monaco-gp

[thin berry]

Are we sure it was intentional though

[mystic cradle]

yessir

hello guys

[snow swan]

Two secs tes

[snow swan]

Its hard to say it wasnt

He was driving erratic as hell if it was innocent and if it was then whats the issue

[stoic wolf]

Carlos gave zero fucks today 🤣
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLeas4fw/

Absolutely. I am surprised though because that was tame for typical Yuki freakouts

[hardy crypt]

i cant believe i got all excited by mclaren saying they basically cooked up a near race winning car during preseason thinking theyd at least get a podium in bahrain

[naive ice]

finally back from the bahrain gp

the race was so much fun

[hardy crypt]

i got my hopes up too high

[stoic wolf]

How were the vibes

[naive ice]

very nice but also surprisingly cold considering bahrains usual weather

also after the race there was a DJ and a party

that was fun as well

[narrow garnet]

They always contextualised it with bahrain not being a strong track, and still got decent points anyway,

remember this is a team who usually starts at the back and climbs back through the season, so to even be top half at the start of the season is a pretty good achievement, we've now got 3 stronger tracks coming and major upgrades potentially at China

[tiny geode]

If it weren't for max woulda been a close race

[stoic wolf]

F1 fantasy points are up

[snow swan]

between perez and sainz

also not rlly perez was 3 seconds clear of sainz

can someone tell me what happened to tsunod

he was in be 10 for a while

[stoic wolf]

Yeah I wonder why sainz didn't push a bit consistently earlier

[snow swan]

10*

[stoic wolf]

He did say at one point that he had more pace

[snow swan]

true

[stoic wolf]

I think he cut a whole second on the last lap

[snow swan]

but this is a good start for perez

[woven spear]

lance (s)troll

[dense canopy]

that danny and yuki situation in the end was interesting

[wet sequoia]

Nothing interesting about it, just a big question mark over it

[wet sequoia]

He had to pit and never got pace again

[light viper]

at least haas wasnt last :D

[clear light]

What a interesting start to the season red bull leading McLaren in a good place as well alpine unfortunately last atm it’s already looking like a interesting year even though it’s only the opening round

[little badger]

what’s your highest

[lime valley]

Why does Sargeant still have a seat?

[stoic wolf]

303

[little badger]

wow

[narrow garnet]

https://twitter.com/KKirkwoodRacing/status/1763954893901992217?t=qsh7Dp8ZLyYBiWQCAiEMeg&s=19

Wtf did Logan's steering wheel smoke?

[meager dock]

My girlfriend called me verstappen because I finished too quick

[icy walrus]

nah

[meager dock]

They should just finish the season already and announce max as the winner

[narrow garnet]

Because the wheel glitched on him and set his BB to over 95% front bias with no input on his end

[lime valley]

Sure, but what about qualifying and it's always something.

[stiff bough]

what about it

car had awful balance on his last q1 lap so he couldn't improve

tyres probably didnt get into the right window

[lime valley]

I'd love for him to show what he can do. I'm just seeing another year of average and unlucky at best.

[left beacon]

Anyday trust Toto than Ferrari

[icy walrus]

I though hamilton was gonna get out in Q2

until that last lap he overtook tsunoda

[zealous summit]

as if you have one.

[icy walrus]

thatz epik

[meager dock]

I’m a red bull fan ofc I do

[icy walrus]

bs

[meager dock]

I do have one

[icy walrus]

the only team that so good is mclaren you red bull and ferraris are just rich bois

nah im only playing we want no argueing

but mclaren top 3 of all time no cap

w

[fallen junco]

mclaren ferrari and rbr

[icy walrus]

yes

#1 mclaren #2 rbr #3 ferrari

[tawdry viper]

well... whoopsy lol

[icy walrus]

bro did you miss the race

[fluid pike]

Wtf happened to alpine I'm kinda late to the weekend

[icy walrus]

they suck

only need 2 words

not the drivers but the cars

ocon gasly top drivers but there car this season is just bad

[narrow garnet]

Jos has thrown down the gauntlet

https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/horner-jos-verstappen-red-bull-f1-team-risks-torn-apart/10582527/

[eternal rose]

Pffff

just his dad complaining mindlessly

he's done it all the time throughout 2021

[chrome sundial]

Yuki bein a twat

[indigo rock]

He was complaining about Daniels pace too after the switch 😭

[chrome sundial]

We keep forgetting hes got 64 race starts under his belt

Cannot be acting like that

[indigo rock]

Honestly I could see Daniel getting a better seat after his contract tbh

[snow swan]

Fascinating how he was wearing an actual team shirt today, too

What a goon

Sorry Max, your dad sucks

[sleek mountain]

Why did I get timed out

For 2 hours

[sly badger]

I'm believing Williams switching to a fully integrated steering wheel with screen meant they had some software errors

[sleek mountain]

What did I even do to get timed out

[narrow garnet]

Tbf, the team really should have switched back when it was clear Daniel wasn't going to make the move, but yuki could have handled that way fucking better

[tawdry crater]

Yup they did him dirty

[rough ore]

Yuki being a twat because he feels threatened with Lawson waiting in the wings for this shot

