Nuff said. Although I still think Prost is a twat waffle who couldn't hold Senna's lunch. Apparently I missed all this Croft v. Rosberg hate. Now I have something to look forward to when they have Rosberg guest commentating, since I find him to be a pompous asshat. Makes me like Croft more.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Formula_One_Grand_Prix_wins_by_Michael_Schumacher When Mika wasn't competitive (or I should say Mika's *car* wasn't competitive), Schumacher generally had similar winning margins. You also have to consider that he slowed down at the end of races (when he was miles ahead). Things were different when they had fueling stops too. You wouldn't just have to cover tire changes, you would have to cover somebody burning gas like mad and doing a "splash and dash" at the end.
In Vegas I put 20 bucks down for Danny Ric to win the Miami GP. Payout would be 15k, so pray for a hurricane.
I have watched F1 for 40 years, through thick and thin. However, this year is really trying my patience. Nothing against Verstappen but this is beyond boring. Thank goodness for the World of Outlaws keeping me entertained.
Casinos love love love bets like this. And, no racing in hurricanes. Hell, they hardly race in light rain anymore.
Yeah, it was 100% a joke to be able to send to friends. I did bet on Lando to win the Vegas GP and Erricson to win the Indy 500. So if any of you want a guarantee, bet on those to not happen.
I'm the opposite with Max. I want him to win pole position, sprint race, main race, and set fastest lap. I was hoping he could do this at every round, but maybe next year. He's a straight shooter no BS kinda guy. Some may feel he has a cold persona, but Dutch people are very cool - I've gotten to know a few of them, and they are all great. You may have an argument with them one moment, then directly afterwards have an invite to join them at a pub. Very hard working and smart as well. It's the driver type that preaches one thing, then does the opposite, that I hate. Like being eco-friendly - then sends his private jet to deliver his dog to him, half-way around the world. Sadly, Vettel is inching his way towards being added to the list. Worst of all, F1 popularity is growing, but the type of new viewers are not gear heads, but very similar to people that watch The Kardashians. I absolutely hate those kind of folks. I can't wait till they've moved onto something else. BTW, notice the difference in Hass' performance ever since Steiner was fired?
That car was already designed when he was let go. If he is responsible for the bad, give him credit for the good. Let's wait until next year before talking too harshly about him.
To clarify, I dont mind if Max wins all that you mentioned. I just want it to appear that he has to work for it. Yes, Max is typical Dutch but there is more to his persona. Jos basically abused that kid for years and that shaped him. I cant stand Jos. I love me some Steiner but his results were crap. Haas is way better off without him. It was his driver management style that I dont like.
LOL. Funny, no other teams are lining up to hire him. Let alone Mercedes, that, oh by the way, has an opening...
Well this throws quite the spanner in some plans Newey to leave Red Bull over Horner allegations https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/cmm3v9ny78eo
Wow, would be a major score for Ferrari. Maybe another Ferrari/Schumacher domination type Era coming?
But with Lewis? I don't think he has THAT many championship years in him. LeClerc? He has the potential, maybe.
Agreed. Mick just isn't fast / consistent enough to be competitive in F1. No shame, neither are 99% of race car drivers. He'll have a great career in WEC or something. By example, Nyck The Fleas just won at Imola last weekend. Great driver, multi-time Formula E winner... didn't even make it a full season in F1.
