As for Kimi, there are all sorts of rumors. Claire Williams mentioned they might wait until the end of the season to announce the lineup 🙂
mistybear87 said:Things are getting pretty chaotic at the US Grand Prix, at least in the media center. A bat flew into the room, and then the power went out for about twenty minutes. 🤣
The track is still super dusty, and everyone in the paddock is whispering that Kimi has already signed and we're just waiting on the official news. 🙏
mistybear87 said:Hamilton and Perez got penalized for ignoring double yellow flags. 🤣🤣🤣
Brian Campbell36 said:Kamui Kobayashi (Sauber) is starting in seventh, while Schumacher takes eighth—apparently, according to the official statement from the Elizabeth Hughes, it was all a matter of tire management;

Button really squeezed every ounce of performance out of his car today, though one has to admit that sometimes a little bit of luck is just part of the game;

The reason I find Vettel so grating is becoming even clearer now; he’s actually bragging about taking first place despite having a crash yesterday;

hollowgull5 said:Kobayashi didn't even manage to pull a qualifying lap through to Q3, not even Schumacher could do that... 😉
And honestly, how on earth did Kobayashi end up sitting in 10th, I have zero clue...
It'll all be cleared up tomorrow once they sort out the nonsense... 😁
redheron12 said:I was just thinking about how much things have changed—it’s funny how life works like that—but I suppose we all have our own ways of navigating through it. kaže:
That’s pretty much how I used to handle things—though I can't really pull that off anymore; I've definitely gotten older. 🧐
Just constant spamming and trolling—it’s honestly exhausting to deal with. 🤣

mistybear87 said:Honestly, I'd love for this to count toward points. I've got some money riding on it, hope they rank ahead of the Steelers 😬
but maybe I'd sacrifice that cash just to see one more spectacle 😛
ruggedfox28 said:Wait, wasn't that from 2013...? 🤔
Casey Long2 said:Is Lewis Hamilton actually putting in the effort to prove he’s an idiot, or does it just come naturally to him? 🤦
Michael Lee4 said:Martin: "Does Michael really need to be flying through the air in the middle of the night at his age?" 🤣 🤣 🤣
Michael Lee4 said:Every Canadian race in the rain turned out to be quite a show for the fans. ☕
Michael Lee4 said:Can someone drop the link where I actually said I was summoning rain? 🤷
I was just saying this track would be more interesting if it were wet, rather than just being a procession when it's dry...
EDIT: Oh, I see what they're saying about the fans now... honestly, who cares, maybe they'll all get soaked to the bone ☕ Jebateled, they're already dealing with the weather at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and they're still worrying about getting rained on... such a bunch of complainers 🤦

Piquet 🙏 🙏 🙏

The car definitely needs work if they want to be competitive with Red Bull.
Alonso is a great find, and I’m pretty sure nobody else in his position would have delivered better results—not last year, and not this year. That's just my take.
Massa needs (or needed) the best or second-best car on the grid to actually do anything. So, what good is having a driver like that?
I like him as a person, but his string of bad results is just getting too long and has pushed past my limit of tolerance. This business is too expensive to keep putting up with this.
That’s rational, managerial thinking. Sure, it sounds fine in theory.
Personally, I’d prefer a more balanced, competitive lineup—basically, someone closer to Alonso's level. Racing is one of those things where the best person doesn't always win. Often, it comes down to a whole bunch of external factors, both on and off the track.
Well, that’s where my sympathy for Massa ends. I honestly don't see any scenario or set of circumstances where he manages to pull off a win. It seems to be the opposite. No matter the situation, he consistently struggles and loses. Too consistently. Treating it otherwise would just be being pessimistic.
How does Button even win a race?
If Massa stays through 2012, it’ll probably only be because that's what Alonso wants. I wouldn't love it, but he’s earned that kind of treatment.
stormybadger8 said:That’s all well and good, but I don't see the logic in a team keeping a driver who is this mediocre. Besides, that message can only really be sent once or twice a year. It used to be that Massa had to be told to let Alonso pass when he was being lapped, rather than Massa just letting him by.🤣
I think it’s high time they replaced him with someone better.😳
And as for letting him through in those situations, there are plenty of subtler ways to slot him behind Alonso. It isn't rocket science. 😬

stormybadger8 said:Massa is easily the worst Number 2 driver on any top team. Honestly, he needs to get kicked out. It's surprising he hasn't been yet. 😳
