Super Trofeo livery reveal in #racing-games

[fallow breach]

We move along to Shanghai.

predictions?

[floral apex]

i will alternate between my f1 23 save and my f1 manager save

Might actually finish this season tbh

this is a crazy trophy cabinet tbh

consistency? whats that?

Might employ the @fallow breach method on tracks i know i will suck at (aka simming them)

[fallow breach]

[fallow breach]

have you seen any of dp's cabinets

[floral apex]

uh yes

I've seen the painfully red DNF "trophy"

[fallow breach]

2024: 5x P1, 4x P2, 1x P3 (14x no podium)
2025: 4x P1, 2x P2, 2x P3 (16x no podium)
2026: 15x P1, 1x P2 (8x no podium) + title
2027: 15x P1, 4x P2, 1x P3 (4x no podium) + title
2028 (4 races): 4x P1

DP has 43 wins, 59 podiums and 75 poles in 100 starts

(Japan didnt count as pole)

[floral apex]

that math is easy

[fallow breach]

yeah

now i can say exactly that for every 4 races he's done he's got 3 poles

[floral apex]

oh its wet quali

[fallow breach]

i have one wet session and it's not even the interesting type (its dry to wet at the very end of gp quali)

that means earlier laps are crucial before the rain comes

therefore anti climactic

[fallow breach]

Dry SQ, S and GP
and as i said, GPQ is dry to wet

[fallow breach]

^

[floral apex]

ooh rain stopped its wet t odry

[red wadi]

Ngl the LMP2 is looking hella sexy #racing-games

[floral apex]

In f1 23 im doing zandvoort

In f1 manager 24 i'm about to enter zandvoort

Pellegrini Motorsport will run Cadillac Hypercar for 2033 12h of Sao Paolo in shock debut
The team will do a one-off (presumably) in the Cadillac Hypercar for the WEC race that'll happen in 2 months time, the line-up will be announced soon

[red wadi]

PM in WEC👀

[floral apex]

wHat?!?

Why do Max and Hauger have 4 minute lap times?!?

[fallow breach]

i was wondering where the hell jehan and max were

[floral apex]

I was so shocked by max and hauger i didnt even notice daruvala

[keen brook]

I have no clue what that reference could be.

[fallow breach]

i was looking down the grid like "hmm guess the back will be 6, 7 seconds off?"

nope. 42, 195 and 196 seconds.

i was right with zhou being 6.3 though

[floral apex]

DPM type backmarkers

[fallow breach]

i was gonna say were they scored on their outlaps but that doesnt happen

also who the hell has an outlap 4 minutes long

[floral apex]

according to geoege russell, max

[fallow breach]

investigating lap times, daruvala was just really slow by the looks of things

as for max
216 second 1st sector?!

and dennis
215.5 second sector 1

[fallow breach]

63, 29 and 41 in each sector

[fallow breach]

Max was 216.5, 29.4, 41.7
Dennis was 215.5, 30.2, 42.7

[floral apex]

bro who impeded them, the DPMs?!?

[fallow breach]

how did dpm make an appearance in xdpu

more importantly how the hell did they apparently court max verstappen /j

[fallow breach]

crazy crossover

[floral apex]

DP73 would be the type of guy to impede other drivers into 4 minute lap times

[fallow breach]

dp73 would probably score a 4 minute lap

[red wadi]

Pellegrini Motorsport to announce WEC trio in 2 hours
The trio will most likely be the same as the IMSA back-up trio, PM will make it's racing debut and it's unknown if they will join WEC full-time or if it's a one-off since PM isn't on Cadillac's team list as of August 2033

[floral apex]

i keep misreading 2033 as 2023 bruh

[fallow breach]

that is crazy.

no massive shuffle of the grid that sends p16 in quali to p6 on the grid this time

but everyone starts on mediums... except DP and Pourchaire on softs.

[floral apex]

remember when pellegrini motorsport was a meme

the alpine seems to have pace here in zandvoort

[fallow breach]

Sprint order rn: DP and Piastri are 1-2, then Bearman up to P3 from 6th, then Norris, Tsunoda, Hamilton up from P8(!), then Gasly, Leclerc, Pourchaire up 3 places to 9th, then Sainz in P10.

[floral apex]

bro my wet quali was only about 2/3s of Q1 and thats it

[red wadi]

Yeah

[fallow breach]

bruh verstappen is still p21 onto lap 3

[red wadi]

Luckily time will go abit faster so it’ll be 2034 soon

[fallow breach]

Pourchaire's blinding form on the race start has eased a little on the softs, he's P10, and out of those bottom 3 that had really weird quali times only Jehan has improved, he's up to P18.

