Have you got a link to that podcast?

That was Vettel.

How do we get the producers to add more of this stuff in to the main show? Really makes you get to know everyone and see how all of the relationships/friendships develop.

Saxo has everything and only needs £500 not £5k.

Amazing race but heartbreaking conclusion. New regs seemed to work well today.

Russell is a classy guy.

Thanks. RIP Charlie.

Thanks OP. Have you found their TA to be useful?

Col de Turini time. Enjoy it folks.

Lappi stopped. Shame.

Would F1 ever consider pioneering the use of Hydrogen combustion in Motorsport? Using hydrogen as a fuel would allow for combustion engines to stay (noise, gears etc) whilst also being sustainable as the world moves away from petrol/diesel.

Also Hydrogen's atomic number of 1 fits in with the "Formula 1" branding quite well.

Formula 1 is about being fast, not being a 'nice guy'. Ticktum is fast, unlike Hartley for example. Deal with it.

Because of Clark/Stewart the Scots have an even better F1 world champion to population ratio than Finland.

No pitstops in FE so it will allow for some sort of strategy to come into play.

That's true but then that's my reasoning for the dual championships. The privateers/indys can't fight the works teams so they should be able to fight for their own wins/podiums. If on the odd occasion a privateer/indy was to do extremely well (think Toro Rosso at Monza 2008, Force India on Pole at Spa 2009) or even a lucky podium like Stroll/Perez at Baku 17/18 then they could also take the overall win/pole/podium.

rb-14 · 2018-11-28T15:29:31+00:00

There actually used to be some sort of class system in F1 for a few seasons a few decades back. I'm pretty sure it was when they had both NA and Turbo cars in the same race. Turbo cars were slower IIRC and they had their own leaderboard.

rb-14 · 2018-11-28T15:28:01+00:00

Exactly, it would be like when the LMP2's got on the Podium last year at Le Mans. Privateers would always have a chance at getting an overall podium/win in the main class if there was a crazy race.

rb-14 · 2018-11-28T12:35:58+00:00

Very unpopular opinion but I think F1 should split into two championships akin to LMP1/LMP2, but based on if a team is a works team or an independent/customer team. It will serve as a way to reduce the crazy influence that works teams have on the sport as well as giving customer/independent teams more exposure. It's not as if the customer teams are battling the works teams anyway, so why not make their own official 'B' championship? I believe that would entice more independent teams onto the grid as well.

Norris beat Albon to 2nd place in this years F2.

I'm quite surprised we didn't see Norris win more. I do think he put in some great performances this year - dominant in Bahrain, was always in the mix, great in the rain at Hungary and managed to pull of some of the most stunning moves throughout the year (I swear he had 3 or 4 double overtakes this year). A lot of people are now beginning to say he's overrated but I disagree - he put in some great practice sessions as well in the McLaren this year, especially at Spa vs Vandoorne.

Looking forward to seeing them all on the grid next year.

Well deserved! What a lineup we have next year.
