Kubica looked pretty one-handed in the footage I saw. Not sure what Williams' game is.

I watch F1 personally and on two forums. On neither forum do I see a single word about what was essentially a gloves-off, no-holds-barred quali. I was fascinated to see who really had what, all this time in 2018.

Bottas certainly does not deserve that seat.

The GOAT was sublime in Abu Dhabi! He made it look easy. The qualifying lap was great and the race was controlled but for the positioning after the first pit stop. If his success continues unabated, he will eclipse MSC on race wins at some point in the 2020 season. Absolutely unreal!!

Hamilton really destroyed the field.

I have a suspicion the other teams are very worried now. Hamilton showed what real potential they had all year, but probably turned it down a notch for the sake of reliability.

I think using their new rim design made a big difference. The first time they used it, ham didnt complain at all about his tires. Then they reverted back to the old design.

Re: Review - Xtar D4 Charger

The car cover will primarily be for when I travel. Otherwise I'll get a wash in once every two weeks most likely. Maybe even use a pressure washer every week just to keep it fresh.
