Just watching it now and it's a little sickening, but it's sky so it really is par for the course.

As for Lewis' behavior, I'm not sure why there was so much hatred from some post race as I thought he came across quite dignified in the interviews.

Unhappy and a little sulky yes, but pretty restrained otherwise.

It was a bit over the top how they expect the team to coddle Lewis but from Sky's perspective they didn't really have much else to talk about this afternoon lol.

And that was Schumacher, a driver who famously showed his emotions only about 2 other occasions.
(Storming into the Mclaren pit threatening to kill DC in Spa 1998 and the relief of the title win in 2003 leading to hotel trashing drunkenness as pressure was vented :lol: )


There was also the less-known third incident where, after Hill took him out of the '95 British GP, a reporter trying to get an interview accidentally inserts his microphone into his mouth.

It's a brief clip on the Duke tape for that year, but worth it for the amusing face.

You know with that old St Devote, Max would have had an even bigger crash.

Something like that, he'd have slammed into that barrier and Grosjean would have been taken out with him. Max would have then continued into the barriers on the other side, both of which would have been harder hits then into that Tecpro barrier.

It's soo easy to blame Verstappen for being young.
Read some reactions on the Internet. Guys are blaming for poor entertainment, then there is a new kid who is enjoying racing and who wants to take risks with racing, and then it's still not good.

And then blaming for being too young.. So stupid.

Same for Derek Warwick shafting into Marc Surer at the 1985 race (?) it was a shame as it was a potential podium finish for them at the time of the accident.

Regarding about the Patrese/Piquet, it caused one of the greatest comebacks at Monaco as Lauda went off the oil and retired. Michele Alboreto did the same and continued, he fought back and gained on Prost. He overtook the Frenchman and then he had a puncture.
Again he had to recover and fought back but it was too late for the win.

Monaco 85 was one of the best show offs by Alboreto. he had a good race craft on street courses

Lol at Massa's reaction to Max.... I still believe Grosjean braked a little earlier then the lap before, and Max was on attack-mode on fresh tyres on which he could brake much later than Grosjean, so yeah you can say that the extreme difference in tyre degradation is potentially dangerous? At least max tried to overtake, and this time it ended in disaster for him. But its better than 80% of the grid who think its impossible to overtake and don't even try anything.

If that wall was still there then he never would have made the move, as the angle would have been too accute and he wouldn't have been able to get around the corner. Also with the opening up of the exit of the swimming pool, specifically removing the inside barrier, that surely can't be for safety? When has a car ever hit the inside barrier on the apex? Or more specifically when has a car ever had a big off at that corner?

I can only remember Barrichello in 1999 in the Stewart and even then it wasn't a very big shunt.

Man, I'\/e seen spoiled child reactions, but Hamilton afterlap, and him arri\/ing at the grid. Looked like a 1 year old trying to hold his breath and suffocate until it gets what it wants. Most ridicolous reaction. Way to go Lewis. And then he post those pics of a Bad boy lol lol lol. At least he is really fast, but man, he is really so full of himself. F1 pilots already had big egos when winning championships. But when you already are treated like a champ and ha\/e e\/erything your way since the base categories. Then we ha\/e the king of spoiled brats farm. Hamilton and Vettel. Alonso is another one but he hadnt all this spoiled brat school beforehand.

And if you want to show you emotions and stay classy. Schumacher at Spa 98 is some example. Oh maybe not. Anyway, a comedy actor on Lewis place couldn't do it better this time around.

What about that small pile up after Sutil gone off and Petrov got involved as well? It was a massive blue balls finish at that time.
