it still makes it impressive and worthy of praise
and that also goes for a backmarker car managing to jump the rest of the field and get into the points and then stay there despite numerous cars trying to overtake them
like Albon has done several times over the last 2 years
Nice essay
but thats not performance thats just being sentimental
How did Perez become so trash
Do u guys think carlos will win
imo, its the pressure of him in free agency
now hes re-signed, hes under pressure to do well
He just needs to relax. Enjoy is last few seasons
He's been here a long time, thought he would've gotten a bit more comfortable with pressure
Though yeah, tbf, it wasn't ever at this level
At least he hasn’t left running like the rest of Verstappen’s teammates.
xDD
We all know who is going to win
lnao
bro can’t spell 🔥
*lmao
fr
watch him qualify p1 and start p4 and get crashed out by russell in turn 1
michael schumachers winning
Ye alonsigma
I still can't believe Logan Paul won in Spain
like holy moly
Logan
i think ferrari will make comeback
to P10?
yes
and checo will be P17,not dnf
"ferrari can't battle with redbull!"
meanwhile fierce ferrari-redbull rivally:
Albon dragging that Williams to the top team fight
all out
Lol
1-(1)2

alonso or sainz p1!!!!!!!!
lol
sure
might as well retire the car coz why waste the engine?
ig its gonna be a max sainz norris
Hopefully ferrari won't be a disaster
i doubt so
ferrari was ferrari
but ig both sainz and leclerc would be pissed
my pred is that ferrari will outperform
(im fredric)
prayin for that
Miami dolphins for wcc 2201
red bull logo for the 2025 calendar:
you should expect P8
and rejoice if they got anything else
haha

kmag after getting his 12th penalty:
sainz will win
delulu
lol
Hoping that either Alonso or Sainz will win their home race.
As much as I want Alonso to win, there is no way he can win in a shitbox of an Aston.
Please lay off the copium, it’s bad m’kay
I mean Sainz maybe, Alonso definitely not
just needs a bit of sleep
9am est
Oky thanks
yw
Pins have localised times for you
Never have to ask
I am going to win #keeppushing
P4-P5 at best
I doubt Checo is going to continue this hideous form (I do not, but i'll give him that benefit)
Piastri will sadly destroy his tyres, if Checo is again absent Chuck might snag a podium
More like Russell or Sainz will destroy Piastri’s race 💀
This is an option too
It's either the one or the other
Piastri must solve this tyre deg problem if McLaren are to take the fight to Ferrari (and extensively, Redbull)
Piastri does have a decent grasp on tire degradation, tire strategy cost him places in Canada, otherwise he’s being very consistent and scored points every race (Except Miami thanks to Sainz doing a Mad Max)
G
🥹
he just needs that little bit more tho, which I'm sure won't take too much longer, all just in experience
Yeah it's an experience issue
I am convinced he'll be right up there when he sorts this out
He’s somewhat on top of it now, I hope to see him finish 5th or higher next year
To be fair with how Perez is going he’ll probably finish 5th this year
Yeah but if Mercedes have got their upgrades working Russell might finish 5th
Not saying that yet off 1 race
Mercedes did good at Singapore last year until Russell sacrificed himself for Sainz
And Mercedes seemed to be flattered a lot by Ferrari being completely absent on one hand, but on the other hand they really had pace in Canada
Bwoah
Kimi antonelli got finalized for F1 merc 2025 ?
nope
Almost but not yet
😃
Anybody from 🇪🇸 ?
No i am 🇫🇷
my podium for spanish grand prix. 1: Max VERSTAPPEN 2: Carlos SAINZ 3: Lando NORRIS
Do we know if the Spanish circuit suits more to Mercedes or Ferrari?
Carlos ain't even getting podium
Max, Norris, Russell/Ham, Lec, Sainz, Piastri,Checo
nah mercedes are gonna be after ferrari
ferrari are gonna get their shit tg before the race
Did you see their one lap quali pace?
did you see the weather?
