Sakae 0 Report post Posted August 9, 2018 Change of guard. Generations which came behind me have different values, taste, and general attitude to life. It's not better than mine, however it's also not worse, just different. Most importantly, its of their making, and it is expected that at some point we, grey hair men, step aside, and let it go of their future without regrets.

BradSpeedMan 6 Report post Posted August 10, 2018 23 hours ago, Sakae said: Never was. First from Horner about Alonso - "he needs psychiatrist"and now "chaotic". When I was suggesting similar remedy, forum went bust calling me the Alonso hater, as if a guy who was paid millions takes a beach chair, sits next to track during a race, and embarrasses on a global stage a hand which fed him: Is that normal behavior, or someone like that needs his head examined? I've been saying this for years and was also branded an Alonso hater. For years! I'm glad finally it is sinking in His last comment about Vandoorne having a lesser deficit than Kimi to him and henceforth is a better driver (read between the lines), is the comment of, as Horner has stated, someone who needs to see a pshyciatrist. Lets not talk about the state of affairs at Ferrari when Kimi re-joined and could'nt even drive the other car Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sakae 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2018 1979 Formula 1 world champion Jody Scheckter believes many have 'overrated' Fernando Alonso throughout his career, citing the Spaniard's controversial 17-year stay in the series. Wow, when I said that, I got pretty much scolded in here as a "hater". OK, maybe, but now Jody says the same... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be interesting to see how close it can do using the RB chassis next year. I can't wait to see how McLaren competes against RB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sakae 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2018 Quote Paddock consensus is that Fernando Alonso is, without doubt, one of the greatest drivers of the modern era, however many – including the senior management of the top three teams – would not touch the Spaniard because of the inevitable polemics he brings to a team. That's funny, because when I've said the same - he talks too much and what he says is mostly divisive and vitriolic, WWIII was on because of that opinion. Now when paddock came clean, all is fine.
