Tears all round for the Austrian Anthem.
A fitting tribute to the team owner.

With was going on with Clucky, it was as if he just suddenly gave up.

Is that the best race of the season? We've have some good ones but I think in terms of pure racing, overtakes, accidents...could be the best one so far.
Yeah it was a fun watch. I think FIA should introduce a random misfiring wheel gun every week. It livened things up quite a bit.

Fully agree, the only worrying thing is, can you imagine what max can do if he had the most dominant car, scary thoughts.
I don't know which race you were watching but that rb is fck off dominant, checo was challenging other cars and overtaking even with front wing damage. There's been races where that car pulled a half a minute gap over the next car in very little time.

The car or the driver? Sure it is a fast car, but either Checo is very average, or Max is doing something pretty special

His tyres apparently gave up. I find that odd though, he pitted at the same time as Max.

Perhaps ran out of talent?

I was thinking the same thing, he just can't keep up. And I was still half rooting for him to get to the front in this race but he's just not good enough.

Hamilton was fighting for a win with a bloody tractor.

No disrespect, but you just saying that because your boy came second, highest finish this season.

Combination of Max being excellent and that car being insanely fast. Far and away the best car on track, I doubt anyone would honestly dispute that.

Good race to showcase F1, Alonso and Vettel just keep on going :) Pity Merc still isn’t near RB’s pace but there was at least some laps led and some great strategy. RB get their deserved constructors - pity it’s under a cloud / asterisk.

He is good, but no denying that that rb is fast, much faster than any of the other cars. Probably made possible by the fact that they spent more on it, hopefully we'll soon find out.

I'd put the Ferrari up there with it. Just look at how many poles they have had compared to the RB

The Ferrari is definitely number 2, with a decent margin over the rest. I don't think it's quite as quick as the RB over a race though. It just has such immense straight-line speed, it's insane.

Pity they have the 3rd worst drivers line up in F1.
