2024 Formula One Season

But this was clearly "engineered" to reduce Lando's points advantage over Max at Singapore... every point will count at the end of the season
I'm not disputing that, however, I very much doubt it will be noted as engineered in the record books, so Ricciardo get's another Fastest Lap, just as, in the forseeable future Lando gets given a podium that he did not earn.
I was a little disgruntled about Ricciardo getting driver of the day though, just because it's most likely his last F1 race, Norris was much more deserving, as was Hulkenberg, Verstappen, Sainz, Colapinto, and Leclerc.
 
Daniel Riccardo is out of formula 1 this is the most sad news in F1 history but welcome liam to get another chance
If this is the most sad news in F1 history then I give up. So many deaths on tracks (in a past and in last few years with MotoGP even more) and you write such stupid comment... I have no words.

EDIT: It's for sure a big loss for F1 grid as Danny is one of the most positive person there. Definitely sad news this year in F1 regarding to driver market moves and changes on grid. Especially when there are drivers who should leave after last season when we take a look at the stats.

I overreacted and was too harsh. I'm sorry. Maybe you should write 'this season' or something like that? I'm glad you understand, so added additional 'edit comment' to my previous post.

Not an ideal comeback for Liam who will start 10 places back from his sprint qualifying spot in Austin after his team decided to equip his VCARB01 F1 car with a new power unit.

Look at the positive side, if he starts his albeit 'short' first season in F1 at the back of the grid then he can't go backwards, 'the only way is up' as they say. he'll be fine.
Nobody's expecting him to outpace Yuki just yet, so it's better to just settle in and enjoy the next half a dozen races.
 
Charles Leclerc wins the United States GP ahead of his teammate Carlos Sainz with give Ferrari a one-two finish.

Take 2

Liam 1 Yuki 0



:p
And this is why Yuki won't be getting the seat next to max, by the end of the season Red Bull will know if Liam has the seat or not, it does seem strange though that Red Bull used to have a sea of talent to pick from and they all went through the gates at Torro Rosso first, but recently there's so few experienced drivers to choose from.
 
I think you will see 3 areas Liam will excel, car setup, managing tyres and managing races.
Yuki asked how did this happen, I assume he meant how did Liam finish in front of me.
Every time I saw Yuki fighting someone he started on the losing side.
He just would not concede costing himself time and rubber.

Looks like Max in a bit of bother, maybe engine change.
McLaren loses appeal,

People surprised Ted knows The Fibonacci Sequence.
Hands up who has not watched "The Da Vinci Code"

McLaren's defence has been deemed "unsustainable" as there's no relevant new element to it, as required to trigger a right of review hearing.Norris must keep his US GP penalty.

Sky sports are nothing but bad sports.
They spend 10 minutes of P2 talking about it instead of using their F1 show to whine, losers.
Arguing because Lando was ahead at the apex means he can gain position off track is ludicrous.

They never went close to touching and Lando immediately opened up the wheel to get the best run back on the to track showing he had no intention of obeying the letter of the rule he breached, not Max.

McLaren now saying oh the message we gave Lando was wrong.
Well whoop de doo, doesn't that just compound it ?

McLaren made a dumb decision in not swapping the place immediately and trying again.
It wasn't like it was the last lap in the grand prix.
The title chase for them, is a long-shot at best.
For them to even get remotely close, Max would have to suffer no less than two no points GP...with Lando winning over the next races.
He'd still be at a massive deficit...with a very slim chance at winning the WDC.

I wholly agree with you, the British Sky broadcasters are an embarrasment to the sport, Brundle should know better than to support his pay packet over his credability, he's knowegable, has respect in the racing fraternity and knows how to drive a car, but all too often seems to have his views tainted to nod towards the British contingent...
I say that as a Brit, and a Motor race fan, I even hail from the same neck of the woods as his Lordship (Hamilton) and worked in Rye House, but that doesn't taint my belief that British get over supported by the British 'RedTop' gutter press.
For me, Hamilton had his time in the sun, and was and even now is rudely quick, Norris, is quick and smooth, but prone to a lack of self belief (only he can sort that out...Red Top press can only put more weight on his shoulders), George was fantastic in the Williams, but given a car that has a chance to hit the top spot he's found to be a little less fantastic.
On the other hand, Max wasn't the apple of my eye when he entered F1, but wow, has he grown, a worthy multi world Champion, and a complete Lion, if you even think about relaxing he'll have you! and, as a Motor racing fan, yeah, he ticks the boxes.

As for the Norris-Verstappen T12? problem, it's quite clear that Verstappen ran wide after trying to defend into that corner, but Norris was so wide that he could carry way more speed than if he's stayed on the track, as we saw, he accelerated past the Red Bull like a rocket, thus he gained a significant advantage, Verstappen however did not gain an advantage by leaving the track.
So, Norris should have been TOLD to give the place back and do the overtake later, McLaren need to take the reins and tell the driver what to do not cosset his in case it upsets him, when Norris decides to take control he'll do it, until then McLaren should remember that they're the Boss
Added to that, it was Norris's fourth track limit excursion, Verstappen hadn't even recieved a warning for track limit offences!
