I asked in the Venezuela politics thread and they hadn't heard from him, however he had a bit of an argument in there and got a short ban, which was the last time he posted on SA, and they are hoping he's just taking a forum break.

So this morning it's a wet track test, Lewis bitched and moaned about not wanting to go out on a wet track. Now the track is drying out and the Mercedes has still not gone out. Lol.

Giovinazzi is cool and good and I was genuinely disappointed he didn't manage to beat Gasly to the GP2 title. :italy:

And by that you mean "winning the GT500 title in 2016" in the Denso SARD car, their first championship ever in Japanese GT.

You guys didn't hear? Nando is funding the team himself, got tired of McLaren and figured that would be a better title shot.

Can't post for 4 years!
Rob Smedley is pulling a serious "Lance baby stay cool", falling over himself to make sure Williams' new canadian sugar daddy stays happy despite destroying the only 2017 williams:

quote:

"He shouldn't feel he has let them down, otherwise we are living in some kind of terrible blame culture and we don't want that," Smedley said. "Everybody – I wouldn't even call it a mistake that Lance made. He was going for an upshift, he was on cold tires, Felipe once or twice on day one made almost exactly the same mistake – and that is a guy with 15 years experience.
"It is for us to understand how to rebalance the car, how to get the tire working, even in tricky situations on those cold laps to help the drivers in those situations. Nobody stands back and says that is your bit and you are to blame for it – absolutely not. There is no blame to apportion here at all, the main focus as usual is how did it happen, how do we stop it happening again and how do we contain the actions going forward."

You never upshift on cold tires, duh. Thats why the out-lap is always done in first gear, with the pit limiter on.

Bold Prediction: Williams finishes behind Force India AND Mclaren in the points this year.
