Just had a look at a GP my youtube flagged for me (San Marino 1991) which shows how different thing were back then, particularly around reliabillity.

Was a wet race admittedly (Prost spun off on the parade lap), but the McLarens finished first and second (Senna and Berger); JJ Lehto, in third, wasn't even on the same lap and Julian Bailey got his one and only career point by coming sixth...three laps down. Madness!

And people say it's boring and uncompetitive today😂

Interesting grid today, really hopeful one of the young Brits will manage the win, though I suspect George won't have the race pace sadly...a 1/2 would be epic though, preferably with a McLaren win but I'd happily take the other way.

I'll be pleasantly surprised if George is still leading after the first corner.

He does seem to think they'll have good race pace though, so who knows!

I'm just glad we're at a point where we are wondering what's going to happen to be honest.

Good race. Pleased that Lando made second and Max didn't really have to break sweat. George isn't quite as good as his swagger would indicate too prone to misjudgement.

I think the win was Lando's to lose until the first safety car, he'd already opened up a twelve second gap on Max in no time at all, and no doubt it would've grown bigger with the pace he had at that stage of the race. He'd looked after the inters far better than anyone else.

SC helped him in Miami, but cost him here.

Crazy how they've imploded after being right at the pointy end at the start of last season, always fun to laugh at Lance and his daddy though:D

Be gutting if they manage to get Newey because it almost guarantees they’ll be right up there with any driver that’s not called Stroll.

Verstappen is a cunt.

Don't normally watch Grand Prix but he's an absolute tit.  Petulant comments when told on his headset. 
He is going to cause a serious incident

Ruined what should have been a fantastic end to the race. FIA need to look at themselves, could see a crash coming from a mile away between the two.

They needed to nip it in the bud when he was the same during the battles with Hamilton but instead they let him off, his team never tell him he's in the wrong, and here we are again as soon as he's under threat again.

He's a racing driver that doesn't like racing.

Exactly, he is a fantastic driver however when he is in amongst the pack you can see his attitude towards respectful racing.

He was never going to just let Norris by but the movements in the braking zone were a clear warning as to what was coming.

Not only that but even after they were both fucked and limping round the track he still did all he could to impede Norris.

Just a plain view of his arrogance in that moment.

I think they'll put Ricciardo into the Red Bull for the rest of the season, Perez to RB.

Ricciardo who has been terrible himself? He's not even assured of a race seat for next season at a nothing team like RB.

The pair of them should be out of F1.
