F1 2025 Season

[jimharri]

Street races don’t have to be rubbish though. I might be in a minority (maybe?) but I’ve always been a fan of Singapore. Night race with all the fireworks and lights, unpredictable weather, no room for error. Overtaking can sometimes be hard but I’ve always found it a really interesting race with the zero margin for error and importance of strategy.

Vegas and Monaco can fuck right off though.

Singapore isn't the worst. At least there's potential for overtaking there. At Monaco is next to impossible. And yeah; night races do look impressive. Not sure what the broadcasters make of them. Artificial lighting may present different technical challenges for them?

Norris may win the championship in a few weeks but Max’s class is still above the rest.

Norris & Piastri both facing possible disqualification, brilliant drive from Max again, like him or not, he's some driver

Without doubt, the best driver on the grid. But no longer in the best car. If all the drivers were in identical spec cars, he'd be the one to beat.

You obviously know that these races are scheduled years in advance, with tickets being sold and contracts with sponsors, broadcasters etc being agreed way, way back. Much as you may not like it, there's no way these races won't be held. The lawsuits that F1 would face would make 115 look like a teddy bear's picnic!

Absolutely, if all cars were equal, the drivers championship would be well & truly over

 

[jimharri]

As expected, both the McLarens have been disqualified. Even so, Norris is still in a good position; 24 points ahead, with two races to go. A win next weekend seals the title, if my maths are correct (which is not always the case). With a race to spare. If you'd offered him that scenario last spring,, I seriously doubt he'd have turned it down!

What a silly error by the team given the position they were in. Really stupid.

Standings for the last 2 races. All it takes is one thing from Norris and Max is right on his tail. He’ll surely feel the pressure, and I wouldn’t be surprised if RB whip out the Saudi 21 tactics again. It definitely is close enough.

Not quite. Don't forget there's a sprint race next week as well so there's still plenty of points up for grabs.

Liberty Media will be wanking over McClarens error keeping the driver championship alive.

Completely forgot about the sprint. Cheers.

Mate I don’t care who wins
All I’m saying is it’s happened before and Max would want to get into the McLarens’ heads.

He's already in there.

 

[Rodri’s ACL]

He's already in there.

Exactly. He’s going to want to keep poking them.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Exactly. He’s going to want to keep poking them.

This is what sets him apart from the rest of the field.

He's got that **** streak that I rarely see in others. It wouldn't surprise me of he won it on the last race.
