But we want racing.

Edit: never heard the 12s but have sat on the Start-Finish line at Silverstone when we had V10s at 18,000 rpm. Impossible to describe. We removed our ear protection to best experience it!

Fantastic sound wasn't it? I went to the Canadian Grand Prix every year since 1988 up until the new hybrid cars came out a couple years ago. I went to the first one with the new engines and haven't been back to a Grand Prix since. It is missing much of the excitement with the toned down engines. Kind of like hearing Jimi Hendrix playing acoustic guitar....good, but not nearly as exciting as electric.

Great result. Some confidence shaken at Mercedes. Give them something to figure out.

Still the first race of the season, teams have bugs to work out!!

Sub'd to keep up with it. I have a hard time catching anything since im a "cord cutter". I usually have to download it after the fact.

Close qualifying, Ferrari is looking good, a little disappointed in Red Bull, they can't seem to get their cars running right.

what a race!!

heading to Bahrain with a tie..!!!

on a side note... was that raikkonen's car has engine issue thus stuck behind ricciardo for so long or vettel is clearly a much faster driver....

raikkonen's contract is due at the end of this season....

Red Bull needs faster cars. They have the drivers for it especially who Hamilton calls "that guy". The kid is amazing.

I am a Hamilton fan but I love Sebastian, Max and Ricardo. I want to see them all in equal cars and then will have some real fun. Hell, Bottas an't no slouch!!!

Definitely shaping up to be a tight year.
Although, after the Hamilton-Rosberg pissing match for the last few years, does anyone else get kind of nauseated at the love-fest this year?
Kind of has the feeling that the new F1 owners are pushing for a "Kinder, gentler" F1.

God-Speed · 04-10-2017, 07:07 PM

Great race. It's going to be an interesting season!!!

JARblue · 04-11-2017, 07:57 AM

My wife and I are big Max fans as well. Hope the Hass team can make some better showings in the coming races. Not too impressed with Kevin thus far.

Hotrodz · 04-11-2017, 08:48 AM

I like Max because of his youthful zeal. He is the best of the young talent and will be the best of the best some day. I just hope he doesn't do stupid that will end his career or someone else's.

JARblue · 04-11-2017, 08:56 AM

Seriously, there is no fear in that kid. Some of the driving he does in the rain

It almost looks like he learned a bit from that Monaco crash last year ... at least I hope.
