He binned it at Long Beach, and I swear he bunged the car up elsewhere but was able to keep going - Detroit, maybe? It was a street circuit in any case. But maybe I'm thinking of O'Ward.

Again, no sure why the hate at saying he's mental though. Like Rossi at Indy, he's entertaining. Clearly the kid can peddle.

HISTORY WAS MADE IN TORONTO TODAY!

Will Power was outqualified by MAX FUCKING CHILTON.

Edit: Since Will is an Aussie, maybe that should be out-koala-fied.

Will Power needs hang his helmet up and take up market gardening if Max starts beating him

That goes for anyone that Max qualifies ahead of. In fact, fuck it, Motor racing should just be cancelled. Period.

Maybe The Captain thought he got a good deal on an F1 engine and gave him Dan's Renault Pony engine.

Not good!

Said before that I've met him behind the scenes and he was incredibly nice.

But he is an incredibly emotional driver. A aggressive version of Hamilton when he is in a sooky mood. Can fully understand why people don't like him.

I must confess I have seen his nicer side a few times in interviews, but they seem to be overshadowed by by a sooky sense of entitlement aura he often projects..
