If Ferrari were qualifying on the back of the grid and behind everyone with a Mercedes engine, how long do you think the current engine regs would last? Mercedes are just playing with F1 at the moment. |

Quote of this week undoubtedly from M. C Abullshit “there are never coincidences in this sport.”
Spot on mate, their engines are blowing up because you are giving them junk, and used junk at that. Not a coincidence! |

"Oh my ass is really warm now!" Max Verstappen FP 2 Brazil
Followed by, during the race: "How the track conditions Max?" Engineer "Yeah, sunny." Max "Yeah, any more debris left?" Engineer. "Hehe, no." Max |

At the Abu Dhabi press conference, Vettel, Hamilton and Ricciardo together behind the desk.
Ricciardo says.. "Between us all we have 8 world titles, so it's pretty good." There were more great quotes between the three. Best press conference of the year. |

What was it Kevin said during practice about that brolly? "We don't need shade" I think he said?

“..to be honest the whole race was pretty much fuel saving … try to hold the guy behind and try to save enough fuel to be legal , in the end, so nothing to do with racing really, it’s just unfortunate that with the rules and some circuits, it’s like this and it’s really not fun.” Kimi Raikkonen after Abu Dahbi GP. Good summary of current F1. |

Ferrari had short filled both cars at Abu Dhabi (as they did at a few other races). This is the reason they were 'saving fuel'. But don't let facts get in the way of a rant.
ps. The Hamilton/Mercedes hate even managed to infiltrate the quote of the week thread!?? |

So Ferrari short filled, to try to gain an advantage, and still finished 20+ seconds behind? Man, Vettel must be one amazing driver to drag that lump to challenge Hamilton and Mercedes huh?

"Lewis Hamilton’s new engine and maximum attack pace at least gave Ferrari, Renault and Honda a clue as to how much power and efficiency they need to find this winter. And I doubt the GPS and sound analysis will make for happy reading, unless you’re in Brixworth."

What's strange is although they corrected it in the response below, it actually had a capital W

Ralf Waldman the German MotoGP rider sadly died of a heart attack this week at only 51.
In this obituary this classic quote was attributed to him: After the race he was asked if he was a hero. Waldmann’s reply was typical of the man. “When I started on wet tyres I was an idiot. Then when it rained and I could win, I was a hero. The difference between hero and idiot is very small.” https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/o...mann-1966-2018 |

Some crackers at the end of the season:
[Vettel's message to Charles] "To Charles, you are the most talented driver I came across in 15 years of F1. Don't waste it." "Whatever you do to be happy and smile. Thanks for everything!" -Seb snd Lando's farewell to Carlos "To Carlota, cheers for all the awesome times and for all the golf tips you muppet. I hope you drive really badly next season. From your best teammate you will ever have, Lando " Just plain brilliant. https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/co..._to_carlos_to/ |
