September 1, 20205 yr I read this on planetf1.com It just so spot on, I couldn't stop laughing. "If there is one positive for the Scuderia heading into the Italian Grand Prix next week, it’s that there will be no tifosi in the stands to witness what looks like being another humiliation." I really do feel bad for the drivers, sucks when the engine is ripped from under you by regulations and the development of the chassis went in the wrong direction.
September 3, 20205 yr Author What a sad state the red cars are in! It happens to the best of them though (Williams). I can't help wondering if the local police will be able (or try) to keep the tifosi from lining the fences and filling the trees like they usually do? Just have to wait and see?
September 5, 20205 yr What a disastrous qualification Ferrari had at Monza earlier today! Enzo is turning over in his grave.
September 5, 20205 yr Yea unfortunately for them Enzos reach does not extend beyond the grave. The old man would never have allowed the regulations that nurfed their engine. I was really impressed by Sainz and mclaren. Thank god they banned engine modes btw clearly that closed the gap..
September 6, 20205 yr Randomness saves us from tedium yet again, a trio on the podium that no one would have bet on! Perhaps Bernies sprinkler idea wasn't so daft!
September 7, 20205 yr I think the red flag after Magnussen's breakdown was excessive. Way too much luck for Gasly and Stroll, but hey, these are races and it was a lot of fun
September 7, 20205 yr Author That was too much fun! Congrats to all the winners (that includes McLaren and F1 in general). That race highlighted a lot of the things I love about F1. Sad to see Claire and Frank leaving the helm of Williams. The end of owner run teams for now at least.
September 8, 20205 yr Finally, an interesting race. Happy to see Gasly get a win. He's been through so much. Edited September 8, 20205 yr by robm321

September 13, 20205 yr Two hours into the race and it is still open for grabs, this is hilarious :) They need tracks like this.
October 2, 20205 yr On 9/5/2020 at 3:52 PM, Torpedo said: Yup, Honda got a lot worse on qualification. Some are more shocked than others. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2020/10/honda-shocks-f1-says-it-will-quit-the-sport-after-2021/
October 3, 20205 yr They should be going hydrogen instead of electric on batteries. At least they are coherent with the carbon neutrality goal. I'm not sorry for Red Bull, though. I'never liked nor trusted them, all those Vettel championships still smell fishy.
November 6, 20205 yr Author Yup,.. that was a good one!!! I was living with my long suffering mother those days so she got to hear those races in the early AM (used to have it on VHS).
November 7, 20205 yr So youtube thinks I like f1 now... so binging This is impressive precession driving with pit input.
November 15, 20205 yr Author A wet Turkish GP quali made for some major fun! I can only hope that Sunday will be as entertaining (and I'll try not to post spoilers till Monday).
November 15, 20205 yr Yes it was. Wet races FTW As the British commentators were saying: less downforce, more driver skillz
November 20, 20205 yr Author Congrats to Lewis! Once again making it look easy and still showing humility. Not a fan but my hat's off to the best driver in the best car,.. again!
November 20, 20205 yr Yes, congrats to Hamilton. I'm a fan because he's such a good driver. Obviously, having the best car also makes for uneventful races, so I usually root against him. I've been disappointed that Bottas hasn't given him more of a challenge also.
November 20, 20205 yr Author One thing that really sets him above so many other greats is the way he makes the right decision over and over, race after race. It must drive the other drivers mad!
November 27, 20205 yr The Case For Logan Sargeant: Road To Formula 1 Glory Solid mini-documentary about how one can get into F1, I am routing for a US driver to be there.
November 29, 20205 yr OMG what a race. I'm glad there are no casualties. I won't say more not to spoil the fun of those not watching it live.
