Monza Tifosi when pelley is a ferrari driver: track is filled to sector 2
Monza Tifosi when pelley is a haas driver: theres like 2 people out there
fr
Ferrari got scammed btw
Romeo payed Ferrari his salary to break his contract (and the F100 isn’t his anymore), but that means he was a FA and HAAS didn’t have to pay 1.2b for him
Montreal moment😭🙏
Exactly!
Nashville’s storyline gonna be crazy
Aston Martin are down to P3 in R&D.
oh no!
McLaren now top from Red Bull
how did aston fall off
no clue
Well, it's Aston.
Just realised, K-Mag is like 38 now
Who will win in Baku?

Lap 1, DP crashes with Gasly and Leclerc, then clobbers his own front left tyre at the castle section and retires
new affiliates for 2025
Tsunoda wins, Norris and Piastri on the podium. Albon, Verstappen, Stroll, Russell, Perez, Hamilton and Leclerc.
Speedrun a few.
Singapore Quals
Aston Martin front row, Norris P3, Albon P4
new affiliate
Massive shocks in the grand prix:
Piastri wins, Russell P2, Sainz P3, Sargeant P4, then Gasly, Ocon, Pourchaire, Norris, Nissany and Magnussen.
Hamilton P11, Albon P12, Tsunoda P13, Verstappen P14, Perez P15, Stroll P16, Zhou P17, Boschung P18, Hulkenberg P19, Leclerc DNF
Nissany points?
Piastri's win means McLaren have taken the lead in the constructors
That's crazy.
And Ferrari now have two podiums
sixty two whole points
where did that come from
Only 2, but points is points, as Ferrari know 
this guy is in f3 in my save
and is the only trident driver not under my junior team
My dumbass brain thought it was Grayson Waller for a sec
Heading into COTA, Red Bull are now fastest from McLaren and Aston. Williams have got back by Haas, Ferrari are up to 6th, Merc still 7th, Alpine are down to 8th, then VCARB, Sauber and DPM.
where did red bull come from
Romeo’s story is nearly over…. Damn
theyve been there
Nashville’s story is gonna cook
this phase of the story is "from one pellegrini to another"
they were right with the front when williams were p3 earlier in the season
True also Nashville has some INSANE lore from when he turns 16 onwards
pre-F1: "Early Days", "The Twingo", "Falling Into A Ditch"
Haas: "The Debut"
Mercedes: "First Title and Controversy"
Red Bull: "Start of a Dominance"
Ferrari: "Unexpected Start and End"
Haas 2.0: "Back To The Beginnings"
Post-F1: "End of an Era"
Transition phase: "From One Pellegrini to Another"
Actually i’m gonna drop some lore
On paper Red Bull are top, but on track its still McLaren, this time Lando.
Ferrari ‘hijacked’ Romeo’s return to HAAS in 2030
Ferrari allegedly hijacked the homecoming of Romeo a year ago, Romeo and HAAS where nearly finishing the deal when Ferrari made a “too good to seem true” offer. How could’ve the 2030 season looked if Romeo did have an early homecoming?
but 1 thing never changed: the Twingo
these could be chapter names for the pelley book
Yeah you cooked
i forgot to make a ditch reference so i added one
Yes, I wanted to join HAAS in 2030. So I just cooked lore
my wallpaper is technically 6 years old by now
I just realized something
The Vips-Pellegrini friendship could’ve been a BIG indicator Romeo was interested in moving back to the team that gave him his do or die chance
and then he comes in and straight up replaces his best friend 
but i dont think theres any hard feelings over there
they couldve planned it from the start idk
Norris, Tsunoda, Piastri, Verstappen, Stroll, Albon, Sainz, Leclerc, Perez and Russell top 10 for sprint
Maybe who knows, they’re still best buddies (Vips is defending Romeo’s actions in Monaco)
vips x pellegrini
Might be cooking something with that👀
i wouldnt be surprised if a pellegrini ended up marrying a vips 

Sprint scorers in COTA:
Tsunoda, Norris, Piastri, Verstappen, Albon, Perez, Sainz, Hamilton
charlotte pellegrini x andrei vips storyline?!?!?!?
Hmmmm
GP quali:
Tsunoda back in front, on pole. Piastri P2, Norris P3. Then Russell, Verstappen, Stroll, Hamilton, Albon, Sainz and Gasly.
WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL??
KEVIN MAGNUSSEN WINS THE US GRAND PRIX. WHAT?
HUH
Ocon P2, Sainz gets ANOTHER PODIUM
but surprisingly thats where the drunkenness stops
sorta
Piastri P4, Norris P5, Albon P6, Hamilton P7, Verstappen P8, Russell P9, Gasly P10
i had to search up estonian names for that lmao
Tsunoda P11.
