On this day 18 years ago Pele failed at the one job he had, waving the chequered flag at the end of the Brazilian GP :xd:

That was hilarious. Too busy talking to people to notice the race winners flying past.

I’m far more on Senna was a loving idiot for trying that side of things. Ferrari was super insane that era especially if you believe Barnard’s stories of the team panicking and wanting to severely under-fuel the car on races where they didn’t think they’d finish, them ignoring a black flag just seems like par for the course there.

I believe it. Benetton did the same thing.

Also presumably you don't come in the first lap you get black flagged because your team will be appealing it and you have 4 laps to pit.

Senna is dumb.

The best Red Bull is no Red Bull at all. Have a Lewis Juice instead friendo.

The best energy drink is Hell Energy, which used to sponsor Williams I believe (before they were that far back the grid). The basic flavors (classic, and the two extra caffeine ones, red grape and apple), they have a very good mango flavour, and their limited editions have all been at least decent (the pear wasn't great, but not a pain to finish).
Best Red Bull was the lemon-lime one (Silver IIRC)
Best Lewis juice is the mango one

While I'm not all that sympathetic to Senna, stuff like this made Nigel Mansell really hard to like. What a bonehead.

It was like Ocon vs Verstappen at Brazil, Ocon didn't give a gently caress and went for the risky move- Verstappen had a lot to lose and did not have to squeeze Ocon but did it anyway and threw away a victory.

He sent CPAP machines which actually help spread the virus.
