Kubica

Now it's being reported by PlanetF1 that Kubica is totally out of contention for William's seat. Too bad.

On another topic, who's the "ones to watch" for 2018?

I think Ocon for sure. Would like to see him in a top car. Does anyone think Bottas is still on the way up
or has he peaked already. He was after all in a pretty good car.

I think it's time to start the 2018 F1 thread.

At the top you have hambone, Alonso, vettel, ver-stoppin. Maybe a couple more depending on who you are arguing with.

Then you have the rest.
Bottas is like a massa or a kimi.
"Almost as good as .... "
2nd tier

Ocon is a cool customer. Almost always finishes the race, usually in the points in an average car. He's better than perez and not as DIRTY
Give him a good car and he'll be chasing the podium.


PS rumors are flying that hambone was hung over at the last race of the season .......

Man, if Bobby K is not in F1 next year, its going to be difficult for me to get excited about the season.

How can a fan say that without a full understanding of the programs Williams ran with all drivers and how the drivers performed?

Kubica's story gave me something to cheer for. I cannot get excited about the halo.

Oh I have been through the thousands of posts to that topic. I'll wait until the Williams PC announcement for confirmation.

Are you a poster there, nota?

Since he referred to Nico as "Brittany" in the past, I would guess that LH has some deep-seated masculinity issues.

It was Mark Weber who first called Rosberg, "Brittany" not Hamilton
