ultra unfair
checo in a sauber 🔥
not a single chance
Dawg valtteri could have scored points in china if gis car didnt break down
valtteri with a racelong pit
real tho
Perez is like my ex. Always disappointing.
actually zhou finished higher in baku too lol
8th when ur teammate is 1st is embarassing
At the start of 2024 Hamilton was p9 with 70+ point gap to checo who was p2
And now Hamilton is p6 with 40 point gap to checo who is p8
Ollie will remain replace Kevin until Sunday
the fall off is crazy
so we have oliver bearman
olivia bearwoman when
man I feel old all of a sudden
realising I'm just one year younger than lindblad like bro 😭
yeah he's 05
insane
kids about to be making millions and i've got a penny to my name
lindblad is 07
we boutta have a driver in the near future born after hamilton got his first win
😭
real bro
it could be me
could be me too
if only my parents were 10times richer and i knew about f1 15years earlier
man it would be so perfect actually
i did karting at age 7
but dropped it because no funding
Could have Perez or strolls seat
because when I was born kubica nearly won championship
in the future? who knows
and covid hit right after I stopped
new zealand
#fuckbmwsauber
daaamn what time is it for you rn?
10:47am
damn lol
He did great today
Fucked up the last lap tho
we are pretty much exact opposites of eachother in the world rn
Let's pray for Kevin to hope he get well soon
does anyone know what time quali is tomorrow in the uk everythings telling me different things
Could have easily backed out and started again
your up is my down lol
Ollie actually got Lance Stroll get strolled
6-7pm
Calculate 16hrs from now
thank youuuu
no worries
@viscid gust just in case
<t:1730570400:F>
should convert to your timezone automatically
thank youuuu
np
First time this season I’ve thought… Lando can do this.
That McLaren is a rocket ship. He can half the championship this weekend
what he really needs is a Max DNF in a main race somewhere
then it will really be close
How many races after this? 3?
yeah
Because I reckon he can take 24 out of the 47 points lead off of max this weekend.
Las Vegas, Qatar(sprint) and then Abu Dhabi
there are still 120 points up for grabs maximum btw
Sainz fell out of contention last race despite winning
and now Piastri is close to the brink
realistically it's just the top 3 that have a chance
its not just that... Ollie tomorrow in the Haas coming through, Russell will think hes got a car as quick as Max. Max needs a lot to go his way or the championship could take a real turn this week.
Max divebombing wont matter if the drop off continues as we see.
i dont see anyone other than max winning it to be honest
unless he bins it or gets a dnf
or two
if mclaren gets a 1-2 in quali again i think it's gg for max tbh
i can't see him beating both of them
max has what a 53 point lead?
gg for the race i mean
true

Mazepin 2021 🤝 Zhou 2024
Fun fact: zhou is the only driver along with the already fired sargeant to don't reach q3 this year
When did bottas get q3 ??
China
In race quali or sprint
Wow
Okay
.
For what?
fucking get this: he apologised immediately
This Brazilian track was shit lol
so the fia decided to spare him of a community service
Well that shouldn't matter, if it's a rule then it's a rule
Huh, they managed to both show favoritism and yet also enforce their BS rule. That's impressive, I didn't expect them to manage both
€10k is pocket change for charles and half of it is suspended provided he doesn't do it again in 12 months
So with this knowledge in hand, it seems way better to just not apologize and swear all you want. You'll just wind up marshalling for every Formula E race of the season
Giving a fine for swearing is insane
real
was max even fined
didn't they say the same thing or something
picking up litter 😂
they'll just fine all the drivers
nah but get this
leclerc apologised
so all is good
real
you still have to pay €10k k thx bye
but he still broke the rule though
He got community service once before and had to help marshal a Formula E race. So honestly, not even that bad
"new rule"
apologizing lessened the sentence
not new
lol, last time out ?
its been a rule since 1972
Previously unenforced counts as new I think
We've got plenty of video of Max swearing in interviews before this
i dont agree with it being new because it wasnt enforced for a long time
newly enforced, sure
My problem with it is that it wasn't announced at all to being enforced again
the rule can exist, that's fine you need to be presentable on the TV's, no big deal
...but at least give them a heads up 😭
but tbf since it being enforced we see less ************ radios
with swearing
it takes like away the heat of the moment
i miss that a bit
went from montoya yelling "fucking raikkonen" to this
something must've gone horrifically wrong
The FIA has also updated its International Sporting Code to redefine misconduct, connecting negative speech by drivers to an increase in online abuse towards officials.
