It's obvious now that Kvyat will get the boot next season. Verstappen will replace him.
Horner sounded displeased, despite trying to hide it. He basically said Kvyat ruined their entire race and didn't sound particularly forgiving.
Yeah, I can't see him being around much longer. Sure he got a podium last race, but otherwise the entire season has been a mess for him. Ricciardo has been consistently up in the points and both of the Torro Rosso drivers have been performing quite well. If the rumored "worst of the 4 drivers being cut" thing is true, then Kvyat is in trouble unless he can turn things around quickly.
Having to listen to Crofty and Kravitz's "banter" is a special form of torture. The thought of Sky having exclusive rights in a few years makes me die inside a little.
Yeah, it's not good at all. Each race I'm missing BBC more and more. I wish TSN would have went with Channel 4's coverage instead. Brundle's great, but he doesn't make up for the rest of Sky being pretty bad. I'd way rather have Coulthard and Ben Edwards.
I think Bernie's days (in F1) are numbered, I really do.
He's pulled the old 'I'm just an employee' shtick during the qualifying fiasco and the teams ganging up on him and Todt is bound to have weakened ol' Gollum. All we need now is Ferrari to start moaning...
I'm starting to think so too. I've been watching old years of F1 and every year has its drama, but none of the ones I've seen (mostly post 2000) have had this level of hostility between the teams and the powers in charge of F1 outside of 2008. It's pretty depressing that it takes all of the teams banding together and all the drivers banding together just to stop Bernie and Todt from continuing with a qualifying system that has been universally been panned by the teams, fans, and drivers consistently and has brought tons of bad press to the sport. It feels like the tone-deafness of Bernie and Jean Todt is getting to a critical level that will not end well for either of them.
If things continue like this, the 2020 Concorde Agreement will be very interesting.
