Downvote this - I'd rather have Maze-Spin causing safety cars to make races more interesting and remove Goatifi AND Stroll - but this is F1.

I for one will not miss the painted parking lot.
Have to say that SC really fricked Haas. That, and they had tire deg problems as KMag went from being all over Bottass to fading bad several laps before the Latifi incident.
Also, it appears only Kmag will have the upgrade package next week.

At Haas there is another problem: The large aerodynamics package is to make its debut in Budapest. The first and possibly the only one this season. Underbody and side boxes are new. It has already been postponed by a week because the wind tunnel in the development phase once spit out irritating values ??that first had to be verified using CFD simulation.
So Haas will only travel to Budapest with an upgrade kit for the 13th World Championship round. Only one subfloor is finished in time. The package is awarded to the driver who has more points. This is Magussen.
However, it is not at all certain whether the favored driver has an advantage. Large upgrades often only work on the second try. And there is a risk of starting from the pit lane. "If you cause an accident in qualifying and don't have any spare parts, you have to go back to the old specification. That means starting from the pit lane," explains Steiner.

His pre-podium interview rubbed me the wrong way today. I get bitching on the radio. Whatever. I know they're all competitors and this and that, but he was adamant about his lack of fault. I feel he could have handled it better by saying something along the lines of "that was an unfortunate bit of the race. We'll have to go back to review what happened."

“ Sergio seems to have fallen asleep at the restart after the Virtual Safety Car - thundered the Austrian manager, speaking to various German media - maybe he drank tequila last night . 
Marko doesn't think much of Serg's performance.

Lewis Hamilton's P2 at the #FrenchGP is the best finish of any driver after or on their 300th race

Nope, but one is welcomed and another is not.

They were on a two stop the entire time, they got fricked by the Yellow, so they needed to change the tires a 2nd time so they did it again
They stopped 3 times (well Mick did, the other car DNF). Had they stayed out they move way up. Stop later and keep most gains as others stop.
By stopping at caution (their 2nd stop) they gave up advantage of stopping so early. Hope that makes sense

Stroll has shown talent at several times, think he had a decent junior career too.
Also Stroll has never been miles off the pace of his teammate.

The way F1 does safety cars means even if they had stayed out they wouldn't have gained much. Some, but not a lot. They don't bunch of the field before allowing pitting, but rather it's much like a VSC where they all drive at a delta until allowed to close up.
Turns out with the tire deg they had pitting on the SC gained them nothing as they couldn't go 35 laps on the hards.
Basically, as usual, a SC boned their strat. At a track that generally doesn't have SC's. Their lap times when running alone were very good. Faster than all but the top 4 so without the SC they would have undercut a huge number of cars.

Oh Ferrari, let me count the ways you hurt me.
The Sainz pass on Checo when they were screaming for him to box was brilliant. An epic pass.
Good for LeClerc for owning the mistake. He may be the most likable guy on the grid. I’m a fan.

Chuck is hard to not like.
Seems a bit soft though.

I'm not mad he spoke his mind. I'm disappointed he wasn't truthful about the situation. What you remember seeing at 200 mph isn't always the way it is. Like I said, it just rubbed the wrong way that he was so sure Checo was wrong and put him on blast. It's the same reaction as last year when he shunted Bottas at Imola, only to have Toto pull him back in line on Monday morning.

Guess being in the Merc gives you an entitlement complex.
It’s the Brit in him, duh.

Yeah, I've switched from VER to him. Max is just hard to like due to his laser focused personality and his dad doesn't help either. I was all for him finally ending the Merc reign though.

Toto got on him today in real time too. Had to tell him to focus in while the race was still going on. Fatal flaw in sport and you see it often.

I don't know if being Brit gives an entitlement complex, Lando seems pretty easy to like and pull for. With that said it's early in his career and maybe if Lando was in a RBR, Mercedes or Ferrari he would act differently.

I am also new to F1 getting addicted by DTS as many have. I have yet to hear or experience the cause for Max dislike.
The guy is a robot, if you don't like his dad, that's a different story BUT I don't see the dislike of Max.
I don't dislike Lewis but he seems the most outspoken politically, he and I probably disagree on 90% of topics so this tends to make me root for other drivers over him. Can honestly say don't understand HATE towards any driver, other than Stroll! LOL

Max wasnt happy at all with the way DTS portrayed him and thats why he wasnt too involved in season 4. I didnt see a reason to hate on Max while watching the show either, but for those who dont like him because of DTS, according to Max a lot of the off track issues were fabricated by the show for entertainment and an attempt to create on track rivalries that didn't really exist. Now everyone knows DTS is widely known to create stories for drama (it is reality tv), but Max thought they were unreasonably unfair to him.
Anyways, apparently Max & DTS kissed and made up and he'll be back to participating in season 5.
Sucks he wasnt too involved in season 4 because more of his POV during the drivers championship battle would have been amazing.