[floral apex]

P8 for Sandford

for once both alpines qualify where theyre meant to be

[red wadi]

McKinnon boutta join Pelleretirementhome Motorsport 😈

[fallow breach]

btw idk if you know about this canada but i started and did the first race of a driver career with DP (using #66) at Red Bull partnering Verstappen

[floral apex]

oh leclerc had a horrible start

[fallow breach]

DP got pole by 3.5 seconds and won by like 40 in bahrain

hes 66 rated

[floral apex]

i think he hit the antistall on the start

[fallow breach]

damn

[floral apex]

cuz i looked at his onboard and he was on first gear for a lot longer than he shouldve been

[fallow breach]

incredibly strange top 5 rn in constructors

[Xe] 188
113
32
31
27

Oh wow.

That's insane

The wet came sooner than anticipated in quali

Not everyone even finished their lap before rain began

[floral apex]

that should make things a bit exciting

that might be the first time ice seen an ai hit the antistall in the f1 game
cuz leclerc got off the line really slowly and his onboard showed 1st gear for a signficiant amount of time

[fallow breach]

the rain isn't stopping.

The order I can say with 100% certainty will be DP, Bearman, Verstappen, Piastri, Daruvala, Perez, Martins, Zhou, Magnussen, Hauger, Fittipaldi, Gasly, Leclerc, Sainz, Pourchaire, Norris, Tsunoda, Russell, Ocon, Stroll, Sargeant and Hamilton

[floral apex]

ngl i got worried that leclerc somehow managed to get a mechanical failure on the race start

[fallow breach]

I knew that since 9 minutes from the end.

Even more anticlimactic than expected.

[red wadi]

WEC trio revealed
The trio will be:
Felipe Drugovich (33)
Juri Vips (33)
Jordan Longfourth (32)

[fallow breach]

drugo and vips

[floral apex]

if theres jordan longfourth is there jordan longfifth

[fallow breach]

and what happened to jordan longthird

[red wadi]

2 ex-F1 drivers and a American who’s there bc Cadillac wants him in that seat (Romeo might sign him for the LMP2 project)

[fallow breach]

Sauber 8-9, Haas 10-11 is crazy

[floral apex]

I got the perfect duo name for drugo and juri:
Juripe Drugovips

[red wadi]

🔥

[fallow breach]

YES 🔥

[floral apex]

I dont know how to include the third one tho

[fallow breach]

juripe drugovips IV (fourth)

[floral apex]

lmao

Bro got demoted to just roman numerals

[red wadi]

Jordan Longfourth is a Cadillac driver anyways, so ig that’s fair

[fallow breach]

evidence every trio has a hidden duo

[floral apex]

i like how vips won an f1 title and pelley went "yk what you're with me now"

[fallow breach]

"i cant have you stealing my shine and winning 7 more"

[floral apex]

bros smarter than we thought

[red wadi]

Vips AND Drugovich, bro is just going after the older F1 drivers (also Ocon for the Super Trofeo)

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

Hes gonna pick up Verstappen for his esports team

[fallow breach]

wouldnt put that past him mind

canada is the biggest pelley lore leaker out there

[red wadi]

Bro would cook some name like Pellegrini eMotorsport, and announce Max

[floral apex]

bro i just cook way too hard

[floral apex]

PellE-racing
it sounds like Pelley Racing

[red wadi]

FIA greenlights Pellegrini Motorsport to join F2 in 2035
Pellegrini Motorsport will officially join F2, nothing know about if Ligier will join with them. This means PM will sign 2 more drivers for the 2035 season, no plans for F1 as of right now

[floral apex]

bros becoming the sunwest of "how many drivers can one team sign?"

[red wadi]

to be fair they’re in multiple racing classes

[fallow breach]

"Time to get underway in Shanghai. Lights are on, and it's race on in China!"

[floral apex]

i feel like it would sound better if it went "lights are off and its race on!"

[red wadi]

Classes PM will join in 2034:
IMSA (LMP2)
Super Trofeo
F1 Academy
Classes PM will join in 2035 (as of 2033):
Formula 3
Formula 2

[floral apex]

f1 fans when pellegrini motorports enters f1: oh shit not a whole team!

