    I think Jacques had a legitimate concern, although I don't think it is egregious enough to call it a Magnussen!

    No worries , buddy .
    It looks to me like Chuck LeCluck just has a better handle on the red wheel than Vittles .
    Seb reminds me a little of Kimi at the wheel of the Lotus , where he said he couldn't feel the road with the steering having been changed to "by wire" .


    I love Jacques's candor . Say it like it is .
    And , he's right most of the time , but folks can't always handle the truth .
    He's got to be giggling about pussy Rosberg claiming he's changing his ways after claiming to be shocked at being compared to JV .

    Can you imagine the sequence of events that would have to occur for Bottas to win the title? The internet would explode!

    Bottas' race affirms un my mind what he should be doing if he isn't already ahead of Hamilton in the races. Be close enough to Hamilton to take advantage of any errors he makes. This is what I was talking about in Canada, and is what occurred last weekend.

    That's what we are already seeing right now, hamilton backing off for 40 laps because he can't overtake on the straight, and can't overtake somewhere else without risking being pushed off.

    All thanks to the fia who didn't have the balls to punish the dutch kid for his dangerous karting moves.
    After all those regulations to promote close racing and improve overtaking, the new rules would produce a fast procession you mean? The rest of the season would be quite boring in that case. You are quite right in your observation.

    The 2016 season showed us that anything is possible.

    It didn't. Rosberg already proved to be a tough fighter in 2013 when Hamilton moved to Mercedes, and we all remember the 2014 season where admittedly very error-prone Rosberg was already fighting for the title like mad. By then it was clear that he is a real deal. Moreover, in 2016 Rosberg wins the first four races establishing a points lead which I believe he carried to the end of season. On the other hand, it's not clear what "Bottas 2.0" could possibly do to bounce from the points deficit that he has now.
