Haha I just realized Lance Stroll is going to have to drive an F1 car around Monaco at least until they run out of cars for him to crash.

Oh god, the relief on Nando's face when talking about Indi is genuinely heartbreaking.

As much as I like jense, I can't see an out-of-practise Button in a MCL32 actually doing anything of note.
He'll just (maybe) finish a bit outside the points after being on camera twice.

Or maybe he'll just pull into the pits, because, MCL32.

It's a realistic chance for Stoffel Vandoorne to beat a former world champion in equal machinery, I'm sure he will be up to the task.

I listened to the BBC preview podcast at work today and they made sure to mention how dangerous Indycar is at least five times. Let me just pre-emptively pour one out for the late great Fernando "1.5 Crowns Ain't Bad" Alonso Díaz.

Indycar has killed what, 2 drivers in the last 5 years? And F1 only 1. F1 is second best in so many ways.

F1 kills the drivers on the inside, where it counts.

DiResta just acted like he wouldn't race the 500 and said it was because of the risk.

No one asked you to race the 500, Paul.

Mercades have ditched the mediums because they are "ahead of their program" presumably they looked at the data and went "these are poo poo" and binned them all.

Even Sir Jackie said he thought Indy oval races were too dangerous, to be fair to DiResta (Italian for "the rest" because he's not the best)

Yeah but that's because the other guy was Lance Stroll. Old man Massa makes sense with that in mind.