[red wadi]

that’ll probably not happen or when the kids are older

Time for Romeo to announce absolutely nobody for the F2 team and wait on how everyone performs

That’s the easy thing about joining a class in 2 years

[floral apex]

Pelley would totally start "Formula Ligier" or "Formula Twingo" series

[fallow breach]

I've said this for a while

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

Imagine an f1-type series where teams develop their own Twingo designs

[red wadi]

Formula Ligier would be fire, but bro’s stake would need to be a bit higher (Pellegrini Motorsport is like married to Ligier)

[floral apex]

And renault might end up using one of them for the road car

[red wadi]

Pellegrini Motorsport announce logo for IMSA and Formula-Series, and it’s disappointing
Pellegrini Motorsport will use Ligier’s logo for both IMSA and the Formula-series, the team will only use a unique logo for the sponsoring of the Slovakian Football Team and Slovan Bratislava

[floral apex]

bro that headline sounds like a youtube video title

[red wadi]

Imagine some guy just ranting about how Pellegrini Motorsport has “no identity” and how using Ligier’s logo is weird for like 10 minutes

[fallow breach]

[red wadi]

So what was the record for oldest driver in F2 again?

Imagine PM-Ligier signing Longfourth lol

[floral apex]

Some graphic design youtuber would make a "how i would improve Pellegrini Motorsport's logo" video

[keen brook]

31

[red wadi]

(No that won’t actually happen, Pellegrini wants the feeder team to actually be a talent factory)

[red wadi]

[fallow breach]

they make the video and its just mp's logo with the letters swapped

[red wadi]

Also Pellegrini has said he won’t join WEC full-time, nor is F1 in the works atm. So from 2035 they’ll be in 3 classes full time

[floral apex]

this does seem like a slogan pelley would use

[red wadi]

Haha yeah

[fallow breach]

theyd reverse the slogan too and say "talent accelerating"

[red wadi]

Imagine him just copying that slogan but in Slovakian

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

akceleračný talent

[red wadi]

[floral apex]

Apparently slovak just uses the english word for talent

[red wadi]

PM vs MP boutta be legendary

Slovakia vs The Netherlands

Senna vs Prost type of rivalry😭 🙏

Imagine PM making their car the opposite of orange to just mock MP

Their livery isn’t the same in any of the classes they race anyways

[floral apex]

their slovak-gan is either "Viac než len tím" or "Presadzovanie motoristického športu a vzdelávania"

[red wadi]

I’m going with the long one just so everyone struggles with it

[floral apex]

thats the one marble said would be the social media bio lol "championing motorsport and education"

[fallow breach]

Zhou stopped on track i think

[fallow breach]

And that is practically perfect timing too, i was about to pit anyway as it is

[red wadi]

I see, Pellegrini Motorsport boutta just go full slovak and make their livery the Slovak national logo just plastered all over the car

[fallow breach]

Literally i was just getting the "in this lap" reminder from marc that you get at the start of sector 3 on the inlap when the safety car is called

Magnussen out

Mechanical failure

[floral apex]

speaking of mechanical failures i just lost hamilton in my race

[red wadi]

Pellegrini Motorsport might be the most versatile non-car brand team

[floral apex]

Also this is their WEC car...

yeah ferrari uses red and yellow for their livery

[red wadi]

DP lost the car on the final lap on one of the straights. He veered to the runoff that cuts turn 6, and on rejoin (with a broken wing) the pen is issued.

[red wadi]

Pellegrini Motorsport will NOT continue F1A project post-2036
PM announced that they will not continue the F1A project post-2036, thus meaning they will leave the series once both women (Kate Loving and Unkown Yet) will join a different series

[fallow breach]

I forgot to check until now but 2028 rookie driver numbers:
Martins: 92
Daruvala: 67

[floral apex]

damn "unknown yet" is gonna dominate the series 🔥

[keen brook]

Unknown Yet is an interesting name.

[floral apex]

i know its a placeholder but why is it capitalized like a name

pretty sure this is what "TBA" is for

[keen brook]

Jenzer even drove a whole F3 season in 2023 with TBA.

[red wadi]

Because they wanted to make it seem like a name lol

Also love how that’s the main interest point, not PM joining a class for 2 whole years before dipping again

[keen brook]

I like the idea her name is Unknown Yet.

[floral apex]

Maybe mix up the letters to make it look like a foreign name

[keen brook]

championship fight after the 2027 Australian Grand Prix

Iirc there’s a footballer called “Wonderboy” in the South African league, so everything can be possible ig

Nah but the 2nd driver will be announced soon

(They have 4 months until F1A testing starts)

[floral apex]

and theyre off

[keen brook]

There's even someone with the name Dude Person.

[floral apex]

oh that guy lmao

[red wadi]

Ngl if PM don’t announce someone in 2 months they might as well put Charlotte in that car

[keen brook]

So it would be possible Unknown Yet is her real name.

