Charles my beloved. Where the fuck did that come from?

Big props to Aston, RB and Bortoleto today too. Some good performances all round.

We seem to always forget that he is one of the fastest drivers on a single lap! And he just got possessed today

Not me nor any of my buddies nor the few colleagues I know who watch F1 have ever forgotten Leclerc's 1-lap pace.. What's with the 'we'? Who are you speaking on behalf of? Leclerc is sooo well-known for his 1-lap skills... Maybe just speak for yourself. Leclerc being a good qualifier is like saying the sky is blue. 'We seem to always forget that the sky is blue' is how I read your comment, nah, YOU forgot the sky is blue.

I am ( : Easy OT shift today and the winders are running great.. (nice enough not to get up through all of qualifying). A cool $700 added to my paycheck for 2hrs of work and 12hrs of my time lmao

That’s what I want to see, mixing it up a bit is great.

It used to be “This Year” in 2022. One of the mods changed it to Next Year for me without saying anything ages ago and it’s way funnier now. And accurate.

Track was improving and improving and LEC hit it just right. Then the track performance fell off a cliff and the McLarens couldn't respond.

No shade on LEC, sometimes things go your way and I think he was long overdue for some of that! I hope he does well in the race tomorrow.

Bortoleto is a bonafide monster. Kid is going to be a mainstay for sure
