They say that the measure of a man is in how he accepts defeat.

Russell drove like a winner, should have won, deserved to win, and didn't pout about it. Sure, he was gutted, but didn't tell the world that he would have won. Besides, anyone who watched, already knew that!

Lance could have won ... if Perez and Ocon took each other out in the final lap!

The only way he has ever made it on to the podium is when most of the competition DNF. And that is not likely to change in the future. This is a Canadian saying so. For him to say that the race was his to win ... what an idiot. Disrespect for the much superior drivers on the grid, and the misfortunes that took many of them out of contention. Luck is a part of racing, but it cannot be on the top shelf of a driver's toolbox!

AGREED!!! The response from Russell was done with respect and grace while Stoll sounded like a pouty, spoiled and entitled rich kid!

I am not a Max fan. He can be such a jerk and a crybaby at the same time.

This is actually the rear wing - the rest of the car got pushed down into the asphalt and you cannot see it anymore!

Williams must have really been on its last legs before being sold - for Claire to not make any changes to the 2019 car for this season, when last weekend made it abundantly apparent that the car truly is a POS.

Qualy Day Yas Marina!! Its on!

danegrey · 12-12-2020, 10:48 AM

Max got the pole, now this might be an interesting race
Bottas
Hamiliton
Norris
Albon - a bit closer to Max only off .325, really wish that RB says yes or no to him.....

Hotrodz · 12-12-2020, 11:22 AM

Fun qualifying. I wonder if RB turned up their engine. Now let's see if it will be reliable for the whole race.

Good Morning F1 Fans. It's the last Race of the Year.

Let's hope it a good and exciting one.

Charles with this design today honor Seb

DLSTR · 12-13-2020, 12:07 PM

Ferrari F1 this year -

Hotrodz · 12-13-2020, 12:22 PM

Congratulations to Max and RB. I guess I got it all wrong RB didn't turn up their engine but MB went the other way.

Boring race no matter who wins by more than 10 seconds!
