are forcing all of the lower classes to suck it up and run in dismal conditions, the "big league" boys wimp out in the rain. very disappointing.
Real fans know that was a fucking incredible race that will be talked about for decades.
damn, real fans are so core.
They could be, I’m not one. The product is shit.
At least I dvr'd it and got to fast forward to the end.
I was at the Indy tire fiasco race. This one is worse. They should be racing on Monday

I'd like to be a fan of red bull, but Max is a dangerous punk.
And the team principals of both teams are whiney bitches.

Today was the first time I've watched a whole race - usually, I just watch highlights - and damn, that was intense. Would love to watch F1 live next weekend but it's so early!
same here! usually just catch snippets and highlights. trying to find somewhere local that puts on the races for next season.Quote:

I like both drivers and Max will likely be a multi year World Champion but he is really reckless IMO. Two teams on equal footing with two generational talents tied with it all coming down to the last race heads up. I don't think I have been this excited about a race

That track was intense - I'll be surprised if it isn't altered in some way for future races.
In terms of the actual racing, I think Hamilton wrapped it up pretty succinctly - "It's difficult to fight with a driver that doesn't work with the same rulebook." I think Verstappen has been tremendously lucky this season in terms of not receiving harsher penalties for his often dangerous driving.
44 is a spoiled, entitled little bitch. Far more than Max is wreckless. Lewis should have been penalized twice for infractions during formation and or yellowsQuote:

Max has just outdrove Lewis this year
Plus that track was as shitty as the Nashville Indy track. Fucking petro dollars

Is everyone even mildly interested in F1 stoked for this weekend? Best championship contest in ages.
Some great qualifying to watch this morning. Max on pole with softs. Lewis next to him on mediums. Should be a great race to watch.

That seems like advantage Hamilton if he keeps pace/leads in first stint.Quote:

Definitely interested in tomorrow’s race. Anyone know how to watch the whole race but not live? Ie - a recorded version. I don’t have the F1 subscription.

F1 is really tight on closing down unofficial versions of their content. Good luck finding one.
Live = ESPN2 @ 6:00am MST
Replay = ESPN @ 6:30pm MST
I think I might watch to see Kimi race for the last time.

Oh well, that's all folks. Time to go outside.

So much officiating involved in this sport, for something that should just be so simple as just racing cars.
Complete bull shit
I'm a newb to F1, can someone explain what happened there? Latifi crashed, safety car came on, that let Verstappen close the gap on Hamilton and then in the final lap he overtook him? I guess shit happens, but Hamiliton must be pissed.Quote:

BUT there were lapped cars in between Hamilton and Verstappen....
So with only 1 or 2 laps remaining race control typically has 2 options,
Option 1 - let ALL the lapped cars pass the safety car, and restart the race with Pos 1 and Pos 2 etc in order.
Option 2- start the race with the lapped cars in place, and the lapped cars need to yield to faster cars (non lapped) behind them.
The controversy is that race control did not command the lapped cars to pass the safety car, so it seemed that they would restart the race with Option 2, and Hamilton would have had the advantage.
If they tried to go with Option 1 it would have taken 2 full laps to get the lapped cars in order, and the race would have ended under yellow a flag, with Hamilton winning.
Race Control pulled Option 3 and only told the 5 lapped (only those between Ver and Ham) cars to pass the safety, putting Verstappen right behind Hamilton to be able to race 1 lap to the finish.
Race Control wanted a checkered flag decided on racing, not following a pace car to decide the championship.
Please correct me if I'm wrong in my understanding of how it played out.
Thanks. And Verstappen getting a tire change in there obviously helped.Quote:

Future sessions will have team lawyers in a room or on a zoom call with a judge to make their cases. Guarantee there will be law suits from this race. Too much money at stake.

F1 gonna have "lucky dog" yella flags next year.
I like that F1 has added luck to the racing. It gives that same element I like about Indycar when you're hoping for a yellow. Maybe they should limit pit stop crews too.
Ending under yellow would have ben the worst possible outcome. (This is why NASCAR went to Green, Whit, Checker so it is a 2 lap sprint) All the other lapped cars behind Max weren't going to come into play
I'm glad Lewis' dad pulled him aside and had a chat. After Lewis not driving to the winners circle I was expecting a meltdown
GOAT's aren't just know for winning, but how well they handle defeat
Max and Red Bull dominated this year
Lewis will be hungry nest year and Lewis will get next season is my guess. MB has a leg up on next years changes
It cracked me up when Lewis called Perez out for dangerous driving...not everyone is going to pull over and let you pass, especially after you slowed down too much and had too large of a gap to the safety car last week, Lewis got 2 freebies that most other drivers would have been penalized on
Toto fucked up this race by not pitting Lewis every time Max pitted, that was the biggest reason MB lost
