong. We have 3 sprint races to add to that tally!SmallSoldier wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 6:28 pmI meant throughout the season... Not how many left we hadgodlameroso wrote:17SmallSoldier wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 4:46 pm

Nah, would take the charm of the qualifying session. Just keep it as it is. But once a year.

It has not bothered for the last couple of decades where it has been exactly the same situation... Doesn’t bother me nowadays either.
Is it a procession? Yes... Is the “race”
Boring? Yes... Does it bring something different to the calendar? Yes!
Toughest track for the driver’s and teams... Usually a surprise or 2... Best qualifying session of the year and a historic event... I can live with it... For those that can’t, there are other 22 races in the calendar to enjoy

I think the main issue is they smoothened out the hump between the tunnel exit and the chicane. That used to be the only legitimate place for passing but it seems to be much more difficult since the braking has become much easier.
But the points are ‘earned in qualifying’ so why bother with the boring procession? Just qualify on Sunday and give them straight out then. Unless you’re saying there needs to be an actual race to earn them? Which instantly discounts Monaco as it isn’t really a race. Instead it’s a procession that can literally be won with a broken engine!TimW wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 10:19 pmNah, would take the charm of the qualifying session. Just keep it as it is.

Could you give proof for your statement there?Chuckjr wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 10:09 pm

Hey, very good point. I wasn’t aware, but now you bring it up. Totally right. But it was also very crash likely and that no longer happens (almost). Yeah, this was the last place.
Well, have a look how Mick took the position from Mazepin. That was an impossible move and Mazepin saved them both there. Maybe the team repayed him like that?siskue2005 wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 10:50 pm
Mick's race was also sabotaged by his team today... he was running infornt and they gave better pitstop for Mazepin. Then they didn't allow his position back
Only Ocon used the Medium in a comparable way. On one side I would say he was a bit quicker from the pits. But there is no clear evidence, Gio was similarly in pace. But he lost against Stroll after 7 good laps.
Seemed like a fairly open honest interview, he didn't say anything incendiary. Obviously dutch TV were trying to create drama out of the fact he appeared to just walk off, the reality is the interviewer gave him the nod to say the interview was over. Don't be fooled by the mic, nobody is holding it, because of CV measures it's fixed to a stand.Schuttelberg wrote: ↑Sun May 23, 2021 6:32 pm
