F1 - did that just happen?!

Unbelievable. Without a doubt a world champion of the future. Amazingly talented and just 18 years old. Crazy.

 

[MrPT]

Even given what happened on the first lap, it's unbelievable. Great for the sport - really considered switching off for good over the past few years, but that race was spectacular.

Actually quite relieved for Ricciardo, since at least he can explain away his performance with the strategy c*ckup and a puncture. :?

I don't usually watch F1 find it too boring. Normally watch GT and Touring Car......
Can someone explain why Rosberg moved over to the right approaching a right hander when every other car (Hamilton excluded) stayed left on the racing line.???? Sure looked to me like an intentional blocking manoeuvre.........

Properly gutted for Kvyat. Verstappen is clearly a more gifted driver, but what a way to find out.

Cheers. Just been reading it. Way too complicated far too many rules/ regs. That's why after 10mins I turned it off and cut grass instead. Much more exciting... oke:

Hamilton was cutting the grass too. Did you see that bit?

Jos Verstappen (Max`s father :wink: ) has been friends with Michael Schumacher since (or maybe before) there Benetton time.
Old interview with them together from 2002

Aha! Awesome. :rofl:

I always find the whole parent-living-life-vicariously-via-child thing a bit weird, even if that's just how it appears on the outside.

 

[gasman]

It was some years ago, and a lot of info I find about this is from the tabloids, but:
Didn' t Hamilton also had a very intense and possibly "weird" bond with his father early in his career ?