Lol, I might honestly do it
except for idfk the whole podium
magnussen winning, ocon p2 and sainz p3
nah thats totally normal
i thought nissany getting points in Singapore was odd but damn
one odd race to another
i think it was singapore anyway
i was originally planning to stop for the night after cota but damn i kinda wanna see what mexico has to offer
That podium had drivers in the 9th, 8th and 6th fastest cars respectively
No change in R&D going to Mexico
should i do full quali see who gets eliminated in q1/2?
indeed
i didnt
short quali for mexico
Norris P1, Piastri P2
Verstappen, Tsunoda, Perez, Albon, Russell, Stroll, Ocon and Sainz.
will there be chaos
dp is certainly gonna try to stir some 💀
whats his excuse gonna be for crashing like its a hobby
Okay I just cooked something crazy
Btw Lefevre drives with the number 5, Hauger with the number 94.
Drugovich calls Pellegrini ‘unrespectful brat’ after Monaco GP
Drugovich called 7 time champion Pellegrini a unrespectful brat after his celebrations after the Monaco GP, Pellegrini bit back by saying: “You have a lot of talk for someone with 1 career podium and who hasn’t scored a point in 2 years.”
chaos goes brrrr
damnnn
Tbh Drugo is a Brazilian, so this was the perfect time to start a random ass beef
speaking of chaos, dp crashed sargeant out and caused stroll to have to pit under safety car
dam
Tbh Drugo is probably getting cooked online
by an angry mob of slovakians
Poor Drugo is going after a 7 time champion and a people’s champ while he hasn’t been in the top 10 for 2 years 😭😭🙏
The Slovakians probably make jokes about that
Is this successful chaos?
List of DNFs:
Piastri, Hamilton, Norris, DP, Zhou, Sargeant
this race could end up voided bc i forgot to press continue before turning off my ps4 😭
ngl that seems pretty standard
except for nissany p10
Yuki wins whilst Stroll is 11th.
thats just stroll 
fair enough
nissany p10 and stroll being stroll
tbh i just installed that deluxe liveries mod just to have options going into the future
Cuz im running out of unique livery templates
points in japan
points in the chinese sprint (no points in race)
points in miami ‼️
no points in the race
i mean sprint
no points in the sprint
Hondoints?!?!?
we're actually cooking
i love road to glory
i really like this livery despite how mediocre it may seem to others
oop i think the livery mod replaced the livery im using right now
ima complete FP2 and then temporarily remove that mod until the end of the season
why is the game letting me set 78.8 laps even tho the mediums can only handle 59
woah ive never seen this before
"screw the fia" ahh vote
It never limits you at the start of the session.
Which is stupid but well, that's how it is.
ok i just quickly uninstalled my new livery template mods cuz one of them overrid my current livery funnily enough
time to finish the austria gp weekend
thats better
VCARB sandwich
It's actually annoying that it doesn't say at the start of the session that the tires don't last that long because I always have to manually check that.
most random battle to ever exist
Like I do the Maths how much laps, based of the fastest time in the previous practice session, can be done in 60 minutes just to then see, well, the effort was for nothing because the tires can't go that long.
Well, I round the times up to 1:x0 or 1:x5.
To make it simpler.
lol what i just do is the default 15 laps before i get an ideal setup
and then bump it up to either 30 or 40 once i get the setup good
That's what I do until the setup is done with the 15 laps.
Then I calculate the minimum amount of fuel to get until the end of the session.
- 1 lap buffer
Somehow once that still ended in running out of fuel.
Like I even add 1 extra lap, how is that still not enough fuel?
But it was really just once that it happened.
i do full conserve anyway which does help
still weird though
except for occasionally when i do a random quali lap sim
the haas does look similar to us doesnt it
I do that to still have as best lap times as possible without interrupting the run because the acclimatization goes up faster if they drive more laps in 1 piece.
yeah i figured that out
thats why i double the stint length once i get the setup done
the cool part about rain in practice is if its in the middle of the session you can still keep your drivers out on slicks
Well, maybe I shouldn't always pit to be on the right tires for the conditions but it only feels right to do that.
I like rain that goes up to less than 1mm and then ends already.
i think i once got rain that went to like 0.12 and then ended
I don't remember what the least was I had but it was more than that.
0.25 or something like that
Maybe it even was once under 0.2.
the only reason i dislike mclaren's current number style is its difficult to make other numbers out of it
Yeah, I don't really like it, it's a bit weird.
like tell me this says 38
That's 3E.
i preferred their 2023 number style
wait
It that how the 8 in Oscar's 81 looks like?
Or looks the 8 as 2nd digit different than as 1st digit?
i mean yeah but his 8 actually looks like an 8 and not an E
i think F1M's scaling messed up on the second digit
Yeah, it's closed and not open at the right.
