Just my opinion for 2022 thread, OP should start with the new rules and aero changes...then followed by car reveals/drivers for each team

That's what I was planning to do for the 2022 thread, if I was going to be the one doing it. That said I don't mind if somebody else wants to do it.

Agree, but needs to hold on posting it and let this thread be all the talk about last year and other BS… can’t really discuss 2022 until testing and seeing how teams come out

Man, I am all onboard the Lando train. Even sport the 4 every now and then.

But, damn, dude has come off like a pretentious d-bag at points this year.

If he can drive, I don't care about all that, but right now his attitude is outweighing his skill.

The loveable goofball shine he had is wearing off a bit for sure

As the official AlphaTauri TDMSB fanboy, we would be willing to loan Yuki's handler to McLaren in exchange for a Q3 tow down Kemmel Straight at Spa for Gasly

Speaking of, y'all seen the Spa upgrades? New gravel traps and changes to Eau Rouge/Raidillon that are yet to be seen.

It’d be interesting to do a “whose the most genuine” ranking of F1 drivers. I think it’s actually harder to do than you think. Like you’d have to put Hamilton and Verstappen last but even they give a lot of honest interviews.

Gasley would have to be up there.
Ferrari guys would.
Vettel would be up there.
Riccardio would be.

Hamilton, Verstappen, George Russel, Mazespin, and Lando Norris would be near the bottom

Think Ricciardo is pretty damn genuine. He is who he is and doesn’t hide it. Seems like a good guy that doesn’t take himself too seriously. Gasley seems to be pretty similar along with Checo

I have quit buying team kit since I refuse to wear Ferrari gear outside of a race city during a race weekend or to an F1 GTG. The good stuff is expensive as hell and in the past, I only wore it a couple of times then bought new stuff.

I do have a collection of horrible driver gear I sometimes break out of storage for a GP weekend. I buy it after they leave their team for cheap. You can always attract attention on a race weekend wearing a Chanoch Nissany shirt or Alex Yoong hat. Planning to buy something from Nikita's line when he gets scrapped but will hide it for a few years until wearing it is clearly perceived as ironic.

Kimi is out now...

Yeah, who is PR and who is themselves. Good question.

GR seems like he likes talking to the media. Something tells me that will change when the criticism comes the next few years.

Danny Ric doesn't seem to PR a whole lot of his answers without making sure you know he is PR'ing them.

Thw pushback the British drivers get is brutal. They have to cover their arse so much so not to offend anyone.

My wife is getting me a Haas shirt for my birthday. I pull for Mclaren on race days, but feel like I need to rep the American owned team a little. Plus it’s kinda fun/funny to me to rep the worst team
