OK, lots to digest on this one:
Renault:
apparently they gave some parting presents to RBR, (in good humour) one of which was "Anti Moaning" breath spray for Max. He may well need a refill next year, going by the Honda blowouts. Also they would have still finished ahead of Force India and Racing Point combined. Mission accomplished, and the Hulk secured P7 as well. Great drive from Carlos, Thank you, wish him all the best at McL
RBR:
On the grid Marko was asked if they could win, and he spoke solely about Max's chances, not a word about Dan. I believe as before that Horner tries to be fair. But it's clear, Marko does not feel the same. Still a nice send off by RBR to Dan at the end, and to his credit, even gave Marko a hug. Dunno how mutual it was.
The Hulk incident:
I will reserve my "opinion" for the appropriate thread. But this is exactly the type of accident, that many have predicted, thankfully there was no serious fire, pros and cons, still firmly undecided. Nico said it did hinder from getting out, but then again, he said he's never been upside down before, so doesn't know if it would have been any different. Great response from the marshals though
Vandoorne: Finally showed, he has some skill, too little too late though.
Kimi: Finishing 3rd, has to go to the prize giving, Max says he'll do if it counts as his community service, LOL
Alonso:
Great last time out team radio, "OK there's a point in this . . . . turn it up"
Alonso, "I have 1800 points"
Engineer "for me, make it 1800 and 1" LOL
And he tried every trick in the book to do it, cutting 3 corners, resulting in three 5 sec penalties. Didn't affect the result, but harsh, and how the feck did Bottas not get penalised? Apparently though, he was actually on 1899 points, so if he'd made it, it could have rounded it up
Great send off though seeing Lewis and Seb drive alongside him, and the synchronised donuts on the finish line, great stuff, great to see the mutual respect of all. Finally though I can buy a McL hat, to add to my collection, it will be the one worn this weekend, Kimoa 14, cheers for the entertainment Fonzy
Lewis: Nuff said, I can't add to it, we'll all hear and read enough. Credit where it's due, superstar
Marcus Erricson: Bye then
Coverage:
Gotta give it to C4 this weekend though for their track selection, when doing the Kubica story, I have this song synced my skydive from years ago. Don Fardon