the weather just wasn't suited for them but in the spanish gp its different lmao
On softs, Mercedes were quickest
same
One lap pace, as demonstrated thouroughly by Ferrari the past 5 years does not mean shit lmao
as i said ferrari will get their shit tg before the race
they did horrible in canada
Ferrari strategies have been all over the place
so they're gonna come back strong
Good quali can put Mercedes ahead of Ferrari in terms of podium finish
Ferrari better cook at Spain or their fucked
And a faster race car will negate that
Ferrari fans are hitting that copium za za
LITERALLY
"
this isn't monaco where cars can't overtake 😂
Charles for lapped
Real
LMFAO
last race was horrid
for ferrari
but it was fun to watch
even though im a ferrari fan
And Williams
What is blud name😭🙏
Always nice to see Checo fumble the car
Lance will never be him
Lance Stroll fan
😟
Joking lance isn’t awful just disappointing this season
LMFAO
But the person in my pfp is Franco Israel
True
Our lord and savior 🔥
Honestly if Lance could have been replaced Carlos would be a perfect fit
Just imagine Carlos and Alonso in Aston
Would be amazing not only for the racing but their profit and media marketing
True
Sadly
Someone needs to buy that man out of AM
we need to see AM championship
Nah Stroll needs to be consistent
He needs to be yeeted out
Predictions for Barcelona:
• P1 - Super Max
• P2 - Focused George
• P3 - Lewis Hamilton
• P4 - Uncle Checo
• P5 - Little Lando
• P6 - Charles Leclerc
• P6 - Oscar Piastri
• P7 - Yuki Tsunoda
• P8 - Fernando Alonso
• P9 - Pierre Gasly
• P10 - The Honey Badger 🦡
I’ll do it
lewis podium 2024?
nah
also
sainz out of points???
Verstappen wins with 20 seconds difference over second place
Ferrari won’t perform well in Spain, it doesn’t suit their cars 🚗
My prediction for Barcelona:
P1 - Verstappen
P2 - Leclerc
P3 - Norris
P4 - Sainz
P5 - Piastri
P6 - Russell
P7 - Hamilton
P8 - Alonso
P9 - Stroll
P10 - Gasly
Where is sainz?
also ferrari has been performing too well for too long
After Canada he’s really dropped in my rankings.
When things are going well for Ferrari they find a way to mess it up. It’s the Ferrari way 😅
”because ferrari is ferrari” - RPM
Where is Yuki?
where's zhou p0
Dnf
Mercedes will probably return to normal
I don't think they will achieve a podium
yes
checo p4 is bold
Lando Win incoming
I don't think perez will recover the level he had at the start of the season
P8 maximum
Checo beat a 7 time world champion last year. Checo got a Monaco win before Leclerc. Checo took a penalty to avoid a safety car last race so Max could win.
Checo is BOLD 🥹🫶🇲🇽
I believe this prediction
Tag that Redbull tag off right now 😭
Checo not in top 10 in that prediction
serves bro right with his recent performance💀🙏
true af tho
yes he does
i love papa checo but cmon mane😢
Checo is in decline
Checo will bounce back I know it 🥹🔥🇲🇽
um monaco and canada say otherwise if you ask me
Everyone has an off day sometimes 😔
he will bounce back in 2025
Monaco wasn’t a race and Canada was very wet 👀
2023?
monaco was a conga train
Perez has had 3 bad races
Hes a F1 driver he can drive in the wet no issue
Plus like half of it was dry
What about 2023?
What is bro on about lack of performance? 👀
Sergio Perez last year scored 2nd highest points, second highest amount of podiums. One of three drivers to win a race.
Is still 5th in 2024. Redbull have had some problems with their car this year, even Max has struggled a bit.
Checo will bounce back he just needs some time. Barcelona favours redbulls and Mercedes, Checo will be on podium Spain 2024 🇪🇸
Thats just on paper sir, did u even watch last year?
Bro he literally has been out qualified by Logan 6 times
He’s in the seat because of the support he brings, there’s no shot you’re claiming he has good performance
Respectfully
did you even see the point difference from max??
I mean cmon he got passed by an alpine last race
nah he's actually done for💀
ong
Sixteenth in Monaco, Eighth in Singapore, retired in Japan, tenth in Qatar, retired in Mexico.
i dont think this guy even watched 2023 ngl
You know what I hope all you Checo haters have a lovely evening.
we aint hating lmao
its the truth
his performance has been slumping
If we’ve said anything that isn’t just the facts I’ll take that 💀
😢
right anyways, moving on from fans who probably came from DTS this year have no clue what f1 is or anything about it bases everything off of paper and more! lets talk non-braindead f1 eh?
