Reg, apologies I hadn’t thought about it from the Ferrari perspective it’s just that I think Leclerc is the complete package at the moment with a very cool head on him hopefully they can furnish him with a good car this year and we can enjoy the competition again. George will appear again he proved he has the talent and also deserves a good steed as does Perez, looking forward to some proper racing on some of the traditional circuits again.

I noticed LH wasn't as enthused about Russell's drive in his car as the rest of the world.
I guess it's made it harder for him now that Mercedes know someone else can also potentially win in the same car. One race does not a season make. LH is so good because he has exceptional race craft. His management of the car is second to none and the fact he also has great speed is almost an added bonus.

I agree with you Barry, he always manages to drag something out of the car even when he was supposedly not entirely happy with it. However, George has shown great potential first time out in the same car and being under Mercedes management it must add a delicious twist to the negotiations. I would be disappointed if Lewis does step back this year, but if any one has the ability to retain the race focus to come back again at the same level, he may just the one.

Rich, now you know how depressed I would be if Ferrari's only hope went to MB. I would love to see the rapper go away for a well earned rest doing DJ work in Ibiza and let George have a full season to show what he can do against all the other young guns.
Me too

I don't agree about Leclerc. He made a few mistakes last season, late overtake lunges etc. It may be that he was trying to make up for the Ferrari's lack of pace but I think he is still a bit impetuous. I do agree that with a good car he would be up there in the mix but I think Russell would give him a run for his money. I would love to see Charles and Max go head to head, I think Max would come out on top.

I still think Leclerc would show him the way I have a lot of faith in him to come good whereas I think Max has stalled in his development as a driver, time and history will show us.

They wont have very far to walk to work its just been announced that the Monaco Grand Prix will go ahead. Without being a bit of a stick in the mud how come the WRC and F1 teams most of which are based in the Uk can ship their cars and people all over the world for testing and races when we cant drive a couple of miles out of the way to take the dog for a walk, Just saying,,,,,,Em

I couldn't agree more, I feel sorry for the 37,000 Australians being stopped from returning to their homeland whilst watching an entourage of 1,200 International Tennis Players waltz into the country for a competition.
Money talks is the only conclusion I can reach.

Money talks is the only conclusion I can reach. Unfortunately, I fear you are totally correct but then it has always been so. We will get our own back when we have had the vaccine------hopefully
