PeePee's F1 thread

[EeePee]

Yeah, don't bother then.

[DickyT]

Watched it, did not hear anything important said. At least he wasn't complaining about anything!

[DickyT]

I love the on car video from Monaco. Way to go on His first P1 qual for HAM there!

[EeePee]

That was intadesting. Someone at Merc certainly is gonna be let go.

[Krakker]

Did you catch that Bernie Ec interview with Nicco? Talk about your your Prickness...... That guys got too much power IMO., too much influence as well. If you want whats best for F1 Bernie, shut up and let teams race.

Probably just trying to be as much of a Douche as he can before he ends up in Prison.

[EeePee]

Bernie is always full of himself. He's made of money. Money rules. He knows it.

[DickyT]

Wonder who Merc's scapegoat firing will be? Disappointing end to a race that should have had a different outcome. Not only did the arrows "make a mistake", they screwed themselves out of a 1-2 podium...

Way to screw things up young rookie.

[EeePee]

Yeah, Max. I'm a little outspoken about the 17 year old. Maybe not here but in person. Part of me says, finally. Part of me says, told ya it was gonna happen. Should knock some sense of fear into the kid.

[lunatick]

I,m really trying to like these new hybrid turbo contraptions

But they sound POO

[EeePee]

They even said they sound great at Monaco... cause of the valley.

I always said I think they sound good.

[DickyT]

I like the sound of them, it has really grown on me. And the technology behind them really intrigues me. Getting around the same circuits as a few years ago on 1/3 less fuel at the same type of speeds. Good stuff!

[halfcab]

The stupid thing about F1........ and I am an F1 fan, is all the crap about all the rule changes aimed at lowering the cost. Example ......... Motor limits, trans limits as a way to keep costs down, and then change the type of engin/ "power unit" every 2-3 years just when they start to get them figured out they make them spend tens of millions to start over again. Huge $$$$ savings right there........ NOT.

[SkaldidDog]

VES was on point until he buried it into a barrier. We'll be talking about him fo many years to come. VET was a damn school boy after his first kiss. Refreshing and fun to see.

Feel bad for HAM...wait a minute...$150M...not overly. We have all wasted vast sums of effort at work due to poor upper management decisions. Shake it off mate.

Williams needs to show up in Canada. McL is coming.

Rodger Penske once said aggression is something you can't develop in a driver it has to be there to start with.

[EeePee]

Many people say many things. Aggression is a lack of fear. 10 years later I'm still fearful I'll break my ankle again. Before that, the thought never even crossed my mind. Despite three sprains. I really hate that feeling.

You can only dive bomb people for so long before something goes wrong. I can't remember who he hit but there was definitely some inside pass dive bomb intention there. Coupled with whoever it was slowing just a tad early and WHAM! And walked away. That barrier took a huge hit.

I think these guys forget just how freaking fast they're going.

If I paid you the money Max was paid, you'd let me break your ankle and smile.

[SkaldidDog]

At least to me it seems Mad Max has a bright future after he gets over his overzealous adolescent accidents phase.

Crashtor leaves me without that feeling though.

Does RAI stand for...

Retire
Again
IceMan

???

[DickyT]

I agree Joel. Give him a few years to mature behind the wheel of an F1 seat and future champion potential is there. The kid is talented, though quite overzealous in his rookie year. and the RAI, funny!

EP, it was Grosjean that he smacked into, who certainly broke early. Very possibly because he saw Max dive to the inside.

But then who will give the best interviews?

[EeePee]

I probably would let you break it again for that money. Bad thoughts though. Rough three months.

I think Grosjean said brakes were overheating so he slowed early. Early in these cars is relative. I could watch it again but meh.

I can't decifer whether Kimi has all the updates or not. Last race had a mix and this one isn't clear to me. I could watch it again but meh. I foresee him doing one more year because Ferrari won't pay for Bottas' last year at Williams to get him in red a year sooner.
