RE: Hambone's crash at Zandvoort, on lap 7 his race engineer radioed to him, "Focus on the exit of Turn 3." At which point Hambone pressed the Kimi Raikkonen button (Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing).

On his 23rd lap, Hambone took a slightly higher line into Turn 3, entered the corner 3-4 kph faster, and braked a little later than before.

And ended up in the Armco.

Nicely done, Lewis.

And people wonder why his relationship with the new team hasn't "gelled."

Grim news for Ferrari fans. Two of the Scuderia’s longest-tenured engine designers have abandoned ship (which the author says isn’t unusual for a team on a losing streak).

And an Eye-Tie motorsports journalist says it’s only three months to the homologation cut-off date and Ferrari haven’t run the complete power unit on a test bench yet.

Which I take to mean they might wind up homologating vaporware.
