For which I’m still astounded over…
Have “watched”, Err listened to the past two
Formula 1 races in Austin and Mexico City from two different locations. For
which I must say overall, they both were somewhat “Dull”, i.e.; processional…
Recall how the current F1 technical regulations
were supposed to make it easier for the trailing car to overtake the leading
car?
Although think it was Herr Toto Crying Wolff’
who said this year’s championship would become a Qualifying race instead, Eh?
What most astounded me, and still did a week
later was Sky Sports lead F1 Pundit, Err Presenter’s quip about Circus
Maximus’s domination at the Circuit Of The Americas, where Max Verstappen led
wire-to-wire from pole.
As Kroftie’, ergo David Kroft incredulously said
that it looked like Max was out on a Sunday Stroll pushing the Pram, I Kids Yuh
Not!
Yet if that was what Max Blunderhead’s romp in
Austin looked like, then what was Lando Norris’s at the following Mexico City
round? As Lando spanked the Competizione by a whopping 32 seconds! And points
leader Oscar Piastri continued His Shrinking Violet act. Finishing a distant
fifth and losing the points lead to dreaded McLaren teammate Norris by one
point, Urgh!
Meanwhile the crowd seemed most receptive to
Verstappen, who you could hear the crowd roaring for during the closing stages
of the race. Along with getting the largest applause during the post race
podium interview. As who’d Ah thunk It?
As I still find it amusing when thee Mayor ‘O
Hinchtown’, ergo James Hinchcliffe conducts these F1 post race podium
interviews…
Whilst Ollie’, aka Oliver Bearhan deservedly was voted Driver of the Day upon His fine fourth place finish in Mexico. His career best F1 finish, driving for the smallest team on the grid.
