What a boring final race! Such a contrast with the earlier Australian Supercars climax where Scotty screwed up his race with 3 penalties and gave the title to Jamie!

And the F1 logo, the old one was way much better leh!

Some time ago there was an idea to have it in Las Vegas right?

Yes... and not just American cities, Vietnam also.

Juan Pablo Montoya suddenly comes to mind. Your take on this?

great driver but always suffered with shit cars (Williams once had a great BMW engine but terrible aerodynamics & handling, McLaren is fast but fragile)

Imagine what he can do on better cars (eg Ferrari)

Well to be honest, F1 has been really testing me for several years now with those ugly car designs. Not sure how long I will still follow, but if nothing else to watch on weekends then might as well still watch F1 I suppose.

Believe it or not majority of us are always in self-denial when it comes to F1.

I think F1 should just scrap vsc and go just sc. Cheaper in cost too.

Better alternative: full course yellow

About Hamilton not given penalty.... meh, not surprised. He is FIA's new golden boy (good part: FIA is no longer Ferrari International Assistance) tongue.gif

QUOTE(6UE5T @ Jul 23 2018, 01:48 AM)
It's not bad luck or cursed, it's a driving mistake, just like Singapore last year.

I'll say both... hahaaha (he only won like once in Germany, at Nürburgring).

Old Hockenheim was better IMHO.

In spectator's POV, new Hockenheim is better. you can see all the actions.

Crazy theori: Ham will do wat Nico did IF he gets the 5 titles..Alo will go to US...Leclerc in Red Prancing, Ocon replace Ham  blush.gif

Ham signed a contract extension until 2020. Also he (theoretically) can race until late 30s (depends on his physical fitness).

I'm more worried with Ocon status at force india.... stay or booted to accomodate new owner's son? hmm.gif

About Sainz going to McLaren, is he loaned out again or McLaren buying out his contract?

Seems like Toyota stripped off their win in wec. Bad luck again for alonso.

Technical infringement. Something to do with skid block/underside laugh.gif

Also manufacturers doesn't seem to be interested with WEC or F1 at all. They'd rather go to Formula E while believing going all electric is the future.

(Side note: our local drivers finished P2 in LMP2 category. Could've won it if not for tyre puncture. Robbed a lot of time.)

Isn't his contract expiring already this year so next year already free agent, no?

Anyway on a slight side news, Alonso was supposed to win his 3rd straight WEC but then both Toyota got disqualified!  laugh.gif

Even if he is free agent, Red Bull might continue sponsoring him, although this might be unclear.
