And you've decided he's a man simply because...? 😬

because I wasn't checking out the profile 🤣 just looking at the handle 😁
but hey... people assume I'm a dude all the time too 🙂 jeez 😁

sorry, Chris Chase5 😍 😁

Trust me, no woman would ever pick the username Chris Chase5😁😁😁

She's claiming she's a woman ☕ 😁

Chris Chase5 said:I have to admit, there’s something about this route that really draws me in; I actually found myself quite fond of it from that perspective. I'll likely find myself heading out that way in a few years...

Yeah, I was thinking about that today too 🙏 It seems a bit wild 🙏

Maybe just pair it with a ten-day trip to Singapore 😍

😂 you crazy thing 🤣 I mean, I was thinking the exact same thing just a second ago—but then I figured... yeah, better not say it out loud 😳 😉

That was a hell of a race! 🙏

Fernando Alonso made a brilliant move back into the championship hunt. 🙏
Even Vettel, despite his collision, wasn't playing second fiddle today. 🙏
I found myself enjoying Mark Webber's pace during the first half, while Robert Kubica really held his own in the latter part. 🙏

Tough break for Lewis Hamilton. Look, I’m not exactly his biggest supporter, but he got caught out by bad luck this time through no fault of his own. 😢

Just kidding, Chris Chase5 😘 😬

Though I guess I still have my doubts 😁

mistybear87 said:Actually, Vettel did it at Silverstone 2009. ☕

And wouldn't you know it, Alonso managed to pull that off twice after your mentioned one, specifically at Monaco and Monza 2007, plus once earlier at Silverstone 2006. So, that would make this his fifth career hat-trick today, wouldn't it? 🙏

Then there's also Button in Malaysia 2009, Hamilton in Japan 2007 and China 2008, along with Massa in Bahrain/Spain 2007 and Valencia/Brazil 2008.

That brings us to a total of 13 hat-tricks since that last one from Schumacher. 😉

And honestly? I'll believe just about anything these days.

Recently, Blažičko completely botched a statement regarding Michael Schumacher and his final hat-trick, which got me thinking—maybe someone actually whispered the right stat to him. 😳

It was honestly quite satisfying watching Robert Kubica effortlessly glide right past Felipe Massa's car like it wasn't even there.🙏

mistybear87 said:I actually think it might have been more dangerous to pull into the pit lane with a burning car than to just clip the barrier like he did here. 😉

Obviously. It’s just that our commentators totally missed the point entirely.

Anyway, just my two cents, but thank God Danny Sullivan was working with the stewards today. He actually understands how street circuits work, so they didn't ruin the race with a bunch of pointless penalties. Though, I’m not so sure Kamikazashi wouldn't have been flagged for shoving Grandpa into the barrier if he hadn't ended up wrecking himself a bit... seemed way too aggressive to me, but hey, they haven't replayed the footage yet...

But you have to admit, he really did give Grandpa a hell of a shove into the wall.🙏

I guess I’m one of those people who secretly enjoys seeing the neighbor's cow drop dead. But, seriously...

My take? Mark Webber is an idiot. It honestly baffles me how he gets away with such blatant nonsense without facing any real consequences.
McLaren just had bad luck; they aren't solely responsible for losing that position.
As for what happened to Lewis, it was a total disaster. Personally, I’d call his move to overtake Webber a masterstroke—not just for this race, but in general. It was a brilliant pass: cunning, aggressive, and classic Lewis-esque. And let’s be clear, he did it by overtaking his direct, biggest rival right there on the track.

Of course, all my rambling would actually mean something if the overtake had worked. I think it did work, but the reckless, inconsiderate Webber refuses to yield under any circumstances. He’s got that scenario burned into his brain. To him, the shame of being overtaken is somehow worse than crashing into or damaging someone else. That's just how he is.
But still, it’s genuinely unfair that he walks away scot-free.
The only thing that might balance the scales is when the "other" drivers from the rival teams step up.

P. S. If Mark Webber happens to vanish from the public eye, the first person you should suspect of kidnapping him for a little old-school, heavy-handed interrogation involving some blunt force and rapid acceleration is definitely me 😠

🤣😂😂

So, suddenly Webber isn't so charming with all that aggressive driving of his? 🤣

Wow, how quickly things change. 😬

Don't worry, I have a gut feeling Felipe Massa will deal with Webber at the next race.😬

It seems bizarre to me that his front wing survived; usually, in these types of collisions, the front end takes the brunt while the rear fares better since it's more compact.
Stupid move by Webber—Lewis cleared him by the length of the car, and he should have just let him through.

It’s kind of like what happened at Monza—except here, Weber was Hamilton and Hamilton was Massa.

🤣🤣🤣🤣
Aside from the fact that he clearly follows this forum or gets briefed by someone (he brings up those statistics far more often than I would ever bother to look them up), it seems he has a little circle over at the StudioF1 forums feeding him all sorts of nonsense. 🙂

roughly 🙂

wasn't that a quick Nick? Kazuki kissed the wall a few laps ago 🙂

I wouldn't go that far.
At Monza, Lewis Hamilton was actually trying to make the move. Here, Mark Webber was busy blocking him—playing the rear guard, you know?

If Lewis Hamilton made any mistake, it was probably not leaving an extra half-meter of breathing room. He could have likely squeezed through if he'd given it a bit more space on the right.
In that moment, Mark Webber was sitting right in his blind spot. Lewis Hamilton simply didn't see him and thought the overtake was already done. Then, boom—he gets torpedoed.

Of course, you can expect the little piglet to argue that he didn't brake hard enough.
Honestly, the look on Mark Webber's face in that room where the three of them were sitting before the podium tells the whole story. You can practically feel the frustration radiating off him. Sebastian Vettel is ahead of him (again), having caused a mess—which, let's be honest, probably doesn't bother him much.
Meanwhile, Vettel looks like a happy kid, and Fernando Alonso is just doing his own thing again...
