Come on Pierre, get with the program and wreck a few cars- you’re lagging behind lol
and to think Pierre dint get a scratch... i’d of lost money if i bet at the beginning of the season 8^)
He got scratches - in Monaco where that idiot Ocon tried to pass him going into the tunnel at Portier - but the report says he didn’t CAUSE any damage. He still got a point at Monaco.
The $$ amounts are questionable, but there is probably no way to really accurately price the cost of crash damage.
Perfect description !!!

UK’s Mail Online is reporting that Eddie Jordan (76) has ‘aggressive’ cancer of the prostate and bladder.
He probably shouldn’t be buying green bananas any more.
Ferrari already has had a chat with Sainz about coming back to the Scuderia in 2028 if Hambone retires after ‘27.

‘26 will be the Year of the Apocalypse, when the greener-than-ever, triple-the-electric-horseppower formula takes effect. That’s going to be such a YUGE goatrope I don’t think Nostradamus could predict what will happen. If it weren’t for that, I’d bet a lifetime supply of beer and hotwings that Hambone won’t make it past ‘26. The self-doubt is already gnawing at him, comedy sure to follow.
Rawanda?? The hotbed of open wheel racing...like India and Korea, F1 doesn’t care as long as the promoter signs the check
Rwanda president Paul Kagame has confirmed his country is bidding to host a grand prix in the future and said “good progress” has been made in discussions with Formula 1.
Over the past year, F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has made no secret of his desire for the sport to return to the African continent, which has not hosted a grand prix since the 1993 South Africa Grand Prix at Kyalami.
Kagame was speaking ahead of this year’s FIA prize-giving ceremony, which is being hosted in Rwanda’s capital, Kigali, on Friday night.
Are RPGs approved for team tactics?
Hang bodies along side the track.
Rawanda! Teams better ship an extra car, crimes a problem….. things tend to disappear.
dear God...

Ricciardo is awesome - if you can look past the fact that he can’t drive anymore.
LOL...
Go away, Ricci Danny. Just go away…..
The new team will not win out of the box. Smiley has massive experience which is very helpful with getting car up to speed. He also brings something no other driver possesses, fans love him. Great guy, funny and will bring great PR to the team. That is a win, win, win for the team!
He was always 10% talent an 90% ego.
90% ego is like a schoolboy's uniform on AC/DC's Angus Young. It looks hip on you when you're 20, but when you're 35, it's just creepy.
258 starts, three poles, 8 wins.
Danica Patrick could have done that well.
If that's all you want, hire Jenson Button. He's got all that, plus the credibility of a WDC. Schnozla's claim to fame is being the perpetually grousing #2 driver.
Remember all professional sports have become a business, the sport is just the draw to put fans in the seats which allow for advertising. More press, more screen time equals more sponsors. Thus the reason for smiley who has a much higher Q Score in the USA than Jenson.
