That overtaking move by Verstappen on the last lap was great, but once again he was too aggressive with all 4 wheels leaving the track. I thought poor old Raikkonen was gonna be screwed over again, man what an insult that would've been for him yet again. Geez, Raikkonen is very reserved and always seems pissed compared to the other drivers, even on the podium he just started drinking the champagne rather than spraying it on his fellow podium mates lol. Is he a bit like yourself? Reserved, alone, furious and drinks a bit too much?  He also likes poo-poo humour! |

Yo Lommaren this weekend Sepang MotoGP will be good for sure man! Let's see if Dovizioso can win here. He really needs to win here to have a decent chance at the championship. |

Yo Lommaren this weekend Sepang MotoGP will be good for sure man! Let's see if Dovizioso can win here. He really needs to win here to have a decent chance at the championship. Judging by qualifying, Dovizioso looks to be the man to beat tomorrow, but there's always the possibility of Pedrosa stepping up because the track temp is so hot, we'll see I guess. Márquez made this mistake in S2 during his final lap, but his ideal lap time would've been good enough for P4 on the grid, only narrowly adrift of the others and he looked strong on race pace both on Friday's wet and dry sessions (I didn't watch FP4 tho). Ultimately we'll see what happens but if it's a situation where Dovizioso is a second or two ahead of Pedrosa with Márquez being third, Honda may well decide to pull the plug on the championship and wave Márquez through, although I hope they don't. Yamaha tomorrow will be a bit of an unknown: with track temps being just as hot as in Barcelona, I reckon especially Zarco will blister his tyres badly tomorrow. Rossi may well be able to take care of them enough to mount a podium challenge, but generally speaking I fancy both Lorenzo and Márquez to leapfrog all Yamahas tomorrow  What are your predictions? |

With how the recent races have gone it's gonna be hard to predict but I can see Zarco struggling here. I'm hoping Rossi can get another good finish. As for Dovizioso and Márquez...we'll see soon enough. |

Great ride today by Dovizioso.
Having said that Max FOCKEN Verstappen what's your god damn problem??? you can't deliberately run off the track and come back on it to cause carnage enough to ruin Vettel and Hamilton's races you dumb teen freak.

The FIA haven't done anything wrong this season, for once! FIA = Ferrari International Assistance Virtual Safety Car with Vettel leading in Barcelona. Completely uncalled for, the stranded car was a long way off the race track. The 10-second gap closed down wrongfully offered Hammy bastard a free pass for the win on better tyres. No Safety Car when Verstappen was stranded with his tail on a straight in Canada, thus not enabling Vettel to close the pack. The ludicrous stop/go-penalty in Baku when maximum a drivethru was warranted. Starting the race in Singapore under normal procedure when no one ever had run a lap in the wet there prior to the race and the floodlights/spray severely limited the sight. Wouldn't have happened in a million years if FIA-darling Hammy was on pole. So all in all most definitely 40-50 points the FIA unfairly robbed Vettel of to help Mercedes sell more cars with a fraudulent title. Oh, and not to mention Mercedes being allowed to hold the veto on what type of engine upgrades that have been allowed since 2014. I'm not entirely convinced all parts of that engine are legal either. Sick to death of that corrupt shit "sport" and fucking hating everything associated with it. Letting Verstappen get away with what he did today just rubs it in. F1 = moronic drooling FIA = Fanatical Incompetent Assholes or Farcial Intentional Antics |

I didn't see anything wrong with Verstappen's conduct into turn 1/2/3 today. What did he do wrong besides passing and helping push Vettel out of the way? It just looked like hard racing to me. His radio messages were annoying though. But fuck Mercedes, Toto Wolff, Niki Lauda, FIA and their VSC bullshit, Hamilton for his self-worship, and everyone responsible for this shit engine formula. They call themselves the pinnacle of motorsport. Maybe that was true in the 60s-90s but not now, that's for sure. Just look at Hülkenberg's retirement due to ERS failure...  In the beginning of the season I was really rooting for Vettel, Räikkönen, and Ferrari but then Singapore happened and that sent them into a pit they're only now climbing out of, albeit too late. Vettel drove well enough in the first half of the season but he could have been smarter in the second half, most notably Singapore. That's all on him. He was focusing on Verstappen when he should have been watching Hamilton who was already almost alongside him on his right. Just not smart driving! As for Dovizioso...he rode/drove one hell of a race at Sepang and I'm glad Lorenzo didn't hand him the win. Zarco did surprisingly well too. That kid is gonna be a champion some day. |

