Angry Alonso over the radio is fun "worst racing car I have ever been in" and his response to being asked shall we go for Plan B "do whatever you want"

Horrible collision in the F4 at Donington today. Billy Monger taken to Nottingham hospital with possible leg injuries.

There's nothing graphic in that clip btw.

Honda fly out a new spec engine for the Bahrain test. Goes pop after two laps. Excellent work.

They were saying over the weekend that Sauber are taking Honda engines soon to help develop them and mclaren will get Mercedes. Not sure that's particularly fair on sauber but I assume they will be paid well for the sacrifice?

Not good. Underwent double amputation and only 17.

 

[The Bear]

Fucking hell. Horrible news.

 

[Nando]

Ah that's horrific news.

 

[Carrotdude]

Oh man that's really horrible. Hard to tell
What happened in the video, was the car he hit stationary? Poor kid

Sauber look at McLaren and think "I gotta get me some of that".

They're going to have Honda engines from next year as their relationship with Ferrari seems to be souring and they want the latest spec engines instead of last year's models.

 

[Nando]

They're probably getting paid to take them which is their main objective at the moment.

 

[Nando]

Fourth race of the season and the engine penalties are kicking in at McLaren. Farcical.

 

[Freddeno]

how long will it take to get them at least to complete races..crazy stuff and must cost fortunes!!!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Looking forward to seeing what Hamilton can do from fourth. Are Ferrari the real deal? They certainly look like it.

Should be a cracking race this.

 

[Nando]

Oh FFS McLaren.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

My thoughts exactly. This is pathetic.

 

[PuntsWolf]

How can they not build a car that functions. I don't understand.

 

[Nando]

No idea what Mercedes are doing here with Bottas.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Winning the race by the look of it.

Hamilton is a decade off the pace today. Very strange.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Naughty by Massa to ensure that Bottas is the winner.

 

[Nando]

Awesome Valtteri! Delighted for him.

Absolutely obliterated Lewis over the weekend.

Rather naughty by Felipe at the end...
