Hang on, I’m worried, we haven’t seen Horner on camera for at least 15 mins, is he ok?

The Philosophy.
That Italian anthem…. Reminds of the MSC days. Feel like it’s their season and we’ll hear it a lot this season.

Do they have to change both engines then? Grid penalty?
No penalty as they can take an engine from the permitted pool (if they do need to change it), it'll mean the back end of the season will likely have engine penalties.

Officially the best poker player on RAWK.
I'm just asking. He has not impressed my more than other drivers in smaller teams last few years. I have no idea about this guy. British people are always overrating their sports people. F.e. football players.

If anything I would think Lando Norris is more exciting driver.
This post is hilarious, dumb as duck, and also a sign of things to come.

As I said, pace yourself :lol:

Isn't there a rule that if you DNF you can change a lot more without penalty?

Still see Max/Lewis for the title
Yeah. Mercedes usually start a bit slow and then then quickly catch up. Ferrari, I still do have some concerns if they can sustain it. RB will sort things out quickly too I think.

Also it probably isn’t the engines.

Clearly electronics failures. Maybe the whole thing melted down

When Christian Horner is your representative, you're never innocent
Well the same goes for Wolff so that's hardly an excuse, the pair of them did everything in their power to influence the FIA to their advantage. Both are insufferable. Feels like people are blaming Red Bull for FIA's mistakes tbh.

The cognitive dissonance is actually hilarious. Hopefully many more meltdowns to come from odious red bull and their fans this season!

Redbull fan? Far from it. Always been Ferrari fan since Schumi days. But not supporting any drivers since he retired.

Yup. It was interesting he thought it was the battery yet they said everything was reading fine.

Smacks of electronics.
It seemed the battery system failed/overheated then made the engine have a thermal cut out.

It didn't actually blow up because there was no smoke or fire. Considering Verstappen had the steering issues also.

Your questions are meaningless when you started on the pitiful "British" thing.

Like we all don't do it.

Again, pace yourself or it's going to be a rough season for you mate.
Well, It can't be more rough than wanting to die.

The idea of bringing luck in after that has to be the dumbest thing after that. If anything RB were lucky again with that safety car timing giving them the perfect opportunity to win the race . Car not being reliable is not bad luck, that is the whole essence of building an f1 car that it has to last the race. Mercedes at the end of last season built their car in an extraordinary way but ended up losing because of extraordinary circumstances which is what bad luck is like. So feck off with the Lewis is lucky bullshit
Lucky once maybe but 7 world championships? People are just dumb.

I do want Horner to appear at some point so we get a better idea of that's happened, seems to have got issues with hydraulics system.