His radio messages were annoying though. He deliberately let his car off the track to gain an advantage into T2 and came back in a clumsy manner that caused the impact behind him. Not the first time. He needs to sit out a race so he needs to behave but to instead be awarded 25 points is just going to make him even more kamikaze. The one argument for the Halo I can think of is Verstappen's starts and his antics there...  I mostly blame Red Bull for giving a top car to someone way too young to have the mental capacity to handle one. Unfortunately that has created a monster and he's completely unable to take criticism in. Having said that, Red Bull is the team that got caught with an illegal car in Monaco and Germany 2012 after qualifying and still allowed to start those races like nothing happens, unfairly robbing Alonso and Ferrari off that title. Bullshit team |

The MotoGP final will be intriguing. Unless it rains I really struggle to see how Dovizioso will be able to do his part. Valencia is essentially like an oversized go-kart track which doesn't really help Ducati against Honda and Yamaha, I'd expect Viñales, Márquez and Pedrosa fighting for the podium spots there in the dry, with Dovizioso having to fight for P4 with Lorenzo, Rossi and Zarco. He's surprised me before though! Still Márquez can finish top 11 half-asleep if he slow-rolls through a race provided Dovizioso is in the lead. So literally 93 % Márquez title now As for Zarco, he's 27, so not really a kid. I could see him challenge for regular wins on a factory Yamaha but I'd feel I need to see more from him to call him a future champion. He's prone to getting swamped way down on occasion and mid-season Folger had the measure on him. Also, once he gets the 2017 Yamaha with the more narrow operating window I feel he may struggle even more. Having said that, as long as Márquez is being Márquez, it's hard to say who's the champ this or that, because he really seems adamant to win it every single year Do you believe he'll have broken Rossi's and Agostini's seven in five years time Candle? I tend to believe he'll have done it  |

I tend to believe he'll have done it I think Marquez will at least equal those records. But yeah he will win the championship this year barring any insanely bad luck. On a semi-related note, let's just hope Hamilton doesn't equal or better Schumacher's 7 championships (not that Schumacher had to fight that hard for all 7 of them...see 2002 and 2004 ) but 1994 and 1995 were good fights with Damon Hill (despite Benetton's questionable cars).  |

If he does I mean I can't take Formula One seriously any longer. Hamilton is the guy who has either been tied for points or beaten by his team mate over a full season three times by three separate (!) drivers. In 2007 first of all, and then he was lucky he wasn't penalised for causing the Webber/Vettel collision in Japan. 2011 - solidly beaten by Jenson Button. Fair and square. 2016 - was unable to prevent Nico Rosberg winning the title in the same car as him. Granted, Vettel was beaten handily in 2014 by Ricciardo but when it's a one-off you could argue it was nothing but a blip. Having said that, the Swedish media has started a complete wankfest over Hammy now saying he's "one of the greatest ever". Fuck no, he's hardly Stewart/Lauda level who happened to have a greater car for longer. He's not even the greatest British driver ever, I mean just look at the percentages of Jim Clark's career that he had when his car held together. Ultimately he got killed by his own car too when he most likely would've been a five-time champion or so if not. Senna got beaten by Prost in 1989 some may say and scored fewer points than Prost in 1988 and what about MS getting ran over in his 40's by Rosberg? Irrelevant. Prost is a driver I hold even higher than Senna history-wise and was desperately unlucky not to win the 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1988 and 1990 crowns, the first three reliability took from him and the latter of which his team mate and Senna robbed off him while in 1988 he scored the most points. He could've been the Agostini of Formula One dammit. Same with Schumacher who had genuine shots at 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2006 had things gone narrowly different. Neither Hammy nor Vettel have had that many seasons like that. To me neither of them belong in my "Gang of Five" (Schumacher, Fangio, Prost, Senna, Clark). It takes an all-conquering driver who smashes his team mates to get there. If Alonso hadn't been unfairly penalised at Silverstone in 2010 when Kubica pushed him off the road and Grosjean hadn't TILTED at Spa in 2012 along with the ludicrous decisions to de-facto not penalise Red Bull's illegal car, Alonso would've been in that big six. Also don't forget how close he came in 2007 when he didn't even drive that well. Vettel and Hamilton are too fragile. Does anyone seriously think Senna would ever have blown a Monaco qualifying like Hammy did this year?  |

Does anyone seriously think Senna would ever have blown a Monaco qualifying like Hammy did this year? It pissed me off when the media said Hamilton is the most successful British F1 driver of all time. Yes, he's won the most championships but that obviously doesn't equate to "most successful". I agree with you about Senna and Prost. For Prost to come back and win the championship in 1993 with such dominance after not racing in 1992 and a horribly shitty 1991 season really shows how talented he was. I know, I know...the 1993 Williams chassis was by far the best but still. Likewise, for Senna to do as well as he did in 1993 with a relatively shitty car is a good example of his talents. But to me, Prost in 1993 was still more impressive. 1993's points distribution is interesting though in that the top four (Prost, Senna, Hill, Schumacher) were so far ahead of everyone else and after that it was fairly evenly distributed. Ok, that's enough F1 nostalgia for now.  |
