Yes, yes it was. The announcers shiting on Forza was funny AF.
So was the iRacing lobby my friends were in. Even with all the fuckup do to netcode they finished on the lead lap in 6th for their class.

Id say Mick Schumi as he is very close with Totto. Maybe competing at the WEC this year will help with seat time.

Would be funny if Alonso went to Mercedes though.

I do and I don’t. I really like what he had been doing with Williams, and having a driver like him I think, will be key to their future development of their program. But he does deserve a seat at a big team.

Mick seems to always be at the top of the list. The list of present day drivers that could fill it is getting long. As much as I like Mick a lot as a person, being the son of a great driver and available immediately for Merc Im divided if he would be reliable to bring out the full cars potential all season long.

HaHa, the tought did occur

Wonder if it was also part of Lewis moving plan to get his personal assistant Angela back at his side that was announced / rumoured back in the first week of January?

I find he matured a lot this year with Williams and proved to be consistant and Good friend with George as well.

Well, that would be the reason I'm probably not watching any F1 until at least 2028.