lmao. Drivers can't swear because it leads to the stewards getting cyberbullied
seb 2016 mexico ☠️ ☠️ ☠️ ☠️ ☠️ ☠️
Is there any conclusive reason why horner was seen leaving from williams hospitality?
c o f f e e
Hilariously, yeah, coffee
What did leclerc say
James Vowles confirmed it, so I mean, take that as you will
only the most heinous and vile word you've ever heard of in human history
according to ben sulayem anyway
according to literally everyone else it's just that swear word you use when you're frustrated or something
fucked
i heard something about verstappen getting a penalty is that true (and what is the penalty)
New engine, 5 grid places
someone should make a oscar piastri edit with the song melbourne sound
He gets it for a new PU
Specifically the ICE.
Which he first took a penalty for in Spa.
Why
My piece is that they only fined leclerc for swearing and not community service
Apparently Leclerc is under investigation for swearing at the Mexican GP post-race conference.
Getting fined is better than community service?
FIA is being cooked
i mean in the sense yeah they have so much money, versus the free time drivers have
Interesting that we rather let rich people get away with things by simply paying it off rather than doing some good in the world
"no swearing" in a sport where cars crash at 300 kph
the drivers dont actually do the community service half the times anyways
Is there a session on now?
no
i thought only max has been given it
other drivers have previously
what drivers
“no swearing” in a sport that promotes gambling
and use of nicotine
idk search it up, but i think magnussen has previously
i did but all that coming up is max, unless google just doesnt want to show other drivers
isn’t there like f1 kids that filters out the swearing anyways?
google is dogshit
true but idk how else to search it up
it was during the FIA conference so no
Sao Paulo
F1: Sprint (Brazilian Grand Prix)
<t:1730556000:R>
i fell asleep rip, just watched it now --||woop woop front row||
I told you specifically not to sleep mann
but the mclaren is actually impossible to beat rn deadi
they were so rapid tf leading everyone by 2 tenths
What does that have anything to do with what I said
Besides we were talking about a convo from like 10 hrs ago
i imagine a lot will be running on slightly used mediums?
its a gamble on what teams think will happen with weather
I would assume
how many laps is the sprint?
One third
23-24 laps
24
yeah
okay it is 24
i wonder if people will go hards cause they were the mediums last year + its probs gonna rain so wont need for gp proper?
interesting interesting
This was the strategy last year https://www.autoracing1.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/f1/brazil/tire-strategies.jpg
Tyres are softer,track is different this year
1 stop is mediocre, but 3 is stupid
they'll take 2 stops
most likley rain though
yea
Yea but how much and for how long do you think
Also is it a dry quali?
hope its one of those off and on races where races can be made or ruined with timing
those are the best
it should be 24
it is 24
a lot
I don’t need that for my health
Especially in a race where the points gap can be damn near halved
i need the lawson points
^^^^^
Putting the Toro Rosso in the top 10
this is max turn 1
Crazy
replace red bulls for mclarens
Hungary 2021
😭
yeah
Yo that crash was actually crazy
Shoutout to Nando for slowing Lewis down so Ocon could get his win
And shoutout to Ocon for defending against Seb for all them laps too
That was a big ask
secret ending to this year is max gets a DSQ from championship by taking out lando in qatar and leclerc wins by 2 points after winning 2 of the last 4 races
I’ve got Leclerc winning Vegas
This is pure delusion.
But the McLarens will be this strong again in Qatar
The track is built for it
Which is why I genuinely haven’t lost all faith yet
it's fun
Do you guys think the Mercs will be any good in terms of race pace
no
Or atleast if George can put something together
merc is cooked
It’ll be Baku 2.0
no
and they wont get better this year
cause they almost reached cost cap
Cause they’ve been binning it😭
How many accidents have they had in the last 2 GPs alone
yes
So the Mercs won’t be a problem for Max come race time
Cause the way I’m looking at it he’s gonna start maybe 8/9th for the race
meanwhile checo fighting RB and haas lol
What’s everyone podium predictions
He's gonna pick up Leclerc at the start, pressure the McLaren then finish P3
Why does Stroll always sound like he doesn't want to be there?
Does he have the race pace for that though
Especially over 24 laps?
