So I tried this last year and got about 8 posts total. First GP of 2013 starts in 15 mins, who's in?

EDIT: 2019 time.

Go Kimi

Was a pretty decent race, like that the tyres are degrading quicker

Yeah Kimi was amazing

The tyrewear seems to be all over the place between different cars, was impressed with Sutil making his tyres last so long

KIMI

Fuckin' BUMP

Quite terrible Monaco GP. Fantastic Massa and Grosjean moronics aside, this was a snoozefest behind SC:s for too long and got even worse with Perez moron crash with Kimi at the end

Perez is blaming Kimi but noone else is on his side, not even Whitmarsh. huahua. Those last two laps from Kimi though, wow. The last pass on Hulk was fucking loco, waggling about like crazy under braking into Saint-Devote.

Two weeks break before Canada, will be interesting to see how different the new Pirellis will be.

Worst race I've seen in years. Saftey car came at the worst time, removed pitstops from the equation which were going to be the only chance for some change in position.

The man who spun away his first world championship point, a winner? It sounds incongruous, doesn’t it, yet Renault’s Jolyon Palmer deserves to be credited thus even if the big reward ultimately escaped him.

Verstappen added that Raikkonen and Vettel should be "ashamed" of criticising him and accused them of causing the first-corner collision between the three that damaged all their cars.

"If they screw up my race, I'm not going to make it easy for them," he said. "I think they should understand that.

"I'm not going to say: 'come on through'. But all that happened after turn one. If turn one hadn't happened, I wouldn't have been so aggressive and pushed Raikkonen out like that."

Admitting it was just payback. Well played Max. "No, I wasn't being reckless, I was being childish!"

He was aiming for it at the end of last season and it looks like he will get it. Even barring a DNF he basically has the points.

I don't know who to root for, but I know this much I enjoy this sport and all of it's drama.

idk, the Renault-Lotus-Renault incarnation of Renault F1 has been p. dire for awhile now. I almost want to type that it's a downgrade to go from Force to Renault at this point, but...

Momo · « **Reply #32 on:** October 17, 2016, 11:12:31 PM »

It is a downgrade at this point in time but Renault are a factory team, in 2 or 3 seasons they will be up there

Take My Breh Away · « **Reply #33 on:** October 18, 2016, 06:08:28 AM »

Renault have been steadily improving and flirting with points the last few races. Next year I could see them being a potential points contender across all races along with Haas (Who just need to solve their brakes issue because they have been very fast lately and I'd expect them to do well at COTA and Mexico). At the same time, Force India have a good car and they could land a decent replacement for Hulk. Perez has been ridiculously quick this season as well. So they won't be hurting for potential replacements.

At the minute it's looking like that unless your team name is Sauber. Everything's looking up for next year.

Rosberg is retiring from F1 and won't defend his championship.

Basically, holy shit. Especially since Hamilton is still not on board for 2017 yet so Merc might lose both drivers.

McLaren lol! Mercedes sandbagging in testing is nothing new, we'll see how far off the others really are soon enough, but first impressions are it's going to be like last season but with quicker lap times. Ferrari weren't really any stronger in the race-sim runs, actually a bit slower. Dunno about RBR, but wouldn't trust that Renault drivetrain yet

I'm sure Bottas will beat Hammy quite a few times. I'll now remind you that Nico Fucking Rosberg beat him to the championship last year.

Nico Rosberg always looked way above average though, from Williams days right through to hanging with Oldmacher

Ferrari weren't really any stronger in the race-sim runs, actually a bit slower. Dunno about RBR, but wouldn't trust that Renault drivetrain yet

Everyone seems to be holding their cards close to their chest even in the first Aussie FP sessions and there's a lot of accusations of sandbagging going on since the Barca tests. I don't think we'll see a clear picture of what's going on till the first qualifying and they go all out. I could see this easily being a Vettel Vs Hamilton year. Bottas always had great pace but he's always been poor in hard racing situations (See every time Kimi run him off the road the last few years) so he's going to find it really hard against Hamilton when trying to pass because Hamilton is super agressive under pressure and it cost Hamiltoon a few times last year. Never mind people like Kimi (Who he had plenty of literal run ins with the last few years) and Ricciardio. Meanwhile, if Seb has the pace to run with Hamilton, they will be at each other, especially since Seb has grown less afraid of getting into it with other drivers for position compared to the dominant years. He got the Tifosi temperament, now.

The Hass and Renaults seem to have got a good dose of speed though. Hard to hide that (Even when Palmer flies into the gravel and gets the session red flagged). Hopefully Hass got their brake issues sorted (When they meant bringing American motorsport to F1 last year, they shouldn't have included the ARCA Brakes). Williams look like they have another year of struggling even with Massa pulled out of retirement. lol McLaren and Sauber.

It's going to be an interesting season.

Seb in 2nd only within 0.2 to Hamilton though after years of being over a second off front row pace

I'd take that instead of being a whole second off the pace. Red Bull seemed to kinda blow it as well because Max was running everywhere and Ricci into the wall.

Also Grosjean getting 6th was a nice surprise. Hulk sticking in top 10 contention most of the day and only getting knocked out in the dying seconds of Q2 was good compared to Renaults last few seasons alone. More surprised the Force India's went out in Q2 since Perez was usually a lock to get to Q3 most of the time last year.

Race day is a different matter but that field is way tighter than expected so there might be something salvageable out of it after all.

OK Race. Rookies binning it everywhere, too much concern about the tires to really get going and losing Ricciardio at the start lost a lot of drama. But race pace is way up across the field compared to 2016 that it might be an interesting season.

That top 7 shoot out till pit strategy came in was insane since they were all near a second pace from Bottas down to Kimi. That Ferrari and Red Bull pit strategy actually works this year is pretty mindblowing. Plus it's becoming really obvious that Mercedes have way better qualifying pace than race pace.

Glad I'm going to Catalunya in a month for the GP
