  • Brave by Ocon. Those Inters must be nearly slicks by now.

    It’s not helping Norris’ slim hopes of catching Verstappen for the title, which I would like to see, but it’s been an incredibly entertaining race day. 

    Interlagos so often delivers. Between its geography/climate and overtaking friendly layout it’s makes for such a great track

    Proves to be the smart move. Red flag = free tyre change. 
  • They’ve avoided too much criticism I think partly because they’ve not been front runners for so long, but I think when the dust settles on this season the only conclusion will be McLaren have not capitalized on how good their car is. Too many driver and strategy errors along the way. It’s been Ferrari-esque at times. They’re still learning how to win.

    Choice of tyres through the rest of the race will be be try interesting

    Verstappen nailed on for this now. Hope the person that quoted the 12/1 odds earlier lumped on big time. 

    Ferrari doing Ferrari things by pitting Leclerc early, putting him straight into traffic on tyres that were then unsuitable for the 10 mins he was out there. Hold out or put him on wets and he's in a much better position

    Yes, that was mental.

    This race is absolutely wild. Hulkenberg DQed now for receiving assistance and continuing

    Standing start would be a nightmare for Lando

    Feels like this race might never end!
  • What a horrible few laps for Bearman, his engineer sounds to be doing a good job of coaching him

    rest of the race is a free hit to get used to these conditions. He’s experienced a lot this race which should help next year

    Yeah I agree... the experienced drivers like Sainz have struggled, the other rookie in Colapinto has had a crash - Its nothing against Bearman's skill level today... Just a big learning curve

    What a day Norris as had. Nearly knocked out in Q1. Recovered to get pole. Overtaken into the first bend. Looked like he might recover to win. Stopped at a bad time and got unlucky with a red flag. Gets in front of Russell. Then fucks it on a restart and is now 7th.

    Kind of sums up his season.

    Rolling or standing, he just sucks at race starts.

    Max had been great but they all just move out of the way for him.
  • Credit to Max... But what a race for Alpine.

    That’s why he’s going to be a 4 time champion (still a wanker though)

    That's absolutely enormous financially.
