ok lol
As i said, its prob just mclaren being petty about their rear wing
welcome to F1, even Newey didn't like Brawn's double diffuser
my point was that mclaren was doing it too thats all
My WCC predictions for 2026 is Mercedes, RedBull, Aston Martin, Mclaren, Ferrari
Adrian is gonna do wonders for aston
to be fair, the mini drs is quite controversial... being a red bull fan im obligated to agree
Was it illegal tho.
it should be
Still legal.
No it wasnt. FIA said it was completely legal
if it’s technically not, it absolutely should be
And yet its not illegal.
It was against the spirit of the regs
thats such a bs advantage
Ok so why didnt redbull try to replicate it?
it wasn’t illegal but it was obviously not intended to be legal
How the fuck
What we talking about?
so the fia banned it
prob cause they didnt even think about it
never said it was, just said it was controversial, adding to the fact that we're pointing out upgrades that bend the FIA rules
Fia literally said it was legal? But banned it cos redbull complained
Its the same as the air duct on the nose of the car, it got banned even tho it was legal
banned it cause they realized it was bs
it was a loophole in the rules
you might be the first f1 fan ive seen defend it lol
Because it was legal 😂
they banned it because they don’t like rear wing movement like that and obviously your car shouldn’t have mini drs, thats self explanatory
even if its technically legal, its still absolute bs and borderline cheating
plus it was ‘legal’ because it passed tests, not because it was in line with the regulations
yes
Well when the FIA says it complies then its not bs
what
Its just another innovation that got shut down cos of complaints
If being smart and innovative in bs then sure
^^^
the fia isnt a holy group that does no wrong
My bad guys! Innovation is cheating now!
no its in a grey area where you shouldn’t complain when it gets banned
that is so much different than regular innovation
Damn what happened to Hamilton, I missed the qualifications 😔😔😏😏
But they are ones who controls the sport and keeps the teams in check 🤷🏻♂️
to be fair, it was a loophole in the rules, FIA didn't intend for it to exist
essentially it was basically legal until the FIA wanted to nerf it
you cant just label it innovation and group it into every standard innovation
They still said it complied with the rules.
they are also the ones that gave max community service for saying fuck
if you read articles on it, what it actually says is that an fia spokesperson stated it was legal because it passed tests
they arent a very cool group yk
this
Yea but on a live program with children watching
legal=cheating?
Lol, yea that was absolute bs 🤣
I get that its a small thing but yea
literally what fucking children watch the press conference
Alot
the president or whatever his title is loves pissing on teams and promoting "safer racing and viewing"
literally maybe worldwide 3
But its not just that its also sky sports that they have to comply with.
no little kid gives a fuck
Dont they censor the swear words?
yet we're letting fuck fly under the radar for mcl and mer
the president also tried to racefix 🔥
In the race yes but i dont think they do in the press conference, i dont know why
real 🔥
mbs is horrible lol
I mean....
Ill put 2021 behind him
Barring 2021...maybe?
no masi was definitely worse because he spun a wheel to decide what to do
Other than 2021 he was fine
Can't exactly disregard a whole year of his tenure tho
‘if you ignore this huge list of errors made he’s fine’
I just thought of sum funny, redbull complained about mclarens wing right? Why didnt christian take his own advice and change his fucking car
Also..can't exactly disregard what happened when he basically decided a title fight
Yes, I do think Masi fucked up despite what other pundits say, but either way teams were also complicit in that nonsense
Exactly lol 😂
whats even worse is that he let the cars go out in belgium 2021 qualifying, what was he thinking 💀
That was when lando had the big crash right?
That was when Norris had that really scary crash at Eau rogue right?
Yep
Seb literally had to stop on a cool down lap to check on lando because it was such big one
Just cos it put the drivers lives at more risk than ever
And then sent the cars out for 3 pointless laps behind the safety car so that the drivers scored points 💀
I mean i think he just did it cos hes a good guy who cares about everyone
He did for mick multiple times
No spa race can be worse than the one with the pile up on lap 1, i forget what year it was
I think v10 era?
1998
I will never forget Murray's commentary
Like they did with suzuka in 2022 i think it was
Nah bruh the start we got was infinitely funnier
I mean, they piled up on a standing start
At that point they're doing medium speed bumper cars but yes, they should've red flagged the fuck out of that race
the fortunate thing about that 1998 race was that the cars all crashed out of t1 because it was so wet
far better than making it to eau rouge
Yea much better
We saw how bad that could be in f2, let alone f1.
