In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
The McLaren sucks on Inters which is bad news because if the race is wet enough for full wets they won't run it.
Fernando is an absolute beast. What a driver.
Alonso did not slow down for a yellow flag ? Thats what the race commentators are saying.
US fans it's on Fox live.
End of Q2, debatable without the facts really. I was watching live timing, he set a 33.0 in the final sector which wasn't his PB but it also wasn't exactly slow either. I doubt anything comes of it.
Well they will, but it will start behind the safety car and by the time they get going it will inter conditions. I pray its a dry start tomorrow that turns into a wet race else I doubt we even see racing start.
Rain used to mean excitement. Now it means delay. What a fecking joke.
It wasn't his PB but still 3 seconds faster then Schumi who did slow down and ease off in that sector. Meh. The golden boy will never be charged for things like this though - had Jenson not eased off however he'd be getting a grid penalty no doubt.
Missed the quali. What happened to mclaren? I thought they were bringing updates.
It's wet and they are decent on full wets, can't get the heat in the inters for quali laps. Without dry running though they don't really know, the impression I get from Whitmarsh is that they have some updates for Silverstone but a more visual update for Germany, rumours of a proper stepped nose.
Hoping for another podium finish for Schumi.
wtf is fox live?
Any USA F1 fans planning on going to the US Grand prix?
I was thinking about it. Still talking about it with my friend. Will decide soon.
Fox.............live as opposed to on tape delay on speed channel
i'd love to do the US GP but it'll be too far. the GP up in canada is a 4hr car ride.
Well I'm in PA and it is on delay on Fox and not at all on the speed channel when I checked the listings. I'll still check in the morning though.
BBC boys are brave
They are mental.
What a great first few laps!
Massa in drs range, dont know if that will make à différence.
no David it wont. Massa needs drs to keep up with other cars.

Maldonado strikes again. It's a joke.
Maldonado in a crash, I don't believe it.
Oh look, Maldonado has crashed into someone. What a fecking surprise.
Seriously, they have to do something about Maldonado. He's a massive, massive liability on the racetrack.
It's impossible to pass Maldonado or race with him because as soon as anyone gets close he bites, he's a tit.
DC and Edwards praising Hamilton for screwing around with his strategy, genius.
Good bit of racing but another example of Lewis not using his head.

Exactly. His race engineer had just said that every tenth counts at the moment, so instead he gets involved in a pissing contest with Alonso, losing precious time in a pointless battle.
Maldonado is a brainless tit.
Lap too late pitting Hamilton really.
If he'd left Alonso alone and pitted a lap earlier he could have come out in 5th.
Perez speaks sense about Maldonado.

Not saying anything that other people aren't thinking

I'm watching it on Sky Sports - what did he say?
Sauber's Sergio Perez on his incident with Williams' Pastor Maldonado: "He doesn't respect other drivers. I was already in front and he should have given space not to crash but he tried to push me all the way. I don't understand why he drives like that and I hope the stewards do something. It is not first time he has damaged my weekend. This guy will never learn if they don't do something. He could hurt someone. Everybody has concerns about him."
More from Sergio Perez: "He is a driver with no respect at all, the way he is driving the stewards have to do something. He affects many other drivers. I am not the only one."
He was just interviewed by Sky Sports there, and said much the same thing, I expect. Really had a go. And well-deserved, too - Maldonado is very much a "stupid driver" who shows "no respect to other drivers".
Maldonado is a driver with no respect, you know when you're racing with him he doesn't give any thought to other drivers, he's dangerous and something needs to be done about him to bring him under control. Also said all the other drivers have mentioned it.
McLaren are nowhere on pace, the usual dissapointing Silverstone updates.
The Alonso/Ferrari combo looks mega right now.