- Norris 2. Sainz 3. Max
oscar lando crash late on
Plus I don’t think Leclerc will give in easily
causes them to dislike eachother
It's going to be enough.
Lucky for him Max doesn’t hate him
hamitlon rosberg stuff
Verstappen has the inside line and gets better reaction times.
Will we see another max vs Norris battle again this week
if we do Norris is fumbling bad
You think he pushes him wide if Leclerc opts for the outside line to get the inside for turn 2 and better traction for turn 3
Mclaren is rocketship
Not possible
max cant push the tractor that far surley
The gap is too big
This isn’t Austin where the cars were pretty level
Max is an absolute machine
Don’t get me wrong
Unless we have an early SC and Max makes up positions.
But even he has limits
i woulndt say level....
I can bet that Max will start on the hard.
that could be cool
The MCL was arguably the 3rd best car on the grid and the only reason Lando had pole was because of George’s bottle
Let’s be honest
max passes lerclerc then boom saftey car, kinda like mexico
That early though
was still faster then the rb tbh
true
3rd best car? They were faster than Ferrari, but they gave their positions to them.
In COTA?
Bro be serious
If you had said Mexico then I could maybe hear it
Norris was catching the Ferrari's in his 2nd stint.
Verstappen prevented him.
The MCL was faster on hard compound tires
RB was really quick on Saturday, on race day they lost some ground.
On mediums they weren’t
Norris isn't aggressive enough and thinks Max is still his friend on the track.
Same thing in Mexico where we have to wait for the MCL to get on hards with a lower fuel load to see it shine
That's because Ferrari manages the medium tyre very well and extracts a lot out of it, that's not something new. First time I saw such thing was Britain 2021 when Leclerc held off Hamilton for over 25 laps on that tyre.
- Norris
- Piastri
- Leclerc
Though I think Leclerc could overtake Piastri depending on McLaren’s strategy and Leclerc’s incredible tire management
Agreed.
Sainz P4 Max P5
That’s what I tink
And even though Piastri is on pole, even if he holds the lead I think there’s at least some what of a chance they’ll enact team orders on the slim chance Norris can take the title
And I know Piastri would be supportive of doing it
I think McLaren will tell him to give the position to Norris
Yeah
But yeah Leclerc has a chance of overtaking Piastri, and it is not slim. Piastri has not been doing as well as Baku/Monza
There’s really no reason not to. Piastri has already proved himself and you never know what accident or DNF could come max’s way
Yeah. I think Piastri has a good chance to hold if he manages to stay in P1 but if he falls back it will be hard to fight with Sainz and max and be behind Leclerc

Yeah I’ll def be keeping a close eye on that turn 1
Things are always extra interesting on a sprint and kind of difficult to judge
This is only my second sprint I’ve seen since I started watched f1 earlier this year
in the fanzone alessandro considered the possibility of bortoleto at kick sauber
yep 80% confirmed then
Is Max’s 5 place penalty in place for both sprint and main race or does it only count for main?
should only count in main cmiiw
Perf thanks!
i hate this sport
lewis’ quali pace has been tragic recently sorry mate
younger lewis was good in quali
destroyed button
and managed to beat ai in 2018 singapore iirc?
It really has been awful
As a Lewis fan I’m half excited half terrified for his Ferrari stint haha
Competitive car definitely but his quali performance will be hurtful to see
You go to channels and roles at the top of the discord
🇳🇱
Hi, did you guys like sprint qualifying today
i think hamilton can be better
Hamilton needs that Ferrari
So Max got community service for saying his car was fucked, but Charles gets fined 10,000 euros (5,000 suspended barring no future incident) for saying fuck at Mexico (only after Max commented about it)?
aint it crazy how sometimes punishments arent the same for same offense
The stewards noted they "do not consider [Charles'] breach reached the same level as the most recent case" mostly because Charles immediately apologized, but we all know Charles responded bc of how they treated Max
it's honestly kinda funny lmao
neither should've gotten a pen for saying fuck lmao
MBS and Herbert are being pussies
it's been in the rules for years now
ik
tho the community service bit is new
The rule itself is fine, personally. The reasoning for the new enforcement of it, and the lack of announcement is not fine
yeah, i'm fine with a no swearing rule, but the way the enforcement was ruled out leaves a lot to be desired (which is true with a lot of the FIA)
because I guess MBS making himself sound like a racist is a good way to tell everyone why you are enforcing it again
LOL
also interesting enough vasseur and wolff swore during a press convo and were both given a formal warning
so max gets community service related to racing, charles gets a 10k euro fine (5k suspended), and vasseur and wolff just getting reprimanded....? all for the same rule violation?
like if the fia wants to enforce the no cursing rule, that's fine, but it should be one punishment for everyone
nah
wdym 💀
max verstappen!!
RAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
i think max making a huge deal about it still just kinda proves why they wanted to target him
i should note this was AD23 tho
they prob knew he would react like this
i think it goes both ways. MBS is enforcing a legitimate FIA rule (tho not in a very good way); Max is entitled to express his opinions about the car
but it's not a good look for the fia either way
he’s in a stressful situation everytime he gets into that car
so obviously he should be able to express himself
tbf the car was shitty various points in the season
esp. since the charles incident was dropped and only revived bc max kept complaining about it
it has been
idk what redbull is doing
yeah but there's also the sentiment of the stewards probably going "yeah we're tired of all the controversy of this guy, full punishment" that charles isn't affected by. it's stupid but that's what happens when you allow discretionary rule enforcement
and it is pretty obvious that charles got off because he apologized right away
i agree - it also doesn't help that johnny herbert was involved in both decisions and johnny herbert already is controversial in the F1 field. this is outside of MV1's fanbase. herbert is a steward while actively involved with gambling-related sponsorships - that's a conflict of interest itself.
the drivers champion keeps the #1 right
he can be affiliated with that gambling org and do what he wants, but he shouldn't be a steward and enforcing rules at the same time.
correct - WDC can run #1 as long as they remain WC
gotchu
i agree with the fact of them holding up max's violation as more extreme than charles but still this is just too silly
Lewis was allowed to run #1 when he was WC but he chose to run his regular #44 instead
i agree too since max could've honestly just made a comment about it, apologized, and moved on and the fia prob would've dropped it
tho i do agree with lewis community service was harsh. they could've just given max a fine tbh
charles knew to apologze right away only bc of what happened to max (i mean, he flat out said "I don't want to be with Max")
max trying to protest this and make his campaign stuff did not help the situation tbh
i think max had a right to be annoyed by the punishment, but he made it a bigger deal than it was
completely agreed
complaining constantly about he got punished for saying fucked is not a hill he should be dying on
it doesn't help when you have inchidents under review with future stewards too
ofc i'm not max so i can't tell him what to do and he wouldn't appreciate fan input like this, but he was just being childish
bro is gonna be slapped with 10s penalties that only deserve 5
the fia was being childish too but
hes able to express himself without swearing im sure
i can't even defend max in mexico sorry 😭
max is an articulate guy. he definitely can.
he's not stupid
max in mexico is the sbinalla meme back to life
i think herbert's excuse about his 5 yr old grandchild watching the press conferences and MBS's rap artist thing was pretty stupid tho to justify the enforcement of the rule tho lmao
bro looked like he was geniunely trying to troll lando the whole race lol
Bro no way he pulled that card
That is just… sad
MBS: "We have to differentiate between our sport - motorsport - and rap music. We're not rappers, you know. They say the F-word how many times per minute? We are not on that. That's them and we are [us]."
Lewis Hamilton, responding: "I don't like how he's expressed it. Saying 'rappers' is very stereotypical and if you think about it, most rappers are black. So really pointed it towards we're not like them So I think taht was the wrong choice of words. There's a racial element here."
ffs
Damn that’s even worse than I thought
For context, I'll give MBS's full quote
MBS on limiting driver swearing
Autosport - Erwin Jaeggi, Sept. 2024
MBS
"We have to differentiate between our sport - motorsport - and rap music. We're not rappers, you know. They say the F-word how many times per minute? We are not on that. That's them and we are [us].
I know, I was a driver. In the heat of the moment, when you think you are upset because another drive came to you and pushed you... When I used to drive in the dust [and something like that happened], I would get upset. But also, we have to be careful with our conduct. We need to be responsible people.
And now with the technology, everything is going live and everything is going to be recorded. At the end of the day, we have to study that to see: do we minimize what is being said publicly?
Because imagine you are sitting with your children and watching the race and then someone is saying all of this dirty language. I mean, what would your children or grandchildren say? What would you teach them if that is your sport?"
MBS goes on to say the FIA approves radio talk on the podcast, but notes "We have rules, and the rules are there for the benefit of the sport and the rules are there to be policed and to be respected also."
how hard is it just to fucking bleep it out like every other broadcast?