Well, hopefully I'll never have Ollie driving for McLaren to see that.
this 55 is just completely unintelligible
That's 9E.
it is possible the mod the numbers, i wonder why nobody has done one for McLaren
Yeah, the McLaren number font seems to be messed up.
i wonder if this is a base game Merc number style or a part of the livery mod
Alpine
I think the base game even stays with blue and yellow.
for car 1 and 2
I remember Lando having a yellow 4.
and Max a blue 1/33
1 in 2025 and 33 in 2026
Williams is also fairly normal
It's white.
but a lot bigger
The number on the front wing goes over the whole width.
i think Audi's is just Sauber's in white
Red Bull's is also pretty standard
hmmm have we gone over every team
all but ferrari but neither of their drivers are out
German Ferrari is also fairly standard
That's literally the default Ferrari number with the yellow line around.
and in white
I know it's not black because only in Monza it was with the carbon fiber optic.
all of the other numbers are nice
except whatever mclaren is going for
i feel like f1 manager has some weird cropping on there that cuts off the 2nd digit
yeah
even this other mclaren livery mod still uses the regular mclaren number
I think it's just oversized and goes over the area that's supposed to be for the number.
I couldn't find the word for that.
oh i found one that actually uses a different number font for mclaren
I guess white mclaren will make a comeback for 2031!
ONE MINUTE
Thats how good the cars are now in my save
It's close to sub 1 minute.
i’m so glad i picked sponsor activities as the majority payout
try noy to go even further into debt
we did it
P6
by a point
ho lee sheet
well charles won the drivers championship
aboslute shock
okay class of 2025
Ferrari: Lewis and Charles
Redbull: Max and Fernando
Mclaren: Oscar and Lando
Mercedes: George and Theo
Aston Martin: Valtteri and Yuki
Nissan Honda: Ayumu and Ryō
VCARB: Pierre and Checo
Alpine: Vandoorne and Carlos
Williams: Alex and Esteban
Haas: Zhou and Daniel
Pierre back in vcarb is kinda cruel 😭
all that debt paid off man
we have a very dominant car, i hope my drivers can use it to the fullest
the track isnt drying quickly lol
i like how theres no rain but DRS is still disabled cuz the track water is above 1mm
AND AGAIN
Piastri wins the Austrian GP!
F2 update
our first 1-2 finally! and of course it had to be Japan as well
F3 update
F1 WDC Update
Leclerc is 21st with 3 points, Lawson is 22nd with 0
F1 WCC Update
Alpine is 11th with 3 points
The 2030 season is suddenly exciting
We lost Italy to Russell and Austria is lost to Piastri
fking nissan honda gets a 1-2 meanwhile the most dominant team im the channel goes 2-3
yeah
i am back
and i somehow got both drivers into sq2
i forgot to send them out dang it
out in sq2
haas p3
hulkenberg is finally back on form on my team
what a turnaround
never mind hes back to being behind
of course stroll caused a red flag
he sent it off of 10 at austria in q2
no way he did it AGAIN in the grand prix this time
damn it it didnt pit hulkenberg on the safety car
i told it to
oh well
finally we got points
i forgot about hulkenberg and gave bro a puncture
piastri got p9 though
i just love to see this
Sunwest doing a Red Bull 2024?
just without Checo
There was an issue with fitting on the rear left tire at Pérez's pit stop.
And then there was an issue with fitting on the rear left tire at Lefevre's pit stop.
penalty points after the 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix:
Lefevre 1 (+1)
championship fight after the 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix
we lead every lap and then some sneaky red bull comes in and pips us to the race win at the end 
imagine being the unlucky guy who gets put first on the penalty points list
Multiple Sunwest losses??
yep
that is honestly insane
i might do another career save when i finish the current DPMU, as DPM but this time making them a championship contender team from the outset
DPM but its not a sim save basically 
could still be a sim save except theyre set up as champ contenders in the create a team process
The original Mexico timeline i did last night is unsaved and therefore i have to redo the race
all of the FP1 drivers my save has seen
new mexico gp: Tsunoda won from Norris, Piastri, Verstappen, Stroll, Albon, Perez, Russell, Sainz and Leclerc. Normal race, minus double points for Ferrari.
That's Tsunoda's 12th win out of 19. What started out as the perfect season is slowly unravelling as Piastri is starting to catch.
Championship top 10:
Tsunoda 377
Piastri 320
Norris 283
Stroll 193
Verstappen 185
Albon 133
Russell 118
Perez 117
Gasly 87
Hamilton 62
Full Constructors Standings:
603
570
302
180
163
132
82
28
16
6
DPM 0
the last one was expected lol
fr
i have another save where i started as spec 0, my driver won 2 championships, i left the team spec 0 until like s6 or s7, theyre like mid table now in s7
R&D Rundown into Sao Paulo:
Red Bull, McLaren and Aston still top 3. Williams 4th, Haas 5th, then Ferrari, Merc, and Alpine who are absolutely miles ahead of VCARB, and themselves are far ahead of sauber who have probably over double the performance of dpm
As we head to Sao Paulo, the first of many questions is who is going to be on sprint pole?
i think i'm cooking up a little lore relating to the calendar 👀
Anyway 2027 Sao Paulo GP, the sprint.