It was anthoine hubert right
yeah, i mean that was in the dry rather than the wet but it showed how dangerous the corner can be
Exactly
Even in the dry bad crashes can happen
Can only imagine how much worse that would have been in the wet
Any race that is super wet at spa or japan or any track with high speed corners should be delayed
Purely for driver safety
Yeah they never race in the wet really in feeder series now
With the new f2 cars they have more downforce now right?
Atleast the wing looks like it would have more
yeah they’re also ground effect now
So theyre much faster
So its smart to not run them in the wet
F1 on the other hand... bit fucking dumb to race the fastest track cars in the rain...
Man i dont wanna watch highlights of race and quali. Why is foxtel being shit.
F1TV Pro you can only watch 2024 season stuff on Foxtel set top box in australia
And i dont have sky sports and id rather not pay for that.
Ok theyre re running the sprint rn so ig ill watch that
Damn can only go back to lap 5
Checo fighting with a VCARB is FUCKING WILD
Max have to win this
Or were goin to have Singapore GP all over again
Thank you George Russell in unison
I want to see checo do something lol
.truth
Prost > Senna
it’s 7 in the morning boutta experience the drive of the century from lewis (he’ll barely make it to p12)
Race Recovery for him Later
can this season just end already
to tell a driver to get out the way for someone coming on a hotlap?
mercedes are torturing the goat
Oh, nah he can survive for 6 more GP’s and 2 sprints
Then he can wear red and deal with the Ferrari fans hating him when he doesn’t succeed
Before I criticized Yuki for being “too aggressive” - Liam’s the more aggressive one 😭
Sometimes, It's Driver beating their Teammate
even with this damn rookie george russel, he always cracks under pressure
Russell a rookie?
big one
rookie composure when underpresser
you cant be crashing in the wall with a car that is not in pole contention, What are you pushing for?
What’s with everyone hating on Liam when he’s just trying to do a job?
Because everyone is salty he replaced Ricciardo with 6 races to go
what did he do wrong?
Not be DannyRic
to hell with danny ric man he wasted everybodys time
how is merc torturing oscar piastri???
I WANNA HEAR THE DUTCH ANTHEM AGAIN TMR
Nah, we hearin' Star spangled banner tomo for the goat, logan sargeant
or America, Fk yeah, depends on what they feel
Guys I can’t wait for Logan sargeant to take Sergio Perez’s rb seat
Nah, he riding car 21 and gonna take the win
while doing pit stop by himself
Bro gonna defeat both Guido and Max/Lando
Mcqueen will win
W meme 😂😭😭😭
Mcqueen gave up a championship cause sportsmanship and cause he views the trophy as an "empty cup" he aint gonna win 
No shade on the goat yo
Did Dinoco push too hard that he crashed on his own? I know my goat 
alonso just salty he couldnt get passed the rookie 💀
bwoah
Even though Lawson isn’t a rookie
just rusty
And probably slightly mad he has a new car penalty to serve that isn’t his fault
Hi guys
So far, David Crofty Iconic Lines of this Season was from Silverstone when Lewis Hamilton made his 9th Win
Those Lines "What a Victory. Hamilton is Back!" will be so Iconic
I was waiting for this race for so long and now I found out its at midnight in my timezone 😢 
VER SAI LEC NOR PIA RUS ALO MAG PER HUL
points
im calling it
Gasly did great in quali but he’s in a French tractor
hii
George pushed the car too hard
He tried to compensate for the loss of performance by overdriving the car. Lewis found the same issues. Seems to be a limited car, which has extreme pace but only in very specific circumstances
Ironically, he did a really good job, the quali lap he was on had him in 2nd at that point... but that's kind of the issue, he was so utterly on the limit that the car had nothing to give.