"probably came from DTS" is amazing
I mean it’s factual.
bro checo absolutely SUCKS
liek gen
checo is terrible
bro didn't sugarcoat it😭🙏
Do y’all think there’s any chance of a constructors championship fight? Or do you think redbull have it back under control
DNF, DNF 
mclaren will take it
Canada was still very close so no i think
Dude I hope
Mclaren is my favorite team rn
Fair enough
I want an Oscar win by the end of the year
Perez highlights
I feel like it’s definitely possible
can we name him MR. DTS?
from my heart, please tell ur fav driver to finish a race
Oscar chokes under pressure
YEEEEOUUUUUUUUICH
Mr. DNF*
Not really + this is his only 2nd year in f1 and hes doing better then someone in a redbull
at least bro has a sprint win? he doesnt choke under pressure he’s j quite unlucky and lacks the experience of the other front runners around him, this season he will finish ahead of checo in the WDC
Mexican Minister of defence not being able to handle pressure????
What is bro smoking?
oscar doing better than half the grid rn
facts
mexican minister of defense cant even defend against a haas 😭
kmag is a better defender
A nickname doesn’t prove your point 😭 Perez sees less q3’s than I do women
kmag should take checos defender title ngl
Kmag is a maniac with a super license
bro says that after one rough defensive display
i wanna know what u thought of max from like 2016-2020 then
I’m not going to change anyone minds here. I shall leave you too your hatred 😔
oscar doing better than the 7x wdc lewis cameltoe rn ngl
mclaren is the bwst team on the grid fr
and we have two of the best drivers
with bright ass futures
zak brown saved us
the ironic part is that theres a high chance by the end of the year hulkenburg will probably have more q3 appearances then checo, but anywho
i dont think checo is that washed
we arent hating lmao
clearly haven't seen kick sauber..
i just think checo will be a consistent P6 all season

lmao fr
it just seems as you’ve come from dts
You went from hating on Checo to hating on me, calling me a DTS f1 fan
I mean at this rate you’re acting like one.
kinda seems like it tho
bro saw checo’s monaco win episode and went crazy with the narratives
😭
yk last years point gap to max with checo was mfing 200+ points?
I think piastri will achieve a victory this year 🗿
I'm gonna lie checo is 2024 wdc
real
Belgium i bet he’ll do it
in all honesty though, checo is by no means a bad driver. he just has terrible form atm and is not matching the standards expected from a RB driver even slightly. fact is that F1 would be more interesting if a more competitive driver took his seat.
I’m half Mexican. I support Checo because my mother is from Mexico
When Riccardo is beating you in quali, something aint right
🤔
You gonna bad mouth all of redbulls drivers???
I want lando to win in silverstone
no lmao?
i wanted to see checo at sauber with hulkenberg, sauber could be more competitive with the mexican sponsor money plus kick.
Yessssss
Kevin Magnussen taking note
ricciardo is also pretty washed lawson deserves that seat
defend the leader for no reason when being lapped
always max but no checo😭
my apolocheese virtual self
apolocheese yesss
why did you not post a checo gif huh
even your subconscious knows hes trash
Lawson was a machine in his few F1 races, I would like to see him on track in 2025 👀
I think Helmut wants Hadjar
helmut needs to be put in a home
That’s not Checo 😭
he’s like F1’s Joe Biden
yea i know
except Helmut is somewhat good at his job
Im just curious how red bull will look at the end of this year with all the drama etc
maybe he was but he is too racist and senile for the current state of things

the horndog will always prevail
he is old and rich and white, F1 is the perfect place for him
lmao fr
i just think a lot of the culture in F1 has changed towards younger and newer strategies for management which is why teams like mclaren and williams are moving up while more traditional teams management wise like merc and ferrari have struggled to get the results they desire
and i think that pattern is starting to show in RB
meanwhile Adrian Newey
I was at Joe’s house a few weeks ago 🥹🫶🔥
team culture is very important and at the end of the day, it is bad for a team’s culture to be spearheaded on track by some guy who cheats on his wife with his assistant and off track by some racist senile old man who is stuck in the 90’s
mods ban him, he just doxxed joe biden
bros just a cheat code he doesnt count lmao
i like newey and hes great but its just clear to see that RB simply had a better understanding of the regulations at first, while the other teams have taken longer to catch up, its clear to see that the newey advantage is no longer there performance wise
this is why u see teams like mclaren with zak brown and williams with vowles doing better and gaining more sponsors and traction. they bring in a fresh management style to F1 that is not as traditional and that is definitely the direction F1 is headed.
In what position will checo be in Barcelona
P1
P2
P3
P4
P5
P6
P7
P8
P9
P10
P11
P12
P13
P14
P15
P16
P17
P18
P19
P20
Retired
Retired
wait so 8 dnfs by lap 23?!