[tawdry crater]

its his right to be pist about it

ricardo got a shot dindt make it

had to give it back

if you want them to work together this isnt a great way to start the season off

[slim chasm]

yeah well, thanks to Yuki blocking him for 5 laps lol

a little punishment for Yuki to remember by

[uncut yoke]

that’s going in the dts clips for sure

[sudden star]

I swear i woke up in time for the race

Saw max had a 1 second lead after the 1st lap

Went back to bed

I already knew it was over

[regal lintel]

Jesus christ

[opal siren]

It sucks

I was being bothers by a friend

[summer crescent]

I just woke up

So Max won as expected…

[vernal holly]

https://fxtwitter.com/rosbergcore/status/1763998466739429580

[hollow sorrel]

Who would've thought 😂

[tawdry viper]

i slept through it since it was at 2am

just watched the whole thing now and that was one boring race

[sharp veldt]

atp this might fr happen

[vivid cedar]

woah there dont hate on my beloved yuki

[sudden niche]

I’m wondering why even swap positions for P12

[sudden niche]

Well let’s not pretend Seb hasn’t had his moments of uhh

ehem recklessness shall I say

[slim chasm]

Zhou was only a few seconds ahead of Kmag on old hards and any trouble in the top 10 would mean points

[sudden niche]

Well Danny Ric was slow asf

After the swap, but I digress

It maybe did seem like the right move

[slim chasm]

well, Yuki wasted a few laps of his prime tire window and Kmag caught up to Zhou so he got slipstream

[sudden niche]

Well in any case I do hope this of a one off

Though tbh I expected a lot more from the VCarb

DannyRic said they’d be fighting for podiums

[craggy zenith]

Bahrain is a bit of a strange circuit to begin with

so any teams not being where they expected could be put down to it just being a strange track

when we get later into the season we should get a better view of what each of the cars is capable of

Tsunoda was on the fringes of the points for most of the race, while Daniel admitted to be struggling with the car throughout Qualifying and the race

part of why it doesn't make sense to swap the cars around even if Daniel had more pace at the end

but if this is how it's going to be for the rest of the season, this won't bode well for Tsunoda

he clearly doesn't perform well when he gets upset like this and it could throw him off

[pearl crest]

Who was driver of day sainz or perez?

[agile relic]

sainz

[copper zephyr]

Sainz

[rocky thistle]

did ferrari really ignore sainz's 3rd palce finish at the pit lane?

or is it over exaggeration?

[stiff bough]

they were just behind all the red bull folks

[mental wyvern]

Is Yuki at fault or just poor strategies?

Test

[sudden niche]

There were definitely quite few

In terms of mechanics and staff

They didn’t ignore per se

[remote knoll]

?

[sudden niche]

But I definitely observed

[stoic wolf]

They didn’t ignore him but they weren’t crazy hyped either as much as they would’ve been if Charles won

They were oddly posting mostly about Charles on social media at first too

Then saw the hate and pushed a bunch of Carlos content out

[mental wyvern]

I didn't get to watch the race last night (my dad is using the tv to watch football)
Look up at a post abt yuki didnt let ricciardo pass,some said he's immature some said its because it was too late to let ricciardo pass

Passed

[stoic wolf]

Which I guess isn’t the craziest thing for a team to favor who’s staying with them but it’s not like Carlos made the choice to leave or something. It was their call at the end of the day.

[remote knoll]

Ah team orders

[mental wyvern]

So is it Yuki s fault or who

[stoic wolf]

For what

[remote knoll]

not really

[mental wyvern]

Or none of them were at fault

[remote knoll]

what happened after the race was unacceptable tho

[stoic wolf]

The cool down lap was Yuki’s fault lol

[mental wyvern]

Abt carlos?

[remote knoll]

Ricciardo didn't even have the pace to pass Magnussen

[stoic wolf]

100000%

[remote knoll]

they were setting the same lap times

[mental wyvern]

See this is why it confuse me

[remote knoll]

Ricciardo and Yuki

no reason to switch them imo

[mental wyvern]

Some said he's at fault some said no

[remote knoll]

but i cant understand why he did that on the cool down l,ap

[sudden niche]

Like, when he got out of the car, there was no visible pile of red and Sainz Sr had to direct him to some mechanics were

[remote knoll]

that is fucking silly

[remote knoll]

well some have different opinions

[little aspen]

Yuki was gonna overtake

[mental wyvern]

Ouh its a cool down lap

I see

[remote knoll]

i hope he apologizes

cuz that is not okay

[stoic wolf]

Daniel had a slightly better pace in that specific moment so it felt like a last ditch effort because Yuki wasn’t able to pass Mag

[remote knoll]

eh he really didnt

the laptimes were similar

[little aspen]

Ye

[remote knoll]

once he passed Yuki he didnt set any better laptimes

[mental wyvern]

Ok lets move on to the sec gp!

Im not that excited wht is the "!" Right there

[stoic wolf]

It felt more of a try to see if it works sort of thing from RB because Yuki had spent some time trying to pass Mag and couldn’t

[remote knoll]

maybe RB could've let Yuki back pass

that's probably wishful thinking tho

[stoic wolf]

Would’ve could’ve should’ve I guess

I love how Ferrari asked Carlos to let Charles pass and he was like fuck that 🤣

[little aspen]

But it takes time and he was closing on mag

[remote knoll]

lmao

I wonder what was going on with Charles' car

[stoic wolf]

Some braking issues I think

[remote knoll]

something stuck in his brake duct or something?

