The plot thickens even more and now starts to resemble the viscosity of peanut butter.

Anything said by van Haren is automatically false, even if it was true before he said it.

He is the worst for making up nonsense and hoping 1 in 20 will turn out to be true so he can claim deep inside knowledge.

He was the source for everything about the Horner stuff with everywhere else just citing to him when they report it.

What are the chances that they put Kimi in the commentator box? I'd love his takes on current F1.

he wouldn't be all that interesting either really. i love the guy but he makes it extremely obvious that he hates media and interviews.
hopefully ricciardo manages to get a position somewhere public when he retires, the guy exudes fun and energy.

Ricciardo will have no problem picking up media work.

If he doesn't end up being an F1 commentator or pundit with someone like Sky, he could easily get any media job he wants in Australia. Normies down here eat retired sportsmen up with a spoon, and one with the charisma of Ricciardo could do pretty much anything from sports reporter to breakfast radio host.
 
the racing is dull but the tea is fucking delicious this season

These commentators are sucking off Bearman so hard that Hamilton is getting jealous.

I'm conflicted on Bearman. On the one-hand he's an Essex boy - a home-grown talent - so I feel that I should get behind him.

On the other hand the only redeeming facet of the vigorous ball-washing from the Sky commentary team was that it effectively cast Hamilton as the spurned girlfriend in the distracted boyfriend meme. It does young drivers no favours when they are measured up to ridiculous expectations like getting pole on their first race mere hours after they knew they were going to be in the driver's seat. Bearman, assuming he enters F1, might slot right in, or he might be like Massa was in the early days - really quick but all over the place. Or he could be LeClerc who looked like he was going to play Prost to Verstappen's Senna, but has never lived up to that promise.

Bearman does know how to sling a car, the thing we need to look at during this weekend is his adaptability and pressure tolerance. All he needs to do is to keep his nose clean and finish the race without looking like he doesn't belong there.
 
Right Marco is staying. Horner has been found not guilty in any way. The Toto and Susi investigations was concluded with nothing dodgy going on.

Can we get back to talking about the sport only now F1 media?

And Stroll is in the wall.

Why are the Saudi's allowed to call this dangerous purpose built track a "street track"? Road America, Watkins Glen, and every other "unsafe" American track are all far closer to Grade 1 than whatever this track is.

Saudis have a thing the Glen doesn't have. Money.