Lmao
if u thought canada was crazy…
i genuinely think spain is a mclaren track though
I think he will retire in the first laps
i can see mclaren double podium there oscar just needs to keep his shit together
imagine its like bucketing it down for spain
perhaps
maybe checo puts in a baller performance who knows
p7
If he doesn't die in q1
I love u Checo pls don't die 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I don't think he will go to q3 in barcelona
what happened to checo's career
lmao
he got in a team too fast for him i guess
like what happened to Albon?
Do we know if Mercedes are really quick? Or was it just a weather issue for Ferrari?
idk about Mercedes at this point man I'm just praying for em
They looked sublime in Practice and they showed it on track too
They were fighting McLaren hard too
I mean I think Albon was just rushed
2019 was his first year in F1
or was it 2018
that's true (2019 I think)
fairr Mercedes actually did rather spectacular
very pleasant surprise
:< cant he give his seat to carlos and go to williams
If you can convince Horner to send Checo to retirement and put Sainz there, then... Maybe?
If he does that. It proves Toto was right that there was something wrong with the car lmao
Red Bull doesn't want Sainz
have people not learn from 2015-2017 smh
Chinese f4
nono , he'll drive the SC in Barcelona and then go to Chinese F4
ferrari masterplan
Funny how Checo fans went from harassing Albon in 2020 to defending their driver like their life depends on it
Probably because his career somewhat depends on it
His popularity, sponsors and impossibility of challenging Max is why he’s still there
Also longest shot but if Red Bull is really going to invest in Endurance Racing and hypercars throw Perez in there
hopefully dns
Do RB have an IndyCar presence?
I feel like Perez in a local series is best.
He remains racing. Sells merchandise. Then RB F1 can focus on winning constructors
Don’t follow IndyCar (Annoying to follow a few motorsports in Australia)
Yeah... it is shit as we have to pay so much of IndyCar and Formula-E
I’m fine with F1 and watching the other 2 races of the triple crown
Our Supercars are not worth because we don’t have an Australian brand anymore
if red bull racing were in endurance racing they would probably be in the top 5 of racing teams in perez was in it
how does that solve Red Bull's F1 problem lol
they still have to find a replacement
tsunoda or lawson are very good contenders but i would love to see max and daniel again
really
those three are not better than Checo lol
red bull doesn't even have any one else to sign (unless they go for anyone in other racing series)
Well... they seem to be better than Checo now LOL
fr even logan sargeant has outqualified checo multiple times
Don’t think Max/Yuki would make good team mates, doubly so if Tsunoda surprisingly can challenge Max
Tsunoda and Max would clash heads
tsunoda has already made good chances in the first few races but now seems to drop off
I think the talk at the moment is that Tsunoda will look elsewhere past-2025. RB won't be a Honda partner, so it is likely another Team will get Honda Engines and Tsunoda.
I would love to see Tsunoda at a HONDA HAAS team
imagine tsunoda on a sauber with fucking honda v8s
Damn... one YouTuber reckons Riccardo's best chance of a 2025 seat is at Haas.
Imagine if Yuki leaves RB just to be Riccardo's team mate at HAAS
sounds like a movie
thats just max verstappen before the imola gp
he played sim racing before the race
i mean the movie gran turismo
Which was like half correct
dhar man be wildin
or either thats just fucking lance stroll's career
strongest all nighter fr
yeah, so does everyone until they have to challenge max
exactly
<@&781898349006684170> get him!!!!
DNS is Did Not Start, not completely asking for a crash
Leclerc had his engine shit itself last year
Hell yeah
the mods are gonna get him!!!!
I think you're missing my contention to this entire conversation. It isn't... who will defeat the almighty Max. I am concerned that they:
- No longer care about winning as many races as possible nor the constructors trophy
- That they will stagnate the progression of their team because they want Mexican Checo merchandise money more than anything.
Max is a great driver, and is well suited to the team. I think Checo would be better utilised elsewhere.
hey stimo
well
what took you so long to type this? (no offense)
I was looking at #formula-1 because someone is being homophobic... I think... got distracted
and getting trolled so much
ah yeah,the most normal thing most people do in june
I still want to know the tally for bans this month
Alright, if you can find a better driver then I'm sure Red Bull will listen
theres a whole damn fight in the general
LeClerc, Sainz, Tsunoda, Alonso, Chadwick (she would bring in money), Charles LeClerc, Oscar Piastri, Hulkenberg,
All of them have outqualified Checo multiple times and finished higher
ah yes, mid drivers and top drivers that have contracts
genius
every ferrari driver,every mclaren driver,every mercedes driver
I am so confused about why so seem so triggered because we are questioning Red Bulls management?
