2017 FORMULA 1 ROLEX BRITISH GRAND PRIX: RACE *** SPOILERS ***

Well Audi eventually tired of winning Le Mans and withdrew....

 

HAM domination. Bottas drive of the day.

 

Hungary will be better suited to Ferrari . . . . . I hope.

 

Kimi is utterly disgusted. I feel for him.

 

Kimi lost his application to the Bottas Fan Club and didnt request another LOL...

 

I fear we are going back to the domination of the last years...

 

The first third of the season was a fluke....or perhaps even staged?

 

Disagree. Merc hadn't figured out how to keep the tires consistent after their FRIC-like suspension was banned, while Ferrari had very good performance and understanding from the tires. It wasn't so long ago that Wolff felt Merc had zero margin for error given Ferraris performances.

Merc has figured it out, clearly.

 

The UK's coverage was incredibly sycophantic towards Hamilton before the race even started!

I've had to bail out of watching as they will now be talking about him as though he is a higher World power than God!

 

Now it starts...fans, blessed....all the same drivel over and over again
That is more annoying than Mercedes being dominant again...

 

Engage Mute----I can't hear you Elton.

Oh wait, Zoolander's rival. Ok, I guess I will listen...

 

I will say it will be interesting to hear what Ferrari has to say after this. Two left fronts failing like that makes you wonder if it is car setup. Regardless, total disaster. I wish Mercedes would have similar disasters, but they don't. They are German, they plan things out too well.

 

Maybe they will knight Elton.

Enough of this drivel. Time for some breakfast. Over and out....

 

He brought NOTHING to the interview. Why was he there? Just to talk to his voice-acting compadre?

Jensen made it work out alright.

 

Ham destroys the opposition. Bottas flying too. That was an ominously dominant performance. The Merc team seem to have worked out how to get their package working.

Poor Ferrari. On the back foot now and really bad luck with the double tyre issue which wrecked Kimi and Vets race. Let's hope for some upgrades soon to keep this championship alive.

Someone please sack Kvyat.

 

The former, I guess.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

In retrospect, it was a mistake for me to disengage Mute.....what a buffoon.....

 

A knighthood would be too small - expect Hamilton to be declared Saint Hamilton, the patron Saint of racing, any time soon!




Edited to add:

Just spotted there's a re-run of Columbo on right now! - I love Columbo!


(Strangely, as a kid I always found Columbo really slow and boring - Now I'm older though, I can't get enough of it! )

 

Well that was...interesting.

 

He'll be crowned queen at some point

 

Let´s hope at least Bottas can keep it interesting until the end of the year...I was hoping the time of a pure intern Mercedes duel might be gone...

 

First time I've actually been angry at a race result in a very long time. Probably Japan 2006!

I really hope Ferrari will actually start with updating this car properly now.

 

LOL!!!

 

+5
+7

Ferrari is losing the development race again. 10 years or so ago it was against McLaren, then it was RBR, and now it's MB...

 

It's rather unbelievable how stubborn they are. Stubborn and disorganized. They're arrogant and believe that by simply employing great driver that'll be enough. It's not 1960 anymore.
