Perez leaving Racing Point. Must mean Seb in for next season then

Confirmed he will be at Aston Martin as they will be called next season

This Mugello circuit is absolutely brilliant.

 

[Nando]

Absolute carnage. Ridiculous allowing them to crawl like that.

I'm with Grosjean there. Stupid from Bottas to have them going so slow all the way down the start straight.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

They need to move the safety car line much nearer the pit entry. That was lunacy.

 

[The Bear]

Seeing the replays there was a bit of a decent gap in the midfield and some thought that as an opportunity to floor it early and catch out the front runners by the start/finish line. But had to slow again catching this behind out.

Safety car line should always be out of the final corner.

Second red flag of the race as Stroll has a big shunt.

I thought on the day that there was a big gap in midfield that caused the crash as someone tried to guess when it was going to go.



Looks like George was a big contributor.

 

[Nando]

Looks very much like Mick will be in f1 next season - he's been very, very impressive recently.

 

[Tredman]

Crazy end to Q2.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

And then Lewis fires a monster lap in for Q3. He needs to be on pole and scoot away on the soft tyres as everyone else is going to be on the mediums to start.

 

[Nando]

That's brutal. Valtteri is a top guy and a good driver in his own right but Lewis has completely broken him - Heikki style.

Really not seeing the benefit in giving him another season with Russell waiting in the wings and clearly outperforming his machinery. .

Well getting rid of Honda in the long run looks like excellent work by McLaren. Gone at the end of 2021.

Luca Corberi has said he has now quit the sport following this...

 

[t3ch]

just getting into f1 for the first time this year. I've never really paid much attention to it, but watched the netflix series and it got me into watching the races. played like 200 hours of motorsport manager and been watching the replays on f1tv. :icon_lol:

no one I know watches so I guess I'll come here to talk about !

 

[Nando]

Motorsport Manager is ace!