Pole goes to Norris, Piastri rounds out the front row. P3 is Tsunoda, then Verstappen, Albon, Perez, Stroll, Russell, Sainz and Leclerc round out the top 10.
Lando Norris triumphs in the sprint in Sao Paulo. Piastri P2, Verstappen P3, Tsunoda P4, Stroll P5, Albon P6, Russell P7 and Perez P8.
Dry GP qualifying, wet race.
1 lap on the board for everyone and it's Lando in provisional pole from Verstappen, then Piastri, then the two Astons, Stroll ahead of Yuki.
Verstappen sets a second lap, 6 minutes to go Max is P1.
CARLOS SAINZ GOES P4 AHEAD OF THE ASTON MARTINS!
ALBON TO PROVISIONAL POLE - 5 MINUTES TO GO
The drivers are now on what is for most lap 2.
25 seconds to go
Piastri and Tsunoda beat Max but not Alex!
A couple of last second changes.
Final grid order:
Alex Albon on pole, Verstappen front row. Piastri P3, Tsunoda P4, Stroll P5, Norris P6, then Leclerc, Sainz, Gasly and Hamilton.

But Verstappen already has a prime position, one of the better wet weather drivers on the 2027 grid (front row, p2)
71 laps
that's.. clearly impossible to do
and 100 times fuel lol
no one would have tyres
then everyone puts on old tyres and drives with a puncture
was there an aborted start?
f1 manager can't handle more than 100 laps anyway
i'd like to extend it
(because i can)
i'll just set it to 96
let's see how long will the ai take
96 laps of canada 
the gp sees a lot of chaos
Pierre Gasly wins for Alpine from Leclerc and Sargeant.
you can edit sprint laps too
Pourchaire P4, then US GP winner Magnussen, then Nissany, Sainz, Zhou, Russell and Boschung.
so we could do 2 grand prix in a weekend
Outside the points we have Ocon, Hulkenberg, Verstappen, Albon, Hamilton, Tsunoda, Norris, Stroll and Cordeel. Perez, Piastri and obviously DP retired from the race.
from front row to p13 and 14 💀
alpine win hUh
haas 4-6 💀💀
nissany p6 and boschung p10 what
meanwhile of course cordeel finishes p19
Next up, the first time in six years the F1 calendar visits Portimão.
the barkmarkers more separated than ever
fr 
Any Canada predictions?
peep the astons being 16-18 and mclarens 17 and dnf
(The race will be in like 3 hours)
418 kilometers
oh surprising transfer
if i set spa at this lap count it would probably be way bigger than that
after 1 seasons
Fournier is a 78-rated Ferrari affiliate
Lemme rephrase: any top 3 predictions?
pelley smashes the field

she's already F2 champion 
Probably true bc Canada is RP’s 2nd fav track
Portimao could be an interesting GP. not inherently chaotic, but wet quali and race should create an interesting dynamic. Any predictions?
ooh the team suitability thing is actually filled in now
Pelley going to racing bulls for 2031
theres some pretty insane buyout fees out there
Sasaki has a 113 million buyout
Bearman's on 60 million
Stroll's on 45 million
and of course Max is on that 700 million buyout
the race just started russell
lol
?
ill wait until abu dhabi before making my decision on antonelli and pulling
6 more races to go
10 to the end of the season
i found out that multiple cars collided with minor damage
one of the incidents was max and russell
that's why russell crashed
Here we go then, result to qualifying for the Portuguese Grand Prix: Norris gets pole position, Tsunoda on the front row. Oscar Piastri P3, Russell 4th, Perez 5th, Ocon P6, then Sainz, Stroll, and Hamilton in P9
i decided to do a lap now and see where it puts me
For the first time in F1 (DPMU), DPM have a driver in the top 10, as DP will start the Grand Prix in P10.
She so dreamy
Albon is P11, Leclerc P12, Verstappen P13, Magnussen P14, Pourchaire P15, Nissany P16, Boschung P17, Gasly P18, Zhou P19, Hulkenberg P20, Sargeant P21 and Cordeel P22.
yep. DP outqualified Verstappen.
imagine seeing that lol
some guy who never entered a quali session goes out in quali and goes P10
nah bros gonna win 
see where he ends up actually from a half decent position
5 seconds
i wouldn't mind letting DPM win a race tbh 💀
wow a dry race
should I sim? or should i just retire
typical DP though, he got a good time on full wets, but then when almost everyone else went back out on inters at the end, he didnt
albon and charles didnt either
but everyone else did
feels like mclaren at a japan gp i did once
i was first to switch to inters
and then everyone else did
except both mclarens
i just bet dp was swearing at the team in post session seeing pole absolutely fall away
the top 3... wow
huh
sim and run the chance of winning/scoring in a DPM? or just do the typical thing and retire?
oh pelley is back
verstappen has damage..
