Not going to read the 900+ posts from the long weekend, but I can summarize my thoughts thusly:

4:10 in the Japan highlight video "squeezed his Hass right past the Williams". - Good.


... :suicide: (that's bad)

There's no chance he won't win it now. At least there's been some good on track action this year, even if it all means nothing in the end.

Yeah, it's all but done at this point but who knows until it's finally sealed.

Also, out of curiosity, I looked it up:

2016 Race Winners: Rosberg, Hamilton, Ricciardo, Verstappen (4)
2016 Podium Finishers: Rosberg, Hamilton, Ricciardo, Verstappen, Vettel, Bottas, Raikkonen, Perez, Kvyat (9)

2017 Race Winners: Hamilton, Vettel, Bottas, Ricciardo, Verstappen (5)
2017 Podium Finishers: Hamilton, Vettel, Bottas, Ricciardo, Verstappen, Raikkonen, Stroll (7)

So we've had more winners so far, but less people on the podium

RedBull is fraudulent (Austrian) but Mercedes is legitimate German so Mercedes deserves to win all championships

Heat 1 was run with realistic (unequal) car performance according to the drivers, and three of the top four were Mercedes, Ferrari, and Red Bull.

Ferrari didn't retire with an engine problem and therefore it wasn't realistic car performance.

Counter point: Mercedes is good (Run by two very good Austrians) and RBR is bad being run by a Brit.

Actuially, you might find that David Coulthard is, in fact, quite Scottish. Like, extremely so. Not quite Sir Jackie levels of tartan pants but certainly close to that level.

David Coulthard is very cool and great and actually p handsome and the best commentator for F1 currently so I happily welcome him into the British family along with Andy Murray when he wins at tennis.

Uhhhhh.... excuse me but a PROUD Scotsman would never associate with the BRITISH illusion. Sir Jackie wears tartan pants. Coulthard has the saltire on his helmet.

McLaren were great when DC was driving for them for the simple reason that they could just put a box inside the car to test the aero, as it was the best representation of his magnificent chin!

Find it funny that Merc say they are concerned about Bottas performance, yet in the same weekend say they used him to prevent Vettels comeback, in Eddie Jordan voice, c'mon Toto, which is it

Pretty sure Ferrari's engine department prevented Vettel's comeback.
