2025 F1 General Discussion Thread

He's standing next to an F40. I love the F40!

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery.

Can’t wait for the radio comms between Hamilton and the Ferrari pit wall.

“I’ve got no grip man”

“…we are checking”

Had to check the thread title for what year it was when i seen Hamilton was back winding people up by…..wearing clothes!! 🤣

The tie is sloppy tied and the collar gap is defo not looked after properly. Would love to see the feedback of this twitterguy on it lawl

Each button represents a World Championship the British press believe he has won.

I thought the exact same thing. How hard is it to put your hands in the sleeves of the coat like. It looks stupid the way he has it on. Schumacher done it better.

Here is the picture of Lewis we have all been wanting to ser. Lewis in Red,

Ideal world for me would be Ferrari delivering a proper title challenging car in the next two years giving LeClerc a chance at unlocking a little bit more to win a title. Hamilton picking up a respectable number of wins but ultimately just helping LeClerc beat Verstappen(/Norris/Piastri?) before realizing he doesn’t quite have enough to win across a full season and setting off into the sunset.

Hamilton is clearly not going there to play the Sainz role but I think it’s better for the sport if someone like LeClerc closes the gap to verstappen.

I’m biased now despite being fully behind Verstappen in 2021. Have seen the odd poster here argue that Hamilton isn’t even in the “GOAT” conversation! He’s definitely a great as far as I’m concerned and would like to see him have some success towards the end rather than it petering out like say Vettel. At the very least, Ferrari and Hamilton is just a cool combination to see.

Agree. Of the three being rotated, Spa is the only one I'd like to see permanent and it's been precarious for years so maybe rotation is an option to secure it for the long term. Imola isn't suited to modern F1 cars and I was surprised it kept its slot when they only returned there originally because of covid messing with the calendar. Barcelona has always been a pretty boring venue for as long as I can remember.

I'm happy to see new venues like Rwanda and Thailand being given a chance, and will reserve judgement until we see how the events actually go.

It's a very wealthy country with lots of finance industry. It's probably pretty influential and gets what it wants. It has a pretty poor GP circuit which is actually across the border in Italy. But it wants a GP, so it gets one.

This decisions isn't for the fans. It's more about doing favours for the right people. Similar to the Saudi races.

The British media, as always, are in a knot over all of this. They seem to be painting it as a saviour is coming to Ferrari, despite Ferrari already having one of the best on the grid already.

It’s nice to see Hamilton out of Merc, he is in the twilight of his career and I’ve been vocal enough with my stance that he is past his best. A win or two will make this a success, his work will be cut out beating Leclerc though, who is only getting better and better.