In the same interview, MBS also goes on to say his spiel about how there's been more negative comments from drivers and teams toward FIA officials on social media
Literally
they also have f1 kids version lmao
They already do it during the races
wait i just got community service
i'm being so fr they made f1 kids version
if you're so butthurt bc someone said the f word, just let the kid watch the goddamn kids version
but no being fr, they bleep the radio on broadcast, why don't they just bleep the pressers??
Slash commands use a new version of items which need importing on the Dashboard by an admin.
Johnny Herbert on Verstappen's penalty: "There is more swearing than there ever has been. A press conference is not the place for it. Some journalists have said the sport is trying to make robots out of the drivers. That's not the case. You are just asking them not to swear, which I think is the right thing. Most drivers don't swear.
[Talks about how he spoke with Max.]
As stewards, we have a range of tools to punish drivers. We are there to implement the rules and make the decision together. We could have fined him, but we felt it would be more beneficial to get him to do something socially responsible...
It all blew afterwards because he went to the press conference and gave one-word answers then held his own impromptu press conference outside in the paddock.
That showed Max's rebellious streak. I love that side of him, it is what makes Max Max, his honest and outspoken character. But there is a time and a place. Personally, I think there is too much swearing. I don't want my five-year-old grandchild listening to that sort of language."
it takes too much effort
that face
Yeah
Well, He'll be back at Vegas later
And Good Morning Team. Let's get ready today for the Sprint and today's Qualifying
wait vegas is next?
Yes
Vegas babbyyyy
Las Vegas, Here we come
Get your limited edition F1 Peanuts merch
does ollie not qualify for a rookie test anymore?
No
so even after he does the brazilian feature race he's fine?
sprints don't count
Baku was his Early Debut to drive for Haas
ok
so what races count
jeddah and brazil? just jeddah?
He has 3 Race so far in F1
He will return to F2 Later in Qatar for few More Rounds
After that, He and Kimi will be in F1
i thought the fia's rule is rookies can't start over 2 F1 gps
by starting the brazilian gp, that would be his third start (jeddah for ferrari, baku for haas, and now brazil for haas)
no ik that's true from him and kimi
Because it's Important for the Driver
i'm talking about the fp1 rookie tests
Also Ferrari Brazil poster goes hard
bc haas was planning on using ollie for their rookie tests iirc
wait lemme grab what races he was gonna do fp1 for
david bearman is also probably the most stressed f1 parent rn lmao
legit every time i see him at an f1/f2 race he's on the verge of having a mental breakdown from stress 😭
It'll probably interesting on when will McLaren win their Constructors Championship
It's gonna be the First Time since 1998
Bearman FP1 sessions:
Haas: Imola, Barcelona, Silverstone, Hungary, Abu Dhabi
Ferrari: Mexico (originally for Haas but he drove Leclerc's car)
Interesting there
F1 FP1 Young Drive Role
"On one (1) occasion during the Championship, for each car entered for the Championship, each Competitor must use a driver who has not participated in more than two (2) Championship races in their career."'
So Ollie can't run the Abu Dhabi test anymore. Sprint races don't count, but since Haas confirmed he's running on Sunday as well, then he hits his third championship race (Jeddah, Baku, and Brazil)
right?
Ok - that's irrelevant for Haas now. Haas fulfilled their rookie tests with Ollie already (Imola, Silverstone for Kmag and Barcelona for Hulk)
Ferrari ran him for Mexico, so they can't run him again for AD like they did in 2023
One big consequence of this is that with 3 Grands Prix under his belt, Bearman will no longer qualify as a rookie for the end of season test
Do we know if Charles has been punished for the ✨inchedent✨ in the press conference
fine
and that;s about it
10k fine with 5k suspended
yeah
10k euros?
also - do colapinto or lawson have to field a rookie in their car
yes
didn't he have community service as well or is that just a lie I saw online
ik verstappen had it
no, just 10k euro fine with 5k suspended pending no further incident in next yr
That’s A LOT OF MONEY
he's only paying 5k euros unless he curses again lol
not for an F1 team with so much disposable income
good question
i actually don't know the answer
For a broke ass student like me that’s a shit ton of money
yeah like us it is alot
f1 has loads of money to throw away
yeah
but for charles and the team, not so much
colapinto and lawson already ran a car that had an fp1 test (colapinto assumed logan's car and lawson assumed daniel's car). are they different cars bc the numbers are different? lawson still carried daniel's engine pen
wonder what the fia is using the money on
Exactly
He probably also only got fined because he apologized immediately
i would imagine those two wouldnt have to run a test?
