Swampy442 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Should be like MotoGP, exceed track limits, get a penalty, even in qualifying. But Max did really well to finish 4th from his grid place! Hamilton world champion in Mexico I reckon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
formatzero Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Yeh got to feel for him,fantastic drive .Botas seems nowhere compared to Hamilton,at least Rosberg could challenge him from time to time,no idea why they gave him another years contract!

Hamilton world champion in Mexico I reckon Yep it’s highly unlikely he will finish less than 5th which is all he needs to win the championship regardless of where vettel comes.

Just goes to show nothing is certain in Motorsport ! But it didn’t matter in the end and a thoroughly deserved world championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Well done Lewis and thoroughly deserved I love reading the Facebook comments on the F1 page, full of foreigners screaming conspiracy every time there's an incident. They were going mental yesterday claiming Seb deliberately caused Hamilton's puncture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spunkmeyer Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Nice one Lewis. Vertsappen was awesome and gonna be in the mix this time next year if RB can give him a reliable car. Did Bottas race yesterday? I can't remember hearing him mentioned or do anything yesterday and his diffuser was working perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Congratulations to Hamilton for winning his 4th title and to Max for winning the race, shame it wasn't a clean fight between them though which spoilt it for me. After Vettel hit Max and damaged his wing did he then deliberately hit Lewis as he had nothing to lose as he'd need a new wing anyway ?????? hmmmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 It's an interesting argument isnt it. Like DNK said, his wing was already gone before the corner. Hamilton was pretty much already past vettel after but then he seemed to just drive into the side of him. Standard operating procedure for vettel and surprised it didnt get investigated more.

formatzero Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Ferrari dropped the ball so denied us an exiting end to the season.Verstappen is great at mixing it up,love the way he races.Botas has not delivered and neither has Kimi, both not in the same league as their teammates.Was surprised to hear Lewis ask his team if anyone was managing to overtake when Vettel was charging through the field.A great result for Hamilton lucky of course that Rosberg wasn't his team mate;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Ive got to say, watched the on board from Vettell's car in GIF form, and at best he gave Lewis zero racing room and at worst, didn't avoid a collision. Bottas's car was well clear round the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annabella Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Great result for Lewis, keeps gaining the records. Thought Bottas would have given a better fight this season, just good job Vettel gave a chase, pity Ferrari ballsed it up, would have been interesting in Brazil etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdavies Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 It will be interesting now as Martin Brundle said, the championships have been won so there is nothing to loose. Hopefully the racing gets a bit more intense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Kubica testing the Williams at Abu Dhabi ! Is it the sympathy vote or does he have major financial backing that Williams cannot ignore. As although I was a fan of Kubica in F1 he was not 'that' fast back then. I can only imagine being years away from F1 and the awful injury he sustained he is not on a par with someone else of his experience. I hope my opinon is wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 He tested quicker than stroll didnt he? Although they'd never can him due to his rich dad. Massa leaving however, 2 nice payers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 He was 4th fastest in Hungary, he did a similar time to Palmer but on a quicker tyre, still 1.4 secs off Vettels fastest time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have thought that was settled or he'd never get a test in the car if he couldn't bring whatever Williams req Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Not bad, then you look and see Sirotkin is only half a second slower on softs. And Vettell is 2 seconds faster on the same tyres. Ive always said its a bad choice bringing him back, his arm is disabled, and theres probably more capable, younger drivers to bring through. But as always its who's bringing the biggest bucks, a la Stroll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
