Talk Morgan Forums Community Vehicle Talk (non-Morgan) F1, 2022

Well, you know where I would be Alistair if I had the readies. Perhaps I could just put in a cheeky offer for the engine cover. As much as I like the Enzo, none of the "modern" Ferraris will ever match up to the 250SWB of a 275 GTB4 in the sheer looks department. A bit like no Morgan will ever look better IMHO than the Aero Super Sport in Purple with the silver targa roof panels.

I think I would prefer the P4 or Dino.

In the context of when this was designed, a time of no frills functionality, this shape takes some beating.

Can't disagree with you there Dave. As an aside, there is a very interesting article in the current Magneto about the re birth of Bizzarrini and it was Giotto that masterminded the 250 SWB and the 250 GTO amongst others.

Monaco is Monaco but I think a new Dawn has arrived in F1, Le Clerk deserves a win on home turf great to see the youngsters mixing it up. And to the doubters and there were quite a few George is the real deal.....

Well Ferrari were at it again, and not for the first time!! Sign a great driver, build him a fantastic car then screw it all up by faffing about. I think Charles showed great composure on the tele but I can't help but think some Italian ears were bent off screen. It is really hard being a Ferrari fan but I supose I should be used to it by now. On a more positive note, isn't George proving he is worth his place. Great to see him doing so well and beating "The Gangsta" at every chance.

As you say Reg, great to see young George going so well. I just hope we don't get any inter teammate shenanigans as the season progresses.

I suspect next years negotiations at AMG are going to be quite different now. I thought George would be good but he has also been consistently quick, smart and PR gold as well. Excellent. No tie & dye outfits or metal bits hanging out of him. Looking forward to seeing how that goes. Anyone want a bet that Hamilton aims to get into a Ferrari seat?

It was painful to hear Leclerc on the radio and a very good interview afterwords there's a very old head on those young shoulders. Ferrari need to up their game if they want to keep him.....
