yes and yes 🤣 especially judging by ocon’s comments yesterday - it’s a friends to enemies vibe that still hasn’t let up!
Battle of the French boys.
1 is fairly quiet and does most of his talking on the race track.
The other is a stud muffin and loves the limelight and women 😂🤣

i love the phrase “stud muffin” 🤣🤣

they’re basically two halves of a whole and would complement each other perfectly, if only they could get along!!! we need to send them to couples therapy or something (i imagine alpine will, if they sign pierre!)

i just like the idea of pierre and esteban both discussing their love languages and making sure they give each other words of positive affirmation!

and in “this is brand new information” news:




interesting that the excerpts seem to say the deal was done at silverstone.

All the talk now is about the date he signed the contract with McLaren
just reading it! if it IS true that mclaren signed oscar on the 4th july and then had daniel address the garage to say he was staying a few days later……. that’s very messy and almost cruel on their part. daniel’s reactions throughout have seemed genuine to me, and it definitely seems like they were working behind the scenes while simultaneously having him say things or release messages to confirm he was there for the long run.

the oscar/lando dynamic is going to be VERY interesting i think, like we’ve discussed before.

(mclaren have a small merch sale rn and i almost feel guilty for buying one of their cool miami hoodies 😅)

Basically threw Daniel under the bus. Shady tactics, I didn't find the Alpine aftermath great on Oscar's part

It’ll be interesting to see what happens to him after his contract expires…. Surely he’s seen the way they’ve treated Daniel and thought tit, I need to perform….

So Marko has said now that RB won’t stop Gasly from jointing Alpine as long as certain conditions are met. I guess he means dollars.
Who will get the AT seat though? Who is the next young RB driver (if they don’t go for someone already on the grid)? Not sure I can see Yuki as the team leader over there though!

pierre and esteban friendship redemption season!

that alpha tauri seat is an interesting one. if it’s true that mick has given up his ferrari rights (can’t remember if that got confirmed!) then a move into the red bull camp might be an interesting one. juri vips was probably getting lined up but wrecked his own chances. does liam lawson get bumped up? i can’t see yuki as team leader either, he’s not ready, and that’s only if he stays. my money is going on mick tbh, but i’d like it to be liam.

If Valterri had made that strategy call Mercedes would have ignored him and not let him. Interesting they let George do it.

i thought that too! credit to george for being assertive. it’ll be an interesting debrief though, what with lewis just stalking past george on the footage. i like lewis for the most part but he’s such a sore loser.

happy for charles obviously but ferrari remain a complete dumpster fire 🤣 i don’t know what they’ve done to “improve” that car but, on top of everything else, they’ve lost the pace they had at the start of the season.

some weird stuff being said about the yuki situation. in the heat of the moment i was like THAT’S DODGY but having considered i don’t know if it was dodgy as such, but still a weird scenario imo. i wonder if there was something up and they tried to mask it by randomly checking his seatbelt even though he’d told them there was something wrong with the tyres?! weird.

Jenson said he'd have loosened his seatbelt with he thought he was getting out the first time.
