Race highlight clip with RUS response on radio after lead cars took each other out was . RPM should start posting videos again on YT about the last few races - so much material.

[MrH]

Perez had a hole in his side pod
Maybe that's why he couldn't get by the Hulk.
The race shouldn't been close.
Max had 6 sec pit stop that allowed Norris to be close.

Any engine is better than what they are using.
Why not a Ferrari or Honda engine?
If they take a Honda engine then most likely Alpine will have to take a Japaneese driver.

Berman to Haas for 2025.

[hi5.0]

Wish him the best of luck. But that means HAAS has to get their act together...

[torquemada]

Perez is blowing up. And its not helping in the WCC.
So is Leclerc. He was 2nd in the WDC
Can Max pull another rabbit out of a hat and win. He damage his floor pretty good. Gets a new one for the race.
Sargeant 12?
I think Norris will this race.

So now MCL and MB are faster than SF. SAR showing PER what's up in a Williams.
This guy's channel is my guilty pleasure. Abrasive, but so entertaining IMO.

That was funny.
I thought Vasser straighten out thoses bumbling boobs in the Ferrari garage.
Guess not.
Wondering if Newey is having second thoughts about signing on.
Speaking of Newey, is he still doing the updates on Redbull cars?
It seems like nothing is working and Mercedes and McLaren caught up.

Like to see next year's drivers lineup settled already. Maybe SAI can come out of this not too badly? If OCO remains in F1, the team that signs him should be allowed an exception and paint the second car a different color to reduce "blue on blue" incidents.

[MrH]

Looks like Ocon & Berman are the '25 Haas drivers
Haas exstended engine deal with Ferrari to 2028, but Toyota is still in the mix.
Seems like Andretti is not going to see the grid anytime soon unless somebody does someting about Maffei.
