Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Hmm
Yes I'm with Lewis on that one, you wouldn't catch me doing that! Loved his comment re sweaty feet and tie cheese....
Where did that come from any way? We have been trying to work it out, is it a weird Aussie thing us poms will never understand?!

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Fantastic race only down side was Verstappens failure,'cos it could have been really open if he had not broken down.
Really pleased for Lance Stroll as he has had many undeserved barbs.OK so his Dad is rich and has backed him but he is proving he can drive,unlike Palmer,who in my opinion has no place in F1.
I thought Hamilton showed great humiliation and maturity at the weekend.What a qualy and race drive,incredible.
Nobody in the wall either most unusual.

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Patrick Stewart proving he's a legend still lol, and my god the Force India action, wonderful!
I see a future championship contender in Ocon the young lad with a real maturity about him, and proved himself so well this season. WOW, awesome race!
thanks,
Lewis

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Yes, I think he showed that he has more maturity that his team mate. Crofty was right, force India need a Ross Brawn voice of authority there who will just say this is happening now. Perez blew a possible podium for ocon and cost the team points through his selfishness​.

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
There was a bizarre thing said after the race and I never heard anything more. It was said that Ocon wasn't angry at Perez but someone else in the team. My thought at the time was he was angry at the lack of leadership shown.
Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
I thought it was odd that Sergio was asking for time to get past, after being behind Dan for how many laps? I presume the RB was better out of ten, because you would have expected a Merc engine to blow past the Renault, erm... Tag Heuer... But good job Dan for not making a mistake.

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
I think Perez showed that he is missing that final ingredient that makes a champion. He said I want to stay behind because he will make a mistake soon.
You can't rely on someone making a mistake. The difference between champions and the rest of the field is that champions get inventive and make their own chance or opening. Just sitting, following and praying for a mistake does not make winners.
Ocon on fresher tyres than both of them should have had the grip under braking and traction out of corners to get closer and get the job done and I think Perez didn't want to get shown up by the new boy.

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Palmer fails again!!He really is on the skids.
looks like it really could be a good threeway team battle.
Lookout for Max.
Cheers Chris
PS I was wrong at Canada about the wall but wait for the safety cars here!!!!!

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
that's interesting for sure, really enjoying this season and P1 and P2 was great, Red Bulls showing some pace. And unlike last year looks like the track might claim a few victims this year if P1 and 2 are anything to go by when they where not even running race pace
cheers,
Lewis
cheers,

Re: Formula 1 2017 Season
Yes should be good.Lewis showed his stuff but can he sustain it in the race?
Palmer yet another disaster.
Verstappen,well I think he might win this race if he can avoid a crash.
Really though my money is on Lewis.
Cheers Chris

How that guy can nick a couple of tenths in the dying seconds is astounding!
