Which one does he NOT hold the Track record for................

Excellent lap from him again.
Vettel may as well go home and hire a Fat lady to sing for him.

Gonna be an interesting start tomorrow. This circuit is do fast though: one wrong move and you're flying off it.

Let's hope it stays exciting after the first lap :)

It’s Kimi vs Hamilton at turn 1. I’m reluctant to suggest Kimi will not race hard now he’s leaving for another team but it’s possible. Didn’t realize kimis move was Arrivabene’s decision but there you go.

It was a 'corporate' decision, but Arrivabene is the kind of leader who takes on the responsibility. If you watch other interviews where they ask him who's at fault for the loss/bad strategy, he always says it's him.

Agree, I have loads of respect for Arrivebene and I hope they retain him. The guy is a good leader. I’ve never admired an F1 boss to a great extent but this guy is good.

Arrivebene is your typical Ferrari boss. Doesn't say much, doesn't give anything away. He's no Christian Horner, that's for sure. Ferrari has (and probably always will be) the least communicative of the teams and this leads to an impression of aloofness.

Agreed, Arrivabene seems to have disdain for the media, Horner and Wolfe are by the far the most media savvy (and friendly) of the principals.

Do you watch the Italian feeds? How is Horner in those? You realise this is just about who's point of view you're getting on the telly? For a guy who struggles with English, he does a brilliant job of being interviewed IMO.
