@F1BigData Fun fact: There are only 4 World Champions who never raced with the number 1 : Hawthorne, Rindt, Mansell, and Rosberg. All of them left F1 after their achievement. (Rindt died before he got it and Mansell came back 2 years after)
@HB0ND1@EphjuanMotophan @landoscult Schumi 1994, 2 way fight against Hill. Hamilton 2008, 2 way fight against Massa. Vettel 2010, 4 way fight against WEB, ALO and HAM. Verstappen 2021, 2 way fight against Hamilton. Apart from Vettel and Max, who didn't have the best car (RB 2010 wasn't reliable) I don't a huge diff
@Myr2024F1@F1 27 laps old medium against 2 laps old soft. You can take a look at the yt f1 channel. There's some videos that explain tires' degradation and everything.
@dutchmaxflying Piastri was 0,583s off Lando, but nobody said anything because he was p3 on the grid. And Piastri has never been astonishing in those last tracks in previous years.
I feel for both McLaren drivers today, but I have to say, this policy of “two No.1’s” was always going to suck for both of them..
Lando did absolutely nothing wrong today, got unlucky with a bad pitstop (that’s racing), and then gets booed on the podium because of a decision taken on the pit wall. Feels unjust for the situation he found himself in.
Oscar did absolutely nothing wrong, drove his race, and benefited from something outside of his control (that’s racing), but then has to give it up to make it “fair”
Fair?? This is motor racing!!
Good luck, bad luck, it’s all part of it, I’ve been on both sides of it at times.
I don’t like the idea of team orders to ‘sanitise’ the racing. It strips the sport of its unpredictability.
I can’t think of a past world champion that would have obeyed that order in that situation today, but I understand why Oscar did. There’s still a long way to go.
Another chance because you did so good. If we reach 12k followers by tomorrow I’ll give EVERYONE who likes, retweets, comments and follows one Demonic Value Pack!