Welp
Hi
hi
after seeing lando's sprint start, I'd say he'll get p2
obviously might be delusion, but the last few races atleast he's not messed up his start at all
max will take the inside line into turn 1 and most possibly take lead, but i doubt lando's gonna lose that much considering he's pretty good at tyre conservation
I missed qualis
We're in this together I missed it as well cuz of time zone😭😭😭
It's been too long and I was kinds preoccupied with studies so I forgot abt it T_T
Then I came back and saw the bot ping and it was hours ago 😔
russel ruining like 4 drivers lap
u mean in sprint yeah well he blocked him on a dirty mode and alonso got mad
Lawson didn't really block him though
he just kept the door closed
he made a switchback, got in front, and positioned his car perfectly so Alonso has to yield
rookie had a veteran driver malding ☠️
Yeahh even I missed the starting of sprint cuz of studies
tsunoda please beat perez it would be so fucking funny🙏🙏🙏
COTA is a good circuit.
ive been enjoying my time
Cota is a great circuit
a REAL circuit
unlike those streek beat roads made for carriages
but street circuits make money so you get street circuitrs
there are only a handful real racing tracks left on the calendar
and lando can’t catch up to max i think bc the RB is faster in COTA
It's one of the best circuits imo
Combines some of the best corners and features of different tracks
Like s1 is practically maggots and beckets copy pasted
I mean there's a few great street circuits
Singapore, baku, jeddah (imo)
But i do agree most of the time purpose built tracks are often better
Like spa, silverstone, monza etc
Some of the best tracks
Guys, Russel just wanted to help a fellow Englishman and wanted to pay respects to fallen American hero Logan Sargeant by doing his signature in his home race
George got nothing to do except crash and cost Mercedes
Tractorcedes fr fr

🗣️
ITS RACEDAY RAHHHH
yo chat race predictions?
SAI-VER-LEC
piastri and sainz on the podium
verstappen up there too
hamilton and norris round out top 5
Sainz needs to be in the podium
verstappen in the podium places
lando dotd because that's been happening for a while now
riccardio got it last time
and piastri before that
last race
deserved
and leclerc before that
monza
but yeah lando has won way too many dotd
yes
but yh im just saying not recently
some dotd lando didn't even deserve
he won so many undeserved at the start
i see
ikik
i liked norris since lik 2019 so i cant stop liking cus hes hated now
Norris is kinda overhated at this point
Sure, this season is not WDC-level from him but it gets too much
huh
Literally nothing. People just mad that he replaced Daniel
Terrible
DTS fans are silly
idk but it’s stupid.
i love danny ricc, he’s my favorite, but it’s stupid to hate liam
oops i didnt even realize that was 6 hours old
real
altho las veg is a good circuit too
the trash street tracks and spain and mexico can go
besides like. legitimate reasons for hating liam ig
but some of the good street trackshave to stay
He’s worse than yuki
And yuki isn’t good
Defiantly real reason
💀
Daniel Riccardo is one of my favorites I guess
I don’t have a real reason
I didn’t hate on him either
?
na maybe i’m just a liam defender
Lando said McLaren haven’t been the fastest this year what is he smoking I need some
💀💀
did he not see Singapore
Of course first 6 races they weren’t
But the data clearly shows McLaren have gained speed while red bull have lost 0.38 since Bahrain
Oh he's always like that
Like the McLaren was not the fastest car from Miami to Singapore, which is literally half a season
The McLaren though is not the fastest at COTA, Ferrari seems to be
Max is just being Max
I know sometimes it looks like he’s making excuses for his mistakes
💀💀why does he say things for his haters to hate more
GOD!! I love F1 now,Is this the race where Max win again? or Lando fuck up? Where is Ferrari back? Is Where K mag is gonna K mag someone? Can Perez be good? Ocon is gonn a be a Bitch? Lando V Piastri Drama?
Carlos win
Could be? The races are very unpredictable
Yea but many races he’s been the fastest it has been team mistakes
I disagree
What
Yea me personally want max win but Ferrari looks fast on mediums
And hard
I just want Ferrari to headbutt Redbull and Mclaren on every race.. I don't care about the WDC or the WCC.. Just Win or Atleast challange them Ferrar..
can say the same for mercedes
that will make for an exciting season
Oh yeah, They fell from the grace so hard
I just think russel and lewis were never a great pair…
Mercedes just made an appearance for 4 races this season and then dissappeared again
competition among drivers is the key to getting the most out of a bad car… look at the improvement curve of mclaren’s pace
I’m on the first shuttle out to trackside YAY
the worst images in the world cuz i dont wanna be rude akfbsj
Trackside? The race is in 7 hours
why so early?
