    Could possibly be the most exciting and competitive seasons in decades.So into it this year I find myself watching all the free practice sessions.Today’s race should be good with 3 different constructors in top 3 spots.No doubt a red flag or 2 thrown into the mix too.

    Just cant get enough
    Just watching the f1 where the race for the top 2 places has been given zero coverage because Lewis Hamilton isn’t involved. Shocking.

    I saw that! Max would have got the coverage too tbh but Ocon was jst out there on his own for the whole race, 4 time World Champion Vettel jst behind as well and he didnt get any coverage....
    Its a spicy season though

    Russell been told he will het the same treamemt as Hamilton, wont be 2nd fiddle... Aye we'll see!

    Russell's the future and all that but can still see Russell getting the Bottas 'Drop Back, let Hamilton past' requests for atleast another year.

    Buzzing for next year though, Alfa Romeo must have something up their sleeve to persuade Bottas..

    Aye true.


    Think this is the first I’ve seen really make an impact to the general audience though. I couldn’t imagine someone watching that Sunderland documentary or the Dortmund, Spurs etc ones on Amazon and suddenly becoming a diehard :giggle1:

    Good point, but then that's more specific! There clubs within the sport.
    Driver to Survive has brought people to watch F1 in general!

    My mate bought a * Mercedes tracksuit after only watching for a year, folk are going proper mad for it!

    Won’t be long before we’re seeing ‘Respect from a Ferrari fan’ on posts about opposition drivers :giggle1:
