Isn't Verstappen the guy who was recently whingeing about Hamilton celebrating on the podium while he was having a check-up at the hospital?

Correct

Incredible photo that first one. I haven't seen that one until now. Sends chills up your spine.

Edit: For sure he would be in a box now without that halo device.

The picture came from the Times, Just got todays copy and there are some superb details pictures of the crash, unfortunately I cannot copy from a print newspaper.

The Verstappen/ Hamilton crash. F1 won't allow embedding here so you'll have to watch it on YouTube.

Both Verstappen and Leclerc start at the back of the grid in Russia due to engine changes. Saturday is forecast to be wet, Sunday I don't know. Verstappen will do his best to climb the grid during the race and with his aggressive style, I think 50-50 there will be an incident.

Could be an interesting race, especially if it's wet.

Crashhappen and Red BS taking the back of grid penalty for the new power unit nullifies his 3 place grid penalty - utter cr@p IMHO. His grid penalty should be moved to the next race.....

Should be a good race today though with that starting grid.

#100 for Hamilton, and a heart breaker for Norris.

A first here in that four have tied for 1st, and four have tied for 2nd in our pool. Dai L would have tied for 1st as well had he made his picks before qualifying. Congratulations to everyone!

Over to Turkey now in 2 weeks time. Don't be confused by the Superbru sidebar schedule as they still have Japan on the same date as Turkey. Good luck to all!

Now that I have lost Fox Sports does anyone know of a good free streaming site for F1? Thanks in anticipation.
