The words I usedā¦ Vettel needs to go to a retreat where they teach patience. We all knew that was gonna happen against max.
Dan did good tho.
Also very happy ferrari/kimi didnāt give vettel that place at the end. He made a mess, he needs to deal with it.
For Le Clercā¦

Vettel is in the worst mental state heās ever been in in his career. @Wyvernās retreat suggestion is spot on. Since the faux pas in the wet in Germany he has systematically thrown this championship away.
That word from the FP2 report is still valid: Lewis dominated the entire weekend and deserves the WDC based on his form in the last 5 races alone.

Did you see the F bomb that Dan dropped after qualies. My heart just broke for him.
I did. That was heart-breaking to see. Every race I feel much better for him for leaving Red Bull and joining Renault. At least their car is reliable, slow, but reliable.

heās getting the crap car for sure, Christain made a comment on how Dan would most probably be having a quiet word with Cyril about reliability.
Iām not sure about that. RBR makes an amazing car, they really do, but THEY seem to have a problem adding the power unit to it.

Thought this was an interesting insert on Sky F1 over the weekend. Ted talking about onboard cameras. Strong confirmation that weāll have driver facing cameras next year, and that helmet view cameras are being worked on as well. Link: https://streamable.com/lhrga

Think itāll be a success?
Personally I think itās pointless but a nice gesture without actually addressing the actual underlying issue

I have to agree, even though do think females can do the sport, it will be a very long time before they are physically strong enough - its the same reason there are still so few female fighter pilots - I dont care how amazing you think you are, only so many of us, male or female can endure those gforces, and have the reflexes and eye sight for it.

I think it is awesome, i just hope they can get to the stage where it boosts women to be able to get their super license for F1
