I’ll never forget this moment of bonkers:

I feel lonely

    It’s going to be nice just to see Danny Ric’s name back on the timing sheet.

    Give that man a respectable result and I’ll be satisfied regardless of what else may happen ❤️

    As for the question: Button '06 is easily one of the best moments from Hungary!

    That is one of the iconic images from one of the best seasons ever. That photo alone could be shown to prove how crazy good 2021 was

      That whole race was crazy start to finish. Bottas bowling, lights out only for LH, Verstappen fighting for position with half a car, Hamilton campaigning up the field, Alonso defending like a madman to secure Ocon’s win. So many good moments!

    I think this post 1997 Damon Hill almost sums it up quite well.

    Was amazing to watch at the time and heart breaking for Hill. Mansell’s win from 12th that they mention was also really good.

    Driving the Hungaroring in Assetto Corsa is hella fun. Its full of hard corners, so we’ll see how McLaren and Aston Martin handle this track. I cant wait!

      I had a quick play in the Exos, man that’s a whole load of fun. Very tricky!

    Weirdly, as a VER fan, I really liked the 2019 one where HAM won on strategy.

    Edit: My fandom feelings were already satisfied by that first pole, I guess.

      Well you have got to acknowledge that Merc played their strategy perfectly and Hamilton executed it well even though he was bitching about it the whole time. It was crazy that even then Verstappen and Hamilton were so quick that they finished like a minute ahead of the Ferraris in 3rd and 4th

        Yup, perfectly executed by Merc and HAM.

    The 2006 race was quite interesting: Button got his first win, Alonso retired after getting a penalty in a practice session on Friday, Kubica finished in the points in his first ever race only to be disqualified afterwards, while BMW got their first podium with Heidfeld. Then 2009 and the incident with Massa, obviously. Ocon’s win in 2021 was totally unexpected, but the race was dull.

      Are you thinking of the left right swerving they do to warm up their tyres?

      The best way to enjoy this season is to pretend Verstappen doesn’t exist and treat 2nd place like 1st. By that metric it’s a banging season!
