One of the funniest shyte that I have ever read. If we were to go by Tax status to determine who gets Knighted and who doesn't, quite a lot of people would have their Knighthood withdrawn starting with Sir Richard Branson.

I don't know why People act surprised People hardly ever get Knighted? Giving Knighthoods out willy nilly cheapens it so it sounds about right that only the best of the best in their chosen field gets rewarded.

Heck Rugby and Cricket with the 2nd and 3rd largest sports following in the UK are not awash with Dames and Sirs either. Even amongst Olympians, they had to be the best in their Chosen discipline for years to come anywhere close to being given a Knighthood and rightly so. They should be content with OBE's, MBE's and CBE's.

Ferrari courted controversy in 2019 when rivals raised questions about the Scuderia’s much-improved power unit.

Blatantly accused of “cheating” by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, the FIA launched an investigation that led to Technical Directives being issued regarding fuel flow and oil burning.

Ferrari’s engine lost power and the Scuderia – as well as its customer teams – suffered as a result.

Months later, prior to the start of the 2020 season, after what the FIA called a “thorough technical investigation”, motorsport’s governing body reached a secret agreement with Ferrari.

As to be expected, Ferrari’s rivals were not happy and to this day want details of the settlement to be revealed.

One part of that may have just been leaked by former driver turned steward Salo.

Speaking to Finnish rally driver Sohlberg during a Twitch stream interview, the question of what went wrong for Ferrari and its customer teams came up.

Last year, all three Ferrari-powered teams struggled to match their 2019 pace, losing the most lap time of all the teams on the grid.

Soymotor quotes Salo as having said: “They suffered from Ferrari’s cheat last year because they had Ferrari engines and were forced to use less fuel, so I think so Alfa Romeo may be in a good position if they can perform at their best in the race this season.”

Murray Walker was a legend for those of us who grew up watching F1 on the beeb!

May he rest on a race track, in a race car!

Oh man! What. A. Race.
Some nail-biting final laps. Sir LH won this round but I'm sure there will be many more to come. 2021 F1 season off to a sizzling start.

Of course he had a choice, and he chose to give it up.

Can you imagine a Prost or a Senna or Schumacher giving it up? Season will end and they'd still be arguing it in court, lol, and even Hamilton would have said fuq off, which is likely why he's a 7 times World Champion.

The move - an order from race control - cost the Red Bull driver the victory. Verstappen never quite got close enough again to challenge Hamilton.

This season is just gonna be so crazy. Good for the fans or not? We shall see. cheesy

Max gets his first win. Congratulations. Nando did well too.
And the Bottas/Russel crash. Who was to blame?

F1 2021.

SIR LEWISSSSS HAMILTONNNNN!......The countdown to 100 continues.
Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by FBS: 2:36pm On May 06, 2021
Those 2 overtakes...wow.
Sir Lewis your head dey dia. Looks like he is really enjoying it.
Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by chic2pimp(m): 8:02pm On May 09, 2021
He only just gone and done it again. Imagine not being a Fan of Lewis and having to check the Sports News headlines week in week out and the first news that pops up is Lewis securing another win in Grand style yet again? Yep could not be me grin

Vamooosssss Lewis Win Numero 98 smiley.......2 more wins Big Man just 2 more wins cool
Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by FBS: 3:17am On May 10, 2021
Wow. Some hard ball strategy move by Mercedes but Sir LH still had a lot to do.
Red Bull thought he could only catch Max on the last lap but he did it with 6 laps to go, reducing some ridiculous 22 secs gap.
Awesome stuff.
Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by budaatum:
Poor Leclerc got Monaco Pole yesterday but will start in pit after affair with the wall.

Update
Leclerc will not start at all!

Final Result
As is usual for Monaco, it was so exciting one eye slept right through after Bottas' wheelnut debacle, though I did hear the Ham whinning when things are not going his way. Good to wake up to Adrian Newey on the podium at the end.

Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by chic2pimp(m): 10:39pm On May 23, 2021
Pretty mediocre result today but these things happen after all that's what F1 is all about. Got to take the Bad times alongside the good ones. As Sir Lewis himself said, things could have been much worse. With all that said, we meuveeeeeee!
Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by budaatum: 2:36pm On Jun 06, 2021
Tyre blowout for Azerbaijan leading Verstappen in lap 47 of 51!

Perez now second, Hamilton second, Vettel third.

Race red flagged on lap 48!

Re: FORMULA ONE F1 Official SeasonThread - Revamped by budaatum:
Perez wins in Azerbaijan!

Hamilton blows it on restart and finishes 15th!
