    Courtney dropped out after loop 2. That's the second DNF for her there. Just puts the difficulty of the race into perspective.

    From 20th with ZERO points after three games to here, I'll take that. While Champions league isn't guaranteed, its in our hands as we play all three the other teams. Beat Utd, West Ham and Spurs then its ours by our own making and we don't have to rely on others to loose.

    Just like many companies did after the initial Covid lockdown. Get rid of the deadwood.

    MB with their many unnecessary engine changes, while still within the FIA rules is the same as mechanical doping, and this is the real cheating that happened during the season. No other team did this to the EXTREME that MB did. If Lulu was as good as he and his fanbase thinks he is, it wouldn't have been necessary and he would have won long before the finale as they had the superior car. Likewise it wouldn't have been necessary for MB to get the FIA to change the pitstop criteria & change the rear wing specifications during the season just because their opposition was better than them at doing their job! I was a Lulu fan all through his McLaren and then early MB days. His off track media attention seeking started to get to me after awhile but then when he came out with his BLM and poor me I've been hard done by BS was the final straw. Plus the guy is a total hypocrite, he complained about Vettle (way before MV was around) but then does the same, with him and Toto its always a Pot & Kettle situation. I liked MV when he came onto the scene as well as Lando and Charles. Yes MV is aggressive and that reminds me of Schumie and Senna. I don't care about the Vegan , LBTQ , or whatever other media whoring BS that goes on, I watch F1 for the racing and Max is a racer!

    I love how all the Lulu fanbase are up in arms even though the FIA was on their side for the majority the season.

    The most deserved driver of the season won. For those that don't believe that MB had the better car think of this, If MB didn't play around with Bottas' engine every time Max was penalized, MB would have sealed the constructors title in the America's.

    Unfortunately the Honda engine is a constant reliable power source and doesn't offer peak power spikes like the Merc does. That's according to Max.

    Unfortunately FIA has stated it will DEDUCT points from Max if he does that.

    Can bet you that if 33 had this many changes, the FIA would have made a rule that unless the motor blows up engine changes would be illegal.

    ScottCM replied to IceCreamMan's topic in Chit chat

    We are absolutely rubbish. The 10 game run as i feared only papered over the cracks. I was quietly optimistic after the Leicester game as i didn't believe that we were truly Top 4 material and as soon as it was time to prove it and make it ours we failed against Utd and now this game has shown us up once more. We are going to get HAMMERED this wkn. Our strikers can't buy a goal, 7 games without any striker scoring 🤬 Watch, it won't get better under Arteta. I'm sticking by my belief that Arteta should have cut his teeth at a lower team. Get relegated, get promoted and then maybe after a few seasons attempt a top 6 team. There are more real world lessons to learn from relegation and promotion than will ever be learnt from being an understudy to Pep. Arteta himself admitted he is under qualified when he said he wants Wenger to come in as a consultant. I see us battling for 10th place this year.

    My best mate ( at my wedding and in life) who is also a Gooner and I were discussing the game earlier. He feels that Utd will win tonight and is willing to accept it. I on the other hand said to him that if we want to be in Europe next season we need to win our next two games as United and West Ham are our direct rivals for 4th and if you wish to end 4th you have to beat those rivals. Also with us set to loose Lacazett and Nkeita in Jan we need a striker as Auba has become the Ozil 2.0 since his payday 18months ago. So in order to attract a top class striker in Jan we need to look like we will be in Europe next season by being 4th on the log come the window. As you have stated previously (which i totally agree with), our 10 game run was mostly against muppets and when we came against the big boys we lost badly again. This too makes the next 4 days extremely important for us.

    Hey bud, I live in Alberton and run for Lewensentrum (named after an afrikaan church in the area but most don't attend this specific church). WE have daily runs during the week and then back to back long runs on wkns. Fridays is coffee run and if its someone's birthday then they supply cupcakes. At races we go in convoy and take coolerboxes with beers for "recovery" while waiting for the rest to finish. We have all sorts of runner from our lady who won the Sani Stagger 38km Trail on the week to the grandfather who has failed to qualify for comrades the last 3 time he has tried. Our chairman was the comrades 10hour & 11hour bus driver for over a decade too. Easter time we have an Easter 100 which the Alberton Athletics club runners join. drop me a PM if this is of interest to you.

    This weekend thought me , that after 3 decades of watching I know absolutely nothing about F1. Guess i should stick to my day job and just enjoy the show instead of trying to figure out the inner workings of the crazy world of F1

    The FIA have denied Mercedes' request for a Right of Review into the defensive manoeuvre Max Verstappen used to retain the lead from Lewis Hamilton on Lap 48 of last week's Sao Paulo Grand Prix. https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.breaking-stewards-deny-mercedes-request-for-right-of-review-over-verstappen.3bLfoAlwBa91L44vIP9dIl.html

    Problem is that LH44 went purple in sector 2 before backing off. Think Merc have more pace than they showed in FP1. Hope I am completely wrong though.
