I'm still trying to figure what is better/worse. The F1 yawn fest where nothing ever happens and the same team wins every race, or the Indy Car series where every race ends with 5 restarts. Ho hum.

Indycar have to stop racing on those damm street circuits.

THE HULK!
Still waiting for the stewards to to give him a 10 grid penalty just because its Haas.

I'm just happy that someone else other than Hamilton wins. Talk about being in the right car at the right time...how many years did that last...

Wet qualifying. Started drying at the begining of Q2
but started up again during Q2.

Yep. Once again they find a way to stick it up to Haas's rear end again.
Hulk gets a three place grid penaty.
They really hate for an American team to succeed in F1.
Thats why some teams don't want Andretti - GM into F1.

Cripes Ocon, can't get around that stinking Williams.
Keep that up and Alpine will make goo on their promise and pull the plug.
Alonso keeps getting podiums and Stroll keep fighting for 1 or 2 points.
Sargent not looking good
McLaren shut out again.
Once again Haas gets the short end. Gets screwed by a safety car and the Mag got ran off the road by de Vries.
Wow. Ferrari got the race strategy right for a change.

In Sargent's defense, he did not have the new upgrades on his car.

Not a good look when a customer team performs better than the "factory" team consistently - AM vs MB. May be a good thing AM plans to partner with Honda in the future. May wipe the smile off Alonso's face if he's still with them though...

What happen to AM & Mercedes updates. Looks like they are going backwards.
After 5 years Haas still hasn't fix their tyre issues.
Who hasn't gotten a time penalty.

Hamilton calls for F1 to act on domination.

https://www.pitpass.com/75489/Hamilt...-on-domination

Really Lewis. Were you saying that from 2014-2020.

AM protested the results due to many track limit violations not counted for.
Seems that they won.
Adjusted race results will soon follow.

If the Red Bull is so good, how come second place isn't closer to first place...oh, yeah, it's the driver that makes the big difference...

You could see that over the years when Lewis was dominating.

You can also see, over the decades, where one driver and designer, just seemed to jell.

the show must go on

Once again the the delay deploying the safety car when a Haas car caught fire on the track.

Daniel Ricciardo will make a shock in-season Formula 1 comeback with AlphaTauri from next week's Hungarian Grand Prix, replacing the ousted Nyck de Vries.

Thanks for the update.

Checo is constantly putting up good times during the race. . He frequently has fastest lap during the race, until Max pulls a last minute switch to softs to get the extra point. Checo's issue is with qualifying. If he were starting on the front row, he'd be sitting on podium every race, no question. He's proven that he can pass, and is damn good at it.

I'm disappointed to not see Fernando higher in the points, I was hoping he'd be higher up the list more regularly.

Also, not looking forward to the cringe of Riccardo fighting to get a point in the AT. They've really gotta get that AT car tweaked for him, I just don't think this is going to be the place for him, but good to see him back I guess.
