I just wish Crofty and Brundle could have added a bit more about that but it seems everyone was just trying to calculate it all on the fly.

Dude, that's Jenson Button.

I like this take.

He's a bit chill on commentary. Mark Webber is best.

Ferrari also has been improving lately and better than Mclaren

Mclaren rules but Ferrari is becoming a bigger threat nowadays to them. At least the past few races, they have been.

I’m just pointing out flaws in your argument. I only have empathy for Bottas if he deserves it. His current championship standings means he should be 100% team player and do whatever it takes to help Hamilton's WDC chances.

If Merc was doing this to Bottas race 1, then sure, I'd have some sympathy. That's not the case today. Back in the day when Ferrari made Barichello pull over for Schumacher in the first couple of races, I felt bad for him. I'm not heartless haha.


Probably. I don't think De Vries is anything special, and Albon is best for Williams IMO. I'd say he's probably equal skills to Latifi.

There's so much whining from Horner about Toto blocking Albon into Williams seat. Just another reason to hate Horner and RBR more. They have *4* seats that they won't give to Albon. Albon wants to go to Williams with Mercedes, where they have ties to their direct competitor. Of course if he goes there you want, no, NEED him to sever ties with RBR. If he feels so bad about Albon, he shouldn't have fucked him so bad and not even given him a AT seat. Just ridiculous trying to make Toto the bad guy when he's the real asshole.

That's exactly my issue with RBR and Horner in particular. All he does is whine and complain about everyone else to make himself look like a better person. That attitude has simply transferred on Max as well as he is starting to do the same things. That interview of Horner's saying he hopes Toto doesn't block Albon was a fucking joke and the hypocrisy was insane. RBR/Max fans are becoming the same way and essentially blaming Merc for everything even when it objectively doesn't make sense, i.e., this whole Bottas saga. Oh and I am sure they won't say Max got lucky once again when Ham's pit stop got delayed and he kept repeatedly getting stuck in traffic when they were trying the undercut strategy and if the tables were turned, we'd be hearing shit like 'luckmilton'. Anyway, I hope Albon does sever his ties with RBR and joins up with Merc if he is going to be at Williams. If he isn't able or willing to, then as much as it sucks, I rather have de Vries come to Williams because at least his loyalty lies with Merc. Horner may have almost ruined poor Albon's career by prompting him at a wrong time and then not even offering him a seat at the second team.

Team principles get paid to whine about other teams, are some of you fucking daft? We see and hear a lot of Horner because he's British and Sky is heavy on Brit everything involved with F1.

Max whining this year? When he has Mercs driving into the side of him, oh the humanity. Better driver and car back to taking poles and winning races.

Albon almost ruined his own career, guy made terrible errors and sucked for the most part, the car didn't do him any favors but Redbull has kept him around and are doing what they can to continue his career. Imagine asking George a year or two about if he wanted to come up to Mercedes right now or waste a couple years driving for a last place team, yeah I'm sure he'd pass and not roll the dice on things panning out.

The whining is fine, it’s the context and hyperbole where I have issues with. Like I said pages back, F1 is a sport funded almost entirely by marketing. What Horner, Marko are doing by borderline fake news shitty context to make others look bad is detrimental to the sport.

Come on Latifi is 2 sec rolling chicane…. He is not even close to GR. If he daddy was really rich like strolls daddy , he could have bought Williams and bought him a seat. Stroll should not be in f1 either… but it is a rich Whitt’s play ground …

If Williams wants the best drivers they should take de vries and Albon and ditch latifi.

And truth be told AR should ditch GIO as well

Toto is being a dick about Williams and albon but Horner deserves it.

I mean Latifi and Stroll probably aren’t WDC material, but they’re far from a moving chicane. Stroll is actually pretty good on a good day. Both suffer from consistency that’s for sure. Stroll could probably find a contract elsewhere if his dad pulls out of F1. Latifi, he’s a solid driver for being a pay driver, and Williams needs the money so they would never be able to have 2 open seats.

Wasn't it already confirmed that GIO won't be returning to F1 next season? From what I've read, he's leaving to race in another circuit.

I'm not convinced it was - Alpha Tauri choose Tsunoda over him. Gasly would have Albon's number for sure.

Do you know if RB released Albon or if he is on loan?

Weird arrangement.
He's officially released by RBR but there's still relationship and that Albon can easily be back to RB.

Goodwill gesture? Kinda shows where Gasly is in the totem pole and they'd rather use Albon over him.

Chinese money coming for Gio's seat

[chongkee_]

No brainer for Alfa if Zhou is bringing in $30 million to the table.

Another potential bomb now is that Vettel is looking to retire at the end of the year.
