Rather a lightweight penalty as well considering his recent record! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosha Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Do they not get points on there Super Licence???Yes but no driver as hit 12 in a season yet. Vestappen may yet be the first.Sent from my iris 505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Kvyat still has the most penalty points :) Verstappen has only 3. I wonder if he is going to get any from yesterday's collision. http://f1statblog.co.uk/f1-penalty-points/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much road rage, too much chancing it, until we see drivers sitting out races things will not improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not racing, it was watching a train drive by. Not entertaining, unless one is Sheldon Cooper. I'd be happy if the drivers would each do few 5-10 second mistake spins on the track on each race. Sometimes taking off their opponents, sometimes not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it was rather boring race prior the Red Bull accident, and even after that it was just few laps of racing. Last year's race at Baku was a real mayhem and good to watch. The only racing we saw was between Max and Riccardo. Very unfortunate what happened to Bottas. I'm not sure if he deserved the win as he got the first place due safety car. Then again, it would have been interesting to see how he would have managed to take Hamilton and Vettel after his tire change to ultrasoft tires. Did Räikkönen show that he is worthy to be the Ferrari driver for the year 2019 as well? He is actually getting faster, even compared to Vettel.

Basil B Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Well some drivers had bad luck, some drivers took too many chances, some drivers had good luck. It was Lewis's turn for good luck, he needed it, Max in post match interview looked like a school boy waiting for the call to the headmasters study for six of the best... and poor Bottas that was bad luck.

Mosha Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Max fan boy Horner says both were to blame. That race was the accident waiting to happen. The way Newey and Horner were exchanging glances throughout the race was telling. As was Newey leaving the pit wall. I think Red Bull might need 2 replacements next year. Daniel said he was not talking to another team, he might now.https://es.pn/2KpfmdJSent from my iris 505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basil B Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Quote Fernando Alonso described his drive in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, in which he took a badly damaged McLaren to a seventh-place finish, as "one of the best races of my life". Only now, though, can it be revealed exactly how good a performance it was. The Spaniard slipped under the radar in the immediate aftermath of the race in Baku, probably because events at the front were so dramatic. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/43973625 Hope he gets to taste the champers soon...

That would require 50% of the Merc, Ferrari and Red Bull drivers to fail and no other team to have a great race. I don't see that happening. Is Ferrari now the fastest car on the track? Will Kimi get another year extension to his contract? He has been driving as well as his teammate Vettel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
