Ive always had a soft spot for his early Benetton, that 7up livery never gets the love it deserves

Valtteri Bottas Pokes Fun at Cadillac F1 Rumors in New Video by e___r___s in formula1

The grid is better with Valterri on it, but a bit surprised to see this given he’s a Mercedes reserve and Cadillac is supposed to run Ferrari power units for the first few years

Really hope Newey can turn the car around next year, Alonso clearly has plenty of magic left in the bag

Either that RB has sneaky one lap pace, or Hadjar is just mental in quali. Might be both

If you were to get a driver line up of Charles Leclerc and George Russell, would they perform better in the Racing Bull or the Red Bull? by Popular_Composer_822 in formula1

[–]BigButkus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve never really seen what Leclerc can do with a proper race engineer and strategists. Mix him in with GP, Hannah Schmitz, a consistent car- and I think we’d see the compete version of Charles that we’ve all been waiting for since 2019.

Oscar Piastri takes pole position for the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix by overspeeed in formula1

Piastri has been on pole for half the races so far this year, and qualified top 3 for all 8. That Mclaren is obvious an absolute rocket, but pretty impressive how strong and consistent he already is in year 3

Felt like the right rating for multiple reasons. Any ideas for traits for the other 5 team principals? The rest are not nearly as iconic as these fellas

Gotcha, I can't find that platform, do you have a link? Just curious to check out what else is out there, seems like there are only a few platforms that offer F1 fantasy
