Well I guess we'll get an idea of that next year. If McLaren isn't within a few tenths of or faster than RB next season it's gonna be interesting to see what the excuse is. I have no problem putting 70% of the blame on Honda, but McLaren has made it out that Honda is 100% at fault. As if McLaren higher ups had no input on anything, that's what bugs me.

If Fred stays with McLaren next season his curse will keep them in the back half of the grid. lol

So Williams has said they aren't required to have a driver over 25. Wehrlein could still have a chance there for 2018

I can't even YouTube right now. I think it is true that everyone else around me is Netflix and chilling.

What is this your list of first 3 DNFs? I'd bet you all of Falcon's kids that WEH won't be in Q3.

It looked to me like the pavement was slightly wet. As he was hitting the apex it looked like there was some spray on the in car. Then he got onto the kerb, which would be slipperier and well we saw what happened.

I say VET pips HAM for pole with RIC 3rd.

BOT getting a 5 place gearbox penalty btw

isn't it? Like the only person - IN THE WORLD!! wtf?

For those that don't know - I follow Kobayashi on Facebook and he posts stuff every few days or so and he might get 5 comments if he's lucky, but usually it's me and no one else...