Checo isn't the best driver for that Number 2 seat, its a fact.
Tsunoda also could have been promoted, but we know why he wasn't.
so apparently checo is better than top drivers with high-raising jobs (excluding carlos)
Leclerc loves Ferrari
Sainz would ego battle with Max for a modern day Senna/Prost or Hamilton/Rosberg
Tsunoda not there yet
Alonso would not become a #2 driver
Hulkenburg 
Piastri wants to stay in McLaren
He only asked me to list better drivers, not realistic options available to RB
ALSO...
By not demoting Checo and not signing Lawson to either RB team makes me also concerned that Red Bull is not committed to its academy recruits.
Chadwick might bring in money but would it match checo?
Williams are doing the same if they sign Sainz
I would pay for that merch. I am a simp.
Money and politics is keeping Checo there, that and he can’t destabilise Max
Then... RB will die if they don't change
Not just rb
Merc is having the same situation (but with vesti)
red bull have it worse though
They genuinely have good talent that are just being rejected
the sport will die slowly if they don't mandate some key changes
I'm worried for Maloney considering sauber is gonna die soon
And I'm not sure if audi would want him
Same with théo
If Maloney won F2 by a landslide and Sainz goes to Williams that would be his only slim ticket
Then in the Alpine hellhole there's Doohan,Martins and Maini
I'm gonna be so missed if mick gets it over them
Mick will stay in WEC
There's also Aston Martin with Drugovich's 3rd Driver Purgatory
My proposals for F1:
-
Limit the races to 16 per year. Less driver fatigue and less time for drivers away from home. A good work life balance means great drivers stay for longer. Vettel left because he wanted to be with his family more and F1 robbed him of that.
-
Only the Top 3, 5, or 8 teams get prize money relative to WDC and Constructor rankings. This ensures teams actually try to win these, so we don't end up with the Washed CHECO situation or Riccardo for that fact.
-
Remove the spending cap on R&D. It will promote competition again and ensure that teams are more equal. I don't mind if huge multinationals come in and buy teams as long as it promotes good car development.
The sport isnt even dying atm
Its growing
And wtf is this only 8 teams get prize money
Then the smaller teams are fucked for proposal 2
-
F1 is still entertainment, needs to make money
-
It’s not healthy for investors buying bottom teams with no rewards
-
If you remove caps then only Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes would win everything
Cost cap has given more pros than cons
I’d rather not return to the days of Mercedes throwing money until shit worked
- No. It isn't. The bottom teams are drowning because when the concord was signed, the bottoms teams are never able to spend enough to catch up. The top teams are there already. Why do we want to restrict the bottom? It achieves nothing.
Remove the cap and we will go back to 2018 to 2020 levels of field gaps where the top 3 are just miles ahead
I would.
Well you are in the minority then
The tops teams would just throw more money to enhance their gap
No... there is a limit to how much power they can make in those cars and optimal aerodynamics are purely limited to driver preference and physics. Like... they can't break the speed of sound in those things.
The issue is the bottom teams didn’t have the money to overspend before the caps came in, Red Bull and Mercedes in particular spend millions to avoid having to carefully pick what to spend for the next few years
Then what the heck is proposal 2?
If only top 8 gets prize money then the teams will shrink down to 8
Due to the other 2 teams going bankrupt
These teams would fold faster than hrt
You spend millions on employee salries all those stuff, and then dont even get a single penny for finishing P9 or last
They gonna be millions in debt
Not even sponsor money can save them
It encourages teams to seek funding and actually competing for money. Not just clock in, lose and then clock out. It puts more risk into running teams.
Then they fold like Caterham.
Andretti can fill in for a team that folds
He would contest VER for attention for Team resources, upgrades, and might compete with Verstappen instead of bending over like Ferrari made Rubens do for Schumacher
Bruh if Honda didn’t supply Red Bull Tsunoda would have been gone after 2 years
There are people out there willing to field an F1 team. If you can't compete. Get out.
I feel like if Tsunoda were good enough to duke it out with Verstappen, Red Bull would promote him for the sake of keeping him out of other teams hands 🤔
And Tsunoda in his rookie season matters because?