[floral apex]

i like how you just got a straight line

[fallow breach]

yeahhh its staying straight until like zandvoort or monza

[floral apex]

Is that literally the last upgrade available

[fallow breach]

yes.

everything else is maximised

[floral apex]

lol imagine being so good the only way to improve the car is to wait for your team to do maintenance

[fallow breach]

look at the 104k r&d points as well

[fallow breach]

that was what we were doing during 2027 as well

[floral apex]

those are going nowhere

[fallow breach]

until the next reg change ofc

[floral apex]

I guess this also shows how much ea abandoned myteam mode
like theres no secret upgrades available or anything

[red wadi]

Pellegrini Motorsport rumoured to join GT World Challenge in 2036

[floral apex]

you just max out and thats it

[fallow breach]

also we have $263.13m in the bank which we can do nothing with bc we have spec 3 every part of every facility and max perks,

[floral apex]

at least f1 manager lets you go up to level 5

[keen brook]

It'll stay straight.

Durability upgrades don't affect the graph.

[red wadi]

Should I reveal PM’s budget?

[fallow breach]

only use we have for that money is if we were to do contract negotiation

but we've held oscar down firmly no contest since s2 and i can't customise the contract offer so while oscar is one of the best drivers in my career mode he's only like the 12th highest paid signed driver, where drivers like lando, lewis and charles are on 28.75, 28.5m, oscar's only on 16.75m

[floral apex]

idk its probably 750m

[fallow breach]

should i go for whoever the highest paid driver is on the market at the end of s5?

[red wadi]

Possibly

Romeo’s network is 1.8bn

[fallow breach]

Should I sim or race Miami?

[floral apex]

Can you handle iy

[red wadi]

So he could definitely put 750m into PM, and the team has so many different sponsors bro is getting even richer

[floral apex]

I mean i guess you could

Last time you got taken out soo

[fallow breach]

i would say yes but in gps i've only ever finished it in s2 and that was 9th

[floral apex]

You dnfed 3 miami gps?!?

[fallow breach]

and i think that wasnt even a driven race if my memory serves me correctly

[fallow breach]

i think that was still the era when i treated xenon as a side thing and a sim series

[fallow breach]

s1 dnf
s2 9th
s3 shows 20th but it was a dnf
s4 dnf

[floral apex]

bro has zero luck in miami

[fallow breach]

i'm pretty sure that one chicane where max knocked the bollard irl plays into the driven dnfs

i think im best simming miami tbh

it's gonna have to be short session sim tho bc i accidentally opened practice instead of changing session length

Romeo Pellegrini announces PM has ‘enough money to join F1’
The Slovakia based team has enough money to join F1 but probably will not join the series for the foreseeable future, this mostly being because Ligier is not interested in trying to return to F1 and Ligier being the main manufacturer for Pellegrini Motorsport. This being announced after they announced they will not continue their F1A project is interesting, rumour has it Ligier wants to fully focus on their LMP2 and F3 cars

[fallow breach]

theo pourchaire moving aside for dp on an outlap? impossible

(yes that is theo not jehan)

It's a Xenon 1-2 on the Sprint grid in Miami!

Norris P3, Bearman P4, then Verstappen, Ocon, Pourchaire, Tsunoda, Sainz and Perez. Daruvala is P11 from Martins, Gasly, Leclerc, Russell, Hamilton, Magnussen, Sargeant, Stroll, Zhou, Fittipaldi and Hauger.

DP wins the Sprint in Miami, Piastri P2.

[keen brook]

Vesti spun into the wall and out of the race.

Then Zhou locked up into Gabi, causing light front wing damage and getting a 5 second time penalty.

[fallow breach]

Ocon finished ahead of Verstappen.

0.261 was the gap between DP and Oscar

i'm convinced some of these simmed sessions had xenon team orders (we STILL dont have a name for them)

but i feel like its more like "fernando is faster than you" but its dp

[keen brook]

Then Gasly had a gearbox failure, taking him out of the race.

And then there was an issue with fitting on the front right tire at Bottas' pit stop.

Ollie's win in Melbourne

[fallow breach]

DP is on pole with Piastri P2. Then it's Bearman, Gasly, Ocon, Tsunoda, Norris, Verstappen, Russell and Stroll.

That is an absolutely incredible performance for George

Considering his teammate is P21

only three teams have their drivers in back to back positions on the grid:
Xenon 1-2
Alpine 4-5
Haas 19-20 💀

How to tell if a film is written by Pelley: almost every car used is a Twingo

[red wadi]

I love how the Twingo meme stayed even after it stopped being used (it got transformed into a sim)

[fallow breach]

DP and Piastri once again get the 1-2 in Miami.

Norris is P3 then Bearman.

Ocon is best of the rest, then Gasly, Verstappen, Perez, Daruvala and Leclerc.

