Re: The Official Formula 1 2016 Season Thread

so apparently Button is not retiring but taking a sabbatical since he's signed on through 2018. Some ting tells me McLaren are using Button as back up in case Alonso leaves or if Vondorn sucks.

I like Vettel. He is always good for a lols. Gets worked up on track but never passes an opportunity to troll a press conference

Been a busy week, just now catching up on the thread/F1.

His blocking is not illegal but it is dangerous and pretty stupid. If Kimi hit him with that speed differential it would have been a double DNF.

Weird. Massa and Button have been constants in F1 since I started watching, Kimi and ALO the only old timers (for me) left.

Felipe should have retired years ago.

Button as a development driver is stupid as he has never given feedback to develop a championship level car.

I think a lot of people are really starting to like him now that he isn't winning all the time.

Re: The Official Formula 1 2016 Season Thread

I'm not mad about HAM losing the race in T1.

But why didn't Ferrari split their strategies? Keep Seb on the theoretically faster one stop and cover HAM's two stop (the dummy) with Kimi.

I should really apply for that job. May need to brush up on my Italiano doe.

So the whole race was decided in turn one and the rest was a boring snooze fest. Very disappointed

this is formula 1. I watch the first lap and then tune in a few laps from the end. Rarely miss much between then.
