I'm waiting to see if this corrupt FIA will give Hamilton a race ban for walking over the live track, endangering all drivers lives.
 
Im late to the party, but DOTD is Max for me. Complete dominance in terms of consistency and focus.

You have to wonder what could've possibly been had Norris been allowed to challenge/pass Piastri though.

Perez has checked out from this season. lapped by his team mate, multiple driver penalties, schooled by a Stroll piloted Aston and an Alpine.

So amped for McLaren 2024 though!

I was hoping the Maccas go onto soft's for their last stint, but in the end it would have been touch & go, but we will never know...
 
Is Mclaren really this much better? They had the slowest car with the most grip most of the year. This race the grip was an issue again, so they performed well.
Will it last? We will see.

I think the RB's race pace is still quite a bit better, but the Mclaren's are the team who is looking like they might have an idea on what is needed to match that. On one lap pace they are even out performing the RB's in qualifying. So it is really looking positive for them.

I agree, but still we will have to see if its only on dusty tracks where grip is a problem. And I am referring to them against Merc and Ferrari, not RB.

I think they have the most exciting driver team on the grid for 2024, unless RB gives Checo the boot and brings in someone good.

Doesn't matter who RB brings in, they're not going to keep up with Max like they're expected to do. Which is going to add pressure and make them underperform.

We saw it with Checo when he did well in the first third of the season, then Marko opens his trap and now he's all over the place.

That seat is cursed, I think even they realise it. It's not even about who they want anymore, it's about who wants it...
 
Sargeant - Pull out of race due to heatstroke
Stroll - Lost consciousness on track. After race straight into ambulance
Ocon - Vomiting in helmet
Albon - Needed assistance getting out of car. Not seen after the race or interviewed. Assumed straight to medical centre with heatstroke.
Alonso - Requesting water poured into car during pit stop.

Half of the other drivers lying on the floor after the race. Likely all in for a rough night with heatstroke.

Whoever decided Doha this time of the year should be in trouble. They are lucky no one crashed. I guess FIA got a lekker paycheck though so all good.
 
There were also reports of drivers passing out after the race. Qatar will be on the calendar until 2032 but the race will be in November next year when its cooler.

But as long as the FIA is happy and leave with a fat wallet, all is good. Cash is king...
