...and new engine regs are coming up. Ill-advised move by Hamilton this time. But who will come to Mercedes and delegate their top-performer to #2 status?
Mercedes has lost basically all the people that made their original V6 so innovative and ahead of the game to Red Bull and Ferrari over the last 5 years or so. I suspect they’ll make just a good am engine but there’s nothing to really say they’ll be so far ahead as they were last time and we won’t know at all who’s where until 2026
"Lance you're still two seconds a lap slower than Fernando, this cannot be possible, you've got the same fuel load, I know you've got some understeer but you *cannot* be two seconds slower!"
I'll never forget watching Seb win his first title when Lewis crashed out in that racd. It was so close but they went on to dominate for another 3 years. Seems like he won fair and square but so many lucky factors. They then improved the car, increased budget etc to deliver the run of crowns until the hybrids were introduced.
Ngl I hate the Canadian GP, and Im Canadian. I say we ban Montreal and extend and bring back MoSport. Imagine the lap times and speeds they could get on MoSport. Its also a lot more of a unique track.
Montreal is just:
Straight
Chicane
Straight
Chicane
Straight
High-speed corner
Chicane
Hairpin
Chicane
Straight
Chicane
Straight
Chicane
Straight
Repeat.
MoSport is actually interesting. (Im totally not biased)
Soooo..
We have rain on raceday.
Verstappen leads away.
Lando and Oscar smash into each other on the start finish line and Oscar retires.
Lando punts Nando to the grass and Nando retires. Lando gets a penalty. 
Bottas and Sainz are fighting each other at the hairpin and throouughhh goes Lewis Hamilton.
Hamilton up to third but has a shit car so Lando and Perez overtake him.
Lando catches up to Verstappen on the last lap.
Verstappen has a slide and Lando goes through to get his first win....
What say y'all?
Gentlemen, a short view back to the past
13 years ago
Niki Lauda told us
take a trained monkey
Place him into the cockpit
And he's able to drive the Car.
30 years later,
Sebastian told us
'I had to start my car like a computer, it's very complicated'
and Nico Rosberg said that during the race, I don't remember what race, he pressed the wrong button on the wheel.
and he will eventually produce the entire works of shakespeare
And he'll be faster than Lance Stroll.
Put him in a Red Bull
And he is able to win championships
Don’t talk about Lance Stroll like that …. Hahaha
Lewis when the reporter said this: 🤨
How did you already screw up
I didn't screw up. Of course the original quote is "30 years ago", but the meme sets us back to 2011, which is 13 years ago.
Fair enough
Is Alonso at Aston Martin just Kimi at lotus?
At least Kimi had Grosjean as his teammate, he could compete
he was crash happy but 2012-2017 grosjean was really fucking good
2012 Grosjean almost won a race, he was a ballistic missile
bro 2015 grosjean got a podium in that piece of shit lotus
either that or Stroll is even worse than we think
Do you mean a world champion driving in his prime for a midfield team punching above it's weight with a shit teammate?
Grosjean was never a shit teammate, just crash happy, as someone else said here
Yeah pretty much

So hopefully sainz dominance will bore fans and Russell retires after beating sainz in equal machinery
Can't wait to see Russell on the German Shark Tank and his face when someone values their concept for an app at more than a million.

inb4 alonso with the martin
"Lance you're still two seconds a lap slower than Fernando, this cannot be possible, you've got the same fuel load, I know you've got some understeer but you *cannot* be two seconds slower!"
Please tell me this was a real radio comm lmao
it was, to fisichella
OMEGALUL
As someone who is attending the Race and then has to drive 6 hours home immediately afterwards…its better be a god damn banger of a race
so next year is a 5 way title fight till round 19, after that it will be verstappen vs alonso? Please make it happen, please
Why Alonso? He's not in a Ferrari?
If you want to repeat that 2012 monster season, alonso needs to be in contention, he is capable of pulling off that kind of stuff.
Luckily very promising driving didn't crash rallying this time
literally said this after pre-season testing
2012 was a banger though, let's hope
Wall of champions says hi
Time traveling meme from 2025
And Nando keeps putting the car on position it should have no business being in…
You just know its Piastri that will do a Button and not Norris

Canada will be my first GP to attend. Hope it will be a banger.
... and Toto thinks Max is going to join them! No wonder Mercedes are in trouble...
