BGOL Ongoing Formula One Thread: 2025 Season

[Hey Julian!]

Oh okay. Yeah, he's a bust. He's scared to take it to the edge.

Man, I just knew he would dominate when he got to F1. They way he dominated GP2 that season he became champ, I think was the biggest gap to 2nd ever in that series. Maybe Alonzo killed his confidence. Maybe that shit Honda PU did it, but was not the same driver he was in GP2.

Agreed. I've been watching for over 50 years and I can never figure out why some drivers just seem able to, idk, ignore or compartmentalize the risk and just push and push the edge. And the very best not only push it, they seem to be good friends with it. Like Lewis. The ones who push but fight with the edge are always inferior IMO.

 

[Flawless]

Y'all disrespecting Lewis. If it was the car that was making him win how do you explain Bottas's performance?

Yes. Just saw this myself. Valteri might be looking for a new seat.

 

[Simply_Black]

Almost time for the start of Sakhir Grand Prix... I'm anxious to see how Russell does in the Mercedes as Hamilton's replacement.

Wild first lap.... 3 cars out already.

 

[Hey Julian!]

I can only read the play by play cause im
At drill, but it sounds like Bottas is gonna be out of a job come 2022. Who’s fault was the clash between Leclerc and Verstsppen?

Perez turned into Leclerc by the corner... Verstappen tired to take evasive action by going off track but couldn't avoid going into barrier.

Perez initially seems to be at fault but the Stewards might see it as racing incident.

.... also earlier today MicK Schumacher won the Formula 2 title.

 

[Hey Julian!]

Racing point probably watching these last races with Perez, looking at Vettel’s performance like...

 

[HisFlyness]

Wow!

 

[Duece]

If I'm Russell I'm beating up that entire garage.

 

[Hey Julian!]

Happy, for Checo, this win was a long time coming. Racing Point looks more retarded by the week. Spent more money on a washed WDC and will get even less return on that money once they realize, he’s not the same 4-Time champ he was at RBR. If RBR doesn’t put Perez in that seat, it means Helmut Marko is a stubborn bastard. What can I say about Bottas, he just made a rookie make him look like a certified 2nd driver.

 

[WorldEX]

I know the wolfs were waiting to attack Lewis's Comment few weeks ago, today's race only reinforces his point.
Hamilton has put car vs driver debate to rest
Hamilton: Turkey shows it was me, not the car

“And I think today hopefully you can see… I think I deserve my respect.

“I think I have that with my peers. I think they can see how hard… they will know how hard today is, particularly that it is not a car thing.”

A few minutes to race time.... Verstappen on pole being chased by the two Mercedes... the start and first two corners will be very interesting.

 

[Flawless]

Mercedes really fucked up the last 2 races of the year.

'We can talk if we want to do more' says Hamilton as he explains why he only signed a one-year contract

'We can talk if we want to do more' says Lewis Hamilton as he explains why he only signed a one-year contract | Formula 1®

Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton says his future with Mercedes will be decided on the fly, as he enters the 2021 season having signed a one-year contract with the Silver Arrows over the winter.

www.formula1.com

Last year, Hamilton launched his own commission to improve diversity in motorsport – The Hamilton Commission – and also launched the Mulberry STEM Academy with Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff, to encourage students from ethnic minority groups to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

The Mulberry STEM Academy recently hosted their first session, with Mercedes technical director James Allison taking part in the virtual lesson to 40 students.

Those Red Bulls surprised the fuck out of everybody.

[Hey Julian!]

It adds to all the hype and drama... but you know deep down those cacs are praying that their great white hope defeats Hamilton this season.
