F1 2026

Another one of those races that you can't but wonder if an extra lap would've made a difference. The race was a bit of a snooze fest though. Hadjar and Lindblad are the future for sure.

I think George slowed excessively for Bottas' stricken car and that allowed Max to close right in. Had it been one more lap, Max may well have got him into turn one.

Colapinto is a decent driver and better than a lot of other drivers on the grid.

He's fine talent-wise. Don't judge him for one moment. It was a pretty damn terrible moment though

He's going to have kickass sportscar career after F1 when he does eventually move on. He's already raced in ELMS, LeMans 24 hours and Asian LeMans as a youngster.

It wasn't the first time he did something stupid though. In terms of rookies I think Bearman, Hadjar and Kimi are the only stand outs. Maybe Lindblad as well.

This idiot should be booted together with Franco and Strollovich.

That is why Bernie Ecclestone shunned the Internet and social media for so may years. Then American's bought the sports and embraced social media as a profit centre, rather than seeing its potential as a PR risk.

Ecclestone is 95 years old. That's why social media doesn't appeal to him.

The guy was 15 at the end of WWII!

I wasn't saying you could, I was merely pointing out that FoM have created the very situation that the teams and drivers are now complaining about. They can't have their Cake and eat it.

What a **** show from Aston ... seems like the writing is on the wall for Alonso to leave F1 - this must be very painful for him.

It always looks to me that the PR ladies would much rather be painting their nails or something else rather than being at these pressers...
The look of disinterest and boredom on some of their faces is unreal.

Race week!

Weekend weather check for Sepang shows very unsettled conditions. We could be in for a topsy turvy race

By the 5th interview asking the same questions I'd be just as bored.

Love the morning races! Think a bacon, egg and mushroom fry up on Sunday morning is in order. MotoGP at 7am and then F1 at 9am.
