That was funny, especially George saying one of his watches had gone missing and he thought he knew who the culprit was....

Just waiting for Mo to ban alcohol in the paddock and insist all the Grid girls wear burkasHamilton said he had reached out to FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem on Friday to try to resolve the stand-off but had not managed to get through.
"Sports stars" and administrators really are oblivious to how they come across to the fans and public in general.
An interesting perspective on the Miami race.

It was different, that's for sure. I do not think I have ever seen Martin Bundle so uncomfortable and awkward. The paddock was a madhouse before the race, and at on point he thought he found Patrick Mahomes. So he saw the tallest head in the crowd and made a beeline for it. He started talking to some random stranger like he was Mahomes until he realized it was some dude named Palo. I love Brundle, but seeing him so awkward was a bit weird.
Realistic in American terms, yes.
It needs people, glamour and money, according to the writer. It does not need a charity case. A non too subtle dig at Haas.
Americans really want someone to die, in order for the sport to be a success in the US. Everything else is just window dressing.
That's a bit of a stretch. For the sport to succeed in America it needs a shitload of fat-arsed TV viewers sat in their "lazy-arsed-boy" chairs pretending they even vaguely understand what is going on, with adverts every five seconds for some constipation drug, chairlift, credit card loan, commemorative MAGA coin, etc., and completely meaningless statistics on the screen at any given time, like the number of laps completed without pit radio or something, or graphics showing that Haas are better than Ferrari because they have more insects splattered on their windscreen or some such shit.
It's nailed on now that Andretti will be able to properly fund a US team so that should be interesting too, assuming Liberty and the FIA go for it (and why wouldn't they?).
The next post may be brought to you by my little bitch Spamdreth
did they ban the hotties from the start grid?
Bahaha Aston Martin revealed its major upgrade at the Spanish GP. Its a Red Bull copy. I like it
Christian Horner has confirmed Red Bull will conduct an internal investigation to check whether Aston Martin have copied their F1 car, and says any transfer of intellectual property would be "totally unacceptable" and a "criminal offence."
Aston Martin debuted a raft of upgrades for their AMR22 on Friday at the Spanish GP, but the car has drawn comparisons to the front-running Red Bull due to its strikingly similar concept.
The FIA said they had completed a pre-race legality check of the car and absolved Aston Martin of wrongdoing, although Red Bull - having lost many members of staff to the team including head of aerodynamics Dan Fallows - are still suspicious, as off-track controversy rumbles on in Barcelona.

^ A designer is allowed to provide his design ideas to a new company. I think this was tested in law many years ago.
Erm, not the same thing.
In the case you cited there was someone (spy) working at Ferrari who gave company secrets away. Industrial espionage that resulted in spy being sacked and Mclaren being fined.
In this case the aerodynamics engineer moved company and supplied his ideas to the new company. He is allowed to supply the same advice although not previous company blueprints. It may be hard to prove the latter though.
Brilliant finish to Q3 with Sainz caught in a Red Bull spit roast.
Stewards will be looking into that.
Pepe on pole alongside his Ferrari teammate.
Sir Lewis has gone back to looking like he's trying to skateboard in gravel.
I don't mind seeing Max qualify 4th. It will make the race interesting considering Ferrari has bad tire degradation. And Shall Leclair isn't very good at saving tires
Two thinks I'm hoping for today:
1. Rain in Monaco
2. Skidmark fucks off.
Race starts at 8pm Thailand (followed by the PlayOff Final at 10:30pm - that could be a pissy night!).
The Sky "experts" have just spent the last 20 minutes whining like stuck pigs because the new race control delayed the start and allowed all the drivers to change tyres. Now it's fucking pissing down and they've red flagged it so they can go onto wets.
And now said Sky commentators are saying it's "caught everyone by surprise".
No, just you, you fucking idiots.
