Talk about late to the party....
Most companies are dropping their policies as it's hurting business. I'm all for everyone in the gene pool but I don't think we need policies to force it down our throat. I want the best pilot possible flying the plane not one that was put there due to policy...

It's official Mick Schumacher will leave Mercedes F1 team after this year . I assume that paves the way for Bottas to take over that role .

These F1 race directors seem to really not have a feel for this racing stuff. It's like they've never seen these scenarios before.

Good thing Albons mirror fell off, cause it looked like the race was going nowhere.
I was falling asleep and cheering for KMag, so that mirror woke me up. |

It was a HAAS mirror that fell off.
All those safety cars, and penalties sure shook up the field. Amazing for Lando to score any points after getting a 10 second stop and go penalty.

Bottas was 2nd in a line of three cars heading down the front stretch . To me it didn't look like he had a run on the car in front of him . But he pulled out and quite wide and hit the mirror . I thought that was a really odd sequence of events . Williams must be over the cost cap with their 16th wreck of the season
 . The freshness of Colapinto has worn off . I hope Ocon has better racing luck at Haas .And what was up with Hamilton wanting to quit and park it ? Where's the heart of a champion ???? Pathetic if you ask me . Gasly drove a great race and how about Zhou getting the first points of the year for Sauber . Kmag snagged 2 points for Haas , quite the fight for 6th place in the championship . It looks like Max and Red Bull have their mojo back , they have found a setup that works . Perez may be watching on TV next year he can't buy a break . Yuki/Liam didn't look that great either . Long season now onto the finale.

Colapinto was not at fault at all for this crash. He was taken out but the crash of others.
It is strange that Hamilton was ready to just quit after Brazil, came back and did good in Vegas, then had some problems of his own, and some bad luck withe the puncture, and was ready to cry and take his toys and go home. He was the very luckiest driver for so many years. His great luck ran out some at that last race.

Im pretty sure it was Albons right hand mirror that fell off. Perhaps 2 mirrors fell off. |

It was Albon's right side mirror. In one video, the debris can be seen departing his car, and in later in-car videos, you can see it missing from his car.
Bottas ran over it when he pulled out to the right, trying to get out of the way of the leaders, who were lapping him.
