F1 2023 stuff not worthy of it's own thread

Bottom post of the previous page:

Phone keyboards are not my friend. TBH, I doubt I would have been much quicker on a normal keyboard as like I say, Hawthorn was a real journey deep into the memory banks.

See now Hawthorn was one of the ones I thought of first after I'd done the bit I now very well. I can do from 1996 onwards in order, it was after that I had to start thinking about it. I remembered Mike Hawthorn and people like Jochen Rindt. Jody Sheckter was one I blanked on for some reason.

INDUSTRY EXPERT WARNS ASTON MARTIN COULD GO BUST

Not a PR campaign news one wants to see in headlines. The company, article states, seems to have this kind of track record with finances. I was taken aback when Seb invested (some 40MM) in that company. Let's hope for better ending and Seb getting his money back.

I could name them just by memory, from Farina till Verstappen.

I was always able to rattle off the complete list as fast as I can speak as long as I followed the sport. I did have trouble with the 21st century champions until quite recently, but really it's not that difficult: you only have to memorize the outliers (Alonso, Räikkönen, Button and Rosberg), the rest is Chinvettelhammy, always

Fixed.

I omitted Verstappen because my feeling is it will be Chinvettelhammymax, soon...

Very likely not wrong.
Unless Leclerc can minimise his losses plus win a few more in which case he MIGHT join the "outliers'.

Even now the press are giving this idiot time of day, unbelievable. He has no money, no friends with money, nothing.

Seb is on question time in the UK this week. Superb

But will he be wearing his 'jocks' on the outside?

Thanks for the heads up, muchly appreciated, but I actually did already know. I posted about it in the future of Vettel thread yesterday I will of course be watching it. Well, recording it and most likely only watching the Seb bits if I'm honest

Max won the award following his 2021 F1 title triumph over Lewis. (Honourable mention to Michael Masi )

Max beat American footballer Tom Brady, Bayern Munich and Poland striker Robert Lewandowski, marathon running legend Eliud Kipchoge, swimmer Caeleb Dressel - (who won five gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics) - and 20-time tennis Grand Slam winner Novax Djokerdik

Yea, it actually probably should have been Tom Brady.

Verstappen's first world championship will always be tainted.

Yeah, people will always remember he'd have won by October if hammy hadn't rammed him off the road in England

Yes there was that but then again Monza..... and that lap at Interlagos where he escorted Lewis to Sao Paulo.
At the end of the day though, it wasnt Max's or Lewi's doing that there was confusion.

The record books show Max was WDC. The same as Schumacher at Adelaide when he punted Hill out.

[MonteCristo]

The only way it'll matter (albeit only slightly) is if it's his only championship.

If Max wins some more, it'll only be a footnote.