[fallow breach]

Piastri took FL

[floral apex]

Tbh pelley could write an entire feature film and have only his drivers on the cast and crew

yep

2 championships, 45 wins, 61 podiums, 77 poles, 102 races

[red wadi]

Pretty sure Romeo was 24 by the time he joined F1😭 🙏

[fallow breach]

bro has an insane record

[red wadi]

Well bro started karting at 17 so yeah

[fallow breach]

thats incredible for a late bloomer

starting karting at 17, getting to f1 at 24 and winning 8 titles

[floral apex]

imagine telling people on pelley's 17th birthday that this kid would win 8 F1 world titles
they'd probably admit you to a mental hospital

[red wadi]

Well at the start he got carried by Slovakia’s government really wanting him in the higher classes to boost the nation’s popularity but we don’t talk about that

[fallow breach]

idk when dp would have ascended the ranks in the lore

[red wadi]

They’d indeed think you’d be crazy

[floral apex]

Ok bruh

[red wadi]

yes this was a big part of the lore

[floral apex]

I just watched charles leclerc try to overtake me and then losethe rear and spin into a wall

[red wadi]

They deadass starting sponsoring McLaren to get bro into IMSA, bro cooked for one race and let’s not talk about bro’s F3 run

[floral apex]

how to overtake an alpine
step 1: don't

DP's Twitter (idc its called x) profile:

"22 | F1 driver and owner @XenPolF1 | 2x champion | 45x winner | absolutely minted | no i'm not the admin of my team's twitter"

[red wadi]

Also, Romeo working from his home means the team has a different boss at the HQ

[floral apex]

who is it

[red wadi]

According to LinkedIn it’s a bloke called Richard Clarkson

[floral apex]

related to jeremy clarkson?

Bro that crash red flagged the race 💀

[red wadi]

No….. he’s from New Zealand but it is a Top Gear/The Grand Tour reference

[floral apex]

Oh its hammond and clarkson combined i see

[red wadi]

Fun fact: in the drafts for this save Richard Clarkson was the name for Romeo Pellegrini

[floral apex]

ok leclerc losing the rear while trying to pass me on the pit straight red flagged the race

[red wadi]

Yeah

[red wadi]

Bro was originally from New Zealand

[floral apex]

kiwi richard clarkson doesnt give the same vibe tbh

[red wadi]

Fr, plus F1 already has a kiwi driver

[floral apex]

and slovakia is a bit more relatable given its in europe

[red wadi]

I think what made me switch to Romeo Pellegrini and Slovakia is bc I found a Wikipedia article about some Slovak politician named Peter Pellegrini (the inspiration for Romeo’s dad, who has the same name)

DP = Double P, DP is Romeo’s dad confirmed?!

Well DP is like ages younger than Romeo but whatever

[floral apex]

pelley's long lost brother?!?!?!?

[red wadi]

Oh my

But Richard Clarkson is back….. as HQ boss

[floral apex]

fun fact: romeo pellegrini's name is apparently so long the database editor had to give him the antonelli treatment

"R. Pellegrini"

[red wadi]

Damn

[floral apex]

i cant believe leclerc crashing into a wall while trying to pass me triggered a red flag

nobody DNFed hes still in the race

[red wadi]

Also fun fact: Romeo’s full name “Romeo Hunter Pellegrini” is a reference to my (former) fav F1 driver Logan Hunter Sargeant, it’s something I like to do in my saves. Hell even F1M legend Jonas Friis returned as a Latvian in this save

Should Per return as well

[floral apex]

Next thing we know pellegrini opens a newspaper and sees news of a new israeli startup making waves called IsrFast

[red wadi]

“Pellegrini Motorsport buys IsrFast” the headline that killed motorsports

Yeah I’m returning Per Christensen as a promising Danish driver, that’ll be the final crossover

[floral apex]

but instead of racing they manufacture helmets

[red wadi]

Can’t have Ido Cohen running the IMSA team as well😭 🙏

That would be fire but IsrFast lowkey made me lose fun in F1M so can’t have them in the RPU as well🙏

[floral apex]

I think these two make sense tho cuz they barely got a spotlight

[red wadi]

Per Christensen signs with Pellegrini Motorsport
The Danish 17 year old will be the all round test driver until a racing seat opens up, Romeo said the following: “Per has the brightest future in motorsports, we have to utilise that”

[floral apex]

Their lore ran like 2 weeks before you changed it up again

[red wadi]

Yeah, I’m definitely making Per and Jonas friends again

[red wadi]

Lowkey, that version of Per was the most fun I ever had with a character. Bro was so unserious 🙏

[red wadi]

