Is Lewis the youngest looking 34 year old on the planet?
At 34 i looked like I was 50.
Huh it's in the subtitles (which I'm surprised the official F1 account put on there, nice to see them not being super family friendly). Daniel asks him if he's got pubes yet, funny in the context of the question and given Norris' baby faced young age.
I always love it when the drivers act like regular damn people on camera.
Kudos to Haas for making their title sponsor an even bigger joke than Mission: Win Now!

Is the alleged new Brazil track for 2021? And I didn't know that Hanoi was coming next year already. I have extremely low expectations for it and Zandvoort, but it would take skill to somehow be worse than Barcelona.
Me, actually. Vergne seems to have a healthy lead but anything can happen.
I wasn't joking I fucking love Formula E, thinking about making an OT once these finale's are on youtube to entice people in to watching this year's season ahead of the next one.
I'd like Da Costa or Mitch Evans to win.
No idea on the future of the Brazilian GP. The Rio track seems unlikely to happen anytime soon however. Ideally InterLagos can secure a deal, maybe we will hear something when we get to Brazil later this season. Hanoi track layout somewhat reminds me of an even more boring version of the Korean GP circuit. Zandvoort is a fantastic track to drive on, racing and overtaking though? It isn't the best, very narrow and hardly any heavy braking zones.
How does he still have a seat?!
At work. What did he do?
Good idea, I'd sub to that immediately. I was skeptical after the first races because while the order would drastically change from race to race, I feared it was due to the new regulations and cars, and there weren't a lot of passes or exciting moments. I think we all remember how the first race went: quite literally a train from start to finish except for the leading 2 cars crashing each other out in the final corner of the final lap. Nowadays however every race is full of passes, tactics, unpredictable shit, and all this on mostly street circuits. It's easily one of the most entertaining series right now, and I know people love to shit on it because "lulz burnout F1 drivers", but those who follow other series know that the likes of Buemi, Di Grassi, Lopez or Abt aren't exactly "not even good enough for F1" trash.
That Mexico E Prix when, I think it was Rowland, lost all his power right at the end and lost pole position.
Man, what a fucking race.
I've always disliked Grosjean. He's not particularly good and he's always whining about something. Hopefully Haas gives him the boot next year. Plenty of better drivers out there.
How does he still have a seat?!
Yeah, that shit was bonkers. The whole final lap was unbelieveable to follow.
See, this is the kind of unpredictable madness I miss from Formula 1. There's occasionally a bonkers finish like Spa 2008 (or Brazil 2008, for that matter), but it's too damn rare to have anything exciting to happen in the final laps of the race. We come from a race where it just happened in F1 too, and it was the first time since... when? Austria 2016 maybe?
Right, I'll do it next week when the NY races are on YT.
The annoying thing about FE is that it's a pain in the ass to try and watch, I'm in New Zealand, they don't even show it live on any channel. I have to wait a whole week and avoid spoilers so that I can watch it on their YT channel.
It's unnecessarily difficult here in the U.S. as well. FE races are broadcast on one of the many Fox variants but never near when the actual race takes place. Qualifying usually goes up fairly close to the actual event but the race itself sometimes takes days to air.
"We made the mistake of giving him a wheely swivel chair. Three members of the board have been hospitalised"
"As soon as he walked through the door he tripped over his shoe laces and knocked the coffee machine over"
Lolsjean too hopped up on Rich Energy I guess. Reminds me of Adrian Newey wrecking on the warm up lap...but much worse. he didn't even make the warm up lap. There has to be about a dozen better drivers out there to fill his seat.
Just how? You going 50kmh and still you can spin? Nah grojean isn t F1 material.
If it happened every week it wouldn't be special.
Just this season we've had Bahrain and Austria with absolutely mental finishes, how much more often do you want it?
If people want more "messy" races it would be very easy. Just fill the F1 grid with a bunch of hasbeens and neverweres like FE does, it leads to mistakes and mistakes lead to excitement.

Bahrein was fun but... mental finish? The leader had a car issue 2/3rds in and was passed without any chance to defend himself by two other cars before a SC saved him from further position losses. The other key event (Vettel spinning out) happened a lot earlier. We had one race this year where the winner wasn't a done deal coming into the final laps, and we seem to be lucky to get one of these races per year nowadays as normally the positions after the only (the one and only, usually) pit stop are then set in stone.
Onboards glitch like that all the time. It was like that from the very first replay of the incident.
So the only thing Horner remembers was that there were no overtakes when we had refueling? uhm what?
