They have for once a great car and they fuck it up. A shame! Not even replacing the team principal will work

Having a team principal like Horner would be better for them. He's a winner who demands real standards and would of course sack everyone in the engineering and strategy department at once for their incompetence this season.

Sounds like Enzo.

If Enzo were alive, he would be absolutely pissed at Ferrari's F1 team right now.

I wouldn't be surprised if he fired everyone there.

The last win for GTE Pro goes to Porsche after the Corvettes crashed out.

Aston Martin claims the last GTE Am.

Something happened in LMP2, I'm sure of it.

Next year, 100th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Supposedly there'll be an actual hypercar field and GTE will be replaced with GT3 with modified bodywork.

Something will happen in LMP2, I'm sure of it.

Yeah, the LMP2s went around punting the Corvettes off the track.

Anthony Davidson was driving in LMP2 for a while, must have rubbed off on them.

I only caught that the remain Corvette crashed out, I didn't track who else was in the incident. LMP2 to me is essentially background noise.

I have literally been focused on F1 now. I eve watched some nice ass documentaries from gold youtube channels. Origin of the silver wars is one of those videos if that rings a bell to anyone here. Very nice fan made docu.

That was a seriously scary crash though.

Zhou bearing the brunt of it, Gasly sort of slamming into Russell causing the latter to spin out. Albon also spun out while Gasly and Ocon had some damage to their cars. Of course it's hard to put a grade for the three drivers that had to retire due to the accident so they all get a not applicable.

Right? It's such a great way to do the whole F1 season except that you probably already who won the championship by the time it streams.

But I hate it when they do that to 24 hour races, I want to watch the race and makes almost no sense.

If I ever get around to getting my accounts linked so I can watch F1 races I might think it's even better having watched the season and then see all the behind the paddock so to speak drama.

It completely is a great marketing strategy for F1. More or less because it has catapulted their popularity in many parts of the world. I watched F1 last year but wasnt really engaged into it and I think i missed the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. I only got back to watching about the middle of May just in time for the Miami Grand Prix after I heard that Lewis was not the defending champion. Great season from last year and I believe this one too. :clap:
