McLaren have all but sewn up the constructor’s championship.

Max is doing the best he can with a bucket of shit.

As expected, the Ferrari / Hamilton experiment is a failure.

Also, has to be asked, why is Alonso still in F1? We all know why Stroll is.

F1 needs a huge shake up … will see whether the changes next year will do anything to save it.

Zak Brown is an arrogant faarkwit.

That is all.

Lewis cracked me up this morning

Hamiltons radio:

on being stuck behind his team mate waiting on a decision from his crew: Have a tea break while you’re at it!

on having to let his team mate past and Sainz 1.4 behind him: Want me to let Sainz past aswell? :)

Yep, Ferrari would finish much higher up the grid if Italians weren’t running it. :lol:

Unlucky for Doohan, probably not performing at the level though but still not a lot of time given. Alpine copping a bit of backlash for their driver trials but I dont mind it. Evaluate and decide. They will probably turf both of them and bring in Bottas or something anyway. Seems unlikely they will go back to Doohan and I doubt another team picks him up from here.

I suspect Alpine saying Colapinto is on a 5 race trial is probably a bit of PR to simmer down the backlash against dropping Doohan. Colapinto brings in huge sponsorship money so can't see him too being replaced this season.

Would need to be a lot of sponsorship as he crashes every car he takes out onto the track.

I believe that was fake.

Well well that didn't last long, Flavio says no five race limit for Colapinto.

Briatore has now gone against his team’s statement.

“I have to say, I also expected more from Jack Doohan - maybe he needs a break,” Briatore said to Sky Italy on Friday at Imola.

“Franco will race as much as needed - I read somewhere that he’ll have five races, but no, there’s no set limit on his races. He needs to be fast, not crash, and score points. I’m only asking him these three things - not 10.

“If he does them well, he’ll drive forever.”