[little aspen]

That's what Yuki should have done

[remote knoll]

wouldve been better than what he did on the cooldown lap

[stoic wolf]

Yuki still has to play nice. Carlos is out of there so can say fuck that 😂😂

[little aspen]

True

[slim chasm]

Maybe if Yuki play ball in the first place lol

[dusky lark]

maybe some weight imbalance since it was turning one way during braking ? like one brake was stronger than the other

[jade mural]

Congrats @dusky lark, you're now on lap 5

[remote knoll]

fair enough

[sudden niche]

When??

[remote knoll]

that's actually a fair point

[remote knoll]

that's weird af

Charles is so unlucky 😭

[stoic wolf]

It wasn’t on my stream so not sure. It was on my friend’s stream.

[sudden niche]

Probably a brake pressure issue

[dusky lark]

yea just hoping they can fix it within the next 4 days

[stoic wolf]

Might have been the F1 stream instead of the ESPN one

[sudden niche]

Probably a private radio or not real

[remote knoll]

I hope Carlos can still beat Leclerc when his car isn't shit

[sudden niche]

I doubt it(?)

[remote knoll]

and strategy doesnt fuck him

[sudden niche]

I have doubts about my doubts

[remote knoll]

but that's asking a tremendous amount from Ferrari

[remote knoll]

lol

[sudden niche]

After realizing that Charles is better than Carlos

[stoic wolf]

People have been mending it so who knows

[little aspen]

I hope Carlos can get some more podiums before he leaves ferrari

[tiny geode]

I'm guessing even tho Ferrari have improved tire wear it's still not as good as red bulls

[sudden niche]

This performance told me otherwise

[remote knoll]

Charles needs to borrow Carlos' luck

[sudden niche]

Dude Carlos is following Alonso’s exact career path

And yet Carlos is a lucky charm

While Alonso is a bad sign

[remote knoll]

lol

[tiny geode]

Cuz he's a smooth operator

[little aspen]

You mean carlos's aggressive attitude

[remote knoll]

smooooooooth operationn

[stoic wolf]

Fair enough. It did seem like Ferrari was preoccupied with getting Charles on the better strategy rather than Carlos so who knows

[remote knoll]

You think Leclerc needs to be more aggressive?

[little aspen]

So true

[remote knoll]

on track or towards Ferrari?

[little aspen]

Ye

[sudden niche]

Ferrari kept having Charles undercut Carlos

And Carlos had to overtake Charles for position

TWICE

[remote knoll]

that is trueee

i forgot about that

[tiny geode]

Absolutely, if it were Carlos ahead earlier on with leclerc behind they would of gave team orders

[sudden niche]

Not under team orders either

[tiny geode]

He had to fight past Leclerc twice lol

[remote knoll]

tbh i need to rewatch this race (god help me) because i zoned out multiple times

it was so dull

[sudden niche]

Just watch whenever Sainz is on screen

[tiny geode]

Awe i thought it was great

[sudden niche]

That’s really the only interesting bits

[stoic wolf]

Which is why I love Carlos and am excited for this season where he doesn’t give a fuck anymore. We’re gonna get to see his best racing.

[remote knoll]

I rate this Bahrain GP pretty low

[copper zephyr]

Sainz was brilliant yesterday

That overtake against Leclerc

The sparks

[stoic wolf]

Twice on the same turn 😮‍💨

[tiny geode]

No fucks Ferrari Carlos is all I wanted last season

[copper zephyr]

Smooth operatorrr

[lament slate]

I think he have more time to race then Lewis. Ferrari not make good decision

[copper zephyr]

True

[little aspen]

Sainz showed he will do amazing this season yesterday

[stoic wolf]

I’m hoping he gets Merc next year because I wanna see Toto + Carlos chaos 🔥

[copper zephyr]

Oh hell yeah

Pls

This

[sudden niche]

I remember him saying that he drives best when his future is secure

[tiny geode]

That would be poetic justice

[little kestrel]

The fact after lap 30 the game became so boring as nothing new was changing drastically. Only car problems for everyone but RB and Mclarens.

[little aspen]

That would be some beautiful chaos

[stoic wolf]

Toto + Carlos with a decent car might actually be good enough to go up against Max

[remote knoll]

lol

[little aspen]

Actually true

[remote knoll]

ehhhhh

[sudden niche]

How?

[copper zephyr]

James Alison too

[remote knoll]

lets bring it back a little

Max is in a league of his own

[tiny geode]

Ehh I'd say last 4/5 laps order definitly seemed settled but before that lots was up for play

[sudden niche]

What can Carlos bring that George don’t

[remote knoll]

i don't think Carlos is worthy of going against Max

[stoic wolf]

Key word being a decent car. Not the ick that Merc have this year.

[copper zephyr]

Atleast he competes with Perez

[tiny geode]

Come on... Merc got 3rd in qualy and was doing well until the engine troubles

[copper zephyr]

I don't see anyone coming close

[tiny geode]

battery troubles*

[copper zephyr]

True p2 raised hopes

[little kestrel]

Yeah in terms of extreme changes but there was still changes in the mid lanes until lap 30.

