Funnily enough ours worked, but I expect it to start pixelating on Sunday evening. So much so it'll look like it's 240p on a 50Mbps fibre line on a TV that can do 1080p (yeah, it's old).
It's absolute trash, I'm running direct cable 100Mbps Fibre.

You know your driver is too good when the haters have to go after his fashion because they can't say **** about his 7 WDCs and an awesome battle this season :)

I'm excited for this weekend. Max and Lewis both deserve to win in my opinion, so I'm hoping one of them clenches it definitively, no on-track shenanigans, just pure racing.
Plot twist.
Ham/Ver both DNF.
Stewbois rule both equally at fault,equal points deducted.
Ham 8th, Ver 1st
Everyone confused because they acted like they wanted their guy to win.
They actually wanted the other guy to lose.

At least DSTV will launch their streaming service next year. Wait...that was supposed to be in 2021. Or was it last year? But doesn't DSTV Live classify as a streaming service?
Those guys are so confused!

It's rather simple really
If you have a slower car than your opponent you need to be aggressive. This was exactly the case in the year this quote is from (2011 iirc). Otherwise all that happens is your opponent steamrolls you with raw pace from their car.

I said it before, I'll say it again - HAM and VER are more alike than what most are willing to admit
Well i suppose those moaning at Max driving style are all young, who probably and thankfully never watch Michael race, or else they would have probably had a bigger hissy fit

I'm actually watching the Schumacher movie now. The guy hated losing
Watch Max, and watch Michael when he was young. Aggressive, on the edge, hated losing, and had many fights with plenty of drivers lol... Good ol days.

I understand supporting your own, but damn.

SkySports used a slow-mo of Verstappen's crash at Silverstone as an advert and ran the tag ''Merry Christmas''. They have since pulled it.

British media is hyper-toxic at the minute. I genuinely believe they want something fvcked up to happen this weekend. The commentary is going to be unbearable.

The person/people at Sky who thought doing that was a good idea is a moron.

You're just saying that because you are naturalising as a Dutchy

Nah, think about it outside of F1 (SkySports, Damon Hill etc). How about their media towards the Springboks, SA COVID variants etc. In fact there are articles about them they wrote themselves claiming they are a toxic country.

Probably more their press/media culture but really - what a shitty island.

And don't drag Russell and Norris into this. They can stay.
