Re: 2024 discussion thread
Prompted by a post from this weekend's GP - is Charles le Clerc any good? He's better than most people on this planet. He's better than Al Pease or Yuji Ide. He is probably the best Monegasque driver of the 21st century. He's probably not as good as Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher or Juan Manuel...

Re: Reject of the Race - Bahrain 2024
Just watched the race highlights on the Formula One YouTube channel. They showed Bottas having a 52 second pit stop, but showed nothing as to why Sargeant finished so far behind Bottas. That’s rejectful in itself if you ask me.

Re: Reject of the Race - Bahrain 2024
(1) The state of F1: fell asleep at one point during the race. You’re not the only one. Although in my case, I’m having a blood test to investigate the tiredness… Alpine has to be a nomination, but if this form is not a one-off, this would become a contender for Reject of the Year. Sargeant also ha...

A backronym is treating a regular word or name as if it were already an acronym, even though it isn’t really. For example: Fast, Exciting Racing? Rarely! Aerodynamics’s Rarely Innovative.

Re: 2024 discussion thread
According to Bernie Ecclestone, Max would win even in a McLaren, Ferrari, or Mercedes. Do you agree with him? I suppose it would depend on who took Max's Red Bull seat. If it were someone like Yuji Ide, then sure, Max would win. But put someone in the Red Bull like Fernando or Lewis in their prime ...

The 2023/24 silly season was not at all silly. Not even a will he/won't he of any significance. Next season will start as 2023 ended. No change in driver line up anywhere on the grid.
