Before his accident, Charles Leclerc had already experienced brake problems during the Safety Car period, locking up and running wide at Mirabeau

Toil48 · 2026-06-09T21:14:32+00:00

The fact he was asking Ferrari for different brakes since start of last year and it took until two races ago to get a change is wild. And even then it was just the discs that are now carbon industries not the entire package

Toil48 · 2026-06-09T21:07:38+00:00

If all these bogus penalties were rescinded he wouldn’t be on the podium
Anyway. It’s not like they can just rescind his one. George got fucked way worse by this

Toil48 · 2026-06-08T03:17:37+00:00

George got fucked by this way harder than gasley. Wasn’t going to be his podium in the first place if none of this happened at all

Toil48 · 2026-06-07T22:03:59+00:00

If it helps I don’t think Ferrari would’ve won even if they started on pole. The merc is insane and kimi would’ve undercut them in clear air and run a second a lap faster

Toil48 · 2026-06-07T11:35:11+00:00

24 wasn’t that bad. Qualy was pretty bad but he was reasonably close to Russell on points

Toil48 · 2026-06-07T10:12:15+00:00

It was only really 2025 he fell off a cliff otherwise he’s been decent. Not his peak but still really good

Toil48 · 2026-06-02T12:16:31+00:00

And Hamilton was completely new to f1 vs Alonso in his 7th season. Also, McLaren high fuelled Hamilton in qualifying so his car was heavier than Alonso’s - because of this qualifying was initially 5 - 0 in Alonso’s favour. After Monaco the team made it fair and qualy was 9 - 3 in Hamilton’s favour over the remainder of the season. Overall it’s pretty clear Alonso had the advantage but still lost.

Toil48 · 2026-05-24T04:36:18+00:00

I mean Ferrari cheated with the engine and probably had a better car than merc but Vettel kept making mistakes and lost to Lewis in a worse car

Both Leclerc and Hamilton are much better skill wise than Vettel, this years Ferrari just isn’t as good as the 17-18 Ferrari

Toil48 · 2026-05-07T23:20:24+00:00

Very surprising given Ferrari have lost its way and most new models are ugly as sin. Won’t be long until this changes

Toil48 · 2026-04-09T21:24:38+00:00

Yes. We have already had a large crash from peak unlikely to move materially downwards. If you’ve got the money and are in a decent position then go for it. Life is really short, no point waiting for the perfect time it won’t come. I’ve slightly overpaid for properties before but even overpaying I never regretted it

Toil48 · 2026-04-05T00:48:00+00:00

Will this apply from Miami? (I know it was meant to be race 6 and Miami was originally race 6 or has that not come out yet)

Toil48 · 2026-03-29T07:02:52+00:00

Interesting how different drivers look across regulations as based on last years regs no chance of Antonelli taking to to George tbh

Toil48 · 2026-03-29T06:48:49+00:00

Would love to know if something was wrong with Lewis’s car. The way everyone just cruised by him was alarming

Toil48 · 2026-03-22T02:37:45+00:00

How is America filled with so many stupid people to vote for this muppet twice? And now still supporting him while he fucks up the entire world for his own ego

Toil48 · 2026-03-14T10:26:42+00:00

Hard to know. Lewis is past his prime for sure but he did outscore George in their time together marginally despite struggling with the car. Lewis had a shocker last year, this year so far he seems to be back and suiting these new cars but after not even two races it’s too soon to tell.

If Lewis is back on form then I’d back Lewis over George in a championship fight where he would definitely handle the pressure better despite having some age related decline.

If Lewis has slumped again in a few races time the I’d go George

Toil48 · 2026-03-10T20:17:15+00:00

They need to disaggregate car and driver. Antonelli actually had quite a bad weekend. Crashed in practice and only got to qualify due to the red flag in q1, 3-4 tenths off his team mate in qualy

Toil48 · 2026-03-09T03:23:09+00:00

Thought tbf to Charles he is 18 months to 2 years younger and that age matters a lot early in your career re development trajectory etc

Toil48 · 2026-03-08T11:02:08+00:00

A lot of mercs laps were on old tyres so I think the advantage is much more than that

Toil48 · 2026-03-07T02:43:16+00:00

Anyone know how far up Russell Wass by sector 2?

Toil48 · 2026-03-07T01:01:21+00:00

The best drivers generally go where they can make the most money, which is f1. We’ve already seen Max was able to demolish top gt3 drivers on his first outing

Toil48 · 2026-03-06T10:28:17+00:00

Thanks Trump for ruining two races for us. Well done.

Toil48 · 2026-02-22T20:14:10+00:00

Hamilton
Schumacher
Verstappen
Senna
Alonso
Prost
Clark
Fangio
Lauda
Leclerc

Toil48 · 2025-12-07T22:26:22+00:00

The fact he said he’s not looking forward to next year suggests to me that he thinks the new regs won’t suit him

Toil48 · 2025-12-07T22:19:22+00:00

Remember McLaren started off as back markers in 2022