PerFan1 boutta return and glaze harder than Romeo😭🙏

[floral apex]

this is kinda funny cuz i have a driver named per jensen in my save lmao

[floral apex]

the only fan worse than the entire slovakian fanbase:

[red wadi]

The collab motorsports didn’t need

[red wadi]

I’ll never forget the moment I found Jonas Christensen

Yeah I’m making PerFan1 return

[floral apex]

The only person who can piss off the slovakian fanbase

[red wadi]

They’re either gonna collab or PerFan1 is gonna glaze harder than the pulleys and they gonna end up in some crazy mess

I gotta find that one Per photo again

The return of the yipyapper

[floral apex]

lmao

[red wadi]

Damn wtf this was some next level goofyness

Found bro

[red wadi]

Per Christensen: The Return Of The Yipyapper sounds like some kids movie

Bro looks like Romeo Pellegrini and I can’t unsee it😭 🙏

[floral apex]

HMMMM

[red wadi]

Maybe that’s why Romeo called him the biggest talent in all of motorsports right now😭 🙏

[floral apex]

and to think these were just randomly generated drivers from the save

[red wadi]

Romeo: looked 31 at 24
Per: looks 31 at 18

[red wadi]

Yeah

Then we got Jonas Christensen lol

[red wadi]

Bro’s hairline is more cooked than Romeo’s F3 career🙏 🙏

[frozen thunder]

constructors and driver standings going into mexico

i have returned after beating the allegations

[red wadi]

Damn, allegations in the big 2025😭 🙏

[floral apex]

I mean tbf romeo had a bunch of crashes and ditches

so that means wtf halpened to per

[red wadi]

Per Christensen boutta cook in the Super Trofeo, LMP2, F4, F3 and the sim (his schedule is cooked)

[frozen thunder]

people are questioning the validity of my japanese ancestry 🙏

i had to solve that issue first

[red wadi]

What did bro go through 😭 🙏 🙏

[red wadi]

(Yes Per will be driving the F1A car but obviously not in F1A, bro’s just gonna run a few private tests with Ligier)

[atomic crypt]

i am back on the quest to save Perez

[floral apex]

How many more ditches did he end up in

[red wadi]

Oh damn

[red wadi]

Many apparently bc bro looks the same as Romeo whilst Romeo is like 8 years older

Nvm Romeo is 17 years older

Bro is double Per’s age yet they both look 31🙏 🙏

[floral apex]

pellegrini: impressive self care routine
per: war flashbacks

[red wadi]

Also poor Per is going to test 5 different cars😭 🙏

[fallow breach]

i did full quali for imola and wow.

[fallow breach]

Daruvala P5

[frozen thunder]

good thing we’re bringing oscar in next season

i think oscar will rival lewis

[fallow breach]

osc! osc! osc!

[frozen thunder]

but who knows

i’d just rather not immediately sack nico and stir up the season

[red wadi]

Wait, what if Per is actually the huge talent Romeo says he is and he cooks in all 5 classes

[floral apex]

everyone: using oscar because hes a better driver
me: almost gets my day ruined by oscar

[fallow breach]

oscar's been a solid number 2 driver for my team in 2028

p1 is reserved for dp

even more so than it was for Verstappen in 2023

[red wadi]

Oscar ghoasted in my save, time for PM to save his career

Nah, PM be signing anyone except the second F1A driver

[fallow breach]

[floral apex]

[frozen thunder]

i cannot stand it anymore

[red wadi]

PM: signs Per and Jonas
Also PM: forgets about their second F1A seat

[fallow breach]

DP has 169 points. The most possible points after Miami is 172.

[red wadi]

They have 3 months to confirm someone 😭 🙏

Bc it’s October 2033

[floral apex]

at this point they might as well be scouting the local karting races

[red wadi]

[red wadi]

And still end up signing some guy for their media team

They be avoiding F1A like crazy😭 🙏

Maybe they should sign McKinnon fr😭 😭

[floral apex]

Imagine if pelley just goes to some random teamsport and signs the most promising woman he could find

“Yeah she is a former school teacher but who cares, her surname is Schumacher so surely she has potential”

[frozen thunder]

THATS WHY HES A GOAT

BAAAHHHH 🔥 🔥

LAST TO FIRST

[red wadi]

Nah tbh I think Romeo is just waiting until he finds the “generational talent but not on the level of Per” type of women for that seat

[fallow breach]

maybe

[red wadi]

PerStan1 ahh statement

I feel bad for Marble, bc he missed the PerStan1 era

[fallow breach]

what did i miss

[red wadi]

The biggest glazer ever

PerStan1 was lowkey a bigger glazer than the pulleys

[fallow breach]

damn

the pulleys are real big glazers

i see the magnitude

[red wadi]

PerStan1 moment

[floral apex]

perez just took out alonso's front wing

[red wadi]

PerStan1 was worse

And now they’re collabing💀 🙏

[floral apex]

ok this is funny cuz i remember at my old high school i had a substitute with the last name Schumacher

[fallow breach]

go from perstan1 to that

[red wadi]

Motorsport fanbases are cooked now

[red wadi]

The pulleys and PerStan1’s level of glazing will singlehandedly kill every other fanbase there is

[floral apex]

well at least f1 doesnt have a fanbase left to kill!

