Re: [2020] Formula 1
Hulk did great!
Vettel...spinning as usual and destroying his tires...
Bottas unlucky with his power unit but LH overtook him before that...
Great result for Ric and Renault.
Albon...wth is he doing? He destroyed 2 sets of tires with lockups and nearly crashed into the 2nd AlphaTauri. What a mess of a driver he has been...

Re: [2020] Formula 1
Just watched Fernando on Amazon Prime.
It would seems he is a changed person now since his double F1 championship days, he no longer is that guy who thinks he is sitting on a perch high up top being untouchable. He got knock back down to earth and re-evaluate his attitude and now he is quite a friendly person. A pleasant surprise on his improvement as a human being.
His fighting spirit is still there, pretty cool to see the behind the scene stuff on his Le Mans, Indy and Dakar journey.

Re: [2020] Formula 1
I love F1 and I am watching it since the early 90‘s... never liked Alonso exactly for that reasons you mentioned... sometimes people need a change to be able to reflect on things in order to make them better. I will wach it, sounds promising, but nevertheless I think its good that he is coming back to F1.

Yes, before, he was hostile towards fans, he felt like he was forced to interact with them, now he genuinely wanting to interact with his fans. I am liking him now.

I bet Vettel will spin his Ferrari in turn 4
Weather forecast for Sunday: light rain
Vettel: Deutlicher Rückstand auf Leclerc
Sebastian Vettel leistete sich einen Dreher im ersten Training, absolvierte aber ansonsten problemlose 37 Runden und landete mit 1,790 Sekunden Rückstand auf die Bestzeit auf dem elften Platz. Auf Leclerc verlor er 0,891 Sekunden. Von der Steigerung, die er sich für Portimao vorgenommen hat, ist er vorerst noch weit entfernt

Re: [2020] Formula 1
I really dont understand why Vettel is struggleing so much with the current car... I mean the gap to leclerc is really huge... Ferrari has a garbage car this year its a fact... but again, it shows how difficult is to say who is the best driver... in F1 small things make a difference and I think Vettel is very sensible what consurns the ca.. he had aso in a few seasons with red bull troule f.e. whne they ditched the blown diffuser... he must feel very convenient to perform, but when he is comfortable is almost unstopable!

Re: [2020] Formula 1
VB77 missed a huge opportunity to not only be on pole but as well to win this race!
He was .3s slower in Q3 than his own PB in Q2 whilst LH44 improved by .17s in his final run - this is why Valteri is just a fast F1 driver but not a serious contender for F1 world championship.
This season the Merc seem to be very easy to drive and therefore he‘s more able than ever to keep up with Lewis in qualifying & trainings but as he‘s not on the same level with him in regards of race tactics, tyre management and overtaking he‘ll always be a very fast #2 driver.
I guess we‘ll have a great race tomorrow!
But what‘s going on with SV, why is he losing so often against CL 🤷🏼♂️, Racing Point should cancel his contract and keep Sergio, he‘s really fast
Re: [2020] Formula 1
Gnil:very interesting track. I hope it will allow some passing , but that's probably just wishful thinking
Portimao is an immensely fun track to lap in. I drove 918, Cup car and GT3RS on it before.
It's amazing where F1 cars brakes as compared to other cars and the speed they can go around corners.
Also interesting to see the F1 cars are taking slightly different lines on track than in a sports car.

Re: [2020] Formula 1
It's so nice to see them racing on something other than a flat circuit. I think they should come back to race here again next year.
Don't get why these guys keep breaking track limit, perhaps a sand trap should be in order there just to keep these guys running tighter.
But on the other hand, was watching the Lamborghini Trofeo races at Spa last couple days and boy, those guys have absolutely NO respect for track limits.
Great drive by Perez, after getting punted off track by Max, he went from dead last to finish 7th. All the while Lance look lost on the circuit. 🤦🏻♂️ Perez really should have stayed in Racing Point and Stroll senior really should stop the Lance experiment.
And Lewis, well his race craft is really second to none. Preserving his own tires while pressuring Bottas to used up his.

Re: [2020] Formula 1
I guess this says it all about VB - nice guy, not even a girlie man as he has a beard but just no champ!
LH44 was again great to watch and besides the beginning he took over control already a few laps prior to his race deciding overtake (lap 20) pushing Valteri to his and his tyres limits

Re: [2020] Formula 1
@Whoopsy
That‘s I‘m always saying, he‘s quick on a fast lap and on very special (rather rare) occasions when BUT he can‘t deliver in races over a period of time/ a season!
That‘s why he‘s very fast, no doubt but becoming a WC isn‘t only about one freaking fast lap but also to deliver when it matters most... in many RACES 🤓
LH is almost flawless in races and he‘s always capable to push the limits even further (and his opponents as well)
Think of the last races when he forced Valteri in various mistakes and even went on pole even though Valteri has been faster in all other training sessions...

There was an article a few days ago, in which Paddy Lowe is quoted saying that Rosberg hasmade Hamilton a lot harder to beat. So Bottas may well be facing a more complete opponenent than Rosberg has.
