I think "fastest" may be the adjective you want. "Best" would surely be the one that is both fast and reliable, and thus able to win more points in the constructors' championship.
Yeah brain fart at my end on that one, edited it now, I did mean fastest.

Maybe nothing new for seasoned fans here but some interesting quotes I’d not read before:

I know Lewis has taken a lot of flak for his extra curricular activities and jetting around between GPs, but all seem in agreement that that’s one of the reasons everything is working so well for him now.

Ferrari have had the best car since the summer break, with Red Bull second since that period, when it comes to race pace. Qualifying is a toss up between Merc and Ferrari depending on which car the track suits. Best car is still Merc as they are faster than Red Bull in qualifying just about everywhere bar their bogey tracks like Singapore, and more reliable than Ferrari and Red Bull. In order to finish first you must finish, which Ferrari seem to have forgotten wink

Agreed 'fastest'.... and it looks as though that's been achieved by turning up the wick to a level that has over-stressed components. So the gap we now see is in fact what it should have been had they not done so. The real interesting improvement has been Red Bull on race pace, is that the aero in dirty air working better or a bit more reliable grunt from Renault?

Really interesting article. Makes you think twice about Q3. The view from the TV is Hamilton just goes out there and pops in fastest lap but the article gives a real insight into the complexity of it all.Great read!

That gnomic old tut is risible enough on Hamilton's helmet (be quiet at the back ) but on a Transit it is beyond tragic.

What gets me is why did Button break up with a beauty and go with a Essex high Street type?

That is abit weird.

Err. Can you direct me to a high street in Essex where the ladies look like that?

Just for research of course...

Ferrari have had the best car all season.

Lewis has never been number one driver in a tram before.

To my mind Lewis has never cheated or been underhand.

Lewis doesn't blame other drivers when he's been a pillock.
Is it a number 44 tram?

I'm not going to post photos of the two women on PH because that's a bit too "viz forums", or "daily mail website". It's low.
I'll just confirm their names so people can do their own research:

Jessica Michibata
Brittny Ward

Both women are ridiculously fit (like, triathlete fit) and both models. More or less female equivalents of Jenson.

Bit radical this but I'll give it a go.

People don't stay in relationships just because their partner is beautiful.
