A real loss to Sport and a big hole in our hearts. Courageous, chatty, and extremely funny. I am going to miss you being around the @F1 paddock but the legend of Niki Lauda will live on, because you were a very very special man. Thanks for all the memories #3timesWC @SkySportsF1

This evenings F1 esports race was the first time ever that I have had to do left foot braking for a whole race, it didn’t quite work out today but did lead for a bit. Foot is killing me now! #dontlikeleftfootbraking @SkySportsF1 @F1.

Things could have been so different if not for that rather spectacular F3000 crash at Brands. I will never know.
Youngsters know @johnnyherbertf1 for @SkySportsF1. But he was also a fine driver, winning 3 GPs. Indeed, prior to a hugely injurious F3000 shunt at Brands #OnThisDay 30 years ago, he was as quick as any man, any place, any time. Pic: Johnny's day of days, #BritishGP victory, '95.

What a day, What a race. .
Red Bull is a superb #F1 team. But it used to be Jaguar, & before that it was Stewart. Well, #OnThisDay 20 years ago a remarkable thing happened. JYS's fledgling outfit scored a 1-3 at Nürburgring, @johnnyherbertf1 taking the win & @rubarrichello 3rd. A great, great, great day.

Doesn't that say it all. Drivers abuse it but only because they were told by Charlie that they won't get a penalty, others do it. Nothing. but penalise another for the same thing. Stewards have rules they must apply and gaining an advantage is a 5 sec penalty. A contradiction?

@alex_wurz @Max33Verstappen Not correct Alex, the problem is that all the drivers drive outside track limits which is not a skill. That's called track limit abuse.
