If the rain hadn't hit the track it could have worked out for ferrari - to be fair Lewis was on the bad end of some bad Merc calls last season so hes probably used to it.

Looks like Ferrari and Redbull have a bit of catup to do. Antonelli did well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Lewis getting lots of unwanted info from the pitwall was gold. I didn't get a sense of how the Mercs were doing. Will get to see if they are as mercurial as last year I guess.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Wow that was exciting at the end

[โ€“] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I swear the more chaotic a race gets, the more powerful Stroll becomes.

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago

He himself is chaos and so he's in perfect harmony with his surroundings.

[โ€“] [email protected] 20 points 4 days ago

Lewis is familiarizing himself with Ferrari strategies - "big opportunity missed there.."

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Bloodbath for the rookies

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Lawson crash. Bortoletto out. Antonelli and Bearman are the only rookies left.

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago

Surprised this Alonso fella hung in there for so long - not easy being a rookie in conditions like these.

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago

That shot of the two McLarens sliding left and right while Max just drives through on the road lol

[โ€“] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is it time for the rookies to crash again?

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I admit, I did write this after I saw Bortoleto and Lawson crash and not before

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Disappointed

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Haas has a different weather app for sure

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Press the button Hamilton...

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Fernando, the chad he is, taking his hands off the wheel when crashing.

So many drivers don't do that, and we saw with Ricciardo how it can end..

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Reflecting on the incident, having returned to the paddock on Friday night with his arm in a cast after a check-up in the local hospital, Ricciardo commented: โ€œI remember coming into Turn 3. I had already gotten into the corner and then saw Piastri, so it was either hit him or the wall.

โ€œWhen I hit the wall, I didnโ€™t have enough time to take my hands off the steering wheel, so the wheel came and hit my hand.โ€

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Yes I know that, his case was special, but in other cases not taking your hands off can easily end with broken fingers like Ricciardo

Place your bets: who will be out next on dry tyres on a semi-dry track?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Another rookie out ๐Ÿ˜ญ

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago

Alonso crashes. Another rookie out..

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Ooof! Alonso is out

Ferrari really set out to harass their drivers today

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Ferrari really set out to harass their drivers ~~today~~ the last decade

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

"Hold position until you clear the backmarkers" is actually a fair demand imo

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago
