Was it Ascari who went into the drink like a week before he ended himself at Monza? e: it was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtxrp52PeDE e2: Wikipedia posted:Ascari was not supposed to drive that day but decided to try a few laps. In his jacket and tie, shirt sleeves, ordinary trousers and Castellotti's white helmet he set off. Baller as gently caress.

People, silence. Lance has spoken!quote:Lance Stroll insists that he is taking his rookie F1 season with Williams race by race, and says that he regards the criticism that he has faced as "funny." https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/f1-stroll-funny-criticism-no-extra-pressure-909798/ I love Paddy's non-answer and just highlighting of the pressure. The only thing his performances are doing are justifying all the publicly known external criticism. Way to find the criticism "funny" you loving loaf.

Human Grand Prix posted:Going from F3->F1 is not new. In fact, the best drivers usually came right from F3 as opposed to F2/F3000. Yeah but F3 back in the 80s was significantly different to what it is today.

Yeah Stroll it's loving hilarious you're in over your head. F3 seems to be your peak. Go back.

In just over a day Tony's probate ends and we have to once again put up with his poo poo posting that is totally not in the spirit of the thread. I for one have thoroughly enjoyed this lapse - albeit so very briefly - back to the more fun days of The Worst Thread. Its a shame its about to go to poo poo once more.

I imagine his dad is paying for all the crash damage his son is inflicting. It's like they're not going to come out ahead financially in this (Williams). A lovely pay driver is one that just eats up all the cash he even brings because of how poo poo-bad he is where he causes endless damage to the car. A mediocre/proper pay driver at least poodles around last or whatever, may occansionally score some points but at least brings teh car home in one piece without having to spend a chunk on repairing poo poo. And while his dad is apparently worth 2.6 billion I imagine Williams still got more from PDVSA.

The issue of course is Williams were expecting to have at least a B-Tier driver like Bottas in the other car, rather than the ghost of the ghost of Felipe Massa. I suspect as soon as they got to that they decided to tread water this year and focus on 2019, ideally with a driver who is at least good AND alive.

Graham Hill also won the WDC. If Nando wins the 500 and Le Mans, it would also be just as academic as he has both Monaco and the WDC legs wrapped up. The only person who's still actively racing that has also has a shot at either definition is JPM (500 and Monaco done already). Mario is probably one of the closest retired to one of the two definitions with a 2nd overall at Le Mans (as well as WDC and the 500).

I just remembered Jacques Villeneuve getting agonizingly close to the triple crown in 2008. If Le Mans stayed dry, he had it.

I'm going to make a (not-so) bold prediction and say that this weekend Stroll will cause or suffer one of the dumbest ever Monaco retirements. He's just too bad to last a full race around this tight circuit without massively loving up. I actually honestly hope he doesn't kill someone.
|
# ? May 24, 2017 17:00 |

He's going to bin it at exactly the right time to completely gently caress someone else's race. I would like it to be Hamilton's but I think we all know it will be Vettel's.

In fact why don't you just stay home and wrap yourself in cotton wool you loving tampon and then we won't have to listen to you crying all the drat time. ARG. I actually may hate Grosjean even more than Stroll.

I'd be curious how much new poo poo gets put on Stroll's car versus Massa's I'm guessing the percentage is close to zero.

Much like how Islamophobes play right into the hand of ISIS as their useful idiots... so, too, does those who dare criticize Lance Stroll as he laughs harder and harder while spearing into the side of practically poverty-stricken-Double-World-Champion-Spaniard-compared-to-Stroll Alonso at 300km/h.

Thank you for this. I reckon there will be a fair few safety cars or red flags if it isn't a total procession. These cars are that much wider so overtakes will be do or die. Also, I think we all need to take a moment to remember garbageman Palmer binning it in a straight line last year lmao.

To be honest the only memorable part of the past few years of Monaco has been people repeatedly blowing that chicane so it's going to be great seeing cars flying through the air now.
