Dutch GP to drop off calendar after 2026 race

Well. poop.

 

Here's one without the penalty box.

Not surprised they didn't go for a rotation. I read something several months ago that to maintain a track in F! condition is prohibitively expensive and without that annual race it is more economic to drop down a tier or two and hold more lessor level races.

 

The back and forth between these two....

Remember when George took out himself and Bottas then walked over to the Merc and slapped Valteri's helmet.

That's the real George Russell.

Reporters present for George's presser in the Merc hospitality suite say it was not an off the cuff answer but rather a very deliberate well crafted and rehearsed statement with Toto standing very closely nearby.

Typical F1 games.

Coulthard and Jordan suspect the agent for Perez is trying to negotiate a buyout but that Red Bull would be willing to honor the contract but not give Checo a car to drive if terms can't be reached. Either way Checo is done. 277 points behind Mac leading into the final race. Ouch

 

I've read that Perez's sponsors pay all of his salary plus give Red Bull $30M. I think the difference between 3rd and 1st in the constructors is around $20M. Plus Red Bull gets more wind tunnel time for finishing down the order. So, will they really kick Perez to the curb next year? I think Horner was being honest when he claimed it is Perez's choice.

 

Too good not to share. Oscar on the Oscar is like a cherry on a Sunday

 

Bummer for Ferrari (LeClerc, his car), but think (well I was) - how they were last year at this time, or the years before. 2nd in constructors is respectable. I just don't think next year Hamilton will help much. Sorry. My .02$. Carry on with fisticuffs and minor squabbling.

 

Never Mind the Bollards

 

3 grid place penalty for The Hulk , will start P7

Exactly......such a douche canoe.....

 

Crazy race today

 

Loved that comment from Oscar
