F1 2019 season discussion and chat.

LeClerc asking “where is Lewis?” Talk about optimism

 

[UrBaN963]

He is a chump, but not as schit as Kubica

I said disappointing, not schit. We don’t expect anything from Kubica, but Vettel is a 4 time champ. He can’t qualify, he can’t race... dude should take up golf.

Fair enough

Poor Bottas, stops for soft tyres and Hamilton still takes fastest lap on his old hard tyres

Exciting race but another boring result.

What’s boring about the result?

 

[PoppieChoffel]

Great race, I enjoyed it. Happy my boys finished in points at least.

I presume you mean to say disappointing result? the result can’t be boring after such a good race, the result is what it is.

best race of the season so far in my opinion.

Fastest lap on hard tyres? Mercedes is so far ahead of everyone else.

Another Merc 1-2 (bizarre that I have to spell it out. Thought it was obvious).

Mercedes one two is kinda boring these days

Muppets.

Brilliant race and well deserved podiums for the drivers involved. They just happen to be Mercedes drivers.

The rest of his statement stands, though. You may not like the result, we're reliving the Ferrari dominant era, but that was great racing. And LeClerc being on podium isn't boring.

Best move of the race, that outrageous retake of Hamilton by Bottas.

 

[UrBaN963]

Qualifies second, starts well, gets lucky with safety car, sets fastest lap on old, hard tires on the final lap, breaks record and becomes first person to win British GP 6 times.

“Boring”.

The fight for 3rd was very exciting. Red bull and Ferrari squabbles are awesome.

 

[Fox1]

Merc did a solid job with not pitting Bottas during the safety car. Bottas is wasting his time at #TeamLH like Vettel is wasting Ferrari's time.

I didn't say it wasn't great racing (and I alluded to as such in my comment when I said 'exciting racing'). I also found the Ferrari dominance boring as I did for the Red Bull dominance. This is the same, just with a different livery.

As a neutral, I don't want to see the championship done with 5 rounds still remaining. So I'll say it again. Great race, but ultimately (from a neutral perspective), a boring result.

It wasn't boring, Vettel finished exactly where is deserved and (discounting the two Mercs) Leclerc and Verstappen finished in the correct order too.
I think that most of us are actually watching the mid field and ignoring the Mercs.

Got you. I'd prefer more competition to Merc, alas, it is what it is. Hopefully refueling is approved and we can get back to pit fights and potential race breaking issues