[red wadi]

Per: goes 0.001 seconds faster than a main driver
PerStan1: GIVE HIM THE SEAT NOW

[floral apex]

takes provisional pole for a solid 2 seconds because he was the first one out in quali
"GIVE HIM THE SEAT"

[red wadi]

Nah but seriously Per having to test for PM in at least 4 classes is mental

[red wadi]

Yeah sounds like PerStan1

[floral apex]

ANOTHER RED FLAG

[red wadi]

💀 😭

[floral apex]

i saw an alphatauri dot go off the track and back up some of the grid

[red wadi]

Damn

[floral apex]

ok checking some of the logs and im proud to announce:

Hamilton is still the only DNF so i assume it was a spin

[red wadi]

At the pace they’re testing bro is gonna be working on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday 😭 🙏

[floral apex]

They forgot to change his engine components before the race apparently

bro alonso was retiring

and he just casually rolled down the entire pit straight before stopping at turn 1

his engine went out at the final corner

he couldve stopped on the inside of the final corner or in the pits but nope, turn 1

pulling running away with it

oh

seems like everyones pit crews got a downgrade

Pellegrini had a chance at points and he bottles it! He crashes at Turn 1 and is now at the back of the grid.

Carlos Sainz gets a puncture as the rain starts falling!

Everyone switches to inters as the rain starts making the track slippery, as proven by Pellegrini's crash earlier in the race.

Lawson ahs just crashed.

Pellegrini couldn't support the damage and crashes out near the same place he did 10 laps earlier!

Oh Pellegrini was involved in a crash during that, he's recieved a penalty!

amd the rain has ended here in Zandvoort!

a last second pit stop for all drivers here as track conditions become unsuitable for inters!

Abbi Pulling wins the Dutch GP!

WCC Update
Mercedes is P11 with 0 points

WDC Update
Norris and Vesti are P21 and P22 respectively

Abbi Pulling has won 6 consecutive races, giving her the team record for longest win streak as Verstappen's teammate!

The previous record was 5, set by Kimi Antonelli in 2027.

Abbi also becomes the first driver other than Verstappen to win more than 3 races in a row since Antonelli in 2028.

Oscar Piastri has pole for the 2028 Canadian Grand Prix from Norris and DP. Ocon is P4, then Perez, Daruvala, Bearman, Sainz, Gasly and Leclerc.

welcome back force india 2017-18

Norris, Perez, Bearman and Stroll take grid penalties.
So:
DP P3 -> P2
Ocon P4 -> P3
Daruvala P6 -> P4
Sainz P8 -> P5
Gasly P9 -> P6
Leclerc P10 -> P7
Verstappen P11 -> P8

Norris will be P9
Perez P13
Bearman P16
Stroll P22

As DP enters the pits onto lap 8, he leads from Piastri, Gasly, Daruvala, Sainz, Leclerc, Ocon, Norris, Verstappen and Pourchaire.

Pitters on Lap 7:
DP
Leclerc
Verstappen
Hamilton
Norris
Martins
Pourchaire
Sargeant

DP comes out P3, then immediately takes P2 from Gasly. Everyone else is P15-22

So as they run it's Piastri, DP, Gasly, Daruvala, Sainz, Ocon, Russell, Perez, Tsunoda and Bearman. Tsunoda and Bearman are on softs and have not pitted, all else in the top 10 on mediums with only DP having pitted for them (Piastri and Gasly to Perez started on mediums)

Fittipaldi, Hauger and Stroll are also on mediums, and Zhou is on hards.

Bearman and Tsunoda pitted on lap 8, and then Piastri, Daruvala, Sainz, Ocon, Perez, Russell, Hauger, Zhou and Stroll pit on lap 9.

So it's only Gasly and Fittipaldi left to pit. On the road, DP leads from Gasly, Piastri, Fittipaldi, Daruvala, Sainz, Leclerc, Norris, Verstappen and Hamilton.

After all have pitted:
Lap 11/18 - 7 Laps Remain
1 DP
2 Piastri
3 Gasly

DP is 20 seconds in the lead from Piastri, Piastri is 13 seconds clear of Gasly and Gasly is 3 seconds clear of Daruvala.

