I would usually be one for supporting the underdog and I'm no great fan of Hamilton, but Verstappen is a really unlikable character, he would run over his Da without a second thought if he thought it would win him a race, or an extra point.

However that absolute hateful hoor Horner manages to make even him appear benign.

He's absolutely no different than the likes of Senna or Schumacher who were at least as ruthless. Called being a winner I guess.
Wouldn't say there was a Friesian milked in Friesland last night!

Jos Verstappen is a thug and says a lot about Max character that he's still as close to him.

It's a big assumption but I'm gonna say yes.

Seems to be pretty close to her too.

He seems to have a weird affinity for his parents.

I actually liked Schumacher, haven't watched F1 since he left.

Could someone explain why, after the safety car is over, that the cars don't just start off again with the time difference they had before the safety car came on?

Because reasons.

As a matter of interest why are there no women in F1. As it's just about driving with no reversing or parking involved you'd think they should be able to compete ok

Hadn't heard this about Jos, why is he a thug/asshole?

I was a big Schumacher fan back in the day but prob switched off F1 about 10 years ago. Started taking an interest again last year when the netflix series came out. When I first started hearing about Verstappen again I had assumed it was the same guy that drove 15 years ago.

Really warmed to Hamilton recently too. The way he dealt with the post race was amazing. I couldn't keep my calm so i don't know how he could remain so humble, credit to the sport.

I'd take all that with a pinch of salt.  It easier when you have 7 in the bag, and he got a good taking to before he made any public statement.

A couple of years ago Bottas was ordered to let Hamilton pass late on in a race that Bottas was winning comfortably, as Hamilton was going for the title and Bottas was out of the running. A few races later, when Hamilton had secured the title, he was leading the race with Bottas in 2nd and the favour was expected to be returned. Lewis said no chance. Afterwards he said Bottas would prefer to win a race fair and square, while Bottas was fuming.

Bottas since learned that his only role is to play second fiddle and settled into that. It's going to be very interesting to see how Russell gets on next year, Hamilton does not like it at all when his teammate is competitive

To me the Bottas incident sums up Hamilton better than his recent PR drive.  He's very driven, very selfish, very fast, very successful
