"That is a racer."

Statement made by one of the American commentators at Indianapolis as Alonso climbed out of his blown car.

Neatly sums up Fred's Indycar outing, he certainly has my respect!

Wolff dismissing Eddie Jordan's recent claim that Merc may pull out after the 2018 season.

"Monaco is a place where people like to party and it seems like somebody did a bit too much of that,"

https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/f...claims-915204/

i dont think Monaco is the issue though...too much sauce is a problem EJ has everywhere!

This weeks quote of the week winner has to be Kimi Raikkonen during FP3 in Canada.

Kimi Raikkonen: "Are we going back to tomorrow? Go back to tomorrow's set up. Sorry yesterday's set up."

Has Ferrari employed Doc Brown to engineer Kimi's car?

I think Mr Alonso to his race engineer, presumably before the engine went

Engineer: "This pace is good. We're looking at Plan A plus 5. Plan A plus 5"
Alonso: "You are not giving me useful information"

He did sound like he had a much better idea of what was going on and who he was racing than the pit wall. Although that is made of concrete.

Maybe the engineer expected the engine to fail. The 'Plus 5' is 5 laps longer than they thought it would last

I have to agree. I'm generally pro Lewis, but he made a glaringly obvious mistake by not attending that in my opinion...

That prat of a journo made himself look ridiculous with that question. I was totally with Lewis in his response to it. Lowest level, trying to whip up non stories out of very little.

im guessing this was the question you guys are referring to?

i thought DR's respond and the little back and forth between DR and PW was pretty funny. well worth the stupid question.

Q: (Jon McEvoy – Daily Mail) The day before the hearing, the FIA hearing into Sebastian Vettel and his accident with Lewis, the boss of Mercedes, Toto Wolff, went to a birthday party to celebrate the thirtieth of Sebastian Vettel. I was wondering, from all drivers, would you be surprised most relevantly for Lewis, but would you be surprised and see it as maybe an act of loyalty or otherwise for your boss to go to a birthday of a rival with whom you’ve just had an accident before the hearing?

DR: Free alcohol. Doesn’t matter how much money you make, you don’t turn that down.

Unless it’s out of your shoe.

DR: Yeah, actually, good point.

LH: All I can do is laugh at that one. I don’t really have an answer for that one to be honest. That’s the dumbest question I’ve had so far.

PW: I think Seb is a really nice guy so I would also go to his birthday.

DR: Why weren’t you invited?

PW: I don’t know! Maybe he doesn’t think that I’m nice.

Not a quote of the week, but this has to be the photo of the week, if not the season!

Alonso does it again!



This took place during the podium presentations and took a lot of attention away from the Ferrari 1-2.
