Fascinating watching Russel yesterday behind the Safety Car....not sure exactly what he was trying to do ,keep tyres warm
spose ,but touched his throttle just a little to much...Bam lost the Car.. spun/shot off the track.
Just goes to show how highly strung these things are,and hard to drive.

I think he told one of the course marshall's to fuck off half a dozen times before deciding "Fuck it, I'm out of here."

Yeah was pissed off...Knew he'd screwed up.. made it worse he was in a point scoring place.

Think he must have turned to weave and accelerated at same time.

Hmmm, F1 have just announced a multi year deal to race in Saudi Arabia from 2021.
What are the chances of Mr. Hamilton donning an 'Arrest the crown Prince who ordered Jamal Khashoggi killed' t-shirt?
I get the feeling that that much lauded social conscience might have an inconvenience clause when it comes to the rich and undemocratic homes to F1 races... China, Saudi, Bahrain, UAE, Turkey.
Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.

Just saw the race, WOW!!!!... Lewis what seemed out of the race win. The Turkish grand prix proved a track we were hoping for, very icy conditions. Apart from Lewis, everyone made a mistake, some more then others, including Bottas and Verstappen.

Lewis wins the race, what seemed impossible and like Jenson Button won the 2011 Canadian grand prix and title in 2009. Hamilton achieved a similar race.

NOW A 7TH TITLE CHAMPION.

Seen a few great youtube coverage of Perez, why he should never leave F1..... Most consistent driver on the grid other then Lewis Hamilton scoring points in every race this season.

"If Perez can't bank his seat as a driver with consistency, speed, and strong financial backing in his favor, then there must be precious few on the grid whose futures are truly in their own hands." This statement is spot on.

Hope Red Bull can catch him.

Don't agree with that statement.

These F1 drivers are at the top of their game. An average Joe Blow will not survive in a F1 car at those speeds.

Plus this was one of the best performances by Lewis to win the Turkish Grand Prix, while everyone else made a mistake in the race.
