“Praise for the World Champion, James Hunt. He is of all the drivers the one that I like best. I value him, I am fond of him, he is the only one I know fairly well in private life. He is relaxed, easy and unworried. He does what amuses him, and I like that. All the quarrels between McLaren and Ferrari in 1976 never made any difference to James and me personally. We had divergent interests and each had to fight for his own side, of course, but that had nothing to do with us two men. He is a marvellous driver and brilliantly talented. When he is rested, he is the hardest man to beat.”

— Niki Lauda in For The Record (1977)

The streets are saying an ironic amount of us on Motorsports tumblr don't have a driver's license

For science, I just wanna know how many of you are being the funniest person alive when you say, "wowwww, does this dude even know how to drive?!"

⟶ F1 fans will remember Turkey [2010] and the infamous coming-together between Seb and me as we tussled for the race lead. […] Seb retired on the spot and spent some time making weird gestures meant to indicate it was all my fault. I managed to limp back for repairs, rejoin the race and claim third place. Immediately after parking my car I had to go into the mandatory FIA press conference before I had any contact with the team; I dealt with the questions as straightforwardly and professionally as I could, went back to the paddock – and found that I was being blamed for what had happened. The post-race debrief was interesting: we were minus one driver as Seb had been excused from attending! To this day I still don’t know why he missed the debrief, which is the essential conclusion to a race weekend. It’s a time for everyone to face the music from the various departments and that includes driver performance. I don’t think team management was particularly happy with either of us. After all, we had committed the ultimate sin in motor sport – colliding with your teammate.

bonus: "It’s probably the first time in my career that I’ve had a problem with a teammate, in terms of—well, when so much was at stake. But hopefully it’ll be water under the bridge by the end of the year."

#this is the only time i'll ever reblog sebm*rk but i want you to know #i made this happen with my mind #i watched this race live and i thought wouldn't it be funny if they crashed and literally one lap later they did #tw red bull #tw christian horner

[eliotheeangelis]

seeing the reason that newey left red bull is because he’s unsettled at the state of the team since the horner allegations came out like yes actually let’s circle back to that please!
