I'd rather see Nico taking these races instead of Lewis.

I'm with ya. Lewis can eat a bag of dicks.

Wrong. Always.

F1 drama lol . . . Max/Lewis/Nico/Roman etc
Because of the fucked-up time differentials (fuck you world/what's wrong with this world ! ) I've only been able to drag myself out of bed once to watch a race this year.
The season is unfolding nicely.

Verstappen [HTML_REMOVED] Kvyat just switched teams. I guess Red Bull didn't like Kvyat's bumper car impression in Russia.

Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.

The stewards saw it as a racing incident. I guess I agree mostly with that. Rosberg got a little cheeky by moving over, but Lewis was pretty aggressive. I like what Niki Lauda said about it. Of course he's a former driver, so he thought Rosberg was not at fault at all because he was in front.

Red Bull ruined what was the most spectacular race weekend by a driver in recent memory. Ricciardo was dominant in qualifying [HTML_REMOVED] was set up to win handily. He's got a right to be pissed.

The Canadian GP.
The only F1 race I've attended ('93/94?)
100x better than the indycar races i've been to in T (go deaf without earplugs)
At the time, you could tell what car was coming up the track as it would literally vibrate and resonate through your body differently. To me, the best buzz through the body was the Ferrari. During the weekend it was always a wtf moment.
Shot rolls of film over the weekend and ended up with one image I liked.

Should be a good race.

Ferrari with flexing rear wing ? . . .

You know a race has gotten a bit boring when the commentators are complaining that drivers are swearing over the radio to their team.

I don't agree with Ferrari keeping Kimi on another season. They should go with someone younger/ hungrier
I have a feeling that Massa will not be with Williams next year. Then again, I've heard Bottas may not be safe either.
Hope Rosberg gets his act together, so Hamilton doesn't win another title.

As much as I used to like Kimi I tend to agree. Perez should go to Ferrari in his place.

There has been talk of Button going to Williams. if Kimi left Ferrari and stayed in F1 he would be a good option for them also…

I've given up on Rosberg stopping Hamilton. He's continually proven he chokes under real pressure.

Wrong. Always.

What a wicked lap by both drivers in the wet. Both right on the edge of getting enough power down coming out of the corners [HTML_REMOVED] spinning out. Miss those days of balls out racing. Alot of restrictions now such as gas, tyres, gearbox changes, engine changes [HTML_REMOVED] radio convo. Alonso had a famous radio chatter quote last year "This is not racing…" I agree with him. I still say put that Spaniard in a top car [HTML_REMOVED] it would not be close. I think most team managers know that [HTML_REMOVED] many have said so.

But this one has to be the most insane move ever by Alonso. I think Schumi probably shit his pants when he saw Fernando pulling alongside of him [HTML_REMOVED] passing him on that corner. Most people thought it wasn't possible to pass there. That's why these drivers are the best in the world easily.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLZLxT1ZEPA

Well, clearly he read my comment and it lit a flame under him. Good for him I say. I sure don't want to see the 6th Spice Girl win the title again. The bag licker.

Wrong. Always.
