Most likely then that Pierre Gasly will get promoted from the Junior Red Bull team into the vacant seat left by Ricciardo at Red Bull. Only question is do McLaren keep Vandoorne for next season or replace him with Lando Norris? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeek Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Imo, he's not setting the heather alight in F2, but he is very consistent. Although it's worth remembering Vandoorne walked to the gp2 title in LeClerc fashion.Nyk Dear Vreis has been with McLaren for a while and shouldn't be ruled out. The oranje pound [emoji6] may come into the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not be to bad for him, McLaren aren't going to be at the front of the grid so the pressure for podiums is off while they aren't going to be dead last so still more than competitive for top 10's if he is as good as he thinks he is. 15 hours ago, Jeek said: Imo, he's not setting the heather alight in F2, but he is very consistent.

He's driving for the championship imo, not taking the chance and very much like Prost did, would take 3rd place rather than risk it all for 2nd, he's comfortably out performing his teammate in the same car.

However sette camara has had a lot of reliability probli where Norris hasn't had any.... Other than not being able to get the car off the line. When you look at the times both drivers have finished, Norris has finished ahead 6/10.He's a good driver, but I'm not sure he deserves the Sky f1 fawning.Also Sette-camara is partly responsible for one of the best finishes to a race I've ever seen at the Macau GP this year; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamaldo Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Force India have been renamed Racing Point Force India F1 for the rest of the season, losing all of their constructors points as well as it's a brand new legal entity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 They claim to still have Jordan's race wins and championship points, but it was definitely a different company who ran up the massive debts and went bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dindeleux Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Once again Hamilton showed his class today. No doubt some people will claim he got lucky with the track conditions but for him to be 3 seconds ahead of the rest on the final run before Vettel did his last lap and then 0.7 clear of Vettel in the end he has just blitzed the competition again. Ocon was quicker than Hamilton in Sector 1 of the last run and 3 seconds down by the end of the Sector 2. I really want Vettel to win the championship this year but Hamilton continues to impress.