of course
Guys
that's why he can't catch up
What's dpm
Ye but what's it stand for
and would you look at that
there is no long form
the team and its owner have a mysterious aura
A
oh bruh i forgot to preset my setup
just saw a car spinning off
the only thing known about the owner is his initials are DP
Daniel Picciardo
safety car again
Logan?
colapinto and ricciardo
Ah
for context: the reason this is so outlandish of a scenario is because Portugal 2027 is the first ever time DP has run a qualifying session. He goes P10, could have been P1 if he went back out on inters. DPM have never developed. ever.
pelley
for the sake of the possibility of chaos im thinking i should sim the race
Spicy
this will either be one of the most chaotic races or one of the most boring
regardless whatever the standings will be will be
why does it look like it was on purpose
Max, Yuki and Maloney
And i can confirm that for DP, nothing comes of this opportunity. Yuki Tsunoda wins the Portuguese Grand Prix, from Piastri and Verstappen, who came from P12 to the podium. Norris P4, Stroll P5, Perez P6, Albon P7, Sainz P8, Russell P9 and Hamilton P10.
DP is last on the road and Cordeel retired along with Gasly 💀
role reversal 
lol
funny enough, the three who we've dubbed the barkmarker trio (Boschung, Nissany, Cordeel) have all been DPM drivers 

lando also doesn't pit
Next up, Vegas. Ferrari and Mercedes have taken strides and are now 4th and 5th in R&D.
Yuki Tsunoda has pole position for the Las Vegas Grand Prix in 2027, with Lando Norris alongside.
Esteban Ocon brings his Alpine up into third place.
Albon is then 4th, from Sainz, Piastri, Russell, Stroll, Leclerc and Gasly.
Perez outqualifies Max for 11th vs 12th.
all of this was caused by tsunoda
meanwhile dp is back to his ways of only showing up on sunday
or technically Saturday here?
almost half the grid got wiped
dont block the pit lane challenge failed
damn
race resumes with 81 laps to go
f1 but its wec
the cars are actually crashing more than i expected
Tsunoda and Piastri take a penalty, Norris inherits pole, then Ocon on the front row. Tsunoda's penalty puts him P10 on the grid, and Piastri's puts him P16.
idea: spa but its 60+ laps
the crash aided max a lot
Who will win under the lights in Vegas in the DPMU?
that is some insane domination
Chaos in Vegas already, as DP took STRIDES into P9, only to lose it all into the wall. VSC comes out, but DP overtakes under yellows getting a drive through penalty. Later that lap he crashed Pourchaire out into retirement, bringing the full safety car out. Into the restart, Ocon leads from Norris.
bro is a menace
and also deosnt know how to drive
that's how all rear enders look in this game
fair
lap 21:
perez and piastri collide
both got minor damage
zhodium
backmarker teams are now in midfield
Lando Norris wins the Las Vegas Grand Prix, as Ocon's lead was short lived. But behind him, Yuki Tsunoda comes from P10 to finish P2 with fastest lap and crown himself the champion of the world in 2027!
maybe I create a team of staff/drivers from the top 3 teams
His gap to Piastri is 66 which is unassailable.
Meanwhile, Verstappen now has P4 in the drivers championship over Stroll by 1 point, 210 to 209.
ferrari in 7th in the constructors have a constructors point total equivalent to about 13 sauber teams 💀
Sauber have 10, Ferrari have 129
Constructors championship 2027 after Vegas in DPMU:
689
635
336
197
196
157
129
39
36
10
DPM 0
interesting dpmu lore drop could be approaching
not necessarily around any drivers in particular
screw it lets lore drop now
F1 to not race in the Middle East or United States in 2028; Dutch GP to return in 2028 only
This decision was taken in the wake of disastrous economic crashes that took place in these regions in mid-2027. The Grand Prix venues could be sustained for 2027, however not for 2028 due to running costs being high and no monetary reserves. It is projected this change to the calendar will only be effective for 2028, and potentially 2029 depending on the state of the economies of the affected countries by the end of 2028.
Wall Street was not affected by the States' crash, and the Middle Eastern incidents were separate from the US.
theres no way we're losing this win now!
watch them crash each other out
time to cook
this feels kinda like 1957 when the suez crisis cancelled the belgian, dutch and spanish gps
oh.
at the moment.. things seem fine
netherlands only returns to make up 16 races on the '28 calendar
the car looks so good
for 5 seconds*
Qatar Grand Prix Sprint Qualifying. McLaren lock out the front row, then Yuki and Max, Sainz and Stroll, Albon and Leclerc, and Perez and Hamilton.
sainz leads
actually I got Balbo instead of Prodromou
Aron recieves the penalty for the crash
Red Bull's... replacements
Perez is gonna break his back carrying this lot 😭
first time perez ever has to carry something
what about the embarrassment of being thrashed by max
oh guess what lawson got lapped
verstappen locked up!
lmao the points scorers were almost perfectly in WDC order
absolute send down the inside
this is how ineffective some of my upgrades are at this point lol
100% engine cooling 
is it trying to improve backwards?
anyways, piastri crashes
vsc gets deployed
and.. verstappen retires??
now it's just a 10 car race
DP: "i can't ××××××× drive this. Too ××××××× wide at every single corner, i'm ××××××× bouncing like i'm on a ××××××× trampoline, i've lost my ××××××× wing, i can't do ×××× to stop Amaury!"