[sudden niche]

Ah speaking of merc shitting the bed

[remote knoll]

lol

[copper zephyr]

I think ham made a bad call when he set up for race not for quali

[sudden niche]

Did Logan lose power from his merc engine??

[sudden niche]

What happened????

[tiny geode]

Yeah.. people need to stop shitting on the car just because hamilton does, I feel for those poor engineers that made a great car

[copper zephyr]

No he had a brake lock up

[little kestrel]

No he locked up. Skill issue

[copper zephyr]

w15 is the best car we had in the last 3 years

[remote knoll]

im not sure what happened to Logan tbh

someone said his wheel malfunctioned

[copper zephyr]

Brake lockup bro

[remote knoll]

I was wondering the same thing

[tiny geode]

Yeah it's a great car

[remote knoll]

cuz he just stopped on track after the lockup

which is not what you do lol

[copper zephyr]

I literally wrote a journal on this stuff trust me on that

[tiny geode]

Logan got distracted thinking about where he's going to go next

[copper zephyr]

W11 tho

[little kestrel]

From what I heard he locked up in the turn.

[copper zephyr]

He was thinking about what the hell is a kilometre

[remote knoll]

his brake bias went up by 35 clicks

[remote knoll]

it's what happened after that

[remote knoll]

supposedly

[dusky lark]

yes but a lockup doesnt make you stop on the middle of the track for 45 seconds

[remote knoll]

right lol

Im glad someone has realized

[copper zephyr]

They had a yellow flag, he came back somehow so he wasn't out

[tiny geode]

Golden age Mercs were amazing, the best probably

[jade mural]

Congrats @tiny geode, you're now on lap 5

[copper zephyr]

They thought it was over for him

So he stopped

[little aspen]

From what I saw Charls got something in his brake

[remote knoll]

that's-

[copper zephyr]

My god 🙏🏼😭

[little kestrel]

Yeah if that was the case then he would have pitted and get mechanics to fix the issue. But it didn't happen. He continued on racing.

[remote knoll]

He did pit

[dusky lark]

he did pit like right after

[little kestrel]

Oh did he

Shit I didn't see

[copper zephyr]

They thought he was out of the race then

So he stopped

[remote knoll]

none of this explains why he stopped on the track lol

[dusky lark]

such a strange case

[copper zephyr]

But he managed to come back

[dusky lark]

i think we wait for williams to explain what happened 🤷‍♂️

[remote knoll]

yea

[copper zephyr]

Because he's Logan fucking sargeant after all

[tiny geode]

Anyone else super curios to see how the overheating issues are exacerbated when we go to a hot track?

[remote knoll]

..

[frank delta]

jsut watched the highlights, bruh the gap from 1 to 2 is like a whole pitstop

[remote knoll]

yes

[copper zephyr]

Im excited to see how the brake lockups are fixed

Russel

Leclerc

They suffered a lot

[tiny geode]

Leclerc was wild

[dusky lark]

piastri as well i think

[copper zephyr]

Interesting that max didn't lack for a second

[little kestrel]

Yep it is a domination year. So focus on who gets P2.

[tiny geode]

Looked like his BB was turned 100% F

[tiny geode]

Did you see his Section 1 times?

[copper zephyr]

Yeah

[jade mural]

Congrats @copper zephyr, you're now on lap 5

[copper zephyr]

Absolute domination

[copper zephyr]

Can I box ?

[remote knoll]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lrQebj8A_Y

look at his wheel

ah right

no embed

[little kestrel]

More likely and I am hoping as the year goes by Mclaren if they keep the quality of their upgrades they had like last year might have small chance of shot to be dominate the top 5 with Merc, RB, and Ferarri.

[copper zephyr]

Rb
Ferrari
Merc
Mclaren

That's the order

We all know don't we ?

If anything I trust fred vaseuer and Zac brown

Sorry if I mispelled them

[dusky lark]

i think the biggest fight this year will be merc-mclaren-aston

theyre gonna be the closest over the season

[tiny geode]

We allowed to post reddit links?

[remote knoll]

his shit failed

[little kestrel]

Yeah I trust Zac. He is very honest on his takes.

[remote knoll]

yea

[copper zephyr]

Aston need to be better tho

[tiny geode]

https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/comments/1b4x10f/max_verstappen_incredibly_consistent_first_15/

[copper zephyr]

He is the next best thing after Gunter in dts

[tiny geode]

Marko probably uses those times as viagra

[remote knoll]

lmao

[little kestrel]

Not gonna help if Lance is not keep the pace of Alfo

[dusky lark]

alonso was holding up decently yesterday

[copper zephyr]

His car wasn't the best somehow

It happens sometimes

[dusky lark]

lance made a mega comeback from 20th to 10th after his spin so i think theyre not looking too bad

[copper zephyr]

Let's see next gp

[tiny geode]

Fought like a Lion as usual

[sudden niche]

His spin???

