Yup, good thing we have Mr Baker around here to explain this to us
non-racing people who wouldn't understand because we've never raced an
open car before ...

I've got to give it to Hamilton today.

That was completely bad luck with Magnussen—no fault to either driver, I
thought, and to come back from 19th to 5th when his team thought that
they could perhaps have made 8th (7th after the retirement of Leclerc)
was really good driving.

The rest of the year could be very interesting if Mercedes really has
found some form.

Wow.

You're not at ALL butthurt.

:-)

If you still needed convincing, todays race proves that the drunk blind mice running F1 have actually stubbled into a good aero/tire rule set.

As for DotD; Hamilton had a great recovery after being hit sadly marred by that team warning at the end. Russel put up a sterling defense for lap after lap.

But I'll give DotD to the race winner this time, way to overcome the balky DRS.

Yes, two fantastic recovery drives, though VER not from quite such a
deficit. But ups also to PER and RUS .

Maybe they should have? The life taken out of the engine may have got him a win down the line
rather than a 5th place. Also if that engine DID loose coolant in the last few laps it may have
buggered it.

As admirable as Hamilton's race was, it just shows that F1 continues to be the have and have nots. Ferrari has finally gotten it's mojo back, but none of the other teams have really closed the gap.

What a very silly idea that was - almost as mind numbingly daft as the
"head-cam" which ignores the fact that drivers eyes act independently of
head position!

Indeed they do...

....but you can still see from watching the "head-cam" video drivers:

turning their heads to look at the upcoming apex

turning their head to each side to keep track of a following car.

Yup.

We won't know the answer to that for a few races at least.

A month passes quickly and yet the first reply I see is still as
ill-informed and childish as the ones which caused me to bin you
previously.

Back in the bin, Liarboy.

Let's see if you are still such stupid little cunt next month.

Why would you believe that Toto Wolff would tell anything straight?

I agree, wasting time showing that drone footage when they could have been showing better quality
footage. Just because something can be done doesn't mean that it should. Unfortunately they said
it's going to be used for at least two more Grands Prix this year in a trial to test it's viability.
