Alex_GT Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Good to see an F1 driver being able to compete in other disciplines. Some current F1 drivers (no names mentioned) don't even want to compete in other series through fear of being shown up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Think this is the start of Alonso ducking out of McLaren?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoGlE Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Possibly, think the only reason he's able to miss Monaco is because he's gonna be representing mclaren Honda in Indy. Even if they manage to get there issues sorted I think it's too little too late as far as Alonso is concerned. He's gonna be gone next season, hopefully to another f1 team.

Utter waste of money IMO Last season in Indycar Honda only won 2 out of the 16 rounds, however this season has seen a marked increase in performance from the Honda powered cars, and they have won the first two races so far in this Indycar season.

Style Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 A Bottas pole bodes well for a pretty competitive championship. I hope he goes start to finish tomorrow and get a win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Had to laugh, LH bigging up VB, all genuine smiles apparently. Wonder how how long that will last before it goes sour and cry baby LH throws his toys out 'if' VB actually starts challenging him and beating him. I guess he better refer to his conspiracy book for new excuses now he has a new team mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conorj Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 That was better than i thought it was going to be Definitely looks like an interesting championship may be on the cards. Red bull also looked to have good pace in the first stint before Verstappen's brake failure then Ricciardo died a death on the soft tyres.

formatzero Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Not a bad race,always good when safety car bunches them up.Don't know what's going on with Kimi ,Vettel seems to have got to grips with the spec changes better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I was a tad surprised to hear the excuse from TW about Bottas's over inflated tyres and not being able to bleed some pressure out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conorj Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I laughed at Hamilton's dirty tactics in the pitlane, was a slam dunk penalty there. No denying team orders at Mercedes either with Bottas being told to get out of the way, I doubt Hamilton would do the same if the situation was reversed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Bottas was struggling though and the only way Merc could get the victory was letting Hamilton get past to see if he could catch Vettel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conorj Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Yea it was no doubt the right decision to switch them, I just don't believe Hamilton would have yielded as easily if he got the call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Well i guess in his mind he is the number 1, this is where they have the conflict of interests, racing for themselves and getting the best finish for the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
