Absolutely enjoy the Thread!
Seems there are Expert F1'ers to Novice posters but all seem to really enjoy the sport and the conversations around it.
I consider myself still a novice automotively as this my first full season that I am fully emersed. BUT....
I do understand finance and business which is one aspect I really LOVE about F1 beyond the track.

This one goes into pretty in depth detail about what happened on that first lap crash.

This was epic. I can only imagine the energy and excitement in the stands those final 10 laps. It was breathtaking even watching at home.
I don’t care for Lewis, but the fans going wild was pretty cool.
Not to be a total redneck here, but Dale Jr for the lead at Daytona or Talladega are about the only times you hear a fan reaction like that in American Motorsports.

Can't forget the Nürburgring here.
If you're referring to the Nordschleife, there's no other track in the world like it. Sadly it's no longer suitable for F1 racing. Fans don't want to wait that long for the cars to come around for another lap and it's too big to have complete camera coverage. It's also pretty narrow. Certainly it's as iconic as any other track on earth.
Now the GP track is another matter. I can't say I'm a big fan of that venue. Turns 2-4 are interesting and hard to get just right but the rest of it is kind of boring. I don't know who designed it but if you told me it was Herman Tilke, I'd believe you.

slow down to .5x speed and you can see George turn his head and look into his mirror and try to cut Gasly off. I'm not sure what the regulations are in the straights but George definitely initiated chicken and lost. Pierre could have lifted too, but you always run the risk of being the guy who always backs off. Ultimately you know the merc has more pace than your car, so Pierre should have lifted along with Russell not squeezing him.

Also consider that George got a poor start which let Latifi by, so I think his look/move left shows that he was trying to cover off any other potential threats coming up his left but Pierre was already there when he closed the gap.

Listening to the Missed Apex podcast and someone brought up the new clarification given at the beginning of the season, on passing, allows what we saw at Silverstone in the last few laps.
Haven't seen the directives themselves or anyone else break this down. What is described seems really...out there. If true.
23:45 about a 3-5 minute explanation

To me it looks like Pierre did back off the throttle to hopefully avoid contact. But couldn't slam on the breaks for obvious reasons.

How true of a comparison!
Don't think there has ever been CO - World champion drivers.
Ferrari is picking the wrong horse in my opinion and gonna cost them both.
I like Carlos BUT from where I am sitting Leclerc is the next MULTI -Year WC
(other than obviously Max)

I agree about LeClerc although I will also admit to being a fan. His maturation as a driver over the last couple of years has been fun to watch. The battle with Hamilton on Sunday is a great example. If that had happened two years ago neither would have finished the race.

Jolyn Palmer's recap on F1TV showed a replay of Albon and Mag in the same situation as Mick and Max coming to the flag a couple years ago.
Mick shouldn't have lifted.
Albon didn't and Mag put himself in the kitty litter when he cut in just like Max did.
Would have made for a spectacular finish.

Mick would have gained a ton of fans and enemies in a blink of an eye.

I welcome it… never understood why you shouldn’t be allowed to use the whole track or block, swerve, etc…
It’s racing… I wanna see people take chances, run risks, play chicken.

When I raced in SCCA if someone wanted by I gave them the outside but I was under no obligation to alter my racing line unless they were along side me completely. When I passed someone on the outside I watched their front wheel and if they decided not to leave me room then I waited until the next corner. I've always felt the responsibility was in the overtaking car to avoid contact and that's how it raced. I have no idea what the F1 rules are now given all the mixed messages but if I'm overtaking, I'm not going to leave my arse out in the grass and bitch that I wasn't given room. I want the place I have to take it

Huh? Do you mean teammates that both were both WDC? Because that’s happened a bunch of times.
LEC is pretty clearly Ferrari’s #1. His contract alone would tell you that. They just unsurprisingly fricked up strategy last race because…Ferrari…