Na it’s actually stupid. Like they are just people, trying to do something that they have dreamt of
what are you gonna do for 7 hours
there’s like 3 different races before f1
two masters champions one porsche
and also you HAVE to be on the first shuttle out if you want a prime spot
i plan on bringing out my camping chair and napping between races till then
i think i might not do t1, i might go back to t5-6 today
In this video, we break down why the 2024 Formula 1 title fight is effectively over. After a dominant win in Singapore, many thought Lando Norris had a real shot at closing the gap to Max Verstappen. But after a lackluster performance at the Austin Grand Prix and sprint race, it’s clear that Norris is falling behind, both on track and mentally. ...
makes more sense
because there’s already 300 people in front of me even though i left on the first shuttle out
cant see it from here but the walk to the front entrance is still very long
I see… have a great race tho!!
Dam , good luck
lewis and george are literally the closest driver pairing on the grid bro what
nah max and checo are bro what are u on
feel bad for noris
Hamilton 19th 💀 💀
i know, crazy
My girlfriend was actually so upset with that
i know how she felt
She couldn’t watch the quali since she was out but i was like updating her and such and told her about george and she was like “george lock in bro..”
lol
Hopefully she can watch the grand prix with me today, and hoping stuff turns around for lewis
you'll never guess
kmag is gonna win 😭
if kmag wins ill donate 10K to any charity of your choosing
chose my bank account
that will be up to astro
Time to create a charity
lool
he will harness the power of toyota gazoo racing 😭
if haas gets p5 in wcc then can u donate 10k to any charity?
honestly, I get it, depending where you live or you drove across state for the race, and sunday is being the most low activity day of the week, people are gonna show early
is this like crack of dawn
yep. right as the sun rose 7 am
but ive been awake since 3 am
here’s the view i’ve got.
That’s cool
The bike 🔥
the random dude walking past 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
i might die at race start tho fr
the heat is gonna be insane again
Whats the temperature?
So hot cos lando is there
bro he lost like, 2 points
i swear some f1 fans turn rabid when there's a chance at a title, then become depressed when sais rival loses a point
doesn't he pretty much have to rely on max messing up now?
I think there's still 150 points up for grabs
More than that
No?
Like 170~
It's a rocket ride from here to seasons end besides that 3w break between Brazil and Vegas
I watched the sprint and qualifying yesterday irl
it was so cool
was my first time
same !
im here right now lol
ill have fun fs🫡
Landos lap time was higher than max's right?
who won quali i missed the game
lando iirc
better than max winning i guess
im gonna buy a huge pizza for the race but im starving now still got a bit of time 😦
Lando qualifying pace after Canada
can someone explain what’s with beyonce and f1 rn seeing so many clips
he did a Charles leclerc yesterday
he's gonna do a Leclerc today and lose the pole because the car isn't there
It depends of the tyres honestly
Strategy is slightly better since the triple header
Max seems like hes back tho
WHY DO TIMEZONES EXIST
I AM NOT WATCHINT THIS RACE SO LATE
y
we'll see how this goes
atb max
solution two pizzas
garlic bread
Would go hard fr
oh la la
Now im hungry 😦
lol i already made desert
Valid
100%
garlic pizza bread is AMAZING!!!
yes
its kinda like a tradition or me, eat the best food during f1 races
His race pace is worse than Hulkenberg's, but 6 poles in 10 races is crazy
I don't really like garlic bread
aw shucks
except senna actually led lap 1 of the gp when he did
(most of the time
probably()
first message is by owner
lando's race pace throught the season
Don't diss my boy Bruno like that
haha
The problem is, the gap of catching up is closing fast, I did the math, even if Lando won every race from today to Abu Dhabi, all Max needs is to finish behind him in second and the championship is his or simpley win more races
I did the counting since Singapore, for Max to lose the championship he'd have to finish behind Lando by 2 places
does that include fastest lap?
It does
If Max wins today with fastest lap, I don't think there's much hope for Lando
And Max was looking strong in sprint and quali
Im in a pickle, I dont want Redbull to win the WCC because of what they did to my honey badger but I also dont want Norris to win the WDC. Anyone on the same page as me haha
If Max wins this race, and performs consistently at the rest of the season, its over for Lando's title bid
It depends, they could potentially catch up but it depends if McLaren loses points cause they have a signifigant lead rn
WCC is far more up for grabs compared to the WDC
It depends if Norris can survive after Turn 1
I want Lando to push for more wins before this season's over, but Max's return to form causes doubts
Did they change the race time? It shows as 2 hours earlier than previously.
