    Leclerc must surely be at risk of some kind of penalty for knowingly driving round with his belt not done up?

    I like how clean the Indycars are & the use of the halo to make a windscreen.

    Bernie might be back in F1 :shock:

    Apparently Williams wasn't really sold to Dorilton Capital, but rather one of it's subsidiaries, BCE Limited.
    There's little information available about the BCE Limited, but it's suspected to be short for Bernard Charles Ecclestone, Bernie's full name.

    Seriously, how is Ferrari getting worse each race?

    Hamilton, Bottas & Verstappen top 3 again...

    Great race for the Renaults, not so great for the Pinkcedes.

    Thought it was going to be points for Kvyat but Gasly & Perez cut through the field too quick for his old tyres.

  12. They won't keep any stake in the team either?

    No surprised it ends like this though. Claire never looked like she had anywhere near what it takes to run a team.

    before sale it was allegedly set up thus:
    ownership was split between Sir Frank (51.3 percent), Brad Hollinger (11.7 percent), Head (9.3 percent), a 24.1-percent stake on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and an employee trust fund held the final 3.6 percent.

    afaik williams family ended up with 100m euros

    Ferrari fans spared the price of a ticket by a pandemic. Leclerc manages 13th and says that's the best lap he can do.

    So about that party mode ban......

    Spa, gap to Verstapen, 0.5, Italy 0.9.

    Considering Red Bull pushed for the party mode ban, I am finding this hilarious.

    Be careful what you wish for Horner, you might just get it.

    The race is a forgone conclusion, seeing as now Merc are going to be even faster as they won't be able to turn the engine down!

    Can someone ELIA (Explain Like I'm American) this party mode ban?

    The team can use only one engine map from start of qualifying to end of race.
