Can we give Hamilton a penalty for anything please?

 

Jeebus crust, do they need to hire some rednecks to show them how to tow that racing point car? These corner workers must be union 'cause they are making a career out it.

 

I guess 64 workers with brooms is cheaper than a blower-truck.

 

Everybody's going to score points at this rate.

 

Dani Ric!

 

Albon!

 

Always wondered. What's with the 3rd World straw brooms they have in the corners for the Marshalls? Like 18th Century brooms. Is that somehow better for carbon fiber shreds?

 

I see people using those all over the world. Believe it or not, they're very common.

 

From my experience, push brooms don't work as well on rough surfaces as sweeping brooms. Push brooms are awesome scrubbing oil dry into asphalt, but sweeping brooms tend to clear debris faster.

 

I almost felt bad for Max... almost.

 

I have been out of the professional cycling loop since Armstrong. What is the story of the McLaren cycling team racing in the Tour de France right now? I know at one point Alonso also was funding a cycling team. Is that team still around?

 

I don't think they do anything, other than naming rights.

McLaren supposedly helped develop the Specialized Venge in their wind tunnel, but that was almost a decade ago.

 

Your boy Vettel has been doing well, just got out qualified by his teammate for the 7th straight time, and just demolished his car, he's doing well

 

Yet he still has 4 more championships than your box Maxipad

 

Yes he does, and that's my point, it's all about what car you're in. When he isn't is the best car, he's just another driver, and not even the best driver on his team.

 

Your wish was granted today

 

I buy that to a certain extent but Weber was a race winner and he was in the same car as vittles, just as Bottas is in the same car as Hamilton.

 

Only thing that made the race even remotely interesting.

 

Sainz? bouncing off the wall was interesting/amusing. Must have seen Verstappen cut the corner, so figured why not, lol. Max never even tried to make that corner on the first lap, and he really had no reason to not make it. Stewards never even looked at it.

 

There’s already one race series that does bullshit like that, we don’t need another one just because some dude is crushing it in the prime of his career
