James Harris34 said:Even whenever you bring up Mark Webber, I always find myself wondering about a couple of things. First, did Red Bull actually call him into the pits during the 2010 Dubai race just to bait Fernando Alonso into a trap? And second, after that mistake in the rain where he hit the wall at the Korean Grand Prix in 2010, did he intentionally leave his car spinning out there just to take out a title contender? (Though, unfortunately for him, he ended up taking out Nico Rosberg instead).

In Dubai? No way. I honestly don't get why people come up with this stuff...
For crying out loud, Webber clipped the wall on a corner right before his pit stop, wrecked the rim, and the tire probably started losing pressure, so obviously he had to pit...
You can't exactly drive a Formula 1 car on three wheels, or at least not quickly enough to win 😁

If there's any conspiracy theory worth considering, it's that the Ferrari strategists just hated Fernando Alonso and screwed him over on purpose, rather than this madness about sacrificing Webber...
But long before we decide that, let's face it: those Ferrari strategists were a bunch of total amateurs. They haven't just shown us that once in the last decade or so, they've made a habit of it 😍

As for Korea, yeah, it did look like he was trying to collect someone...
The real question is whether he just misjudged it and hit Nico Rosberg thinking it was someone else or some random kid 🤷

What about that collision between Sutil - Trulli?
When was it that they had to show him those photos during the press conference?

It’s always such a bummer when a local driver ends up causing all the chaos... just look at the 2018 Canadian Grand Prix where Stroll slammed into Hartley, or back in the 1994 Belgian Grand Prix when Philippe Adams had to pull out

Man, what an eccentric character Jean-Pierre van Ross was...

Larrousse really could have had a much stronger run during the 1995 season if they hadn't been let down by the head of DAMS...
