      I’m a huge Lewis fan, so I’m still rooting for him. Saw him win the championship in Abu Dhabi and I’m more than happy to go for a drink with him anytime.

      Who’s looking forward to the new Saudi track with a 20-storey high first corner. Get me in that crazy swimming pool!

              The Mad Ring was not as crazy as I thought it would be. Lots of corners, to the left and right.....with maximum quantity of close walls on both sides. One of the tracks of all time.....
              so,
              Baku will be more interesting.....right?

                There’s a lot to like about Isack Hadjar

                Formula 1 drivers, eh?

                They don’t make ’em like they used to.

                Fifty years after Niki Lauda was burnt to a crisp and returned a few weeks later – looking like a roast chicken, as one F1 reporter put it at the time – here comes Isack Hadjar taking a whole month away with a hurty wrist.

                          He IS consistently starting from the back of the pack and DNFing, yes. Lance gets a bad rap, the problem is clearly Newey, and his Honda-powered Aston....

                          If it weren't for Alonso having the same problems.....

                                    I did a walking tour of Monaco yesterday. Max, Charles and Lance all have an apartment in this place 🤷🏻♂

                                    Apparently it is Lance's favourite place to crash 😉

                                          @Bridger I remember them doing the parade this year and Max is on camera pointing out to one of the younger drivers exactly which apartment was his. lol

                                            Ha, @alexxedge, it is a very small world in F1.

                                            About half the grid are residents of Monaco and as pro sportspersons they also don't have to spend 183 days there a year to retain status, so who knows how much time they are actually there. [There are nicer places to live]
