Re: F1 showdown

Max guilty of putting his nose in front of Lewis before the safety car ended?
This race is going to rumble :hehe:

Re: F1 showdown

They were 100% right to get the lapped cars out of the way.
When the safety car pissed off, there was 1 lap left.
The lapped cars had more than 1 lap left.
They couldn't catch up.
Correct decision and the British media are jumping all over it.
If we were watching this in another country with unbiased media, nobody would be making a fuss.

This I get.
What I don't understand is where does the taxi come in?
Is it the safety car....
....or do you mean taxi for Hamilton?

This race will be talked about forever cos of the last lap win.

In my opinion the British media is usually anything but bias towards Hamilton.

Re: F1 showdown

The shortest price bet pre race had to be that the title would be decided in the stewards room or a court room. Apparently, one of the teams involved hired a barrister beforehand = what a contrast to the New Zealand cricket who accepted all of the bad luck (and there was an awful lot of it) in their 2019 World Cup Final with England with great good spirit.

Not just having a go at motor racing there, it’s the way top level sport is going.

Haha. Unlucky Hamilton haha.
If you stopped campaigning politically and stop worrying about back lives matter and gay pride and actually get on with racing you might have been champion.

Imagine if he'd been in a fishing competition and was leading by 5kg going into the final 5 minutes. The judge then declares that the next fish the angler in 2nd place catches is worth 6kg and Sludge has to take his rod out of the water.
He'd be well miffed.

Re: F1 showdown

6kg pike... pfffttt.

And off they go to the Court of Arbitration in Sport!

They will be a long way behind Cardiff City FC vs FIFA/Nantes in the queue!

Weren't the FIA effectively marking their own homework?

Their decision is no surprise, but they surely broke their own regulations?

Still, on the bright side at least Nugent is happy - and he won't have to think about racism or homophobia for a while!

In a word, yes.
I think Michael Masi has been weak. Not just weak in this race, but weak all season.
Not sure why the team principals are allowed to bellow in his ear and try and influence things either.
I think this could be Masi's last race.

Re: F1 showdown

Mercedes changed their engine 3 or 4 races ago and have won every race since. It made them faster than red bull.
Christian Horner has just said the guy who changed the circuit has improved every part for Mercedes.
He said its David and Goliath .
I get he could be trying to play a fast one.
I had a few quid on Mercedes for constructors championship and Hamilton to win the championship double 3 or 4 races ago
Barring a disaster I am confident that bet will come in...

BET 365 have refunded my bet , called it a bet credit .
How strange is that ?
