Keke was all for it! In fact he was so excited for the young couple that he suggested they get married right then and there, in Monaco, and later have a church ceremony for the families once they got back home. So that's what they did. Unfortunately Mika's marriage ended in divorce in 2008.

Baron Corbyn posted:Real talk: "Nico Rosberg will never be Hamilton's equal" is not a controversial statement nor is it bitterness talking. Our Lewis is going to go down in history as one of all time greats, Nico is going to go down in history as the answer to the trivia question "Which driver competed in the most F1 races before winning his first (and only) world championship?" It was a powerful reminder of Hamilton's class as he managed the gap in S1 to ensure Nico didn't get a DRS tow and then still produce lap after lap as much as 9 seconds down on his pole lap time without getting threatened with an overtake. There is no questioning that he truly is a cut above, nobody can really disagree with that. But does the BBC's whole F1 page need to be a safe space for grieving Lewis fans?

For a tilkedrome with long straights there really wasn't that much passing, Lewis was doing exactly what he needed which most driver's could have pulled off in a dominant car. It's kind of sad that the merecedes are so far ahead everyone they can putter along and turn it on whenever they need to.

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Does Monaco have weird marriage laws or something? I don't get it Under Monaco law the marriage does not combine personal assets, only things "bought together". In Finland the default is 50/50 split in divorce of all assets, and even the prenups can be successfully contested if the distribution of wealth would be very unfair to the other party. So basically Keke ensured that Erja Häkkinen got jack poo poo when she divorced Mika (ok I read somewhere that Mika gave in into relatively small lump sum of money instead of 50c out of every euro he had ever made). That's good managering by Keke

Just to drive home how close this championship was... 2016: Nico: 385 - 9 wins - 1 retirement Lewis: 380 - 10 wins - 2 retirements 2015: Lewis: 381 - 10 wins - 1 retirement Nico: 322 - 6 wins - 2 retirements 2014: Lewis: 384 - 11 wins (Also double points for last race. Remember that stupid poo poo?) - 3 retirements Nico: 317 - 5 wins - essentially 3 retirements due to his car packing in on the final race but he was determined to finish anyway. Both drivers did a loving fantastic job this year, in my opinion. I'm confident that Nico will be on this same level next year and we'll see a fantastic championship fight, especially for the RB and Ferrari cars are up to snuff too.

El Hefe posted:His name now is Nico Bossberg btw refer to him as such Ross the Boss! Pirate Radar posted:No sorry let me try this from the other perspective: beep boop I am Lewis Hamilton, a machine that only exists to secure WDC points, and min-maxing my racing points is the only thing I am capable of. I intentionally backed my teammate into the field and pretended nothing unusual was happening because numbers govern my entire existence. Beep-boop min-maxing is just the world we live in now, thanks to that Brad Pitt baseball movie. Basically in anything where you compete against an opponent, someone has figured out the mathematical advantage and will use that tactic. It's legit and a viable strategy, even though it isn't more fun or entertaining. Lewis backing up Nico was his only real chance to fluke into the WDC so he gave it a try. I'd be among the last to defend Lewis for anything, but in this case I don't see a problem with how he handled the race. Nico is a fairly boring champion, but he won it fair and square, and I'm glad Lewis didn't bring home another one because I dislike him on a personal level (although I can also admit he's very good at driving the race cars). F1 2016: Well done, Baku.

Nobody did anything wrong . Nico drove a solid "oh gently caress not Verstappen please Gott Not verstappen" race, Lewis tried his one wild card shot at winning the race, and Mercades tried to protect the 1 2 because they had promised the big bosses that they would win the WCC with more points than last year. The only losers here are the poo poo midfield teams, who used the ludicrous voting system to utterly gimp engine development which meant that the 3 out of 4 works teams/suppliers who made some wrong decisions in the first few months got hosed over for the next three years.

He's going to come out of the gates swinging next year. Pretty much all drivers improve after the first WDC since all the pressure us off and Rosberg drove the last quarter of the season extremely conservatively largely because he didn't have a WDC and didn't want to take any risks. If Lewis genuinely thinks that it was bad luck this year and he's going to lay back during the off season then he's pretty hosed for next year.