We are talking about right now
Yeah not happening (the promotion part)
Because Red Bull go though drivers year after year
But he is good now
Funny thing is, there will be teams that finish P9 and P10, its inevitable
Plus besides Andretti, no other teams has seriously tried entering f1
Yeah... they lose. That's what losing is.
Imagine missing out on millions of dollars by ½ a point
Yuki's second year wasn't even that bad my god
Worse then Gasly
Not really
No one would take Tsunoda before this year
Could've gotten more points if not with reliability issues and bad strategies from his team
Milton Keynes has the largest graveyard in Europe
Even now I’m half convinced Red Bull are cheating with RB
Prost wants to speak to you...
Well, there was a couple. Just the FIA decided to deny their applications. Reckon it was just because Sulayem and Andretti have beef with FOM and wanted to just push Andretti through to really get on their nerves
i mean not enough money
There were four other applicants in the FIA's assessment of Andretti in F1. I believe that they could get the money together to field a team if it didn't cost so much to appease Liberty Media

i don't think he is that desperate to race in f1 again
Even with this current every team gets money, theres this goal to not finish last in the constructors
So yes theres still some motive for backmarker teams to not finish last
In good faith, what's their incentive to not lose?
Employees get less bonus
Cant balance the financies
Hell you might even lose drivers as well
Okay I see the point. I just think we need to open the door to failure in this sport.
It reminds me too much of how High Schools won't fail students.
What
Like... there is no risk anymore.
Finishing P10 in the constructors is alr considered a failure
There's plenty of risk
Nobody is happy to finish last
well
yeah
thats p10
Different teams have different goals and expectations
Failure to meet them results in them considering their season a failure
Why try when you aren't going lose it ALL!?
Like... Audi knows there is a tomorrow.
When Bianchi got points for Marussia that meant something.
Now... it means less.
Cause the 2 points helped Marussia not finish last in the constructors
Gave them more prize money
Saved them from bankruptcy
10 teams is the bare minimum amount for F1 to have, it is in their best interests to do everything they can to keep those 10 teams
Plus teams are more conpetitve now with the cap
(not actually the bare minimum, just the minimum they want to have)
12 points is not even enough to not finish last in the constructors 

Cough cough Haas
There's still Sauber.
Now... Sauber has a GP2 car in with a seasoned veteran running for the door and a washed F2 recruit.
I want more chaos GODAMMIT
This has been going on for an hour
Sauber shoulda had 15-20 points by now
But does f1 need chaos
No
Why tf will Liberty want to do a Bernie and run the sport to the ground
Just to make it chaotic 
They do the opposite.
I would find it entertaining
LOOK...
My ideas aren't going to be implemented. I know that.
Everything Liberty has done was from the financially pov good for the sport.
I just wanted to spitball my thoughts on what I believe F1 should be.
And your vision of f1 is just full of bs 

You're right, but Drive to Survive makes the sport more gossip drama over the great tradition of rich dudes dying at high speed before a cup of tea
i agree
If you find it entertaining watching liberty and f1 decend into chaos, thats a pretty sad mindset 
Never watched DtS because I don't have Netflix.
ikr
Plus before liberty and dts, theres plenty of rumors, gossip spreading around
We had multiple conspiracies
DTS > F1

said no one
all kinds of gates
Crash gate was wild doe
Glock to this day gets death threats
Alonso definitely knew 😅
same in 2021 for Latifi
but not one open for an 11th team to enter 😔
He even mentioned how right after the Brazil race ended, he got flooded by media claiming did he let Lewis past on purpose
i hope he is actually getting the lifetime red bull supply christian promised
I also remember someone claiming the Benneton was illegal as it used traction control or something
Latifi is a legend for helping max win 🥹🫶🔥
in liberty f1 there was:
2018 ferrari halo-mounted wing mirrors
2019 ferrari engine
mercedes w11 DAS
tracing point
ad21
red bull cost cap maybe
also flexi wing maybe
copygate
tracing point
the pink Mercedes
included in the list
and the Green Bull
social media can’t stand the idea of racing drivers losing their seats anymore it’s always “they’re getting unfair treatment” bro whatever happened to just being too ass or underperforming
@slim chasm he said the thing
The thing
^ Red Bull fans explaining why RB management are retaining two washed drivers
(They are good drivers, because they don't pay attention.)
