And he was lucky enough to drive the Lotus 79 ground effect car that was comfortably the fastest car around in the year he became champion.

Said it before...better to be Lucky than Good. Though he is/was both.

He was, his team mate not so much (the lucky bit) - he died after a huge accident at the Italian Grand Prix - still came second in the championship.

We have one guy. One:

But was he not born in Italy or at least a province of Italy at the time?

He was. But naturalized...and never left. Like my father and grandfather!

Let me have SOMEthing!!!

Go back further and you'll find Phil Hill, no relation to Damon or Graham...or Jimmy or Harry (UK joke!) for that matter.

Yeah, but who wants to hear anyone prattling on about a World War I fighter ace...? NASCAR sucks now, and IndyCar is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...it's why I stick to the ponies, generally speaking. Trying to rekindle my enjoyment for racing (read: watching a race) and hoping this little misadventure will help...

Don’t forget to add your projections for next week GP.

F1 Practise today, handy as I'm off due to Paddy's so will be able to watch and analyse before making the normal stab in the dark prediction.

Don't forget to get your race predictions in before start of Quali tomorrow

Oh how wonderful. Max’s engine is in limp mode in Q2. If they don’t fix that is P15 for tomorrow. How exciting he is out of the car. That will make it more interest in tomorrow.

Well that was boring as a bag of boll0cks. Ah well at least he with the bum fluff didn’t win and he doesn’t look happy.

 

[Andyk]

Gutted that Alonso has lost the podium with a 5 second penalty. :-(

very dull

Indeed.

 

[Andyk]

Really do not like these modern tracks.

The first half was quite exciting and the final laps as well with Ham/Rus and the Alo and Ver problems. Just because a Red Bull wins doesn’t mean it’s dull..but to each his own of course.

Just found it pretty dull no matter who won to be honest. Maybe it was the track as well.

The safety car converged all of the strategy’s and took the spark out of it. Nevermind.

 

[midlifecrisis]

Again the FIA affect the race result with Petty nonsense.
They must have been Traffic Wardens in a previous life.

 

[Andyk]

Alonso has been reinstated to 3rd. Thank goodness.

5th for me. Did anyone change their team for this race. I left mine standing by my convictions.