T: "Copy. So, box to retire, box to retire."
Piastri and Norris take a 1-2 in Qatar, the champion Tsunoda is P3 from Verstappen, Albon, Stroll, Sainz and Perez.
uh yeah, thats what happens when you do no practice, only compete in 1 qualifying ever and still be last on the road in the gp after qualifying p10
this is literally an endurance race
zhou is leading with similar tyres to sainz
It will be Norris on pole for the Qatar GP, from Piastri and Albon. Tsunoda and Stroll 4-5, Verstappen and Perez 6-7, Russell P8, Sainz and Leclerc 9-10, and Hamilton P11. Sargeant is P12 ahead of Ocon and Gasly, then Pourchaire, Boschung, and their respective teammates, then the Saubers 19-20 and DPM 21-22 (no shock there)
zhou got overtaken quickly
this is what the top 5 looks like
OOH MY
that's perez in the wall
SC deployed
Who can perform under the lights in Qatar?
not dp thats for sure
8 cars
33 laps to go
that's still a long distance
OOOOOOH NO
k-mag's out
red flag
this is a literal endurance race
there could yet be a twist in the 2028 calendar's tale
i like how its all been these small single car crashes
and then the one 10 car crash
uh huh, dp retires
US 2005 all over again
in other news, grass found in field
at least the cars crashed out rather than backing out of the race at the formatiom lap
last man standing f1 edition fr
and then someone just kept dnf'ing every few laps
it's probably going to happen again
another crash..
albon and sargeant retire
5 cars remain
albon gets a 5 second time penalty
i wonder what would happen if theres only one car left
bottas pits for more softs
do a schumacher and box at the end of the final lap to cross the finish line in the pits
bottas chose a 6 stopper
lap 71/96
sc is coming in
sauber's the only team to not have a dnf in this race
this episode on sentences you would only hear in a fever dream
imagine if the top 4 all crash into each other and bottas wins
even when 77% of the grid retires sauber will still finish last
everyone's spread out now
lap 80/96
norris enters DRS range 4 laps later
he's trying again
norris is leading now
but sainz is still in DRS range
lap 91:
norris is pulling away
lando wins from p19 on the grid!
17 cars retired
that's a lot
..too much
In DPMU, Tsunoda wins in Qatar from the 2 McLarens, Norris ahead of Piastri. Stroll, Russell, Albon, Sainz, Hamilton, Perez and Leclerc round out the points.
Full qualifying for the Abu Dhabi GP as a one-off thing!
🔥🔥
i've essentially simmed all of all 4 of my seasons
the typical DP protocol is start the race, cause chaos, retire, repeat
Most of the chaos doesnt stick in results but sometimes, Canada will know, the game gets a little drunk with result generation
Out in Q1: Nissany, Boschung, Hulkenberg, Zhou, Cordeel, DP
because i got knocked out i can't witness what happens in q2 with the rest, so therefore i'll skip to the grid
this is why i prefer short quali
i can see whats happening with the rest
Pole is Piastri, Yuki P2. Norris P3, Leclerc P4, Albon, Sainz, Verstappen, Russell, Stroll, Perez top 10
So uhm, not sure if I can get the race out today
The final win of 2027 goes to Norris! Piastri and Russell round out the podium, with Albon, Tsunoda, Stroll, Leclerc, Sainz, Verstappen and Gasly filling the top 10.
it's so close to full happiness
the damages are heavy
to car 1
magnussen broke the ERS again
so.. 10 place grid penalty
there will be another development in the dpmu 2028 calendar
but first, contracts.
Should i retain Cordeel, or seek someone else?
is there anyone else available
I can't pull any top drivers bc my facilities are as good as a literal shed
probably worse than a shed 
i mean who could you sign lmao
who
bc that backmarker trio are the lowest rated 3 in my save, then clément has the 4th lowest rating
some french guy
...good description
time to bulk order more parts
I 1st read Interpol.
ah yes 24 hours of le mans with the Interpol Racing Team 
bro races with cops 
i've just been going down the market trying to negotiate and ayrton senna accepted my approach
should i sign him?
ayrton senna tf 
24h of Le Mans NFS style
i wonder what would happen 
imagine if he just goes in and wins races
ayrton senna wdc with npm racing
i cant tell which is funnier
which one would be the most meme to sign
pastor's declined
Maldonado could challenge in the amount of DNFs.