Ah yes Perez, the one who hasn't entered Q3 in the last 3 races, is worth keeping apparently
Fuck
Im predicting a McLaren 1-2 in Spain
Not a chance
I predict
- Verstappen
2.Norris
3.George
4.Alonso
5.Piastri
I can see Verstappen DNF due to loss of grip on rain
and Checo will NOT DNF this race
There will be ATLEAST 1 safetycar
and a possible red flag
I can see Hamilton P3
Norris gets his 2nd victory
Max has had his 1 DNF of the season. He will be P1 where he belongs 🫶
My guts tell me Verstappen wont be P1
He'll either DNF from grip loss or just go off track and rejoin
Checo might finish ahead of Verstappen
Spain is Redbulls and Mercedes paradise track with a lot of straights and wide turnings. Max also has the fastest time here set last year.
I can see the Redbull and Mercedes taking a lot of points, McLaren doing ok and Ferrari having another nightmare weekend.
I need to renew my theories
Ferrari might have another DNF
Verstappen has a chance to loose P1
Hamilton might come on Podium along with Lando Norris
We might see Ferrari double DNF or luckily just 1 DNF
If it is raining we could see another Checo DNF
bro not grammar-ing
If we're basing it off dnf rate, then by that logic McLaren will get 1
Since they haven't dnf at all
I’m mean he’s not wrong, the season hasn’t ended yet.
Him not being objectively wrong doesn't mean that him saying that in this context negates what the post was about
Lando might win or DNF
Lando is not winning
You know who is
Fernando
El padre is going to win in his home race
Gonna say verstappen wins here and piastri p2. Alonso maybe P3
Imagine Aston actually doing successful upgrades
Hopefully 💀
Won’t happen, daddy Stroll put all his eggs in the buying Newey basket
Isn’t he going to Ferrari
So the word is, no offical announcement yet
I meant with Newey
Ohh 😮
I love redbull bet checo needs to figure his shit out, right now
true
This means, "I'm still driving the car that Dad had bought me and yes, I'm wasting a seat. Instead of getting a better driver to make my Dad's dreams come true, win a championship.
Fr I like checo too but he’s gotta lock in
There’s not a lot of growth with him 💀
Alonso🤑
Alonso doesn't have a good car
Can't beat mclaren or ferrari
Honestly it’s just funny to me that Lewis doesn’t give a shit about Mercedes anymore
- Leclerc
- Sainz
- Hulkenberg
Hulkenberg ☠️
and so doesn't mercedes and its whole media team
Logan Sargent mentioned what is bad driving
Can't spell Spain without Pain
What teams are generally good here?
Redbull
Mercedes
Last year McLaren weren't this good so I would McLaren 3rd
Ferrari 4th
Redbull
Ferrari
Mercedes
McLaren
Are the top 4 teams that all of which could win a constructors title this year.
I have them as in rankings brother
Mercedes included
big funny
Mercedes will return to normal
They had the fastest car in Canada 🇨🇦
I expect them and Redbull to be the fastest cars in Spain 🇪🇸
Ok i definetly dont and belieive that Canada was just a one of
We already broke 2 curses this season why not break a third
Maybe Hulkenberg will get podiums with Audi
just checked into our hotel in madrid
:)
4 days here then we work our way over to barca
train to valencia then i think we drive from there
man 😞
guys is formula uno reliable
the sight
What does bro mean? 👀
they said that they confirmed from independent sources that ferrari is expediting and speeding up their floor development to put the new floor on at spain
site*
I can't even find it on Google so I'm not sure my guy
I do see an article that also mentions this new floor idea but I don't think it's very credible either
it’s a sliver
of hope
the smallest sliver
a tiny bit
but it’s a light at the end of the tunnel
if these upgrades work and we win in spain
we could be back at both championships
this could be our year
h
as long as he does better than perez
idk what ur on but i need some
he definitely will
How?
its fake dw
Oh I’m dumb
well mercedes is debateable
Would they
Redbull
Mclaren
Ferrari
I genuinely think Mclaren/Ferrari have a good chance to overtake RB this year or next year
Lmao
Merc are like 177 off Redbull, they really need to win like multiple races in a row to even have a chance
@pure aurora Mercedes were the fastest care in Canada (in my opinion).
George Russel is showing promising results and Lewis is a 7 times wdc.
