    Race, was never mentioned.

    Inside the car, Hamilton is top dog. Probably the best ever.

    Outside the place where he earns his very good living, he is a bit of a jerk. Why should people value his opinions based on his driving skills? He is neither qualified, or entitled to share such primitive opinions.

    He is a great F1 driver. His skin color, and mine, do not give us the right to preach to others on unrelated subjects.

    You can bet if he were tweeting that national service should be reintroduced and benefits cheats castrated, then dimmer switch would like him just fine.

    But don't tell me, let me guess, he's what you consider to be left wing, right switch?

    Its such a pity that his success allowed him to abuse his sporting achievements and post bollox on twatter. The two worlds are not connected.

    He is just one of many so-called celebrities to abuse his success by sharing their narrow minded opinions with a gullible public.
    Schumacher and Vettel were just as good in their prime

    Where was Hamilton from 09-13 ? Finishing 4th or 5th

    He's the only black man in F1.

    You don't think he should have an opinion on it?

    Hamilton is a good driver for a perfect car. Very consistent.

    But could he drive an average car to podiums like Senna or Juan Montoya ? Or squeeze everything out of a car like Alonzo ? I guess we'll never know.

    Three races back to back starting with France at the weekend.

    Fortunately the timing with the Euros all works out well.


    Mercedes have vowed to transfer their Baku anger into a strong result at this weekend's French GP as the world champions, amid a fierce battle with Red Bull, bid to bounce back from their worst two-race stretch in nine years.

    A gripping Formula 1 2021 campaign - which is playing host to competitive title duels between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen, and Mercedes and Red Bull - intensifies from this weekend's race at the Paul Ricard circuit in the south of France, the first of three Grands Prix in as many weeks.

    He was also from a poor background but I’m not interested in his opinions on race or poverty, just F1 motor racing, where his expertise is currently unrivaled.
    His F1 pedigree adds nothing to the other subjects.

    His F1 pedigree is precisely what gets the publicity for his causes.

    Do you think this would be in the news if he was a welder?

    Also, the good thing about opinions is you can ignore them if you wish.

    Does anyone have F1 TV Pro ? Thinking of signing up. But this is always what happens. Just like NHL hockey a couple years back. I'll pay my way in and then some technical bullshit will cause me to just use the illegal stream anyway. I hope not but.

    $80 a year is cheap enough if I get most races. But if I sign up and half of it is blacked out ,I'll be smashing by computer

    A friend of mine signed up for something with F1 earlier this year. Then he discovered that he got live timings but not live races. Check what you are buying.

    ^ It looks like it all depends where you live too.

    So Mercedes did a chassis swap and Bottas is faster than Hamilton so far. So Hamilton isn't doing as good with lesser machinery

    Mad Max continues to set the pace.

    Pole alongside Hammy with Bottas and Perez behind them.

    Isn't it nice to see the drivers respecting each other?

    I trust Hamilton will have the edge on race trim over Max?

    Despite the worry of ‘lesser equipment’ due to the routine chassis change.
    Did he swap with Haas?

    Can you try and put that into something that actually makes sense?

    Or do you not know what "parc ferme" means?

    The Mercedes has qualified close to the front of the grid. Usually it fares better in race trim, rather than in qualifying. A bit like giving Max a head start, because Hamilton is a better driver, and the Mercedes runs better over race distance than any other car on the grid.
    Of course, the ineptitude of Bottas does make life awkward for the team on occasion.

    So you don't know what parc ferme is.

    Race trim indeed. How long is it since you followed F1?
