2020 Portuguese Grand Prix - Portimão, October 23 - 25

[Wouter]

Well, for the Driver Of The Day:

[LM10]

92 wins - we’ve witnessed history being written today. No matter if you hate or love Lewis, but you need to realize that we will tell people in future that we’ve watched that one driver breaking the record of most wins which probably will never be broken again or at least not in many, many years to come.

Another driver I particularly want to name due to his extraordinary performances lately is Leclerc obviously. I’m almost lost for words for what he’s shown recently. Bright future - the best part of that (for me) being that he’s at Ferrari.

Impressive feat for sure, but i would like someone to step up and challenge him. It would make him even greater, cause cruising to the title every year, takes something away from the achievement.

Yes, 1.8mm after the race at 4pm lokal time. The race starts at 1.10pm lokal time.

.
Ah. So it shouldn’t really come into play then anyway unless there are some delays.

I feel sorry for the poor people trying to pack everything up!

[Schuttelberg]

To whom it may concern.. “please retire!!”

Honestly, if Russell has to sit a year out for this guy it will show everything that’s broken about F1!

That is factually not true. Most of his teammates are world champions themselves! Also he beat a Ferrari 2 years in which Ferrari was the faster car quiet often.

Anyways... I really wanted to **KIMI** to have a point finish here. His 1st lap was the second most amazing thing for this weekend.

What an incredible drive from Kimi.

I agree! Also it's pathetic Hulkenberg can't get a drive.

34s gap to Verstappen.

Wow.

Verstappen only 9sec gap to Bottas in a Mercedes.

Wow.

Is that going to be RB's official slogan for 2021?

They try.... but one of his many strengths is that he just crushes any hopes of other drivers. Just look at Bottas the past few weekends. You can have a perfect weekend and you just know that he will come at you in that last lap in Q3 or worse, in the race. Rosberg had to retire because he couldn't do it another year and I'm pretty sure that Hamilton's relentlessness is partly to blame for the mentally drained Vettel at the moment.

He hits you when you think you have a chance....

[TwanV]

I think you're spot on Jolle, we're truly watching a phenomenon. What I miss though in coverage, is the background story of it. I mean.. He must be absolutely relentless in finding pace on the technical side of the sport. With MSc and Senna that was actually visible in their interviews. They're the legends we love because they were on top of everything concerning the sport. I'm sure it's the same here but with Lewis I feel we're always getting a dumbed down insight in how he operates during a weekend or year. "I really tried hard so I've won". More of the master please Mercedes.

Several years back, Will Buxton actually hinted that Lewis wanted it that way on purpose.

Rosberg did achieve his hope and dream though. Lewis is the better driver but Nico was close enough that one technical failure sealed the deal. I don’t think he really had to leave, he chose to. The rivalry with Lewis just one of the factors in that. There is more to making F1 tough than just the pressure of your teammate.

[Racer X]

Max said that Perez tried to go around his outside and did not give him enough space so he took himself out. But luckily he didnt damage his(Maxes) car.

I find it funny that he sees it that.
