Yes, good luck with that. :thumbsup:

To be honest my biggest concern for you is the 1st corner!
Hoping Daniel starting P6 means all the carnage is in front of him and he manages to dodge it all!
Be great to see him finish again, he’s had some sh***y luck recently. Saw you on the box again today looking all professional. Still blows my mind :lol:

a strange thread indeed.

considering he is a multi millionare and could buy pretty much anything he wanted.. i think a bit of jewellery for a giggle is pretty restrained, just noticed how old this thread is and wanders totally disinterested.

Ye the whole team done good, exceptional from Verstappen :thumbsup: Much as I really like Ricardo, he is slowly falling behind the younger gun. :wink:

Time for a thread revival.

Beaten fair and square again by him with the unfortunate name. Game on gentlemen. :thumbsup:

Great result. Where are Ferrari though? I thought season might be the one where things evened up a bit, but no.

And nice one Danny Ric for reversing into Kvyat. :D

The Ricardo thing was just plain :lol: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :cry: How much does he get paid to dive a car. :roll:

Ferrari are clearly trying to mix it up a bit with strategy. The qualy crash made sure of that. They just don't have the right lead driver, or more importantly, a fast enough car. :wink:

I wouldn't say it was fair and square, considering mercedes messed up the last part of q3 :thumbsdown: Valtteri did his best to make sure Lewis was backed up behind him.

But there's only 1 point in it and it appears Ferrari have gone back to being absolutely terrible, so all is well :thumbsup:

Looked stupid from the cameras, but I'd imagine he couldn't see the toro rossi in his mirrors. Brundle always mentions how useless the mirrors on f1 cars are, so perhaps that proves it?

I assume he thought it was completely clear behind him, hence reversing (or trying to) onto the circuit, rather than spinning round like Grosjean did.

Either way, it was very embarrassing for Riccardo. Silly boy.