Bruh mf didn’t spin

Nico ran into his rear

[tiny geode]

Aston didn't take the step forward they needed too tho

bunch of other teams did

Hopefully with Astons new facilty coming online they will pump out better upgrades

[sudden niche]

I don’t doubt it

[remote knoll]

Surely they will

yeah

[sudden niche]

We’ll see though

[remote knoll]

Proud of Mclaren

they made a huge step up from last season

[sudden niche]

Lance and Nando are both at least capable of banking points

[tiny geode]

I'm very excited for that, papa stroll went all out on the toys in the new factory

[sudden niche]

FINALLY NOT 17-18

[remote knoll]

lmao

[dusky lark]

lemme check cus i was so sure he just spun on his own and nico ran into him while he was spinning

[sudden niche]

POINTS IN THE OPENING RACE

WOOOO

[remote knoll]

calma

Mclaren P2

[sudden niche]

Bruhhh

[remote knoll]

in constructors

incoming

Yeah Nico made him spin

[tiny geode]

Sooo nice to see Mclaren fighting again

[remote knoll]

just a lap 1 turn 1 incident i guess

like Martin said

[sudden niche]

Yeah

[tiny geode]

Williams too

...fucking seargent

[dusky lark]

he span on his own bc of the curb

[sudden niche]

Nico wanted to go for a points paying position and Lance was unfortunately stuck in the middle of turning

[dusky lark]

nico just hit him because of the sudden change in direction

[tiny geode]

Mag must be sweating his seat atm

[sudden niche]

???

[remote knoll]

Sargeant did nothing wrong in the race just fucked his qualifying

[remote knoll]

He is turning into the corner?

[tiny geode]

O fuck that reminds me... funniest fucking line in F1 history "He's driving by brail"

[dusky lark]

wait no nvm

it just looks like that from stroll pov

[sudden niche]

He was braking and turning??

[dusky lark]

i watched hulk pov and he def hit him mb

[tiny geode]

Forgive the cursing, I'm from nova scotia

[sudden niche]

Watch Nico’s PoV

[remote knoll]

you can't look at one pov 💀

in an incident

[sudden niche]

Yeah ok

[dusky lark]

i meant like he was backwards not in a normal corner

[remote knoll]

It's fine we all curse

[sudden niche]

But in any case how tf did Lance grab P10 anyways LOL

[dusky lark]

yeah mega comeback from stroll

[tiny geode]

Didn't get enough credit for that

[sudden niche]

That’s what I’m wondering

[remote knoll]

fr

[sudden niche]

I saw him in dead last and I was like

Already writing it off as a failure

[tiny geode]

Or is the bottom 5 teams that weak..

gonna have to rewatch

[sudden niche]

Ngl

I doubt it

The bottom five all made steps forward

Except Alpine

[tiny geode]

But top 5 made a leap

aha true wtf Alpine

Maybe the engineers are on strike

[dusky lark]

alpine took 25 steps backwards

[sudden niche]

For what it’s worth, Alonso only finished P9 so

[dusky lark]

the alpine technical chief resigned after yesterday's race

[remote knoll]

lmao

what is important tho is that Ocon beat gasly

[tiny geode]

Yeah, but AM is the bottem of the top 5

[remote knoll]

qualifying and race

[sudden niche]

Sounds like France

[sudden niche]

Yeah but I expect them to get better

Though their competition is pretty good as well

So we’ll see

[tiny geode]

Yeah, new engineers and factory will take time to fully get up to steam

[slim chasm]

it's not even finished yet

the factory and recruitment

well maybe the recruitment

[tiny geode]

They started moving in after monaco last year

[winged flax]

what happeend to sargeant btw

[sudden niche]

Maybe the top 10 will only have the top 5 teams for forever

[slim chasm]

the first phase of the factory, yes

[tiny geode]

Ran out of talent

[winged flax]

funny but fr tho

[sudden niche]

The running belief is that he locked up but really his engine overheated

[winged flax]

oh okk

[sudden niche]

A lockup doesn’t stop you on runoff for 45 seconds

And if it did Perez would’ve gotten P2 in Vegas

[tiny geode]

Yeah ...seemed more like a 10 second fuck up fallowed by a 20 second reflection on life

[sudden niche]

Bruh be real here

[tiny geode]

lol that mother fucker was pondering life

[stable comet]

If you watched his onboard, you can see the B-Bal shoot up by 35 which forced him to locking up. What happened after that, I'm not certain on. However, I'd bet it was some wheel issue.

[tiny geode]

I'm sure "Why am i here" went through his head at least once or twice

[stable comet]

He probably thought his race was done after the B-Bal did that.

[sudden niche]

Nah all Merc customers had engine cooling issues

Somethings cooked

[stable comet]

Albon was having wheel issues as well.

[tiny geode]

I wonder how long it will take to replicate Red bulls new side cooling intakes

[sudden niche]

You mean the giant shoulders?

[tiny geode]

Yeye

[sudden niche]

I mean, visually it’s pretty easy

[tiny geode]

You'd think

[winged flax]

yea

[tiny geode]

good thing he sat there not letting any air into his engine

[sudden niche]

Well either engine or wheel, either way nothing that I think was his fault

[winged flax]

there was "car too hot" on the screen

[winged flax]

unfortunate i was looking forward for him

[sudden niche]

Oh tf you have his onboard before it?

[tiny geode]

Only one way to cool those engines, gotta get airflow

[stable comet]

There was.

