Hello; Been trying to figure out what you mean by this comment. I get the obvious thing of him walking away with deep pockets. So regardless of his performance on the track he wins at the bank. Maybe a video of him shoveling money would work.

Hello; Interesting weekend so far. Still amazed at Max being on pole. His team screwed up in the sprint race and got him a ten second penalty. Maybe he will be penalty free in the main race.
Antionelli (sp) is showing some speed. Looks like MB is the winner for having him it that seat. Guess LH is a rapidly fading memory for the team.

Hello; As far as i am concerned they ought to start Max in front of the two McLarens every race, then let us sit back and watch. The Mclarens likely will get past him eventually as they are the class of the field. But the spectacle of today's first bunch of laps made the race for me.
The mouth pieces saw the first lap incident with Max and the Mclaren and their first utterance was Max was OK. Then they talked themselves into max was at fault. Then the stewards surprised me and then by letting it be a racing incident. Could it be fair play is about to break out in the steward's room?
Russell got lucky with the pit stop under a virtual safety car and got a 3rd.
I will leave a more detailed discussion of LH & Ferrari to the LH fans on here. My comment is LH is not a happy camper. Maybe Ferrari are not happy as well.
Antonelli (sp) can drive the MB fast. He is likely worth more chances to round out the rest of being a winning deriver.
Tsunoda (sp) is not doing well nor is he able to get the pace out of the RB. Next????

Hello; looks like Russell gets to keep the 3rd place. According to one article i read today the telemetry showed he lifted off the throttle even if the car did not slow down much, if at all. At least such is the way I took the statement.

Not a Hamilton fan per se, but I don’t think he gets any of the blame. His performance is still very good, considering. With as bad as Ferarri is at communication and decision making, I can only imagine what goes on in trying to ge the car adjusted for the drivers.
Finally got my hat. However I think a clown mask might be more appropriate.

Not this dude. He is an awesome driver, but more importantly he is one hell of a human being.

Hello; I am going to make some assumptions so such will compromise this post. I saw, from watching race coverage, that Ferrari sucked at race management the last few seasons. Also had an inkling of the communication problem. This awareness from thousands of miles away and only minutes of exposure to the situation. Begs a question. How did Hamilton and his close advisors not know of these shortcomings.
I sort of get as an active driver for MB, Hamilton may have been too focused on the driving last season to look around much. But he appears to have had time for
But it is what it is and both Ferrari & Hamilton are stuck with each other for a while. If Hamilton somehow thought he could fix Ferrari, such is an unfortunate sort of hubris.

'Not natural anymore' - The flaw exposed in F1's new racing rules
Hello; Interesting read. I am not saying the conjectures are 100% correct but the point seems to be now drivers are driving to the rules and such is not natural. My first response is to agree with much of the sentiment.
Anymore the race talking heads start a discussion of "who owned the corner" if things do not go well for one of the drivers. I cannot help but think this trend started back a few seasons ago when Lewis & Max had some of their more famous battles. I have gone back and forth with Lewis lovers on this thread about it, especially the pass which gave Max his first championship or according to some "stole a championship " from Lewis.
I have had the feeling since that season the Lewis faction have wanted to fix the rules as if somehow new regulations will hurt Max and fix things, so Lewis gets back his deserved championship.

He is, indeed. Though, frankly, I wasn't too fond of his overt support for the BLM movement, nor of the cheap show that he put on back then, with the kneeling & all, expecting the others to do the same and commenting when some didn't. My opinion about BLM isn't very flattering, and sadly that opinion has rubbed a bit off on him when he did that.
