I do enjoy Webber’s straight talking and he really gels with DC

Been out on a tractor all day. Had to tune to Radio 5 - poorly researched , childish and idiotic as usual. Switched off before the end of Q2 Honestly is this the best BBC can do? Switched back on later to hear Gow and her cronies speculating that Leclerc crashed on purpose !!!! What???

And now Kravitz is stoking the deliberate crash theory!

I had a feeling that conspiracy would come out of the woodwork....

In fairness, the moment it happened at least a half dozen bad jokes comparing and connecting this to the Schumi/Ferrari incident crossed my mind.
It was the inevitable connection and one which i suspect everyone made in that moment. Havent seen anything yet, but did the press also press young Mick to also comment on it? |

I was instantly reminded of Schumacher in 06 when Leclerc crashed, however I'm not suggesting he did do it. I think everyone is just having a bit of a laugh.

I think we all briefly had the thought. I don't believe it for a moment, but if it was done deliberately, it was done with a great deal more style than Schuey's disgraceful effort....

Does anyone else think it is time they adopted the Indycar rule that if you red flag a qualifying session your two fastest times in that session are deleted, or better yet just delete all the driver's times from that session?
All doubt as to the motive and unfair advantage removed. |

Pathetic by Sky today. Major breaking news with Leclerc’s gearbox, pictures of him getting out the car with Ted frantically wanting to comment, but oh no. The Hamilton feature has to be shown.

Not as bad as the director missing potentially the only interesting thing to happen all afternoon on track (Vettel coming out of the pits right in front of Gasly and Hamilton) in order to show a replay of Stroll bouncing over a kerb. And then (on channel 4 anyway) they cut away from the onboard replay of the same incident to show someone in the pit. So frustrating.

One decent piece of action on track and the race director moves to a replay...........

The one race of the year where FOM aren't in full control. Blame the TV Director from TMC

Yeah, it was back to the bad old days of local directors at each race - it was a lacklustre race & you can't polish a turd but the director could have done much, much better - missed a number of key items through the course of the race. |

Worst bit of TV directing since the 2014 Canadian GP, when they showed a shot of the cheering just as Lewis was losing his lead to Nico

As much as I agree it is worth a season of his drivel just for the priceless moment when the self important Redbull PR funky made a total balls live on air during his Notebook

Not so much what was said, more what was not said as the PR lady refused to let Christian talk and dragged him away. (Ted had just started to ask about the potential Toto threats of protests over RBR's bendy bits)
