F1 2021

IMO it has been the best year of racing I have ever seen in 34 years of watching F1

Woah woah woah.. Let's not get carried away..

What a dramatic shift in the both WDC and WCC we have seen over the last 2 races. When Verstappen lined up on pole at the British Grand Prix with a 33 point lead it was almost unimaginable that he would be going into the summer break having lost the championship lead.

Long way to go, and lots of work to do for all the teams. It's all to play for, and the Winner of this epic battle will be whoever does the better job over the 2nd half of the season.

I'm deadly serious.. I've never seen a battle as closely fought between the main title protagonists. They've gone wheel to wheel at almost every race, which is acutally quite unusual for F1.. for example over 2017-2018 when Ferrari got close,there were not that many occasion where Lewis and Seb were actually racing closely for position

Certainly one of the most dramatic, up there with Germany 2019, although from a purist point of view I do tend to prefer a straight fight with converging strategies rather than chaotic races that have a mixed up running order

I appreciate the straight fight aspect and of course that's important with best challenging each other, but I do feel a sprinkling of chaos and uncertainty is good.

It's nice to Perez and Ocon win races and Leclerc get two poles because I do believe it's important that more than a mere few have a belief they could win.

Yes, the best teams need to be concentrating on doing their utmost to dominate although the added factor of having to survive can keep them (more) humble.

Personally, I want to see the ups and down between Lewis and Max interspersed with having to deal with the madness we're seeing more often.

Lewis in medical checks at hospital - fatigued. He really looked it at the podium, makes the booing even more tasteless.

Very easy to forget that Giovinazzi is an F1 driver, not sure I've ever known a driver receive so little attention from both the media and fans.

Ocon potentially in trouble for talking to his team during the formation lap

I hope he isn't punished.

Genuinely wouldn’t be arsed. He got to spray the champagne on the podium and this piece of utter nonsense won’t take that result away from him.

What’s the normal penalty for this type of stuff?

Horror crash at the 24h of Spa earlier today. The engine actually comes out of one of the cars and barrel roles into the barrier

Not sure tbh, would be bad PR for the sport so i reckon they will let it slide

Vettel can't produce the 1 litre fuel sample either if rumours are to be believed. ?

 

[BNJ1878]

how the hell does Fernando bag DoD when his team mate just had his maiden race win?
honestly, F1 fans can be thick as pigs sometimes

Verstappen fans voting for him for holding up Hamilton lol

 

[john jako]

just watched that first corner again. Had stroll not got a penalty for the next race? He genuinely just went mental and played dodgems.

 

[Kantareller]

Vettel to be disqualified? He can only return 0.3 litres of fuel when they need to leave 1.0 litre for test

Again, I hope not. I like Lewis but Ocon and Vettel deserve their day.