It can also be a Sainz win today, dude has been driving crazy this weekend
my carlando heart
It will def be a good race today regardless, this season is so much more competitive
7 different winners and checo isn't one of them
That's funny and sad at the same time ahah
depends if you are a redbull fan haha
Seems to be the same for a few days. Not sure if it was different before that
I am but if they keep him next season, I won't be
I may have been confused yeah
The key aspect to beat Max would recquire Lando and Oscar doing 1,2 fininishes and force Max into 3rd place 4/6 of the remaining races EACH to outscore Max in the championship
I Don't think this is even possible right now once Max gets a whiff clean air....
we can only hope McLaren perform to maintain their lead for the WCC
Lando has 3 career wins so this is a stretch and then some
windows knows whats up 🔥
who was the last F1 champion to win the season with less than 10 wins?
Well put it to you like this, If Lando wins all of these races, Max just needs P2 each time and Max is still the championship by 12 points
George Russell will start at the Pit Lane
yeah
Lewis 2017. Nico 2016
In fact, Max staying in the podium consistently would beat Lando even if he shows to be dominant
oh Lando is loooking back at Hungary with even more regret haha
George is gonna use the Old Speciations of W15 after losing his Upgrades at Qualifying
How bad are Merecedes that they have to use old parts???
pretty bAD
I expected that from Williams but not Mercedes!
same
Lewis saw the storage room and ran
I mean, Lewis sacrifice his Upgrade
mercedes is cooked
well even if we took that into account and by what-if scenario that Lando decided to disobey orders that day, he'd still be 5 points short from Max
Bring back Niki Lauda from the dead please!
5 points short is better than 12 points
the way i look at it, lando is still better then latiffi
Mclaren best option rn is for Max to suffer a DNF between now and Abu Dhabi
so theres that
this is what you get for cucking everyone out of the final q3 battle 🔥 🔥 🔥
mercedes 18-20 lfg 🔥 🔥
the bar is LOW
they really have to replace checo.. 😭
True but were talking end-game scenario where Lando won all 6 races, he'd need Max out of the podium to secure his chances and I have high doubts of that happening @frank glen
The thing is, they ran out of people lmao
they sacked pretty much all RB juniors haha
So true. Daniel back would be amazing, but we all know how that worked out the last time he was at RB 😭
compared to Max's 24 gap against Lewis at COTA in 2021, this is worse
It would have been a beautiful full circle moment for him. He left the team beacause he didnt want to play 2nd best and now he wanted to end his career where he started!
The redbull car also looks much better after this break so I don't think lando can win all 6. Max will win a couple
With that's said its the end of the title fight
I think Red Bull will be more Blue when joined by Ford
Lando will be lucky to finish ahead of both Ferraris today
True 🥹
The thing is, Max is the only driver so far who manged to nail the 2022 regs
We got Chloe Chambers joining Red Bull Academy next Year
but WCC is something looking forward to i guess
now if RB comes 3rd in the WCC 👀
Hate him or love him; Max is one of a kind. He has so much passion and drive. He takes so many risks.
likely
Jos created a weapon
Not to mention his insane talent
He also said the car doesn't really have an upgrades package so 😬
ferrari only like 34 points behind
and they did amazing at the sprint!!
max isn't outscoring both ferrari's by himself
I feel like Sainz is just going full in rn, to make his last few races unforgettable. His fight with Leclerc yesterday was (maybe a bit dumb) amazing to look at. 🌶️
fr
Amen!!
No upgrades and a history of bottling
It's not looking good
Sainz was on fire
who has the fastest car in COTA?
He really did
RB or Ferrari
No no it is not
McLaren was 3rd I think
Daniel last misson was that fastest lap
Quali pace prob 2nd
My hope is that they maintain their lead in the WCC
If Mercedes get their car sorted then George could also beat Norris today
He deserved to finish the season. Only 6 races left, like... come on 😭 Give that man a proper good bye after all his years in F1
And now FIA got rid of the fastest lap point from next year ofc
Personally, I want Ferrarri to win the WCC if possible
Hey if they win that good for them
The Honey Badger legacy
They definitely have the best lineup on the grid since 2022
fr
FIA is always against Max. Daniels fastest lap point helped Max. So FIA removed it
Yeah McLaren have WCC sorted
Piastri always outscores Perez
Yeah
they should have reformed it to make it open to all dricers and not just the top 10
True!
