No. I really like him, actually. But he is not F1/Motorsport material, is he?

On the bright side, premier league starts in 19 days.
Btw exactly how long does a team holiday in this 5 week break, and how long are they allowed to develop the car?

You're kidding me right? Lotus is definitely one of the top teams, but I wouldn't say they are the "best car now and has been for awhile now". You are entitled to your opinion however. I'm just stating mine. I'm honestly not trying to be an asshole.

Huh? The top teams are very closely matched, however, Lotus have the edge. They continually miss opportunities making them look worser, than they are. Now that they have quali sorted (somewhat) you'll see them up there every race now.

I literally love how McLaren screwed one of their drivers royally yet AGAIN. They've done it to Lewis so many times last year and it led to all his on track shenanigans...

Great race for Lotus, fantastic 2-3 (again!) - if they haven't got the best/fastest car, they surely have the most consistant one. Kimi was flying at the end of the 2nd soft stint and on the mediums. He deserved the victory, but he just didin't had that extra thing (maybe it was KERS to blame too). Grosjean again proved he can do good races if he doesn't lose it in the first laps.

With all the respect I have for Schumacher (I grew up with him, watched him take 5 of his 7 world titles and made me watch F1 basically), but he should go home, I am afraid that the decision to rejoin F1 was a big mistake.
By the way things look, I think we will not see Mercedes in F1 next year, and if we will see them and they'll continue like this it would be the last year. They are simply going from bad to worse.

Now I have to figure out what I will do with my life for the next 5 weeks.
Kimi will win at Spa.
