Nobody gets a ridiculous penalty quite like Carlos. It seems like he's always penalized for something that makes no sense at all. "We see why it's confusing but we're going to penalizing you anyway."

"We realize that it was absolutely not your fault that a man hole cover blows up and destroys the bottom of your car. That's on us. Faulty design, our bad. But were going to massively penalize you anyway and cost you a numerous places in the constructors standings."

Yeh that’s a weird one. Surely someone on the Williams pit wall knew that he had not been lapped. I guess the lead car could pass you while you are in the pit lane, but honestly I would expect the driver to know if he had been lapped.

max Verstappen bombshell report?


He was pretty pissed after the race and said he couldn’t wait to get home and forget about F1 for a while, but doubt any bombshells with him until after summer break.

Looks like the big story was about Scott Dixon leaving chip ganassi racing and moving to the arrow McLaren Indy car team. I thought that news came out last week but looks like it is official now.

That isn't the F1 news. That is what Buxton was talking about.

I thought the Buxton tweet was what started it all. Everyone was talking about how he tweeted the same thing right before Lewis to Ferrari broke.
It’s 9 PM in the UK right now, prolly won’t be any breaking news from them today.

There were a lot of F1 only tweets, including one that said Buxton's tweet was not in reference to the same thing.

I'm unhappy as a Williams fan, I can't imagine being a driver. Every time they take a step forward they end up shooting themselves in the foot. Like how can you not be ready for testing at the beginning of the year?

I was hoping after a strong finish last year they'd make a small jump or at least maintain, but things do not look good.

He admits he missed it in his after race interview and then suddenly, he didn’t.


The explanation was in the stewards report. The panels by the course were green the whole time, I think this is what saved him. Light on his wheel was yellow for very short time and then cleared. Not hard to see where he would get a pass.

Love your work, but I suggest when clicking on “my prediction” on your site. I’d like to see my prediction and not everyone else’s way before mine.

I understand. You want to be able to see your own list quickly during the lockdown when everyone's list is shown. I have adjusted the output to show the logged-in player's list first, and then the complete list of prediction lists, ordered from most recently saved to the oldest save. (The logged-in player's list will appear for a 2nd time according to its save date.) It will look like this:

Love your work, but I would like my prediction to auto-correct to the actual order of finish once the race concludes.

Is @everythingforumla Italian? Sounds like something an Italian F1 writer would say.

Webber may no longer be the best person for this young lad

Webber has had some sort of falling out with McLaren. He is not as involved on race weekends as he was in the past. I don’t think it affected his relationship with Piastri.

They're really trying to gaslight us into thinking the Madring will be good for racing, aren't they? I'm sure the track is awesome for hot laps. I'm still not convinced it will be good for racing.

Think that is typical of Webber with anyone. Made the right move with Piastri and Alpine but it has been one of this few wins.

That is a disgusting photo. Max belongs at Red Bull. Would Zack Brown really tell Piastri to hit the bricks?