DP wins the Canadian GP! Piastri is P2 and Pierre Gasly completes the podium for Alpine.

[keen brook]

damn

[fallow breach]

vcarb have cooked up such a good car they're dragging theo pourchaire to p12 in the championship

yk how hard it was for xenon to get Pourchaire in the points in 2024

He's scored 4 times in 2028.

Including 4th in Monaco of all places(!)

He has more points than Carlos Sainz.

Pourchaire has 23, Sainz has 22.

WHAT?!

VCARB DEVELOPED ANOTHER UPGRADE, THEY'RE TOP.

VCARB ARE AHEAD OF XENON.

[keen brook]

RB is really cooking.

[fallow breach]

Gasly is absolutely cooking rn, he has the same amount of points as Verstappen 🔥

[keen brook]

[fallow breach]

im gonna do full quali in spain

how are vcarb faring in your save bvbocon

definitely not the top team on paper

Time for Qualifying in Spain!

[keen brook]

They're doing really well in 2027.

They made a huge step.

regular points scorers now

[fallow breach]

In my save in 2028 in Canada they were 3rd R&D but 5th WCC

[keen brook]

In Jeddah Magnussen even fought for a podium until the 2nd red flag came 1 lap after he pitted.

[fallow breach]

Daruvala was in the mix for a podium in Canada in the early stages

[keen brook]

Which then ironically played into Zhou's favor and he was RB's points scorer then.

And RB is dominating the penalty points "championship".

[fallow breach]

It did dry up, but not enough.

[keen brook]

4.2 seconds, damn

[fallow breach]

just another day in the office for dp

22 years old and collecting dominant poles like participation ribbons

That is his 80th pole.

He will have started 106 races after Spain.

Oh, and Canada was the day he broke clear of Alonso's win count

He now has 47, Alonso retired on 46

Another FP1 for Luke, Antonelli replaced Piastri in FP1 at Ferrari, Stanek replaced Tsunoda in FP1 at Aston Martin, Cowell replaced Sainz in FP1 at Red Bull, O'Sullivan replaced Bottas in FP1 at Alpine, Doohan replaced Sargeant in FP1 at Kick Sauber and Wiggins replaced Pourchaire in FP1 at Haas.

speaking of RB, Magnussen 2nd

[frozen thunder]

beautiful

i will be taking this

[fallow breach]

bro why.

i got spun on lap 3

wing damage so i had to pit on lap 4

pit phase i was only P4 somehow

Ollie Bearman somehow finished P2 and I was only p3.

WHY WAS THAT CLOSE.

THE MCLARENS ARE THIRD IN R&D

AND WHY COULDNT VCARB SHOW UP TO TAKE DOWN THE MCLARENS

THEY WERE 12TH AND 21ST IN THE FASTEST CAR!

at least Bearman was the only McLaren scorer

btw russell scored 8 points for merc

And its still alright because Piastri won

But like

WHY AM I BEHIND A MCLAREN

And why was he actually too close to taking that win

note to self, simulate spain.

i have literally never won the spanish gp

based on the way the actual race went with me running it i just know that the mclarens would have took the 1-2 and i'd have somehow not made the podium

Austria time. I'm doing short quali sessions, and racing bc austria is a good track

[keen brook]

Russell went wide.

[fallow breach]

DP and Piastri are 1-2 in sprint qualifying.

[keen brook]

Bottas locked up.

[fallow breach]

DP wins the sprint in Austria, but of course, Lando Norris has to ruin our day with P2.

It was DP, Norris, Piastri, Bearman, Leclerc, Sainz, Gasly and Verstappen.

Fully wet quali.

...or not.

DP has pole for the Austrian Grand Prix from Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri.

Gasly and Ocon are 4th and 5th, then Norris, Leclerc, Pourchaire, Daruvala and Russell.

Pellegrini Motorsport to delay 2nd F1A announcement to post-testing

[floral apex]

bro Pellegrini was on course to score more points in Zandvoort

and then he spun off at turn 1 and hit the wall, demoting him to the back of the grid

and if that wasn't enough he crashed out at the same corner a few laps later after presumably hitting someone else (he got a penalty)

[red wadi]

Damn😭

Also PM delaying the announcement show that F1A took a backseat

[floral apex]

Pellegrini even made his first Q3 and qualified a career high P10

only to crash twice in the race

[fallow breach]

typical pellegrini

[fallow breach]

in mine nico Hulkenberg got a drive at ferrari at midseason

he qualified p13 for silverstone and is still there on lap 3

[red wadi]
