Onboard awesomeness!…

Canada Goose off the menu, Turkey off the menu. If this was Christmas dinner I’d choose British Beef.

Not so awesome… That’ll buff out

How in the name of all that’s holy does the 312 tail shot work? I can see the shadow of the mount, but not the mount itself – looks awesome, can’t wait to hear on full loud! 🙂

Digitally removed? The mount is in a fixed position in the shot whereas the shadow moves around.

I don’t suppose there is any other UK circuit that could step up as a replacement, supposing that infection rates here remain low?

Click the link below the video – all explained there! 🙂

Great, thanks! 🙂

I dont think so. It was discussed last year and Donningyon isnt up to standard, and if that isnt then I cant see Brands or Rockingham or wherever being either.
Maybe two at Silverstone again, different layouts possibly

Ricciardo’s suggesting having a double round in Australia to end the season.

I don’t know if that’s a serious suggestion or not. I don’t know if they would be able to host two races in Melbourne because it’s a one-off street circuit, not a permanent venue. No idea if they have any other circuits up to F1 grade. I remember seeing something last year about a new circuit (maybe down near Adelaide) that was proposed as a potential replacement for Melbourne. Being the end of the season and summer down there, that would give them the option of hosting multiple races to fill in for any other cancellations.

I’d be tempted to say just leave the race out then.

If it had been Austria next round they could have ran a double header there.

Buts its France and I can’t see anyone wanting to run to races at Paul Ricard

They could go back to Mugello.

Isn’t Roclingham a housing estate now? Could be interesting I suppose!

Every now and again I entertain daft notions like “I could drive an F1 car, no worries” and then I watch videos like that one up there and I realise “no, no I couldn’t”

Isn’t Roclingham a housing estate now? Could be interesting I suppose!

it’s currently a car park.

Is it as big as the Caesar’s Palace car park, though? 😉

Back to the old routine im Portugal then?

Normal service resumes.

2.1s slower than MSC – guys totally out of his depth.

His dad will need to buy F1 for him to win the championship. Great move to hire Vettel to make Stroll look good

Oh dear, Ricciardo out in Q1, a second behind Norris.

blimey Lewis!….

oh dear, Alonso battered by Ocon. Mr Saturday so so close

2.1s slower than MSC – guys totally out of his depth.

I wonder GPDA might even suggest he leaves. Been a lloonnggg time since any driver/team has been pulled up on safety grounds for being too shit/slow

I wonder GPDA might even suggest he leaves.

His dad’s pumping millions into the sport. As long as he’s just providing comedy relief and not running drivers off the track, they’re probably happy to have him there.

look a bit tricky out there today….

He’s already pissed off half the field with qualifying antics, I wonder if he has many allies. Are those millions helping anyone other than Haas?

Are those millions helping anyone other than Haas?

Having 10 teams is better for the sport than having 9. Having more money in circulation is better than less. Having a comedy relief driver makes for good tv during dull points in the commentary.

He was only half a second slower than MSC in the end. You could argue Latifi is the laughing stock – in his 2nd year with Williams and can’t get close to Russell. And he’s been in and around F1 a good few years now.

And Mazespin is positively grade A material compared to some of the jokers who tried to qualify F1 cars in the 90s! 🙂

And where does Ricciardo go if Lando keeps showing him up every weekend!!? Could be a career defining season.

Ricciardo to Williams Hass or Ferrari B team. He will come good as its early days. Give the honey badger a break cos he dont give a s**t

He was only half a second slower than MSC in the end

…and well inside the 107% rule.

lewis amd his tyres are warming to this

**** me! what a pass

Hamilton proving again why he’s above the rest. Vettel meanwhile, damaged goods?

should be interesting to see Bottas vs Max

Mazepin is an absolute liability

Well that was dull!
