He was imprinted by his Father so no hope really.

Cracking race weekend as everyone has already said. The two stand-out bits of bloody poor behaviour for me were:
1. Max's finishing position...he clearly is not willing to repay any assistance that Checco have given him in the last couple of years and it reminds me of the "Multi 21" fiasco between Mark Webber and Seb Vettel in the same team in, what 2012 -ish.
2. Lance's move on Seb to prevent an overtake and after causing a crash last time out that could have killed Alonso he really should be banned for a few races whilst he sorts out his attitude on track.

Overall stunning weekend for George and MB and a well deserved Driver of the Day for LH along with his honorary Brazilian Citizenship!


Cheers, Paul

Lance can drive, but not well.

I must agree about Max and his attitude but of course we still don't really know the truth but never the less it would have cost him nothing and shown what a team player he can be. That is all very well, but what about Ferrari, although I still support them through thick and thin they are really not doing a good job. With all the resources at therir disposal I can not understand what has gone wrong. We are now in the crazy position where the best car in the field at the start of the season is now going backwards and the worst car is going forwards, I speak of MB of course and didn't George do well, so pleased he was able to beat the Gangsta. Perhaps the final race will produce something a bit special but not as special as last year please.

I agree that Ferrari have had the car this year and really should have secured both Championships and if not then they could have put up a much stiffer level of competition to RB and Max. Several poor strategy calls and a few "Resit mist" mistakes from Charles and they've completely lost their momentum. Let's hope that we can get a proper 3 team, 6 driver fight next year that keeps us all guessing right down to the wire. 2023 could be a year to remember in F1 history! drive flag happy3

All change at Ferrari then, Danny Ric back with red bull hope he brings some niceness back to the team. Checo will now be sleeping with one eye open for the next year or so........

I am waiting to see who becomes Ferrari's manager.

I am really sad that Matteo has resigned. He worked there for 20+ years, in his short time as manager they went from distinctly mid field to second place in the championship. Having said that last year had some shocking decisions. Any bets on Ross Brawn being given a cash incentive he cannot turn down? A GTO per race won?

I think Checo or LeClerc did a pretty good job this year, Daniel will need to rebuild his position after a rough couple of years.

Looking forward to next year more than ever.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Ross Brawn would have been the man to do the job for them again except he is getting out of the game now.

It'll be a lot closer racing season next year I think with some very good jockeys of all ages out there, looking forward to some more fireworks and tantrums from RB management..

What about the rumour that Seb may be in the offing for team principal. Can't see it personally but maybe it might just work as he has a lot of actual race experience and may bring a different way of thinking, ----like joined up for instance!!! Forza Ferrari!!
