So what if he whinges all the drivers whinge if they don't get their own way. In my experience every human being with a penis becomes a baby when behind the wheel - you only need to see their reaction when you accidentally cut them up!
True, but none anywhere near on the level as boy wonder, except maybe Stroll and previously Vettel.
And every human being isn't being paid multiple millions to drive the best machinery in the biggest motorsport around.

To also quite red bull fans from the last 8 seasons, 'its only because he's got the best car'.

Are the Mercedes cars vastly different from each other, or is Russell simply a better driver than Hamilton?

No he isn't [yet]. He had better luck in qualifying, and in the race, he benefited hugely from Sainz's spin holding other people up, from which he gained places. There is little to show that he is better than Lewis at the moment. Let's talk that towards the end of the season.

Is Russell a better driver than Hamilton?!!

What?

Hamilton is the only driver in history to have won a race in every single season he has competed in (I just watched the high lights and they said that) edit - this season could turn out to be the exception!

Russell seems to be doing ok but made a couple of mistakes in over taking on Sunday , too late on the brakes etc. I am not a Russell fan - not enough humility or modesty for me - when he starts winning under pressure then he can talk the big I am.

Ha, ha! I wouldn't go that far . But maybe his driving style is more in balance with the current pig of a Merc. Or ( puts tongue firmly in cheek), being a younger man his body can absorb the effects of the 'porpoising' more so than ol' man Lewis :) .

Have to say well done to Maximilian and RB. They completely dominated the weekend. Hopefully not a sign for the future.

I wouldn't totally write off Mercedes or Hamilton just yet - if they can sort out the under floor aero or ground effect then the rest of the package could still be very strong. Agreed it is a big IF - they need a solution by Miami ideally.

Bet 365 are offering Hamilton at 40-1 for the 2022 drivers championship.

That's not bad odds worth a cheeky wee bet that.

Got to be worth a tenner.. :Wow:
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Audi and Porsche are aiming to enter F1 as of 2026. With Audi aiming to buy out an existing team (Sauber, Williams and McLaren currently being touted), and Porsche entering as the engine supplier to Audi(?) and the scum (red bull).

IMO it would be a shame to lose any of those teams, even more so as we would end up in exactly in the same position as now, 10 teams and 4 engine suppliers. It can't be argued that Monaco is a classic circuit if the above teams are not classic teams.

Monaco is indeed a classic circuit, and always will be in my opinion, along with Spa and Monza, Silverstone is pretty good ;)

Interlargos always a good circuit been some classic races there over the years.

Agree Monaco is a classic circuit but most races there are boring, Spa, Monza and Silverstone great tracks :thumbs:

Really looking forward to another new circuit this weekend in Miami.
