If we ever needed more proof about how much of a twat Lewis Hamilton is:



He's probably going to get worse now that he's banging the all plastic Kim Kardashian. Maybe RocketPoweredMohawk will get his wish and she'll drive him crazy like every other guy that gets involved in that family, turn Trans, and go for his 8th World Championship in F1 Academy.

Quick drive-by post, no link, Gasly given third place at Monaco, replacing Hadjar.

Pitlane speeding penalty?
Were any others reversed?

Shame for Perez the most, though. 5 races in & Cadillac's first points, lost by 7 seconds due to a false start [10 sec penalty] on the restart.

They can’t do anything about the penalties that people served during the race. They got screwed.

Here's a full link, but for the TL;DR, this is the final Monaco standings as only Alpine challenged the results within the 96 hour period.

Gasly’s Monaco third place reinstated on appeal

Pierre Gasly has been reinstated to the Monaco Grand Prix podium after Alpine successfully lobbied the stewards to rescind his pit lane speeding penalties.

Gasly (pictured above getting the good news in Barcelona) finished third on the road in Monte Carlo, but a pair of five-second penalties for speeding in the pit lane demoted him to seventh after the race and promoted Isack Hadjar into his place.
He was one of five drivers to receive a speeding penalty – an unusually significant number – in a spate of incidents thought initially to be related to the reshaping of the Monte Carlo pit lane this season. Alpine, however, lobbied for a right of review based on what turned out to be faulty data relating to the length of the pit lane.

Pit lane speed is measured by a series of timing loops that calculate average speed down the lane. However, the stewards found in their review that both the FIA and Formula One Management (FOM) were aware that “the distance used in calculating the F1 official timing (and hence the pit lane speed) was inaccurate” and thereby incorrectly estimated Gasly’s speed.

The report stated that the measurement used to calculate speed was out by 77cm (30.3in). Gasly had originally been found to have been speeding by 0.1km/h and 0.4km/h (0.06mph and 0.25mph).

“We welcome the decision made by the FIA to deem our right of review as admissible following the final classification of last weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix,” Alpine said in a statement. “We would like to thank the FIA and Formula One Management for [their] transparency and co-operation throughout the right of review process and for reaching this decision.
“The team’s focus is now very much on this weekend’s Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix and striving for the best possible result with both of its cars.”

Gasly, who was distraught at the end of the Monaco Grand Prix, thanked his team for fighting in his corner.
“Been a rollercoaster of emotions the last few days, weird celebrations, but most importantly, incredibly happy we got our result back,” he wrote on social media. “Huge thanks to my amazing team and all the people who supported us!
“Thanks FIA & F1 for the transparency of the situation. One to remember!”

Gasly moving back to third place strips Hadjar of what had been his first podium for Red Bull Racing and just the second rostrum appearance of his career. Oscar Piastri is bumped down to fifth, with Liam Lawson classified sixth and Arvid Lindblad seventh.
The successful right of review will be cold comfort to George Russell, whose catastrophic drive-through penalty that left him scoreless stemmed from him and his team improperly serving a five-second penalty for speeding.

Oscar Piastri lost three places serving a speeding penalty during the race, while Lewis Hamilton managed to hold onto second place by serving his penalty during the first safety car.

Gasly’s teammate, Franco Colapinto, had his five-second penalty applied post race, though he finished out of the points.
The stewards findings relate only to Gasly’s penalties as Alpine was the only team to protest the result.

Nice to be back on a track with passing.
Also had strategy as a big issue, but ultimately Lewis probably had this with raw speed once he pitted first and committed to a three stop.
Having the Mercedes teammates beating on each other helped keep it interesting and Kimi's DNF makes the points situation back into a real competition.
Leclerc didn't do himself any favors, even though a mechanical issue was his final undoing.

Not a big Hamilton fan, but he deserved this win and took it. I love that someone had the balls in modern F1 to take an extra pit stop and spend the entire race driving the wheels off the car instead of being afraid of tire wear.

If Lewis keeps this up he'll silence most of the haters.

Also not a Hamilton fan, but happy for him, and the 2nd all UK podium in my lifetime.

Add: Apple doesn't make it easy to go to the sky sports broadcasts. Have to save each, 1 by 1 for the season to get reminders. I keep losing where to find it. Unfortunately can't go back and watch the single driver broadcasts on replay. I would've liked to rewatch Norris' race.

Did you see what it was that ended Hulk's run? Crazy, from what he posted.

To get to Sky feed.

I use the AppleTV app on my Sansung TV
Go to F1 section of Apple TV
Scroll down to the tile for the specific race
All the SkyF1 sessions should be in a single group

For Friday sessions I usually use the F1TV website, on a computer. Glad that still works as an option. Had a few feed crashes on Friday when trying to switch off F1TV to the Intl feed amd audio.

I've sniped at Lew with the best of them, but that was a helluva race and they/he seem to be coming into real form.

Ferrari being strong is good for racing, and if there are 3-4 teams all in the mix it could get really interesting. I like it!

The F1TV app still works as well as long as you link your Apple TV account on your computer. Once they were linked I never tried the Apple TV app.

Saw a couple clips. Crazy odds, up there with a spring to the helmet. But even less likely.

I listen to a couple F1 podcasts. I'm not sure if it's the grumpy old(er) man in me or the seeming increase in frequency, but the insipid stupidity of people like Tom Clarkson wanting to stir the pot with topics like "Is Lewis now the team leader?" or "Will Ferrari ask Charles to take on a 2nd driver role in support of Lewis?" or "Toto can't allow George and Kimi to continue to race each other!" is just maddening.

I know it's all entertainment but thank God they've added Hinch and JP to the F1 Nation podcast for some balance and common sense. I don't miss Damon on this either!

Maybe it's all just an extension of the British tabloid culture carried over into F1? But come on, Tom is the guy tasked with asking the drivers questions as well. This driveling fodder for drama is the best you can do?

P1 [former guys from WTF1] is the only F1 podcast I follow. Matt & Tommy seem to keep it pretty level.
