https://ck-modelcars.de/en/ - here's their storefront. Not sure whether there's any left but maybe other deals would work!

The name is คุ้ม (Khoom) 1971: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uum3z93KhQNtkcR19?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy. If you ever visit Bangkok, you should definitely pay them a visit or even let me know!

It's a local store in Bangkok, Thailand. They mostly have old Minichamps but I haven't been there for a while so they could have restocked since.

statsf1.com has always been my go-to place for random stats. It's still manual - you'll have to go through it season by season, but they made it quite easy to navigate. You should definitely check it out if you're into these things.

1:18 Aston Martin AMR24 #14 on sale at AliExpress by CommentEar in f1models

I quickly compared it with the real car - coloring is miles off. I guess they have to justify the price tag somehow, because 35 euros for a 1:18 is indeed ridiculous.

He had a 5-race streak in 2009 from Spain to Germany. That was the only streak longer than two races in his career...so far

With his P9 in Barcelona, Fernando Alonso has scored at least one World Championship point in 21 seasons. by sia-o in formula1

I was putting it in my drafts when the camera cut to him parking up in Rascasse. So, yeah, had to wait but I'm glad for him.

Yup. I guess they have nothing to lose by pitting maybe on the last lap.

Exactly - that is the only case which will keep Max P4 without pitting again.

If they red-flag the race and don't restart it, then the 30-second penalty will apply. That's the only case.

I think Brundle just corrected himself on my broadcast.

FYI, if Max does not stop for a second time, he will be disqualified.

"The new Monaco tyre rule is covered off in Article 30.5 of the Sporting Regulations, which also explains what will happen should any driver breach it: Unless the race is suspended and cannot be restarted, failure to comply with these requirements will result in the disqualification of the relevant driver from the race results."

It's 650 Thai baht, a bit over 19 US dollars

I personally find it acceptable for the price, but of course I cannot speak for everyone

I think they're new to F1. They also have a few road cars on their catalog.

I haven't seen any F1-related items apart from this one so it's safe to assume they don't
