It’s been absolutely peeing down most of the day today.

The local forecast for tomorrow is rain and storms from 2am up until race time!

Can’t wait to sit in the rain all day!

There is a case to not wrap up the championship right away so.

Racing in the rain is always more dramatic so let's go!

Suzuka would be very fitting for it to happen as it's unlikely to be at the SGP.

Read some c*ap in the Sun paper about overspending in F1 teams. As far as RB are concerned Horner has laughed off overspending as BS as he's confident RB's accountants, like Hannah's stat predictions, are razor sharp in their sum up's

Just saw it and Max had to save a bit of fuel for the Fia sample.Chas's gold helmet looks great I must say:LOVE, no WAR. If RB can't win then it's Chas for me to stay ahead of wingeing wolf man to get more points away from Merc.

Agreed. I absolutely hate this nowadays Football/NFL hooligan F1 fan behaviour. There was a time when you had your personal favourite but you respected all drivers.

I can't wait until the day HAM retires, his fans are a cancer to the sport.

You notice how good it's been between LEC, RUS and VER on the podium?

Yes, the atmosphere dramatically changed this year.

And I see similarities towards Alonso and Nico Rosberg: they also had to battle with Hammy, as teammates but for place in the WDC and are not a fan of him (especially Nico)

Reminds me of that pic you posted with HAM lying down on the floor in the race finish room with that same cheeky smile as Max stepped over him, so funny.

Just read Max said his final aborted lap was 2.7secs quicker than his fastest Q3 lap.

No wonder he was pissed. Also his second to last fast lap that the team told him to also abort, was easily a pole position time.

Running out of fuel is a bonehead Ferrari-type mistake.
