That slighted edited I would agree with....
Edit away.

Clearly Mercedes wanted a German champion. LHs' car was literally unbelievably unreliable in comparison with Rosbergs' who also took the opportunity to ram LH out of his way whenever convenient and "oops" accidentally stop him from getting pole at Monaco etc. Watching Rosberg pretend to lose control and accidentally park his car where it would end qualifying is without doubt the worst display of unsportsmanlike behaviour I have ever seen.

Don't remember this then!

Are they in Formula E ?

If they're not already the probably soon will be. It's where all the OEMs who are leaving F1, Le Mans etc end up.

Formula E.... eew.

That has to be the dullest racing ever.

Agreed, sounds like a bunch of kids with RC cars on Christmas morning.

It does seem to be the dumping ground for F1 rejects and those not good or lucky enough to to get there.

Tbh - if that’s the future of racing, it’s done for.

Loads more variation in winner though, plus actual overtakes.

I think anyone born after about 2010 won't give a shit about how vehicles sound. Maybe that's losing something, maybe it's not, but that's how it will be IMO.

I have no doubt it’s the future. It seems a shame though mans greatest invention is arguably the ICE.

Post by **Mr. Dazzle** » Fri Oct 02, 2020 10:15 pm

I think a machine that produces useful mechanical work -I.e. a driveshaft or something like it - and which far outstrips animals is one of the most significant inventions. But piston engines specifically? No not really.

Wreckless Rat · Post by **Wreckless Rat** » Fri Oct 02, 2020 10:23 pm

I disagree, Ho hum.

Most drive shafts are connected to an ICE of some sort.... a

Post by **Mr. Dazzle** » Fri Oct 02, 2020 10:35 pm

Right now maybe, but it was steam engines that kicked it all off and its electric drives which will take it in future.

Even today I'd bet most driveshafts are actually attached to an electric motor when you consider all the industrial applications. Plus trains, trams etc.

Can anyone really argue it wasn’t simply his skill and tenacity that shone today?

Let me guess... he was lucky....

Amazing drive, to win that after being 6th on the grid and to manage to do it on only one pit stop surely proves it is not just the car that is superior.

Indeed. People will have you believe verstappen could whoop Hamilton, if only his car was faster... today what did he do, he spun it, not just once either... finishing some 30 odd seconds behind.

Today Hamilton shone - his skill, his patience, his tactical skill whooped the entire line up. Well done Lewis - a worthy champ, yet again.

Max really lost his cool, you might argue he was a bit unlucky but you need to ride your luck. Lewis is calmness personified and as a driver, he is a bit good. I did like Charles having a do at the last. Proper racing.

They should resurface all the tracks.

Had SWMBO on the phone to me initiating a conversation about the race today...an absolute corker of a race and a(nother) well-deserved Championship for Lewis.

...and spray them with water during the race if the rain doesn't do it for them.