I feel like Bottas is just here for fun. Didn't he compete with a marathon few weeks ago??
Either that or just whoever has the fastest lap in the top 10 gets the point
unless something crazy happens Im just gonna listen to commentary, not gonna have my screen up for this race.....yet
Piastri has Webber as his manger. Webber is using Piastri as revenege for RB haha
Bottas about to be 23rd in a 20 car championship
My man did not deserve to suffer this fate
we both know the FIA didnt remove it because of that, grow up
fr. bottas did better in merc than what perez is doing
its just at the time everyone thought he was doing terrible
Max drives off into the distance
Norris-Ferrari-George fight for the podium places
That's my guess
RB wanted checo to be Bottas and they got Goatifi
lol
Fr Bottas could win a race on merit
hes the highest scoring F1 driver to have never win a championship and the 4th driver on the grid to have 10 or more wins
yeah
bottas on a good day was actualy very good
was nearly on par with hamilton
Also Lewis favourite Team mate. Fast enough but not fast enough to outpace Lewis
Quite the stat
what went wrong!!!
lmao
It was sarcastic, grow up. Don't be offended right away lmao
As if I would assume they would do that only because of Max
or McKaren got their way lmao
Seems like your saying it’s sarcastic because I called you out on it
Im pretty sure mclaren werent overly too happy with it but lando didnt really care much
You can't assume that if you don't know me. Don't worry. But I'm glad you think you know better ❤️
Danny ric deserved the best
he helped me get more involved with f1
plus the only driver who would smile and laugh on the bad days as well
yeah
🥹
DAMN YOU MARKO
Alright, will they make it into the Top 10?
p18 & pitlane start for merc
wow
He was the sun in F1. His personality is insane. Such a great human being. I feel like he made everyone happy around him
:(
Mercedes bros, since 2021 we have been catching strays
I think lewis could if hes lucky
The curse of Michael Massi still lingers
Screw it, may as well start both from the pit lane
oh yeah forgot about that
7 more grid places to go haha
Yeah just gonna have commentary audio on for the race
if that's the case
hes already gone up 2 places and we havent even started the race
crash t1 im calling it
Didn't that happen to Norris at Baku haha
yeah it did
i want to see the sc again
Honestly hoping for a safety car somewhere
its been ages
we all have been saying that but since Logan left, no more safety cars haha
friendly reminder we mute for wishing ill on people and hoping for a crash definitely qualifies
oops mb
Maylander will be watching reels today also
i never said i was hopingg im saying it's far too likely for a t1 crash to happen
and there hasnt been a sc in ages
but sorry regardless
AI took away his job , Now its VSC since the last few races 😭
When was the last safety car
canada i think
That seems far too long surely not 😳
dear cowboy ric,
lol git gud scrub
all the best,
he wasnt able to yee his last haw
yeah its been ages
Ricc getting ousted before the season's over then the quesion if he shows up at COTA looks humiliating
its been 4 months since the sc last was seen
I really was shocked how McLaren/Ricciardo just wasn't working out
yeah nah its unlikely the hilly turn 1 and wide environments of COTA sort of prompts the drivers to give space to not cause incidents
yeah
George from the pitlane ffs, and Lewis starts p19
17
lmaooo
Who got punished
since george is starting from the pitlane and lawson has a 60 place grid penalty
yeah same
georgey boy took a new PU?
nah its because they had to fix his car from his car yesterday i think
Na the team worked on the car the whole night breaking some article
ahh fair
someone said on twitter before the penalty that no matter where george and lewis start they’ll always finish near together
and how they got their wish so conveniently
hello
😭
who s win race?
new series
probably shouldve have bet a few dollars on Max, but I never tried sports betting to know how it works
F1 İNDİA
yeah idk how it works either lol
how does stroll NOT look photoshopped lol
Fantasy team taking a huge L
bottas will start in front of both mercedes 💀
russell from the pitlane tf
They might plan Z again
And race eachother
Into the gravel
Let's hope not though
Yesterday was so wild
like they nearly did in the sprint
YES
His team radio says it all
yep
"what are you going to do? fire me again?"
Sainz does care
"Let's catch em, let's go!"
