Formula 1 Discussion - And favourite driver?

[LiveFromNS]

F1 raced a few more times at Kyalami. In fact the returned to South Africa in 1992 and they also drove in 1993 before never returning because of the organization (in real talk: corruption) of the race event. If you are interested I have several races on Rumble. this here is the 1993 South African GP F1 1993

Oh shit yes of course. Completely forgot about early 90s.

Thanks for the link, I should upload what I have on Rumble someday too. Somewhere in the mess of data and drives I need to deal with soon.

Also, shout out to Felix Rosenqvist. Another Swede not good/connected enough to race (or do enough to stay, like Ericsson when he sucked there) in F1, drinks the milk, gets the ring and kisses the bricks. Crazy end, I only saw the last 2 laps but that was worth it.

The whole race was pretty great, will probably go down as a classic. Lots of drama, plenty of great moves (I don't really care about the lead change stat because it was a lot of same team shuffling to save fuel) and the closest finish to date in the history of the Indy 500. The extended highlights are up on youtube.

Leclerc will never win a WDC so i guess being a model or whatever the fuck he does while larping as a f1 driver will work well for him after all. Verstappen is a Senna level asshole so thats why people like him and the team builds around him meanwhile Alonso is just an asshole and should be thinking in getting the fuck out. Its time

Radio: "Yeah, I totally understand, Lance. Totally understand."​

Stroll: "And Lawrence. And Lawrence. ... I'm completing the race for the mechanics and Lawrence, that's it."​