oh no my £1 million+ car crashed, I'll just replace it ok mate you go do that, can you also pay off a few things for me 💕
i think they'd be considered the same car in this situation
but i honestly couldnt tell you
i thought piastri and sargeant had rookies in their car last yr
probably
most likely situation
nvm
"Teams fielding a rookie as a full-time driver also don’t need to field another one as a practice substitute"
i'd have to look up who's done rookie testing for williams and vcarb
Ah okay there's your answer LOL
Franco did one for Williams and Ayumu replaced Daniel in Japan
ye
So only Yuki and Alex have to do FP tests
yerp
so wait
for next year then
Note: For 2025 onward, FIA is doubling the mandatory FP1 tests.
McLaren: 4 tests expected (2 for Lando, 2 for Oscar)
Ferrari: 4 tests expected (2 for Charles, 2 for Lewis)
Red Bull Racing: 4 tests expected (2 for Max, 2 for Checo)
Mercedes: 2 tests expected (2 for George, 0 for Kimi (rookie))
Aston Martin: 4 tests expected (2 for Fernando, 2 for Lance)
Haas: 4 tests expected (2 for Esteban, 2 for Ollie (no longer a rookie after Brazil)
VCARB: 2-4 tests expected (2 for Yuki, 2 for Liam/0 for whoever replaces Liam)
Williams: 4 tests expected (2 for Alex, 2 for Carlos)
Alpine: 2 tests expected (2 for Pierre, 0 for Jack (rookie))
Sauber: 2-4 tests expected (2 for Nico, ?? for replacement)
oh wait rheyre doubling? cool
i didnt know it was gonna be 4 tests now
that’s really good imo
ikr
like i knew they were doubling
and i, for some reason, thought that meant 2 total tests
which is what they have now
but it means 2 total tests per car
if colapinto gets the red bull seat im going to kill myself
Why
he would be an amazing addition to redbull
Lawson should get it 😁
because lawson is the better driver
Yeah Lawson is a good contender as well
I would be happy if either of them gets it
anybody but Perez :(
and he's being passed over because colapinto has money behind him. thats the only reason
red bull are so fucked when verstappen leaves
He's a celeb in latin america I think or smth
TRU TRU TRU
Yeah and Redbull will want the money from colapinto to replace the money from perez
that williams sponsor that they got is like the biggest company in latin america
fucking christian horner just sees dollar signs
Nah they got Charles too 😭😭😭
yeahhhhhh
watch another rookie go next to max and get destroyed for the 4th time
Why r they taking it so seriously
no way
Imagine max gets beaten 💀
MBS is an authoritarian wannabe dictator
subscribe
this is not actuallly true is it?
Checks out..
it is
No it is
This was actually from the fia rlly go check twitter
elect someone from an authoritarian country you get authoritarianism
not happening
But they give u tons of investment money so you can't not consider them
i have no clue if im spelling that right im just throwing letters in there
Mate the FIA is straight up tripping at this moment
Nah it's right dw
I mean there’s no way to know
using coarse language is part of the sport
The thing is
he's max
Red bull obviously wouldn’t want it but people would figure out if max’s teammate is faster
And?
💀
These people act like saints when they probably swear all the time lmfao
MAXIMILLION VERSTAAPENUS THE GREAT II
Practically in the motorsport world swears
but red bull are so fukt genuinely. all of their top talent are leaving for other teams. they don't care about their championship results. they're choosing drivers that will bring them the most money instead of trying to develop talent
they dont care because max is insane but when he leaves what do they do
Max is literally keeping them alive lmao
I've heard rumors that Max might replace Alonso at Aston
Sometime in the futureu
*future
Stroll is never leaving huh
Loool
i hope lawson goes to another team. maybe audi
mclaren would be cool but i dont see lando or piastri leaving
Neither 💀
Charles wouldn't get a chance anymore
maybe piastri if he ends up a #2?
