Well, Russell won in November 2022 but Charlie wasn’t given his fancy helmet until 2023. Was it still GSTQ until the coronation?

No... "The Queen is dead, God save The King".

Wife has been there for about ten minutes now, still hasn't changed!
What a shame!

Here's a pic of the white sign anyway (slightly hard at night).
We'll go tomorrow.

Shame.

Please thank her from us nerds. Grateful for her efforts.

Derek...

You just had yourself a very good race didn't you

I'm surprised just how pleased I am.

Some friends have congratulated me. Why me? I've got a buzz from the whole race.

[Big Nanas]

Busy there, a guy has driven up in his McLaren, and its very busy!

Well you've been very patient!

It was a very exciting race, watching to see if he could do it.

Typical of Ted to be 2 steps behind the PBCDs on PH.

It's such a miserable national anthem. Made even more so by it now being about Charlie rather than ol' Liz.

Why can't we have one like the Italians? Even the Welsh and Scottish ones are inspiring and nice to hear.

18:1 on Bet365 for a Lando win….. glad i backed him

Welsh and Scottish is the UK anthem same as England and Northern Ireland. We have a few English themes such as Jerusalem.

I agree but... It's kind of set in stone. Are you suggesting we change it!?

At least it's not as horrific as many others..

England is not Scotland, nor Wales.

Get yourself on youtube and check out their anthems, it will blow your mind.

Lando's dad is a class act, and Hamilton has told Lando to stay over. Feels like a genuine post race buzz about this result, something F1 really needed.
