Sorry to hear that news

Eddie Jordan was a great character

He was fighting prostate cancer - get your self checked out even if only the blood test every couple of years but better if combined with an examination.

One of the characters that one doesn't really see these days. Seriously wealthy, always seemed to love life, and why not?

Great stuff, hope it continues tomorrow 👍
If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Just remember GP due off at 0700 tomorrow morning.

Who will be replacing Liam Lawson in the not too distant future, Perez?

Three brits in the top six, great stuff, I fear Lawson will be history very soon. Marko got that one wrong it seems.

Their tactics were good. Just didn't have the speed of the Mclarens or Mercedes or Max's car. How would their tactics have been better? :S. Not putting a new nose on Leclerc's car was a brave decision, and the right one . I thought very early on that he would keep it how it was. It took ages for the commentators to cotton on to it!.

Ferret is referring to the disqualifications rather than the less than ideal race management by fail-arri. Note that the two cars were DSQ for different reasons, Hamilton for the skid plate (again) and Leclerc for being underweight(Akin to Russell in Belgium last year).

Ferret. My post was before I heard about the DSQ. You were spot on, of course!.

Haha, no worries. FWIW, I think they managed the race well too. It’s so frustrating being a Lewis fan nowadays. He’s clearly still got the ability to win races, if only he had the tools underneath his backside to consistently compete.

It seems that even the car built for Max, is very difficult to drive for him. Whoever gets the second seat will experience the same issues as Albon, Gasly, Perez and now Lawson.

Ferrari are just Ferrari. I find it interesting that Lewis said after Saturday they made some changes which in turn hampered the car. Surely you wouldn't look to fox with what was a winning formula, if you like :S

Looking ever increasingly likely that Yuki Tsunoda will swap with Lawson before the Japanese GP. Wow, that’s really unbelievable. Can’t they just accept they’ve made a crap car?

Ah - Seemingly Honda who currently pay £10m for Tsunoda’s seat offered an extra £10m last year, for him to be next to Max - a couple of articles now reporting they still want to pay close to this.

Now official. So that's Tsunoda's career over and Lawson to qualify in the top 10 from now on :pop:

The fact that Max has said it's a car issue and didn't want Lawson to go, just shows how crazy the "seniors" are.

You can bet that will happen in Japan!
