Yes. F1 needs more flashy colours on the grid. I see enough black and silver cars on the streets as it is, I don’t want to see them on race weekend too.

With this return to silver livery, some — including myself — wonder if perhaps it is a sign that Lewis Hamilton has indeed decided to walk away from F1...

Nice to see that he opted for quality hair plugs.

I’ll believe it when I see it.

I would imagine that if VAG were going to go the works team or some kind of alliance/partnership (think Honda/RB) route, it would be with one of the smaller teams like Haas or Williams. The kind of teams that need the money and attention that would come with such an arrangement and where there wouldn’t be a ton of…

Maybe if he wins another title without the FIA putting an massive asterisk on it then he will.

When Schumacher was dominating it was just too predicatable for too long.

Case in point, he’s only the fourth F1 driver to receive such an illustrious honor, following Sir Jackie Stewart in 2001, Sir Stirling Moss in 2000, and Sir Jack Brabham in 1979.

Don’t forget how much the Saudi leadership and Emiratis must’ve loved that he did it on their turf with a rainbow helmet, while speaking out about their horrendous human rights abuses/records.

Or city bus. 

Found the person who doesn’t keep razor blades strategically-placed in their wallet...

I’d have dropped it off at the local police station, with instructions that they just leave it in a drawer or one of the bathroom stalls for a week.

Honestly, I think Russell will be more of a challenge than Rosberg.

I had been thinking the same. Had Hamilton won that record 8th title, he’d have absolutely nothing left to prove and a record that stands for many years to come. Now what? He can still compete for that title, but nobody knows how the new regs will play out, who will have the best cars next year, etc. And there’s the…

And I’m getting annoyed still six days later of Random Internet Commenter saying Max’s isn’t a real title because the FIA gave it to him, as if he was supposed to not race the last lap, however it came about.

They were definitely in the background in these last two specials.   There were actually a number of minor characters in the background, I spotted Mimsy at the end of this one.

I want that first green cube-like one. I don’t know why, but I do.

I have a small wager with my brother that Russell will finish ahead of Hamilton in the points and usher in his decline.

Perhaps so, but he’s still not a socialist.