I would say Mercedes have a good shot at title this year
Not even halfway through the season. Plenty of time for upsets
In canada? sure. But in the rest of the races this year they've havn't been catching up to everyone
I am expecting that Redbull and Mercedes perform well in Spain 🇪🇸
Yeah and a 177 point gap after like 9 races is a pretty big gap to close
I expect Mclaren too as wel
Merc now need like 4 consecutive 1 2s
It is a big gap but you never know
Ill take them more seriously once they win a race this season
Not even 1, I would say like 3 in a row
Unless redbull, mclaren, and ferrari completelly butcher up their cars, I doubt they can catch up to rb
they might be able to overtake mclaren, but mclarens realllly strong. Ferrari might get overtaken first
lmaooooo
ANAKIN SKYWALKER IS DEAD
I don’t rate the new Star Wars movies but their tv shows have been good 🥹
This is possibly my favourite Star Wars scene of all time 🥹🫶🔥
Ehhhhhhhhhh
I mean if you look at pace charts both McLarens and Verstappen were faster on average throughout the race 🤷
Then why was George on pole?
You didn't read what I said
You said during the race. Where drivers are defending/attacking, saving tires, charging battery.
Qualifying is fastest times without those conditions and Mercedes equaled 1st place
Ok. That's still a more valuable statistic than one lap with no fuel
The Mercedes with high fuel and tire management during the race, was simply not as quick as Verstappen or the McLarens.
George was as fast on ONE lap. One data point
What I'm looking at is an average of 70 data points. It should paint a much more accurate picture
i love this scene
Whoever got the time first. Gets the higher position :3
Literally being tied for pole hasn’t been done since 1997 eu gp, afaik
I am finally free of the timeout😞
lando norris 1st spanish gp no lie I saw the future
It gave me chills 🫶
Darth Vader and Morgoth are the two best villains in fantasy history 🥹
hopefully we got merc back in the game
I dunno, Palpatine toying with Maul while killing his brother is up there
I prefer paul atreides.
Spanish or Vanish
1st gp? Where was he for the past 4 seasons 😭
Mark my words, duolingo gonna post something
I meant win
I was really tired typing that
lol who is this crybaby
Bro doesn’t know 2016
Lol I knew something was missing in that x3
Alonso
when did he drive for Mercedes?
wait
you mean Aston Martin
technically they use Mercedes engines
noway
2007 Alonso drove
yes
when he was at McLaren in 07
i hope that mercedes will still be competitive at spain
Norris might get more points than Leclerc in the Spanish gp
they only have 7 points gap
Boys LECERC come back?
carlos will get a podium if not a win i can tell it
%100
(i'm delusional)
BUT PLEASE CARLOS
last spanish gp with ferrari before his career gets fucked
genuinely praying
Why is Horner crying?
Dunno man, maybe onions?
Ain't no way Mercedes front wing be that sharp to cut onions and make him cry
Antoneilli F1 debut in Barcelona ? https://www.fia.com/sites/default/files/appendix_l_2024_publie_le_11_juin_2024.pdf
any predicrions for the spansih gp
i think McLaren and Ferrari will cause problems to red bull, but they will still take the chequred flag on sunday
What about Aston Martin?
Seems like 5th of the pack
If Mercedes return to pre-Canada pecking order
Then Alonso could be fighting the Mercs
yeah they are competitive at this circuit every year, shoul not be counted out
i think they will be weak, low midfield
So no alonso podium 😭
i predict that he wont be on the podium, aston martin is generally weaker than last year
Aston not Aston-ing
good one
Exceptions can only be made for as long as the driver is from the FIA Feeder ladder.
It's part of the unwritten rules of F1, duh.
for a ferrari fan
ur really like
no delusion
i think ferrari will fight for the win
they keep saying that they are calm but from all the interviews it seems like they also know canada fucked them in the championships
so they need to come back strong in spain or they won’t come back at all and we go back to being the 4th best for another year
waste of time
Average Ferrari fan
Ferrari fans will do anything for sainz or leclerc rn just they are so hardcore
jos verstappen simulator
we are checking... 🤡
That won’t happen this year
Also Canada was weird for everyone, not carrying the results over to Spain
Unless somehow Mercedes end up 3-4 again then my McLaren boys will probably be fucked after awhile
I mean
Why would i get so excited just to be dissappointed from something not happening
Said something being a completely baseless narrative i made up
2022 taught me this lesson the hard way
yeah?
try 2018
2017
2019
fuck being emo
have hope
even if theres no point
come on man
its charles leclerc
we got this
thats called dedication 🔥🔥🔥
a lil too dedicated
Same
🔥🔥🔥
you're just like me my bruzza 🗿
🤓
FORZA FERRARI
its just
for real