moving through the market, only 2 have accepted my approach, i'm leaving cordeel for last
senna, and jamie chadwick
the two most random drivers ever
bearman accepts
we have a problem
are there high risk parts
it's telling me to remove parts that can still race
"only two have accepted my approach"
"actually we got bearman"
vesti
just replace the high risk parts
sometimes that causes issues
yes
so who is it?!?!?
im just going through seeing everyone who accepts at the moment
doohan and fittipaldi join that list
bro why do people want to join the dogcrap dpm team 
dpm: has a reputation for being shit
senna: screw it we'll try
Senna be like: I can win in every car.
one of the legends drivers that are signable
yeah ik why hes signable
Well, both were.
i like how michael schumacher is like "hmmm no"
and then ayrton senna is like "screw it we ball" (or however the phrase goes)
two leclercs on the grid
AND HE DOES?
It's not Charles, but at least it's Leclerc.
"Leclerc in P21 - that's Arthur, not Charles, for any confused or worried Ferrari fans out there"
well, that didn't work
oh damn
what now
do the full race again
should i restart the whole race?
I think you went into the save braking bug.
ok.
the save did indeed brake... into a wall
remember 2028 is also a 'no middle east, no usa races' season
The only solution is to try older save points until it doesn't happen again.
so basically pre-2000 seasons all over again
i'll have to remove one more race from the grid to drop to 16 on the calendar
but rn in still thinking 'do i sign arthur'
the question is would cordeel stay on the grid
Go with Arthur.
i haven't even seen if cordeel accepts my offers yet 😭
arthur leclerc is a good option yeh
the others deserve a better seat
and ayrton senna is just... ayrton senna
chadwick would result in the first female driver on the grid since whenever the last one was
deel or no deel
Cor deel
f1 game show: (cor)deel or no (cor)deel
deel cor no deel
idk tbh
who do i sign tho actually
Now add the c in front of or.
amazing photoshop job from my end 
dpm at the end of 2027:
i want a final answer tho who should i sign
arthur leclerc would go so hard
it would be interesting to see if he can go faster than cordeal
re sign with cordeel, or go to someone else, and if the latter then who
I would say no deel to Cordeel and deel to Arthur.
yes
Striking up a deel
cordeel becoming a new inside meme
for real
Arthur has of course accepted
*cor deel 
and the deel is done
ok, 96 laps of canada (for real this time)
cordeel out, leclerc (arthur) in
BOSCOR ARE TEAMMATES BC KMAG RETIRED OMG
"Leclerc signs with DPM"
Ferrari fans: NOOO NOT CHARLES
"Whoops we meant Arthur"
Ferrari fans: ahhh
leclerc was the best option 
cordeel saw the opening at vcarb, saw his best friend and was like "well if dpm won't take me might as well go to vcarb"
you picked the best deel
idk how vcarb decided they want cordeel
but saying that idk how they picked boschung yet hes in
vcarb is made up of former dpm backmarkers
the other one is at haas, and i wonder if leclerc (arthur) becomes a backmarker
safety car ends on lap 5
i wonder what arthur leclerc's 3 letters are
ALE or LEL
which other track should i remove to take it to 16?
i've dropped bahrain, saudi, miami, zandvoort, cota, vegas, qatar and abu dhabi
what happened here..
Le Clerc
?
china maybe?
a political reasoning would be made there
chinese government made remarks bragging about the us tracks being removed and got removed too as a result
thats actually kinda good ngl
"karma"
So then, the calendar is:
Australia, Japan, Imola, Monaco, Canada, Spain, Austria, Britain, Hungary, Belgium, Monza, Azerbaijan, Singapore, Mexico, Brazil, and finale in Portugal
feels like pre-2000s calendars tbh
stroll's in the barriers
should DP have a new number for 2028
looks like lando got jumpscared in the process
or is 73 still the opt
yep 73 will be
another crash at the final chicane
there is absolutely ages until the 2028 opener 💀
aston screwed up huge
not even a reg change tho 💀
i like how it now looks like a typical 2024 performance chart
sauber are so far behind lmao
so realistic
I was only able to do one practice session yesterday.
However, the 2028 Australian GP qualifying looks like this:
Norris on pole, Piastri P2, Tsunoda, Stroll, Perez, Hamilton, Verstappen, Russell, Albon, Charles Leclerc, Sargeant, Ocon, Gasly, Pourchaire, Cordeel, Boschung, Nissany, Zhou, Sainz, Hulkenberg, Arthur Leclerc and DP.
the astons dont actually look 5th placed car slow
i might have crashed verstappen out
bruh
wow what
under sc so i can take time to see the order
imagine if he scores points
On the restart Yuki leads from Checo, Piastri, Norris, Stroll and Albon, then Charles, then Ocon, Hamilton, Sainz, Gasly, Pourchaire then Arthur, then Russell, Zhou, Cordeel, Nissany, Sargeant, Hulkenberg, Boschung, and DP, with Max out.
the leclercs are 7-13
i like how you start the 2028 season and promptly take max out
giving red bull a strong start to the season
2028 but yeah
how tf are max and checo still together
17 cars remain
the answer to the arthur score question is no
last on track
P17
Lewis, Zhou, Sainz, DP and Max retire
"Leclerc is on the podium!"
