Moving the goal posts I see cos you couldn't fight the constructors? Hamilton had more bad luck than Alonso in 2010 (Alonso is at best 4th best that year behind Vettel, Hamilton & Kubica) & 2012. The only argument of where Alonso was objectively better than Hamilton was 2011

Chris, I'm on your side here. I said Lewis was better & only lost to Alonso due to more bad luck.

Can't even debate still because he ran away from it with blocking.

Nothing dumb about it. Unblock & let's have a discussion. I'm not the one that's thrown unnecessary insults over a 4 year old incident in which you refuse to acknowledge or consider the argument around why Lewis is to blame.

Quelle surprise, he blocked because he didn't want to debate or give any evidence as to why we're wrong or why 2022 worked or why Lewis isn't then to blame for Monza 21 and Brazil 22 by the same logic.

No, you ran away because you couldn't acknowledge that Lewis made a small error that had big consequences. Not on purpose, but that his understeer is the reason for the collision. As has been pointed out, leclerc was further to the right and yet both cars safely made it through.

Source on that price? It's a fact that V6's were more expensive when they were introduced even more than when V8's were first. It's common sense given how complex the current power units are Vs just a combustion engine.

Costs of engines doubled when teams moved from the V8's to the V6's. It is 100% a reason as to why we lost 2 teams.

2003 if you want the year. Except it has. Did you see 2010? So many races where significantly faster cars were just stuck because they couldn't get close enough to overtake due to the fact the car in front will always have an advantage. DRS doesn't mean instant overtake

And I recall in 2019 when DRS was not working at abu dhabi, it showed exactly why it was needed because Bottas in a Mercedes couldn't overtake significantly slower cars.

Still nothing from you to change the opinion. You've gotten things wrong before.

How is this dumb? Explain instead of just saying it. You've given 0 evidence to back up your point. You probably saw Monaco, Silverstone to justify your point and ignored, Bahrain, Canada , France and Fuji (4 races Hamilton scored 0 because of his own mistakes).

And? Lewis was in a championship winning car straight away. Massa had multiple years in a sauber. It's the standard tactic to put another driver down as an excuse for why he was in a title fight with your favourite driver. Kubica was the best driver in 2008.

Or you're once again putting down another driver that had just as good a season. You put down Massa's ability but Lewis wasn't significantly better than him in 2008. He wasn't even the best driver that season.

They need to look at the impeding penalty system for drivers that impede and get through whilst those that do get impeded miss out. I don't think Vettel should be allowed to run in Q3 cos of what happened with Alonso #F1
Doubt they're going through. Goal difference puts them currently in 4th out of the 3rd placed teams with 3 groups still to play (they're behind Portugal who have yet to play). They'd need a draw between Croatia and Scotland, Spain to lose to Slovakia and Poland to not beat Sweden

And if one of those 2 group scenarios happen, they'd then need Portugal to get smashed by France
It's the same principle! That's my point! People aren't criticising the teams that are spending more than they earn outside the premier league! I mentioned wolves and leicester. Villa did the same in 2017/18-2018/19. Salford did it in non league. City are being made a scapegoat

Cos they're the team in the premier league and cos it's more money. Yet it's happening elsewhere on a lower scale in the Championship etc

You've singled him out cos of one thing he's done when the majority of the grid have done things that are prick-ish at different points in their careers.

Ricciardo is another example of someone that says some crap yet doesn't get any heat for what he says

That's not on the line! The front of his foot is behind the line! You need to stop the bias

Plus commentators were saying it was behind the line eg Match of the Day

How is shearer borderline? He’s the all time top scorer in the league, and all those goals came with teams that aren’t traditional top 4 sides (one of which he won the league with). Also lampard is the only midfielder to have more than 150 goals and is 4th in all time assists

Cech is a 50/50 choice between him and Schmeichal. Cech has won 4 golden gloves and has the all time number of premier league clean sheets

If I was at Haas, I would go for Perez for the talent and experience plus the sponsors/merch sales he brings in. 2nd driver either Schumacher or Ilott cos of the Ferrari link. Which one out of the 2 depends on what Alfa Romeo decide with their current lineup #bbcf1

@UrinatingTree thoughts on this alternative playoff format. 20 teams instead. Top 6 in each conf play round robin to determine their positions (1st starts with 10pts , 2nd with 8 until 6th with 0).next 4 in each conf plays best of 7 (7th v 10th. 8th v 9th) .

Winners of those occupy 7th and 8th spot. Then we're back to 1st Vs 8th 2nd Vs 7th etc in each conference with best of 7s etc
