Formula 1 The F1 jibber jabber thread.

The earlier start than usual nearly caught me out.

For fucks sake. Turn it on, literally just as Hamilton crosses the line.

Best of all time, different cars, different era etc but you can only race in the car you're in against the opponents out on the track and Hamilton has done all that.

 

[caLLous]

Absolutely perfectly driven race from Hamilton. He was over a pit stop behind the leaders at one point but stayed on those inters for 52 laps. Based on the first few laps it felt like he was going to finish with enough points over Bottas (who had a fucking nightmare from start to finish) to take the Championship but it might feel like a bit of a damp squib but he absolutely bossed it.

What a race, some amazing drives from so many drivers. Well done Lewis, totally deserved!

The earlier start than usual nearly caught me out.

Same, I literally googled the start time and saw it was on lap 4/58. Luckily I was recording it.

Gonna drop this one in this thread, since it's a petrolhead thing, includes Jensen Button, but for a twist throws in a bit of gaming... James Baldwin, sim racer, racing in RL:

LOL @ Ferrari

 

[Deebs]

Fuck me, hope whoever that was is ok.

 

[Rubber Bullets]

Lack of replay is concerning

 

[Deebs]

It is Grosjean.

 

[Deebs]

Looks ok in the medical car. Thank fuck.

 

[Deebs]

 

[caLLous]

We haven't seen anything like that for years.

 

[Rubber Bullets]

There'll be an inquest into that, so unusual

 

[Deebs]

FUck me the car was torn into 2

 

[Rubber Bullets]

Jesus!

 

[caLLous]

Jesus, it ripped the car in half. Unbelieveable that he's walked away from that.

 

[Deebs]

The front half of the car is embedded in the barrier. Thank fuck for the halo and all the safety features. A miracle that he walked away from this.

 

[Deebs]

 

[Rubber Bullets]

That is horrendous! Incredible damage to the barrier

 

[Deebs]

 

[Deebs]

 

[Rubber Bullets]

How can those barriers be considered safe?

 

[Rubber Bullets]

Surely should have been tyres there?

 

[Embattle]

Certainly stunning and impressive as well.

That cockpit is just fucking amazing but looking at the state of it is fucking awful.

 

[Rubber Bullets]

That cockpit is just fucking amazing but looking at the state of it is fucking awful.

Almost inconceivable that anyone could have got out of that alive

It would of been nice but it is technically a straight.
