And Gio being bad hurts. I just wanted a decent Italian on the grid.

Fairly certain literally every driver on the grid has lost the rear on a wet patch of track at some point before. Wouldn't write off Gio so quickly. Tough weekend for everyone.

He's actually "Might cost Mercedes the WCC" bad, which is pretty impressive.

He will definitely be the deciding factor if they don't retain the WCC and those dipshit fuckos at Mercedes can suck a gently caress for listening to precious Lewis and not accepting Nando driving for free.

Are we getting another race with him? If he drives one more he can't do Ferrari testing.

Okay? What's your point. The car being in the wrong mode is still an issue an impacts performance. Bitching about it got it fixed.

My point is that he is responsible for knowing the car well enough to make sure the settings are correct, the only person he had to blame there was himself. He ate a whole murder of crows in the post race interview as a result.

Yes, because McLaren is totally going to give up their best driver while he's still under contract. Totally, 100% Lewis's fault. Yup.

Possibly. Pascal said he's not certain he can do the next race.

So he should have just kept quiet in the wrong engine mode. Got it.

From what I saw of it, he was also trying to get clear air around his teammate who was rejoining after going halfway down the pit entrance.

You have to think that Wehrlein would've been back next week anyway. At this point I think it's up to Ferrari to decide if he's worth investing in.

Entertaining race, I think. Verstappen bitching bitching and moaning about Grosjean at the end made me laugh, does he expect him to just do the old Trulli move and pull over when he's well ahead? I think the Ferrari is still a great car, and other than not telling Kimi to get out of the way earlier (not sure he would've listened anyway) the strategy seemed ok. Still high hopes. Vettel could've taken it to Lewis if that Ricciardo-Kimi-Vettel train hadn't lasted so long.

Nah, but maybe he could pay a little more attention to things before and during the race instead of losing his poo poo at the engineers while holding up his teammate and running 40 seconds behind him at the end. *Kimisleepinginthecar.jpg*

The Iceman having a meltdown will never not be funny though.

It's down to Gio for losing it while accelerating in a straight line. I mean I'm sure the Sauber is poo poo but that's a bad driver mistake.

Vettle still woulda been in second even if Kimi wasn't Kimi.

The same thing is going to happen as it is with Ricciardo. Half-way through the season the team is going to quietly decide the guy in front is the number 1, and that the number 2's role is to do what is required.

If they do it now, Ricciardo and/or Raikkonen will flip the gently caress out.

Ricciardo didnt want to pass Mad Max today, even with his lookout. Raikkonen is trash and the only thing he did this weekend was defend againt Vettel.

The fact they're pootling round with a dogshit power unit and not even making it to the end of a race just because it's paying their bills is demonstrable proof that Alonso's contract is not ironclad. Money talks, bullshit walks.

Also its pathetic that Alonsos Mclaren breaks down when he pushes it. The other car is trash either way but Alonso could drag that car to a 10 place if the drat thing could resist a little.

My middle daughter who is a pure and innocent casual viewer untainted by snark was screaming " if he's saying his car is broken then MAKE HIM MOVE OUT IF THE WAY FOR SEB" at the television and is of the firm opinion that it was Kimi being "a bone head" that lost Seb the race.
