Enjoyable weekend so far and a rainy mess tomorrow? Here for it.

I am starting to research Goodwood perhaps for next year and I hope to meet a lot of you then! Wondering if a Rolls Royce tour is feasible that time of year.

Good to keep the Goodwood chat happening @mclaincausey
I would be up for it!

[Bridger]

Dominant race by the papaya daddy

[mclaincausey]

Yeah the racecraft and nerve edges he has on Lando were on full display.

This is Oscar’s year

[Giles]

I'm hoping it's not. It's not that I don't like him, but I think this maybe Lando's one chance, and i would like to see him do it......

[mclaincausey]

@Giles

I feel like last year was Lando’s to win but the “two #1s” bullshit, strategic misfires even beyond that flawed premise, and his own mistakes (in that order) torpedoed his chance.

I agree with this, but he needs to find his inner mongrel and get his elbows out.

I feel like he can be a bit too self-critical and reflective, which are not necessarily the best ingredients to win championships.

OK. Second chance.

I feel it is similar to my feelings of why I would like Lewis to win another, to right the wrongs,

[mclaincausey]

@Giles again,

[Bridger]

Coincidentally, today is exactly one year since Lewis won his last GP at Spa.

[Danimal506]

@Giles I can’t argue with that. I would love to see Lewis win it in a Ferrari!

[louisbosco]

@Danimal506 he would be canonised in Italy if that happens. for my sake and yours, I hope he does..

[Danimal506]

@louisbosco Praise be to Saint Hamilton

[louisbosco]

@Danimal506 there, there. let's not get ahead of ourselves...

[Danimal506]

@louisbosco Hahahah I’ll stick with Sir Lewis for now

[Bridger]

Well played Lando. Well done McLaren for letting them rip.

Seems the only similarly paired driver team

[louisbosco]

fuck the Ferrari strategist/ engineers/ team principal

[mclaincausey]

Great race. Huge from Lando. Gutted for Charles and Lewis. Ferrari are clowns. Why can’t their F1 team be more like their WEC team? Just embarrassing.

Surely the Ferrari execs must have asked this question. They need to sort this shit out before 2026.
