🙂🙂🙂

Alonso has 2 titles
Button has 1 title

👋

Michael Diaz4 said:Not at all—God forbid! I just love seeing Ham struggle once in a while, you know? It’s just proof he isn't invincible... Look, I'm just not a fan, so what can you do... 👏

Vettel is supposedly the best, yet he couldn't even get past Rosberg 🤣

And in the last race, Hamilton totally outplayed him with that different strategy 🤣

Michael Diaz4 said:What's a slug...?

Calling him a slug is because he acts like he swept both qualifying and the race—even though he definitely didn't...

Michael Diaz4 said:What can you even do? Alonso totally blew it, and now your other big hope didn't live up to the hype either...😁

McLaren actually picked up some points 👋

Can't even make jokes about them being on par with the BBC anymore 👋

analoghound4 said:He hit the sign... That's enough...

What do you mean "enough"... I'd say they can go straight to hell...

jadeseal7 said:It’s not Nico's fault—it's his race engineers...

And why is Nico acting like he actually earned that win? What a total ljigavac...

Man, if I were in Lewis's shoes... First off, instead of reaching out to Nico on those stairs, I’d be spitting right in his face—and that champagne? I'd smash it just to watch it spray all over the steps

What an absolute ROBBERY, man...

I am SO DONE!!!

And don't even get me started on the FIA—I lost all respect for them ages ago with those incident investigations. It’s like they just weren't doing it before, or maybe they just didn't give a damn...

Jack says the driver isn't even the one handling the clutch at the start—claims they're controlling it from the pit wall

As far as I know, sending telemetry from the pits directly to the car has been banned for ages.

Forecast says it’ll be a bit cloudy tomorrow, but no rain... at least that's what they're calling it. Tibi, don't go looking for excuses for Sebastian Vettel's absolute garbage lap 👋

rowdyrider12 said:Anyone got any thoughts on how things are looking right now? 🙂
Like, what’s the forecast? Is Mr. Consistent going to pull off his third win in a row here? And does Ferrari even stand a chance given those tires?
Who's gonna trigger a yellow flag during Q3?
Forget history... just let it go. 🙂

I'm leaning toward Hamza taking it.
Ferrari doesn't have a prayer—honestly, neither does anyone else.

Really hoping we see some points for McLaren for once.

ruggedhawk20 said:Thank God cameras actually existed back in 1929.

We had video too 😁

I'm talking about that very first turn right after the start.

mellowtiger83 said:Does anyone have a photo or know what they actually did over at the pool complex? They definitely changed something in that area—I haven't been keeping up with the training sessions, so I'm out of the loop...

Not sure what they messed with over there, but man, that first turn really bugs me. They totally ruined it with that grass strip—now people can't even navigate it properly, and you saw how wide that section could be...

What’s the weather looking like for qualifying and the race?

edit: just checked—looks like we're clear of the rain.

Joe Biden, if you really want to keep rambling about Fernando Alonso, just move over to the Fernando Alonso thread, you 🙂
...

Hey Joe, you’re being a handful. Not sure what you're even trying to prove here—I already told you that both Vettel and Lewis Hamilton are way better than Kimi. And look, Lewis Hamilton left Ferrari because he genuinely thinks he'll find more success somewhere else.

ruggedhawk20 said:So you're saying it isn't about having the better driver, but just a better strategy?

Look, in Bahrain, Kimi's strategy totally beat Vettel's. If they had played it the same way, Kimi wouldn't have stood a chance—just look at the first three races and now this one in Spain, where he left him in the dust by a full second during qualifying...

ruggedhawk20 said:If he’s really that much better, then Lewis Hamilton would have cruised to victory in Bahrain without any issues.

Look, Vettel was faster than Kimi, but that doesn't mean he beat him in Bahrain. You can't look at it that way—Kimi was running a totally different strategy, which is why he came out ahead of Vettel. Generally speaking, Vettel is just quicker... you can see that now in Barcelona.

So, he basically screwed himself over when he quit Ferrari.

Right?

Nah. Because Ferrari is just going to end up in second place again.

ruggedhawk20 said:Kimi finished second in Bahrain. Do you think Lewis Hamilton would've taken the win if he was in that car instead of Kimi?

Hard to say... but Lewis Hamilton is definitely a step above Kimi.

Lewis Hamilton, Lewis Hamilton, and Sebastian Vettel are all in that elite tier—the difference between them is basically nothing...
