Kerny92 1,246 Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 What a race today, after looking down and out yesterday Hamilton had an amazing comeback drive. The Ferrari still is the car to beat and Vettel has got to be favourite despite his massive error today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 4,926 Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 That wee bit of rain threw the cat amongst the pigeons and livened it right up. If it was up to me I’d have a sprinkler on every corner of every circuit, and switch one or two on at random every time a race got boring. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kerny92 1,246 Posted July 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Vettel will be kicking himself bigtime, to throw away a win like that is devastating and could end up costing him the title. The Ferrari is the best car though so still must be favourite IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deker 3,450 Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Already shaping up to be a good scrap...between a couple of teams, shame a few more can't get in the picture. Money talking still, even though I understand more plans are afoot to limit team spend! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The FIA rule book is already the size of the Encyclopedia Britannica (younger subscribers may need to look that up) so a few more chapters on finance shouldn't be a problem! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's alright on paper but governing it is a different ballgame, i doubt the likes of Ferrari and Mercedes will be completely transparent. If they have the money they will find a way to use it IMO.

To be fair that has gone through my mind as well, it would be a nightmare to police this, just the same, the FIA say they are looking at it! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Back of the grid to third and 14 on the grid to a win is not average. I would say he is having one of his best seasons. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
