I think there are some drivers that are harder on their car than others.
Kimi early in his career had an awful time with his mclaren while his team mate didn't.
Max might be in that class. Maybe they just push it a little more and that's why they are quick but pay for it with reliability.

Snoozeville this week. Indy Car last week was much better. Now to watch Indy Car from this week.

I would have loved to see it rain but I didn't think it was snoozeville. That's a true race track. Several areas for passing if you've got the car and a very demanding track for the engineers to set up the car. It isn't always wheel-to-wheel that makes a race. Indy 500 is like that for me as well. The track is often a bigger challenge than other drivers.

Indycar last week was good, and I normally hate ovals but that one had lots of action beyond driving in circles.

According to AutoWeek F1 is leaving NBC Sports and moving to ESPN in 2018

I forgot about this thread. Seeing Dave's timely post, I thought that I'd post what's televised for the next race

it's been reported that both Mercedes and Ferrari are loading the war chest to sign Verstappen.
I could see Hamilton retire after next year and hand the reins to Young max.

Before Lewis retires he is having fun . . . this is a cool video

I'll just quietly keep my mouth shut and stay out of trouble.

Hamilton is quietly big a significant resume of accomplishments.
He has now has a pole at every active F1 track.
