Pleased to see that both Hamilton and Vettel are both carrying on their social awareness work on women's and LGBT rights in Saudi. I saw a whole bunch of comments from fuckwits along the lines of "I bet they won't do it in Saudi later this year".

When LH already has a track record of doing so, and has no qualms about blanking even Putin, why would anyone* doubt that they'd continue in Saudi?

I quite like this new track, bar its location in a cesspit but follow the money they must... It's like a modern version of how Monaco should be.

Track looks mad on the onboards, like it's been sped up. Surely a few safety cars on Sunday though? Probably from Max and Lewis coming together...

Yeah, a bit gutted that Max clipped that wall as he was on a flyer - but clearly has some pace
Lovely to see the relationship that Lewis and Bottas have (when they were interviewed after quali)
Really looking forward to the race, it's a mental track

F2 race was a bit of a shit show just now. I think Saudi need to invest in some of those overhead cranes a la Monaco for next year. They keep having to wheel out a recovery truck for each crash.

FFS. MV winning the title may just have been decided by Michael Masi.

It all feels very underprepared for cars crashing, almost as if they rushed the building of the circuit

Max is a dirty cunt. I hope his race ends with his car in 1000 bits.

Something really needs to be done about Verstappen before he does someone serious injury.

Max slowed down on the racing line rather than move off it. That’s my opinion

That was ridiculous though, in so many ways. Masi is just too involved, negotiating with the teams and all that. Just doesn't seem right, wouldn't have happened in Charlie's day.
Anyway, at the end of the day, even points going into the last race is the correct result so I suppose that's the main thing.

So crazy! Got a sore head from watching that. Glad Lewis finished ahead.
