Congrats Sebastian Vettel 2019 Brazillian GP winner

lol expert


At that point he was on fresher tyres than all of them but yeah I dont think he's ever actually won a race when I've put that so the curse continues :whistling:

He'll bounce back and win Abu Dhabi though :wave:

If he's allowed to race. He would deserve it to just stay at home for the weekend.

I believe he deserved at least 3 penalty points, as he keeps doing this

Because you HADN'T already got past, you putz.

I crashed into him because I didn't know he was there.

It's like the curious case of Benjamin Button. Each year he is drifting closer to rookie levels of inexperience. In 3 years he screams of excitement and fear every time he goes faster than 200 kph.

OMG I had made a Facebook post last year comparing him to Benjamin Button too. :lol: The more experience he gains, the worse he becomes.

idk, people are allowed to move over? It's just silly that he's doing it towards his team mate, but tbh this was going to happen at some point, they're both as stubborn as eachother and want to win, actually might make F1 interesting over the Merc/Ham borefest

It was a stupid move from Vettel, but is it any worse than this? LeClerc could have easily wiped out Norris. The difference is that Norris swerved to avoid a collision, whereas LeClerc didn't (not that I'm blaming LeClerc in any way).

This is very similar to this battle between Burger and Brundle at Hockenheim, watch especially the straight starting from 0:30 mark:



That sort of swerve to show the other driver to give you more space is something common in racing. I'm not saying it is correct etiquette, and it certainly doesn't suit the caliber of an F1 racer (let alone a world champion), but it happens when people lose their cool and let the ego take the wheel rather than the brain (been there, lol)

That's called giving someone racing room.

It comes down to two things:

1. Respecting the other competitors.

2. Racing people the way you want to be raced.

I've said it before, if you're racing side by side with someone and come across on them to try and intimidate them and the end result is contact because your opponent doesn't back down, the accident is 100% your fault.

What's baffling to me is why that is tolerated by the fia. If you're side by side the rule should be you have to keep completely straight

No wonder these dicks can't handle oval racing, they'd kill people

For me I think it's just a racing incident. Whoever is at front will naturally defend the position.
It's just sad it happened with teammate.

This. If you give other drivers a choice between letting you through and having a collision, at some point you have the collision.