[tiny geode]

Albon had it as well i believe

[sonic epoch]

Logan drove well until the mechanical issues came

[winged flax]

no i looked it up just now

hehe

[stable comet]

He was up to 14th and had overtaken Ricciardo on track.

It was a pretty solid move, too.

[tiny geode]

That's good, he needs to get fiestier

[sudden niche]

Rip merc customers ig

[stable comet]

Unlike his half-assed attempts we saw last year, he decided to finally get his elbows out.

[tiny geode]

Yeah, wtf

[remote knoll]

it's funny how many people just ignored that

[tiny geode]

someone needs to tell him his opponents need freedom

[sudden niche]

Can I see it?

[stoic wolf]

Daniel is washed unfortunately

[stable comet]

I'll see if I can find it.

[sonic epoch]

Daniel wasn't even that good in Renault

[winged flax]

alpine

[stoic wolf]

Hey hey hey I love Daniel just as much as anyone else but it’s true

[tiny geode]

Yeah true

[sudden niche]

Ok actually false

[stoic wolf]

His career died the second he left RB

[tiny geode]

He was amazing

[remote knoll]

I know Logan is the most unimpressive driver but at least consider the factors that took place

[remote knoll]

that is not true

[sudden niche]

Renault Danny was basically Honeybadger in the wild

[tiny geode]

He outdrove the shit outa that car

[stable comet]

That's not true in the slightest. He was the only driver to consistently beat Hulkenburg, and absolutely demolished Ocon.

[winged flax]

prob just biased opinion

[sudden niche]

He was absolutely TROUNCING midfield in that Renault

[tiny geode]

I wonder how much money Ocon has cost Alpine/Renault

[remote knoll]

it's just ignorance

[tiny geode]

In parts

[sonic epoch]

Ok fine the Renault was a shitbox

[winged flax]

lets jsut hope nothing goes bad for him in next gp

[wet sequoia]

Sometimes I do wish Mad Max punched Ocon from years ago

Rarely, but it happens

[remote knoll]

yes i hope his laptime doesnt get deleted again in Jeddah

[tiny geode]

It was a midfield car that Dan put on the podium

[sudden niche]

How tf are we still on this

[stable comet]

Give me just a sec, finding it in the race via his onboard.

[winged flax]

foreshadowing

[sudden niche]

Alpine is costing themselves money by making such a dog water car

[tiny geode]

Because it keeps happening lol

[sudden niche]

How??

[remote knoll]

ocon doesnt crash that much

[wet sequoia]

Yes, everyone else “crashes into him”

[sonic epoch]

Even their own engineers are making fun of their team

[sudden niche]

Ocon had seven DNFs last year cause the car was shitting itself

[tiny geode]

Ocon defending against his team mate = 👿 Ocon vs another team = 😴

[sudden niche]

That or it was an incident or Gasly himself

Like bruh

[remote knoll]

Beating your teammate 💪

[sudden niche]

Ocon had 4 fucking mechanical retirements

[tiny geode]

Australia was Gasleys fault

[remote knoll]

for sure

[sudden niche]

And 3 incident ones

[remote knoll]

bad rejoin and just turns across Ocon

[tiny geode]

yeah wtf was that rejoin

[sonic epoch]

At this rate Renault will be gone in f1

[tiny geode]

was he concussed? cuz if not no excuse

[sudden niche]

One of which was Gasly himself

[remote knoll]

concussed 💀

[stoic wolf]

I was concussed after watching it

[tiny geode]

hahaha\

[remote knoll]

lmaao

[wet sequoia]

Nah, a lot of history, they need a new engine

[sudden niche]

So like, lmao Ocon barely crashed in a race last year

[remote knoll]

Ocon is just him

[tiny geode]

Was really smart of Otmar to put them in gokarts reigniting thier hatred for each other 3 days before the season started

[sudden niche]

At this rate Ocon is better off in Haas

[remote knoll]

I don't think it reignited their hatred

[stoic wolf]

But but KMag 🥺

The vibes

[sudden niche]

And Gasly better off in like, Williams or smth

[tiny geode]

Yeah, would be smart of alpine to drop him and haas could get him cheap, no one else would want him

[remote knoll]

But but logan : (

[tiny geode]

Albon/Gasley would be a great pairing

[sudden niche]

KMag to Mercedes bro

[remote knoll]

Mercedes want O-

you what

[tiny geode]

Kmag the fuck out

[stoic wolf]

Wut

[tiny geode]

No more raiding for viking boy

[stoic wolf]

I love KMag and even I know this take is whack

[sudden niche]

??? Alpine would be idiots to drop Ocon lol. Ocon is just gonna save his own skin by ditching them

[tiny geode]

Haha i can see why, honestly i love the guy but he doesnt have what it takes

[sudden niche]

I was joking

[stoic wolf]

[sudden niche]

Eh…?

[tiny geode]

K mag, fuck ocon lol

[remote knoll]

what wrong with ocon : (

[tiny geode]

Ocon is a liability

[remote knoll]

how

[stoic wolf]

Charles and Kmag to Merc to cause peak chaos with Toto 🔥

Wait not Charles

Carlos

Fml

[tiny geode]

He's shown time and time again he's willing to sacrafice the team for his own selfishness

[stoic wolf]

He doesn’t pass the vibe check.