But he doesn’t care THAT much about the Ferrari championship or Leclerc’s P3 battle with Piastri
yeah he cares about himself which is is fair

Meanwhile le Charles
Getting passed again in the sprint
And then taking it back
And then getting passed again
Russell Pitlane start
And then going wheel to wheel through the S's
Man
this weekend just been awful for merc
One FP was a gamble
Hamilton probably not otherwise they would’ve announced it already
leclerc shouldve gotton norris at the end
just a bit unlucky
Idk what went through mercs head putting a major update on a sprint weekend
They never dial it in that well with 1 fp session
New Floors 0/2 in F1
First Williams
Now Merc
But not a DQ for Merc
Just bad performance
Apparently lewis offered his set of upgrades to russel after he crashed since merc had no spares
Well yeah i think lewis knows that the car was shit anyway but that was nice of him
yeah
Russell probably prefers old spec after what happened in quali
Mercs weekend has been a shambles man
Merc this weekend
First Lewis now George starting from the pit lane
Thankfully won’t happen again since setup has been changed. The old setup (FP1, SQ + SR) was harsh on the tires and caused insane amounts of degradation
new setup did look promising for mclaren
much better quali
BREAKING: George Russell will start the United States Grand Prix from the pit lane due to repairs made after his qualifying crash
#F1 #USGP

we'll see how the race goes
Norris has (arguably) elite tire management and race pace but even that couldn’t help with the old setup but thankfully it’s changed
Max also seems very confident in the car
First weekend I’ve seen he hasn’t called it shit in a while
yeah. it'll be a good race thats for sure
😭
F1 GP TODAYYYYYYY LETS GOOOOOo
Ferraris looking strong as well
indeed
I just feel bad for Merc😭
Went from being less than a tenth off pole to starting from back of the grid
Do you think it’s cause of the changes they made?
The car had been unstable pretty much all weekend until recent in the SR and Quali
The more oversteery setup with unpredictability was actually in fact faster
maybe
i think hamilton wouldve gotton through to q2 if it wasn't for that mistake
and probably q3 aswell
Definitely
Idk what happened to his confidence in the car
rip merc
first lewis out in q1 then george starting from pits cuz of the crash
Russel destroyed the new upgrades, and there were no spare upgraded parts, so they worked the whole night to put on the old spec.
I don't understand why he had to push so hard
ever since the summer break merc have seemed to have fallen off
This team has a big problem
fr austria, silverstone and spa were flukes
But the performance of the Merc literally shifted over night
so let me tell you something, f1 drivers dont succeed from driving slow, hence why george was pushing hard to get the highest position he could achieve, hope this helps!
Well the skill for that is above his ceiling.
I get the crash happened but prior to that he was flying for majority of the weekend
one mistake doesnt define a driver
That's rookie copium
GG Russel
💀
atleast with the pitlane start he cant do a 2022 repeat
Australia? Singapore last year?
Funny how it happened while Sainz was leading the race
Copium? What am I coping about?
Pls be not Singapore GP all over again
brazil '22, austria '24, belgium '24, spain '23,
mistakes dont define drivers, their success' do!
Belgium DSQ
thats cant be a hard concept to wrap your head around
it was a DQ, but before that he drove extremley well
Austria picked up a free meal.
and if ur going to sit there and tell me that the only reason he drove well was because he had 1,5kg less than every other car then you need go back to pre school
you have to be in it to win it
no Russell terrorist memes pls
what are pit lane start equivalent to in terms of position? p20?
yes
p19 if another car is also starting from pitlane
RPM is not happy
oh no, anyway
Merc replacing parts now due to already bad starting positions?
drivers parade in 10 minutes TAAAAAAAAH
Yayyyyy
oh yeah Cos how is it to be there?
george didnt had a bad starting position but his car had several damage due to the crash of yesterday
so pitlane start
yes

Mercedes is going down down down
Let's GOOOO!
Oops I'm too early
2 hours still? 😭
what team yall cearing for
so i heard george is starting from the pit lane? 💀
LETS GO FERRARI
yeah
My faves are the top 4 +/- the rookies
shame for that, wanted them to be in aces today to disrupt the podium
oh well
one month is too long inbetween races
summer break?
WEC be like
nah
they have a minimum month between races
did yall hear lewis hamption is comeing to ferrari and saiz is going to williums
yes back in feb.
lollllllllllllllllll
I heard Pastor Maldonado is going to Lotus in 2014
wait what no way
BRUHH
FANGIO TO MERCEDES?!?!!?!?!!?!!!!!