F attest
I mbeciles
A round the world

I hate how piastri will most likely need to give lando a position during this sprint
its only a sprint
Mate don’t say I Mbeclies that’s atleast 5000 pounds
Wait fr
McLaren tryna do a Hungary 2024
I mean if one of your drivers has even a slim chance of a drivers championship you’d try get it though
lawson at mclaren would be cool because of the new zealand connection actually
Yessssir😎
oh ur the kiwi i remember
Let's be fair here.. there's no way he's winning lmao
Hahah yeah
Maybe a 2% chance
in 2021 max had it in the bag until he dnf'ed
could happen ahain
again
If max dnf this weekend where it looks like a McLaren win then it’s gonna get really close
I think that’s a rule break on this server bro 💀
Nope straight up McLaren dnf
How 😭 lmao
I want lando to win
Also is that even allowed
I dunno I saw someone get banned earlier for hoping for a crash
Wait will max be given his grid pen for the real race or no?
most of the time its a mute
I think yh
yes, it doesnt affect the sprint
Oh ok
He just has to qualify well
I think he'll do fine
Honestly if I want anyone to win this sunday it's prob lewis
I wanna hear the Dutch national anthem
Nah you already heard it in Austin bro
Oh nvm
I forgot anthem are never played in the sprint
The bear is staying for São Paulo
Yeah I’ve heard of this
For me I didn’t cuz I was sleeping by the time this dropped
Girls around me simp over him so hard 😅
Lawson finishing above Trashrez would feel so good
That’s what we are calling him now 😓
Checo was amazing in the past
We can call him gonerez since he's leaving next year
He was but he got too comfortable
Yeah I guess
We shouldn’t be too harsh on him tho
Why not lmao
Points for McLaren 📈
Mate I want McLaren to win this championship
It’s been too long
They probably will
For ferrari to win we need Oscar to flop and he won't do that
But Charles and sainz have been phenomenal the last couple of races
That's fair but Lando still was able to catch up to them last race
Yeah tru
He needs either someone to divert him or Oscar to not do well for ferrari to get points over mclaren
And I don't like that second option too much lool
If I was told that the fight would come down to McLaren vs Ferrari in December 2023 with redbull 3rd place, I wouldn’t have believed it
ok ferrari bois our delulu of constructor is gone
well we wouldn't belive like apirl 2024
Def 😭
Mclaren look good this weekend
lol yeah
damn mclaren is rocketship again
only hope is mclaren somehow fuck up strategy again
I want Oscar to win more tbh
Now that is more realistic
they are in 2022 ferrari arc
It’s obviously a car 😒
Dunno why you think it’s a rocket ship mate
F1 space edition
Oscar said he will give up his position to Lando
):
I hope the positions are Oscar Charles Lando
So he can't
Yes this would be perfect
Okay this is weird, i got a 7d mute when i tried to @ everyone cuz I thought no one could but apparently it just gives you that mute, but now i can talk again???
unless a mod personally took care of me, thanks for that
your free lol
Yeah that jail was like jail in monopoly
@primal cobalt who is anj
sorry bro just a accident
Aight so this is my top 3 for the sprint
- Leclerc
- Piastri
- Norris
Will Max still win the WDC?
Max might be in the top 3
Max will need to be in the top 3 given he has the 5 place grid penalty for the main race
Odds are in his favor
Honestly that's the right thing to do at this stage
you got untimed out like less than 20 minutes after it happened

Bot's math is not mathing
wait yeah wtf
Zhou finishing more than one second behind Stroll
Average Zhou
2.5 seconds behind his teammate
Fucking tragic
How is he in F1 respectfully
I mean 2022 wasn’t bad but the car wasn’t tragic
- Albon
- Lawson
- Norris
my delusion saying yes
apparently hes a paydriver
it's probably half his fault this time
they only sent him out on one run instead of two (I imagine to have an extra set for SQ3) but it just didn't work out
hes a tragic driver in a tragic car
he fell off a literal cliff mid season he was outperforming bottas
only sq3 is run on softs iirc
Yes
Red Bull sent Checo out too late for the 2nd run.
So for once it's Red Bulls fault and not Checos.
