It wasn't trying to pick an argument between drivers.

Was a fun race. Bottas is a serious contender at this point. Got to wonder if the bits Ferrari were forced to take off before last race means its back to Mercedes being a clear #1. Something about a flexible underbody piece or something? And maybe using oil in the fuel was mentioned abput Ferrari too.

Always fun watching verstappen when he's close to others. Once it's all.spread out, he can't show what he can do as much. His fight with vettel was great.
Certainly NOT riled up, just tossing in a record that I suspect might never (never, say never) be broken.

Personally I think these spurious statistics bandied about are just commentators floss, it seems there always some 'first' about to be reached.

Like my Fangio post, one can not realistically compare the various eras with each other, so winning more races that X does not diminish X's achievement.

Still it keeps the children happy.