🤯
will mercedes score points today?
Only if Hamilton complains about his car, then it is 50/50 . For Russell, it depends on his car. Also, I have no idea what I'm talking about.
Is there a chance of rain
Ham can only give feedback and they try to accomodate, cause he cant attend meetings anymore so he goes home early lul
ahh
Don't think it ever rained in COTA
yeah I don't think it has either
How long till the race starts?
2 hrs minus 20 min
Wait is F1 at 12
1 hour and 40 minutes
Okay
Lol okay
Gosh i renember the sprint like it was 5 minutes ago but it was already yesterday 💀
well, you can watch the pre-race show early
I stand corrected then

It's in an hour
Read the timings wrong dam
real
Lewis's weirdest hair moment
I’m convinced more than 50% of the server never saw Lewis between 09 and 16
More then 50% don’t know F1 pre-DTS
what are the chances hamilton wins today
I got into it in 2017, then took it more seriously next year
When did DTS come out again
2018
I only watched the episodes that had Fernandos 2023 season
Never watched the drama show so 🤷
I haven’t watched anything else
i was like 1 year old and my dad apparently made me watch silverstone 2008
i dont remember but that’s what he said was my first f1 race
Don’t blame you
I’m not interested in that nonsense
I did like the Nando episodes though I saw a couple clips on IG
Do you remember what your first race with consciousness was
is there a remove danica Patrick button on my sky remote
2013 british gp
Sadly not
i watched quali and race
What if I press the glorious red button
Could work👀
My first race I ever watched was Spa 2010 when I was visiting family
I wish I remember the first ever race I watched
only started watching in 2022 but i've had some knowledge of f1 since like 2012
The only thing I remember was that they used the old tyres , the purple and the pink ones . Probably around 2010 - 2014 ?
send tier list link
my first race i ever watched is Hockenheim 2018
The reason I started supporting McLaren was because I used to play all the Need for Speed games as a kid with my older brother and cousins
And I always used the McLaren
Then I found out they had an F1 team so I was like I might as well
Nice

Yea the colour of the tires was diff since they had the super softs I think
Yep
that race was a horror movie
I always sometimes go back and rewatch the 2020 races
whoops
whyd you copy it
So before every tyre compound was given a specific color but nowadays whichever 3 compounds are selected for the race are given red yellow and white based on relative softness, irrespective of how soft they actually are
my V key is austism
maybe they will return, i read that in the next years Hockenheim could return as the track has found a sponsor to host the f1 event
oh man i thought the race started now
Yeah , but I specifically remember the purple and the pink ones
In 1 hour
what is the zak brown & danica thing currently on sky
Yes the supersoft purple and hypersoft pink still exist, they're just labeled differently depending on the race
yeah unfortunately
Ah I see , didn't know that
bahrain 2022 was my first race and i'll never forget it, i was supporting red bull and bought a red bull energy drink to support them even though i don't like the taste that much...only for both max and checo to DNF toward the end of the race 💀
😭
hey at least u arent a ferrari fan
that's true depression
For example in a race Pirelli may decide that they're gonna give hypersoft supersoft and soft tyres
They will be labeled red yellow and white
In another race Pirelli decides soft medium and hard
They will also be labeled red yellow and white
Before the colors were an absolute marker of the softness of the compound, now they are only relative markers of the softness of the tyres to each other
that was an overdose of hopium for Ferrari fans
Lmfaoooo
how does pirelli decide this though, just depending on whichever tires they want?
unfortunately i have a small soft spot for ferrari
😨
i wouldnt recommend u to be a ferrari fan
I see, thanks for the facts that I missed back then
Track temps, condition of road
pretend ricciardo is lawson
bad list
L hulkengoat ranking
sainz goat
✅
i just think sainz is overrated
Why you dislike hulkenberg 💀
i dont truly hate any drivers
the race is in an hour, right?
yeah i am and it's not reccomended to be, some therapy sessions will be needed just after the first race you see as a Tifoso
Exactly
hes a bit annoying
just "some"? 😭
How so?
yeah
with all the cash i spent on therapy i could've bought a ferrari
oh yeah what happened with lawson and alonso after quali
We are checking, we are checking...
