Gutted, I was there last year. I’m trying for two next year. Either French gp or British Gp and Monza.
I’ll definitely return to Abu Dhabi.

Vettel joking about Baku. About time, or bad form to joke about such dangerous behaviour?

What was more telling was that Vettel acknowledged that he cocked up in Baku, but still maintains that Singapore was 'just one of those things' that 'happen' in racing.

His win in Brazil has helped him regain his sense of humour it appears

Enjoy it , Abu Dhabi, enjoy Abu Dhabi.
For fan mass enjoyment, silverstone wins hands down. Especially if a British driver is winning it.
Last year at Abu Dhabi I was almost looked at with scorn for getting out of my seat and cheering on LH.
Pretty much the whole stand was glamorous women in nice dresses taking selfies with their pretty boyfriends/wife’s.
God forbid actually cheering it on lol, fk em.
Nice place, full of plastic wkers.

Can I just say I'm very grateful to all who have started these threads through the year, particularly so for the tv timings.

This has been my come-to place for the tv timings, it is massively easier to find those here than any of the tv channel websites, which says a lot about people who design and operate those for a living.

It's also great for all the other info, championships positions, tyres etc.

So, irrespective of who does it first, I'm very appreciative and grateful. biggrinthumbup

No idea what thanksgiving is though. smile

Lots of LH fans watching practice yesterday. LH acknowledged our vocal support by giving us a wave at the end of the second session.
I expect Sunday will be a bit different though.

Can't help but feel that Croft needs to get off his arse and do some exercise.

His gut is obstructing the view of the sky pad screen just now.
