Alonso not even getting slowed down by gravel.
17 0 ReplyNot a good day for the Aussies. Bottas out with engine troubles, Ricciardo and Piastri getting torpedoed by Stroll.
12 0 ReplySo nice to have Nico alongside Crofty. I love the insight he gives, really adds a lot to the race.
7 0 ReplyI personally find him arrogant and grating. But he does have a few good analyses, I will say.
5 0 ReplyNot just insight, but also not afraid to push back a little against Crofty when he said Alonso's last stop was working out well. He corrected him by saying Alonso is making the most of a terrible situation. You don't see Martin do that too often.
Not saying Crofty needs to be 100% correct all the time. When you're talking for 2+ hours you're allowed to make some mistakes, as long as they get picked up and corrected. Like today. It was civil and nice.
