Did any of the top qualifiers not scrape a wall at some point?

On Wednesday night, Patrick shared a clip from the “Joe Rogan Experience” where Rogan debated Moon landing hoax theorist Bart Sibrel.

Patrick made it clear that she’s skeptical of the Moon landing that took place in July of 1969.

“This is def one of the conspiracy’s I believe,” Patrick wrote on Instagram. “I don’t care if you think I’m crazy. I already know I am.”

Politics and other insanity aside... there are plenty of other reasons why I dont want to see her doing F1 commentary.

Danica is not a good person. She had an attitude during her Indycar days and blamed everyone else for her lack of success even though she had a car capable of winning races.

Just like Bubba Wallace in NASCAR, a perpetual victim of one thing or another.

Perez just signed a two year deal with Red Bull so he is set until end of 2026. Sainz, Riccardo, Tsunoda and others that were eyeing Checo's seat are SOL. RB only wanted to offer a one year deal but it seems Perez got his way with a two year deal.

Horner really needs that sponsorship $$ that Checo brings in. Makes paying Max's salary much easier when the other driver is bringing in million$

A two-year contract for Perez for fax ache.. This is literally just about keeping Verstabbem (and his twat dad) happy.. by not being challenged by a decent teammate like Carlos .. Carlos really deserves that seat!

“Sharp F1 fans will recall him sporting some serious wrist candy on the podium and favoring Richard Mille’s technically audacious creations. This hints at a genuine appreciation for the world of horology, a welcome development for watch enthusiasts who sometimes find the F1 crowd disconnected from the finer things.”
Load of bollocks. He doesn’t favor anything other than what the team tells him to wear.

Exactly! As a Ferrari driver, he's not allowed to wear any other brand other than RM while he's conducting Ferrari F1 business. He may not even give a sh1t about watches for all we know.

I'm surprised Fratello would even write something that self serving. Fratello obviously knows how commercial sponsorships work in general, and in the watch industry in particular, assuming that Leclerc cares a whit about any watch is a stretch.

It's really more about the Benjamins brought in by Perez. Sainz is a good driver but doesn't have any claim on the RB seat.

I have nothing against Perez, but Sainz is a far superior and significantly better driver.

Unlike Perez, Sainz very successfully came through the Red Bull driver programme.

Horner does not want to upset his precious ones' little apple cart, by bringing in a significantly more competitive driver.

Red Bull does not need the tiny amount (relatively speaking) of sponsorship money that Perez brings.

Jos Verstabbem (daddy twat) would throw a wobbly at the idea of anybody, especially Sainz and his dad (who is still competing at the very highest level), challenging his special little jewel.

Apparently there is hail so bad at the track in Montreal that the commentary boxes have started to leak water inside and the stands have been emptied by the constabulary.

Not looking great for free practice at the moment.
