You have no idea.That must be hard for you.
F1 2017 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
Was just about to say you feeling ok?
I see people having ago at Merc for letting Bottas back but he's only 33 points behind Seb with 9 races to go. He's has a chance to win the title, he probably won't but still.
I think the penalty thing needs to be looked at, Max did over 40 laps before taking it.
I'm not talking just about Lewis. Almost every drivers complains a lot during races. Donit care if they name is Lewis or Sebastian.
When Schumacher and Ferrari did this everyone blamed them for being unprofessional and not respecting the sport.
So if this is fine now then I guess it's also fine for other sports like football to dive a lot. Just helping teammates to win games!
2 + 2 = 2,729,284,728.
Spa should be close
Here(Monza), yes, Mercs should be untouchable
Great race by Seb today with those steering wheel problems, but really, this was all about Kimi. He carried Vettel to first. Incredible teamwork and race from him
Mercs kept their word to Bottas and Lewis accepted it. Didn't expect it honestly, and i think it was stupid. Classy, but stupid
Yep, Kimi deserves the award for the best driver today.
Merc 1 & 2 is a sure bet.
Ferrari needs to finish on the podium though.
Think Ferrari have a chance at Spa if they get the balance right. Spa still has some long/high down-force corners.
No hope at Monza though.
Yeah, Monza is nailed to Mercedes.
Hamilton causes a bitch fit if he doesn't get number 1 driver on his team.
And Kimi is up there with Alonso as one of the fastest driver when he's motivated.
This.
If he was selfish and went against team orders, he would have finished first while Vettel would most likely drop to 5th because he's not going to hold off the Mercs and Max with his wonky starring wheel.
Stayed a company man and got Ferrari that 1-2. No wonder Sec wants him back as a team mate for next season.
Some people believe what they want. I think after spending time in this F1 forum I realised most people can't see what's right in front of them.
Honestly cannot be bothered posting here again, the total lack of objectivity is shocking.
Yeah, saying about Vettel that he needs #1 status but Hamilton don't what the hell
Hamilton is probably the most annoying prick as a teammate, ever.Great result for the competition, even if the lack of overtaking made this a boring race to watch.
Respect to Kimi for sticking to the team orders and to Mercedes/Lewis for the double switch; that decision might bite Mercedes in the arse come the end of the season tho'.
On a side note, I wonder how good the Mclaren would be with a decent engine, especially with Alonso driving it?

Probably in the mix for the title, the McLaren has the best chassis on the grid on the basis that its engine is some 50hp down on the competition.
Just watched on delay. The comments here
What was that about?
Dull race on a track that can be good.
Vettel did very well to stay out front, Kimi deserves a medal for today; although I think it's slightly sad to see such a talented driver kinda 'quashed'.
Ferrari needed to make the most of this weekend & they did. Expect Merc to claw back points in Spa & Monza, so keeps the title interesting.
Not much of a fan of Max. Yes he shows moments of brilliance, but just as many of petulance. I know he's young but kinda can't see him changing. Down the line I'm kinda wonder if he has the calm temperament to win a WC when he has a proper river. He'll probably win one by bring in a superior car at some point, but do wonder if he has the guile to win a heated battle with a rival.
For what it's worth in terms of outright pace, I believe it's;
Hamilton
Alonso
Seb
But for a team I'd pick Alonso & Ricciardo. Together they'd haul in a fantastic amount of points, even in an under performing car.

That track is very, very rarely good.
It was a go-kart track in 1986, it's even worse now.

I changed my drivers a little at the start of the season because I needed to get Vettel into my team, I had gambled that Red Bull were sandbagging during testing and that they would be quicker than Ferrari this season, which was a mistake that I quickly rectified. The teams I change occasionally when I have enough money to make a significant improvement.
I have had the same 3 for all barr one race, I put Kimi in because he looked fast in FP , he did not finish the race, cost me quite a few points.
Honestly, I forgot aI was even in it all season
I want one of those.Ferrari announce Kimi to stay for 2018.
Mick Schumacher to do demonstration run at this weekends race in his fathers 1st race winning Benetton to celebrate 25 yrs since it happened
Just heard sky italy saying Lewis dreams of driving a ferrari within the next few years and Seb might leave