Nah, he should have set a decent time in his first try itself. Its his fault aswell
why does colapinto have to be so marketable... poor lawson
this is all the americans fault
Lol, but what's the link between Americans and Lawson and franco ?
sargeant being garbage led to colapinto
Ahh that way. Lol 😆
And as Franco is from Argentina which is in South America and South America literally includes America, Franco technically is from America.
ok thats obviously not what i meant and i think you know that
his personality and being the first argentinian driver in what.. ¿20 years? Here the second biggest sport after football is motorsports so.. you can expect the type of hype hes getting from here and support
And the things gonna explode even more when messi sponsors him
Mines 1. Norris 2. Leclerc 3. Russell
Bottas
Perez
Stroll
I just wish that Bottas gets more respect...yeahyeah hes not a fastest guy but very reliable and good co-driver
masi+
soon we gonna have cola+
We're gonna see Lewis driving for Ayrton Senna https://x.com/F1/status/1852667721906786750?t=1GWfWJP0fFPJ0e8-JbzW0g&s=19
We are in the middle of a sprint race weekend. What you guys think about this duscussion on Reddit about the spint races?
https://www.reddit.com/r/GrandPrixRacing/comments/1gfovun/there_have_been_mixed_reviews_about_the_sprint/
if it happens i think it would be with the messi trademark not with those energy drinks thing tbf
When is sprint starting?
in 2.5 hours
Finally an f1 event thats in a good time in my time zone🙏
how do i pronounce sennas first name
fr?
'max verstappen'
im being fr cus idk how to pronounce it lol
i would in early december
I saw a Christmas ad from sainsbury on tiktok like two minutes into the 1st of November
by twenty seconds
airton
but the O is more like an i sound
Norris to win sprint. Piastri to defend like crazy and collide with Max? (Not hoping for it but one scenario)

let lando win while holding up max and bunching up the rest of the pack so they overtake mac
max
yh nah im dreaming
this will not happen
but i kinda hope
real. lando will bottle the start piastri will dominate
max will be max
leclerc
will mama mia
yea but mclaren will do team orders
they need to
Sao Paulo
F1: Sprint (Brazilian Grand Prix)
<t:1730556000:R>
papaya rule
screw that
dumbest thing ever
It got scrapped long back
REAL
oh?
Yea after monza
well mclaren looks pretty strong
will buxton raging prob got them thinking
stronger than they did in cota at least
norris could have 10 points more.
first 7 in hungary where they stole him the win.
and second in monza when they let piastri drive in front in p2 while norris was p3
i love and hate mclaren at the same time
The lead could have been of only 30 pts if max and lando had not crashed in Austria 🤯
ferrari deserves the w
yea. but that was the fault from both of them. max moving under braking and lando divebombing every lap thinking he is ricciardo
tysm
i missed my alarm am I late for the sprint?
No, still an hour and 15 till
not much to be lost. use it a practice or smthn idk
Sao Paulo
F1: Sprint (Brazilian Grand Prix)
<t:1730556000:R>
what happened to AM
suspension setup change
sprint is a free practice session for aston martin
chances of points are as low as always
gathering all the data to finish p13 in the main race 🔥
exactly
CHAT HAMILTON GONNA DRIVE SENNA'S CAR
Aston is Even worse than sauber pefromance wise rn
After all the sessions right?
Sprint when
Straight
52 minutes
Sao Paulo
F1: Sprint (Brazilian Grand Prix)
<t:1730556000:R>
Sadly yeah
I hope newey can turn aston around
Maybe he will help build a new Lance Stroll 
I would like to see Alonso on the podium more though
maybe even win a race
What time is qauli
yeah its been too long
when even was his last win 😭
how is the weather?
dry right now
Looks like rain could start in an hour+ or so
thats like the end of the sprint
but i think quali will be wet
rain mid sprint 👀
That cell to the NW is moving SE rn
that’d be insane
ferrari is already warming their hard tyres for the rain
the end of the sprint could be interesting
😭😭😭
would it be heavy rain?
this is not canada
Yeah it could breakup
then it might be like sochi conditions at the end
But could also strengthen cause whatever their weather is is wild
but at the start of the end
last year the rain came out of nowhere
not the end of the end
will make for some interesting strategy
wonder if it’ll be worth boxing
AYEE
beautiful
Now I just have to pray
Rain is predicted for tomorrow.
i think it’ll be more up to if the cars work i feel like they’re all good in the rain
I am more worried about their strategies 😦
and today
isn’t it
tomorrow rain will be so good though
on a resurfaced track a long wet race 🤤
My cheeks about to be wet with tears that's for sure
😂
Absolute classic incoming chat
Track is a bit sunny atm
can change in minutes
rain is forecasted near the end of the sprint
the devil
I hope it'll be rained tomorrow 😁
