I was at Road America in 1996 for the CART/ChampCar Havoline 200, Honda/Mercedes/Infinity were running turbo motors on open wheel chassis's...

DejaVu?

I'm glad Honda has something to do with F1 again simply because that means trickle down DRS, turbo motor and KERS battery tech for me in my 2020 Civic hatchback.

Love Honda but the throttle response in that sewing machine sounded a slow. Maybe they were being gentle. Hope the sound becomes more raw under track load.

I thought the Nascar style doughnuts and the bowing to the car that's given him the edge was a classy thing to do for the fans AND his team of F1 Guru's.
He wasn't the only driver not to put their car in the winners line up box.
Personally, i think he's doing a pretty good job of acknowledging his wins as a TEAM effort. A lot of others have talked about how Vett. views the team as family, and I think it shows in their chemistry. They could have won anyway they wanted, but they played a good strategy to keep him out front when the pits were done.
I was just hoping for Webber to give a bit of a run at the end. That bike ride's gotta SUCK.

So after catching all the drama from this weekend surrounding Kimi, I'm wondering,,,,, Who the hell would wait so long into the season to complain about not being paid the "$15 M" he's owed?
I agree with the announcers, I think he should leave it up to his lawyers and continue to race. You never know, a bad pit exit could cause more issues than Lotus is ready to deal with. Perhaps the FIA should step in and put Lotus under penalty for not paying their driver?

Congrats to VET for another driving Clinique in Abudahbi, WOW, 30+seconds ahead of 2nd place Webber. Both Webber and RB should be happy with the results, they finished 1/2 as a team which is what you'd think they'd want every race.
Personally, I'd love to see this race and the circuit of the America's in person. They both look like Awesome events.

Vettel killed it. Pretty good racing overall. A good one.

Didn't read/hear anything about the Kimi stuff, I'll have to investigate.

I read today that an investor had joined Lotus and they claim that they have paid Kimi "and then some" whatever that means. They also want Lotus to sign Hulkenburg....they also promise that Kimi will indeed race the last two races.
