Well, that was a very entertaining race!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Damn the mercs were quick at the end. We genuinely have 4 teams capable of winning

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Mercedes have the opportunity to do something quite funny here.

Fuck yeah. Do they play the Star Spangled Banner if he wins a race, since he's basically American at this point?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Yuki NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :(

~~Are the stewards going to investigate that latest incident between Russell and Piastri? Seemed an unforced error from Russell, if you ask me. 5 second penalty, perhaps?~~

Edit: I said it!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I felt piastri was the one who bought his elbows out. Usually the car on the inside yields if they are behind in that corner

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

But doesn't the ruling also depend on who's ahead going into the braking?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Yeah. In this case both George and piastri were level. Giving a pen to either of them feels idiotic. Was just hard racing

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Norris needs to get back and give drs to piastri.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

I'm here for a ham podium!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

How can Piastri's tires be one lap older than Max's, didn't they pit on the same lap?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)

No more probably used in a FP session. Tyres used in quali usually have 3 laps on them - outlap + quali lap + inlap

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Yeah I think that's it, because I believe FP and quali are included in tyre age calculations when shown on the broadcast.

RB has got to be questioning their decision to re-sign that guy.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Red Bull have been making bad decision after bad decision since the horner sexual harrasment scandal. I think jos was right and the team is in disarray due to internal dissatisfaction with the investigation as well as all the politics going on

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Imagine a timeline where Jos Verstappen is actually right. What an embarrassment...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

My god is this race delivering - drama, overtakes, crashes everything

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (3 children)

We need sprinklers randomly going off on all tracks.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

We almost got road hazzards with the ballsy groundhogs popping up

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Pfft if you did that at Monaco, literally no one would finish. You'd have a Talladega Nights-esque ending where the drivers have to get out of the wreck and footrace to the chequered flag.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Hell wasn't far off what happened in Monaco '96. Only 3 classified finishers at that race.

I think it'd be hilarious, but Yuki wouldn't have a chance because he's so short.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

ALBON NO

Just isn't Williams' year this year 😭

It never is.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Sainz nooooooo!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

And there it is.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

You called it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Jeez Perez. Knocked the crap out of the rear of his car.

He's no longer a serious driver. Change my mind. Bring in Liam Lawson.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Tsunoda should be one if anybody in the RB family gets the seat

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I agree, but I don't know that he'd be allowed to switch teams mid-season.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Also, he's not the one bringing in the millions from Mexico

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Well he is contracted to red Bull so they move him around within their teams in anyway they want. Remember gasly and albon, max and kvyat

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I just wasn't aware of what rules Formula 1 had surrounding mid-season team switches. I only really got into F1 a few years ago, so...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

As long as all the parties are in agreement, there is no rules against drivers moving teams mid season. Sainz has moved teams mid season (Toro Rosso to renault) before and we also had de vries being let off last year and replaced with Danny ric

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Russell and Norris fighting each other is helping max big time

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

When the track dries up a bit more, max could be in trouble.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

I wouldn't be so sure. I think Norris lost a lot of pace after his last pit.