[tiny geode]

Where would George go?

[dusky lark]

haas

[tiny geode]

Couldn't afford him and no way George's pride would let him race for haas

[sudden niche]

Truly don’t see why you hate him

[dusky lark]

hes french

[stoic wolf]

RB

Either one lol

[tiny geode]

O fuck that would be great

[tiny geode]

Really?

Who's the worst team player on the grid?

[stoic wolf]

Max

[sudden niche]

But whatever

[stoic wolf]

Jk

[tiny geode]

Lol max probably forgets who his team mate is

[stoic wolf]

I’m still annoyed at Azerbaijan 2018

[tiny geode]

He probaly forgets he's in a race after lap 2

[stoic wolf]

Man’s mentally going over the grocery list during the race so he doesn’t have to sleep on the couch at home

[remote knoll]

Max probably pulls out his phone while the FIA aren't looking

[stoic wolf]

Max during the race: Googles what is the highest angry bird score while in a car. 😮‍💨

[remote knoll]

lmao i was just thinking of angry birds too

[stoic wolf]

He feels like the type to play angry birds

[winged flax]

aaaa hiyya

[stoic wolf]

Checo probs would play temple run

[dusky lark]

max def plays doodle jump on his screen during the race

[remote knoll]

💀

[winged flax]

candy crush?

[stoic wolf]

Charles feels like a candy crush guy

Same with Lewis

[winged flax]

ok true

[stoic wolf]

Carlos is probs doing his daily Duolingo lesson

[dusky lark]

charles would probably just bring a bottle of wine

[sudden niche]

Just install netflix on the wheel

[winged flax]

lando more like it while he was teammates with carlos

[dusky lark]

norris would play F1 23 on his screen during the race

[winged flax]

thats wild

[stoic wolf]

Was Lando the one who was like Soy lago

I am a lake 😂😂

[remote knoll]

watch dts while traveling at 300ks

[sudden niche]

Or idk install poker on the wheel or smth

[stiff bough]

[stable comet]

Boulder, I sent the video in #formula-1 .

[remote knoll]

misinformation

baiting

mute

[stable comet]

I also included Sargeant's race start, as well as his solid overtake on Ricciardo on lap 2.

[remote knoll]

Sargeant was indeed cooking

[sudden niche]

Ye wait wifi weak all of a sudden

Gimme a sec

[stable comet]

He was up into P13 before his wheel decided to fuck him over.

[remote knoll]

We are back in this

[stable comet]

His average pace was higher than Albon's too, despite having to be lapped practically half of the racing laps.

[remote knoll]

man

hearing that is so frustrating

[stable comet]

Points were likely not on the table, but I think he could have managed P11.

[stable comet]

Hey @stiff bough , can you add image perms back to this channel?

[stiff bough]

idk can i

[stable comet]

His race start was very chatic.

Here's the overtake on Ricciardo.

And here's his car shitting itself.

[dusky lark]

what software do you use?

[stoic wolf]

@tiny geode you’ll probably appreciate this 🤣🤣

Why the Dutch national anthem

[remote knoll]

the same situation from a few races back

F1 Multiviewer for the platform; for the screen recording I use HitPaw.

Let the damn season play put

I doubt Charles will lose to Carlos after winning twice

Shoo with this bad juju 😌

Carlos is just hot, period.

[tiny geode]

just like his engine at austria (2022)

Too soon 💀

smooooooooooth

Operatorrr

[knotty jolt]

no just
smoooooth

[tiny geode]

Like this Molson beer 😉

Carlos to Red bull confirmed

[stoic wolf]

Carlos is gonna look stunning in Merc blue.

[knotty jolt]

ngl I'd hate to see him become a "good" second driver

[tiny geode]

He'd look better in Red bull colors

[knotty jolt]

at ferrari they at least give him some rights 😭

[stoic wolf]

Ngl I think Ferrari colors are probs best for him

[tiny geode]

Ferrari are to up thier own ass

[tiny geode]

True

[knotty jolt]

he might have a level playing field at merc

[tiny geode]

Spainiards look good in Red, who knew

[stoic wolf]

Everyone

[shell perch]

@tiny geodeSainz To REDBULL

[tiny geode]

Honestly tho if Carlos doesnt get a seat at Red bull or Merc it will be a travesty

[shell perch]

yes true

[knotty jolt]

depends on how the rest of the grid moves

[stoic wolf]

I’ll have to go through the five phases of grief fr

Might be depressed

Carlos in a Williams or Alpine makes me nauseous

[knotty jolt]

no chance of that I hope 😭

[snow swan]

Fr

[tiny geode]

Perez is out of contact and Hammys seat is free... It makes the most sense that he goes there

[stoic wolf]

Max + Carlos won’t mesh well ego wise

[knotty jolt]

Those are not the only free seats

so

[stoic wolf]

George is subby enough to let Carlos be lead 😂

So Carlos to Merc would be a dream

[knotty jolt]

[tiny geode]

Heyy now that's the beauty of Carlos, he's truly a professional

[stoic wolf]

He’s too spicy to willingly come second to max tho

[tiny geode]

I would love to see carlos to merc just to see the fight for #1 driver

[tiny geode]