"Charles or Arthur?"
Then Tsunoda, Stroll, Russell, Perez, Gasly, Ocon, and Sargeant beats Albon to P10 by half a second
sargeant points again 
Then it's Pourchaire, the VCARBs (boschung then cordeel), Nissany and Nico
ofc its bos before cor
arthur x charles
fr
sainz always seems to be the best driver in these races
constructors championship, mclaren have 44, aston in p2 have 22 💀
then Ferrari with 15, merc with 8, red bull and alpine with 6, and Williams with 1
Seven constructors in the points.
aston is half of mclaren lol
hmmm i wonder why red bull only had 6
glares at DP
DP: uh what
mclaren's race has already been ruined
bro what the hell why are there 9 constructors so close
i can barely see the top group of 5 and the bottom ish group of 4
NAD THE TWO MCLAREN
theres the distinct top 5
a slight gap to the next 4
and then sauber
I was right
and dp is literally an agent of chaos 💀
i think it's less than halfway
Onto round 2 in Suzuka
Drugo vs Romeo is gonna boil over👀
(Vips is on Romeo’s side)
it probably doesnt help that romeo has an insane wrestler physique
2 midfield teams and sainz followed by 2 backmarkers
True 
Probably half the grid would back him
but just because they'd be too scared to fight him 
Also I’m making the WWE thing a flashback to make it fit more in the story
True
“Crap this guy did a special episode for WWE, let’s not fight him”
And the people backing Drugo are backing him bc they either idolised Senna or feel bad for Drugo😭🙏
episode "The Grid Split In Half"
zhou overtakes 3 cars by bending physics
the sauber's so slow it can phase through the grid
Ferrari got pushed over after Romeo got his wrestler physique, no wonder Ferrari got scared afterwards 🙏😭
the guy or the team
Like bro went from a somewhat muscley guy to a unit of a man
i remember that bit
Poor guy though, I forgot Romeo had achieved his physique before LV😭
that only lasted a lap
Anyways, loredrop in 30 min
he could probably push an f1 car and not even struggle
Probably
No wonder the grid isn’t messing with bro (except Drugo)
drugovich has some balls of steel to confront wrestler romeo
Tsunoda on pole in Japan, then Piastri, Norris, Russell, Sainz, C.Leclerc, Stroll, Hamilton, Verstappen, Albon, Perez, Gasly, Sargeant, Ocon, Pourchaire, Boschung, Cordeel, Zhou, Hulkenberg, A.Leclerc, DP and Nissany.
Any predictions as to the Japan result?
Drunk 😳😳
its what i call dpmu races that end up in the most random results ever
Tsunoda wins at home for the second year in a row. Sainz is P2 and Leclerc makes it a double podium for Ferrari. Piastri P4, Stroll P5, then Russell, Norris, Albon, Cordeel and Verstappen.
Ah I see
Amaury points for VCARB 🔥
i like how max fell off after getting punted out of the first race
verstappen getting outraced by the junior team
cordeel to red bull 2029??
This race it was Checo's turn to DNF
that's the wall, k-mag
yum wall
Arthur is unfortunately again last on track
cordeel was p9 while boschung finished p17 💀
Glory for one Leclerc, disappointment for the other
1 point in 2 races
dont worry he'll have his resurgence
he overcame the p8 merchant allegations
there was a season break between japan and imola 💀
It's time for Imola, we go from the beginning of April to the middle of May
zhou and hulkenburg are fighting for the lead
Back to short quali
perez crashes at the hairpin
antonellis name is so long i either shorten it to just Kimi Antonelli or A. Kimi Antonelli
bro went so far out he started phasing into the ground
the textures are a bit off
Any guesses for quali for imola?
Yuki Tsunoda takes pole from George Russell by 5 thousandths of a second! Norris P3, Piastri P4, then Sainz, Verstappen, Stroll, C.Leclerc, Perez, and then Hamilton in P10. Then Albon, Gasly, Ocon, Pourchaire, Sargeant, Boschung, Cordeel, Nissany, Zhou, Hulkenberg, A. Leclerc and DP.
1 second man..
how do you cause a safety car a second after VSC ends
i dont think aston fell off 
theyre still 5th r&d
accelerating out of control
but i think those top 5 must genuinely all be equal
because its the only explanation
how ferrari have 3 podiums in 2 races, aston have a pole and a win, merc have a front row with george, and how mclaren took a 1-2 in Australia
i mean when i did my monza sprint
we got a safety car
and then on the restart someone crashed at turn 1 so another safety car
and then it happened one more time before the end of the sprint
Who will win the Imola GP?
not one unique experience man 😭😭
