Goodness gracious. The Sky muppets are already irritating me before anyone’s even put in a lap
+1. They are on fine form tonight. Crofty/Crofto or whatever he is called and Ted prattling on about chicken and "jokes" about curry etc. Do they actually get paid for talking such drivel? Then a timely advert break as Lewis does his first fast lap. I know it is only FP1 but surely they can talk about the cars and drivers and track rather than their "entertaining" chat about nothing in particular. iandc said:

At least “Crofty” besides talking crap can actually commentate on a race. Kravitz is just childish, irritating, and brings nothing to the sport at all. You can cut the cringe with a knife when he’s trying to be funny doing interviews and the like. I try to be tolerant of people but there’s something about this guy that rubs me up the wrong way. Wish he’d get run over in the pit lane and put out of action for the remainder of the season. Nothing too serious. Broken ankle will do.

Good God Mclaren are nowhere. RBR and Renault are 1/4, Mclaren are 15th and 16th...
But haven't they shifted everything to 2019? Whereas the midfield is still tight so worth continuing to develop the car to some extent?If anything RBR have far more reason to swap their focus onto next year's car. They have a brand new engine with all the packaging issues that entails and they're in a solid third in the constructor's championship with no chance of catching second or being caught by third.

For a split second I thought there was an entire category of racing I’d never heard of. In reality it’s a bit depressing because it’s absolutely true.

Then do a better job! It’s not like Renault aren’t a works teammor mclaren have a big budget...oh wait
Renault were very clear that they knew it was going to take them a number of years to become competitive. I seem to remember that their stated aim for this year was to be best of the rest after the top three teams, which they seem to have just about achieved. Next year I guess they'll be hoping to close the gap to the top three but I suspect it'll be a question of aiming for a solid fourth rather than expecting to catch Redbull let alone Mercedes and Ferrari. Mclaren are just... Mclaren.