He was willing to come 2nd to Leclerc

[pine turret]

YES

[knotty jolt]

not always

if he believes that he has enough pace then he'll put up a fight

[tiny geode]

No but he knew that's what he signed up for and he played an amazing wing man until this season

[stoic wolf]

I love IDGAF Carlos

Dude unlocked his Lightning McQueen mode

[tiny geode]

IDGAF Carlos is going to expose Leclerc

[stoic wolf]

He’s in his Reputation Era fr

[tiny geode]

100%

[stoic wolf]

Ngl I don’t think anyone would get that reference

[pine turret]

https://tenor.com/view/death-gif-20834117

😬😬😬😬😬

[stoic wolf]

[sudden niche]

Hot take

But that might be perfect

I know this might sound dumb

But I feel like Carlos actually helped Charles improve

Because Carlos actually beats Charles on the road

So they end up having a lot of respect for each other

And if Carlos can do to Max what he does to Charles

You’ll have the best driver

With someone who can not only pickup results, but someone who constantly pushes the other to improve

But who knows

Maybe Carlos can withstand Ferrari

But can he withstand getting Max’d?

Who knows

[stoic wolf]

Thing is, I have faith in Carlos being fine with coming second to Max. I don’t think Max would ever be okay with coming second to Carlos.

[sudden niche]

I don’t think so??

Remember who was Max’s first teammate

And who Carlos’ was

They were literally in each other’s rookie years

Max respects Carlos quite a bit

[undone turtle]

hey everybody

I’m pretty new to f1

[icy walrus]

Epik did you watch the race this morning

[undone turtle]

Yeah, for me it was yesterday night

[icy walrus]

Oh alr

[undone turtle]

Can somebody please explain what DRS is

[icy walrus]

Im pretty sure its basically drafting where the rear wing opens up alowing more straight line speed

[stoic wolf]

A lot of time and a lot of stuff has gone down since then. Current Max has a whole new ego imo.

[icy walrus]

Im not 100%

[icy walrus]

Max is lewis hamilton on steriods

[undone turtle]

So basically more speed?

[icy walrus]

Yea

[undone turtle]

Oh nice, thanks

Who do you support?

[icy walrus]

Lando norris

[undone turtle]

Nicee

[icy walrus]

Or you could just say mclaren

[sullen kraken]

yeah season is over max verstappen is world champion

[icy walrus]

All it takes is a 22 second win a bahrain and hes convinced

[sullen kraken]

Charles doesn't seem comfortable with the car

[icy walrus]

I just thought he was complaining

Because he got destroyed by his teamate and rbr

[sullen kraken]

Nah he really doesn't seem comfortable with it, look at Sainz he is

[icy walrus]

Nah im only kidding his car was completely acting up

[icy walrus]

I feel like they may be using a new snowballing technique and charles is just acting

[sudden niche]

No? The brakes were fucked

That’s it

[icy walrus]

Also what does it mean when lewis broke his seat

[cunning needle]

he finished 4th w break issues

george had worse i think

overall a lot of ppl have a lot of issues w their cars

[icy walrus]

Yeah the mercedes car is looking very bad

[cunning needle]

his seat was broken probably

or maybe that was code lang

probably not

[icy walrus]

Yes but how do you break a goddam seat in a formula 1 cae

Car

[cunning needle]

he didnt break it

the seat on the car was not stable and probably broke on its own whilst turning

not turning

idk what happened

the seat just broke

a lot of things can happen

carlos was happy in that youtube video where he got interviewed

happy for the man tbh

[icy walrus]

Yeah he did very well today with a good race pace but perez and max gained seconds early so there was no catching up

[severe pumice]

Hopefully this is gonna be the only time max wins by 22s

[opaque scarab]

the race was good as a verstappen fan

[stoic wolf]

What happened with Nico today btw

I didn't really pay much attention to the Haas group now that I think about it

[opaque scarab]

i feel bad for hass

[gusty meadow]

6 days till next race

when hopefully we won t hear the dutch anthem

[snow swan]

we will

[stoic wolf]

I'm torn if I should switch my lineup to have Charles/Lando/Carlos or Charles/Lando/Hamilton(or Russell)

I guess I could also do Charles/A Merc/Carlos

[opaque scarab]

which app?

I don’t know much about tyre rules
Can someone explain why the mediums were not an option yesterday?

[toxic siren]

They weren't very good.

The difference in grip between them and hards wasn't that much but they also lasted much longer.

Mediums, in this case, just weren't a good race tire.

[meager dock]

Dutch national anthem has officially became the outro song for f1 permanently

[rain atlas]

cooked

he'd still win what are you on about

[raven wagon]

Guess this petition is outdated

[rain atlas]

even then max would still win

[south remnant]

Can we just fuck over red bull just enough so Ferrari and red bull can have a title fight with some regulation changes

[slim chasm]

well kinda, last year he gapped the P3 for 20+ sec

this year is 2+ sec

so.... perspective?

[hushed wadi]

i don't even know

at least he wasn't miles behind position-wise

[slim chasm]

wait a few races I guess

[hushed wadi]

like he has been for the entire second half of 2023

the pissa cashfuck racing balls team thing managed to have a complete meltdown from race 1 lmao
