Just now when I see the title of an F1 article "Form Guide" under my feed, I almost laugh out load :) Do we need such thing?

Well it looks like Ferrari have already given up before the weekend's even started.

This race is so boring and it hasn't even started yet. I do have my hopes up for McLaren though

Be nice if both McLaren's can score points in this one.

What you think? A good opportunity for Renault to catch up to RB this weekend?

Another predictable race win for Hamilton. Hopefully what happens behind him with the McLaren's, Ricciardo and Vettel being back in 7th, can bring some action to this race.

That's because you are getting old Keith
Why can't they just show highlights instead of the race?

1988 would be better 😊

I watched it but it was painful. It is just hard looking at that track!!
Is it just me, or is there an uglier/gaudier track in F1 than Paul Richard?

I struggle to recognise where they are on the track most of the time.

99 had a decent championship fight, unlikely results and a win for Stewart :P

In the recent past, 2012 was a pretty good year. 7 different winners in the first 7 races of the season. Championship went down to the last race and was only clinched by VET charging through the field to 6th place in Brazil
It was also the last season that VET impressed me

Agree, although I think 2010 was the best of the last few years, 4 drivers competing for the title in the last race and one of the underdogs taking it

He overtook another car by going off the track, that's a very logical penalty. Like when Verstappen cut the corner to overtake Räikkönen at Austin one or two years ago.
The other one, rejoining and forcing Norris off track or whatever it was, that's probably more debatable.

I don't question this one, however the other was stupid. However, the 5 second penalty was enough to demote him to 11th (or at least 10th)

The first penalty is sort of understandable, the 2nd penalty i don't really get as it was on a straight and he was in front before the corner

There's track limits for a reason. Räikkönen decided to cover that side of the track, and he had it covered. Ricciardo has no right to leave the track and squeeze past anyway.
I just watched the first incident as well, and the penalty is consistent with earlier penalties (Vettel in Canada, Verstappen in Japan). So the stewards did their job.

Yet it is a real shame all F1 has left to talk about are the penalties. At least it were a rare few seconds that finally provided a 'show' again.
Watched Indycar at Road America later... That race had everything F1 is currently missing and has been missing for far too long.
