F1 Thread - 2018 Season

[cookster]

Just read about Ferrari who get a historical bonus payment of £70m each season and whether after 2021 it may stop.

Wouldn’t be the same if they were not in it.

The Rags of F1, always get favourable decisions. They need F1 just as much.

Anyone watching the race today?

I will be mate. Never miss a race, even when on holiday.

Should be a good one mate, I expect an interesting strategy from Merc to push Lewis up the pecking order.
Could quite easily see a Ferrari 1-2 though today

I've got a feeling Kimi will get the win today.

1) Kimi
2) Seb
3) one of the Red Bulls

unless Vettel's engine blows up or he completely blows it, then no chance. Ferrari won't let Kimi win ahead of Seb.

Can't see it myself, think seb has got too much about him, I'll change my predictions from Thursday night to:
1) Seb
2) Kimi
3) Riccardo

Lol the conspiracies roll on, when will people just accept Seb is a much better driver?

Should be good this with Lewis and Max down the pack on a track where passing is more than possible.

I'll go for Dani Ric ftw.

First corner could be very interesting...

well he's a better driver, but it's clear there have been several times that Kimi has been faster and in the lead or in the prime position and Vettel's been given the better strategy to get him ahead, or Kimi hasn't been allowed to challenge him (Monaco and Hungary, Australia etc.)

It's no different to Schumacher and Barrichello, or Alonso and Massa, Ferrari are known for picking their favourite.

Hungary is the only one I agree on.
If they had sent him into the pits last at Monaco and Australia people would complain that seb had fresher tyres going into the middle leg of the race and catch him

I don't agree, but hey-ho.
