Williams straight line boutta be funny
they might qualify decently for once
Well it’s gonna be Verstappen P1 with the topspeed parts
Guys
2021 flashbacks
Well it's even worse this time around because somebody already died due to poor weather at Spa earlier this month
I don't think the race will go as planned...
Spa is way too dangerous
Spa itself isn't too dangerous. The issue is the weather paired with the abysmal safety of open wheel race cars
spa is only dangerous for lower divisions of single seaters because they’re the ones that crash every opportunity they have
They're also not as safe as F1s or F2s
have you even watched a F2 or F3 race? they crash for the dumbest reasons all the time
everyone know how rookies in f1 make mistakes and bump other cars and shit but in f2 and f3, it’s just them crashing into each other constantly like they have tunnel vision
.
But if those crashes happened in F1 they wouldn't result in someone dying
cars too expensive to break
Hamilton is winning this time
Mad cope
okay when ?
In your dreams
Eau Rouge is objectively dangerous
The only reason it's "not" is because f1 have difference
i think bro forgot that spa is like highspeeds 🗿
Time for nyoom
Obviously Max did get his 44th, will probably get 45th pretty easy too, comfortably wrapping up pre-Summer break part of the season.
How many consecutive wins is that for Max now btw?
7
It's surprising the skill of Max in this season
Honestly not that surprising. What is surprising is how easy it is for him in that redbull
Casually gapping the field by like 30 seconds on some races
Yeah that too
The other teams just can't keep up
I am wondering what the difference is with the cars, because the RB is miles faster compared to others
The aero?
Could be that
There's several points that could be reason but I wonder exactly what they are
Baffling how it's such a gap when another Red Bull exists. Max does deserve a bit of praise for being such a weapon together with that car.
What might be dangerous is not Eau Rouge, it's the Raidillon
But the formula Alpine crash earlier this month wasn't due to a turn, it happened on the Kemmel straight. The issue is that these cars aren't safe and race control decided to restart the race for the final lap even though there was no visibility whatsoever
eau rouge is the bottom part, raidillon is the top part
oh thx
Yep, Eau Rouge is the left - right "chicane", Raidillon is the left turn
This guy's back be like :monkas:
Dang, I was about to post that. 
KEKW they realized how bad it was 
Fastge

appropriate
Called it on another server literally a week ago cause of Otmar's high on copium responses about Alpine's form, and there it is 
Piastri was right
🚨 | Mattia Binotto is reportedly on Alpine's shortlist as a potential next team principal.
[@AlbertFabrega]
762
please say sike
Holy shit.
Alpine's downfall is cooking.
poor pierre
I don't think Binotto is actually that bad. Alpine's whole idea of how to handle F1 not aligning with what they put into it is the issue.
Otmar just happened to make himself more of a clown by losing both Alonso and Piastri, Binotto didn't have blunders that big.
DiRT 2 was wild 
Singular event in China and immediately he's a buddy and wants to 1v1, this game. If only they knew that this is the future of FIA 
Wasn't Otmar at Alpine for a year after "denying" the claims he would leave Aston?
Qualifying delayed.
Q1 is on btw
Oh no, it's a sprint weekend
Out in Q1: Alb, Zhou, Ric, Sar, Hul (not in order)
Did Ric get track limit?
Stroll dominance will bore fans 🥱
Bruh, Max almost out.
He lucky
Unfortunately
Oh.
Hooooo that was snarky from the race engineer
Indeed
Give max some of his own medicine
Why so mad
Red Bull’s DRS = “I win”
5-place grid penalty for Max in main race.
He’ll still win
Yeah
So 5th maybe 6th starting? He’ll be in P1 by lap 10 or less.
Yeah.
Hell still win by 30+ seconds too
Literally it’s so boring he doesn’t deserve the wins bro. I’m glad Lando smashed his trophy 😭
Red Bull is boring.
I actually like Checo. But dammit I hate the RB-19 continues to get away with that fuck ass wing that the FIA continues to not do anything about
8 tenths 💀
I won't say their boring but in a way I wish they weren't so ahead
This was already stated yesterday 🗿
And he's gonna start 6th. 🗿
8 tenths 💀
I have to wait until documents come out. 🗿
Sure, it's nice seeing someone on the top spot every race but I would actually prefer to have three teams fighting for the championship instead of just RB cruising to it
My when same reaction as kiwi
Q3: Ver, Lec, Per, Ham, Sai, Pia, Nor, Rus, Alo, Str
Decent
Yeah, but that fast fucking RB19 will come up from no where through first place and that's it
Even tho he went over the white lines he got to keep P2 💀
Ferrari did well today actually
RB18 did P14 to P1 last year and won with like 15s 🗿
Yup I know 🗿
Nah I think it just looks like a F1 My Team Career lobby
Once you maxed out ur car on like difficulty 70 / 110 you will almost lap the second team
RB just has everyone on 15 Difficulty
So basically this is like 2013 again
🤷♂️
What are the results?
Any wagers or takers/bets on how many laps it takes for Max to get to P1?
I’ll say lap 6
Lap 3 for DRS unless rain
And then wave bye to the rest of the field
Perez for once not super low and even that is so much slower than Max 
Thanks G 
¡Feliz cumpleaños Fernando!
Wishing a happy birthday to @alo_oficial, from all of us at AMF1 Team. 💚

Shootout delayed.
Update: Shootout will start at <t:1690626900:t>.
Classic Spa
Sargeant in Q2 🦅 🇺🇸
Sadly not for the main race.
Certified stroll moment
Certified Aston moment
It's the team that gave him slicks and asked him to do a time on them
he was doing fine untill the tires just went
FUCK.
Brundle: "[[Stroll]] has a chance here"
immediately crashes
#F1 #BelgianGP

caster curse 😄
On the speakers' corner too
My honest reaction as an Alonso fan
AAAAAARGHH
GODDAMN IT STROLL
YOU HAD ONE JOB
It's not really Stroll's fault, it's the Aston strategists'
literally was cruising though the corner and the tires died
But why mediums and not softs
they always do
🚨 Because the FIA never officially declared the session wet, Aston couldn't put Stroll on softs.
They had to follow the usual SQ rules and put him on mediums.
131
I don't understand how that works
Not like they burned through softs in free practice
Me neither.
so the track is wet, everyone on inters and session is not wet?
You can't put a car on softs if the session wasn't declared wet?
Sq was m-m-s
If the session is declared wet you have free tyre choice
Weirdly no
Nice.
0.011
What were they thinking lmao
Once again Perez is being Perez
Piastri made a good career choice
Lewis and George in the fanzone today 🥰💜 https://t.co/UXUdGzZE3E
Bit sad that he found it necessary to say this
Is this real ? 
Does the idiot not realise how many people were saying the same thing about his team and teammate the previous few years ?
Here's the clip recorded by a fan at the fanzone
The sprint race is getting canceled, calling it

Just a another Spa 2021 :kekw:
so will this thing be starting or not, so confused
No one knows
Pit time.
Oof, unsafe release from Ferrari.

And Verstappen leads.
Oop. Perez losing it.
Verstappen wins the sprint! Piastri 2nd & Gasly 3rd.
Decent enough try from piastri. There was simply no holding max back
Full results please 
Ric was in 8th for a while, but pace wasnt good enough to keep em behind
In that shitbox it is only understandable.
I'm glad that he's at least doing better than what Nyck did.
Nice
Lmao
hamilton and understeering into a redbull, name a more iconic duo.
It’s always a touch on the rear right aswell
Albon getting flashbacks rn
yeah both albon and max with the 'nam flashbacks
Boohoo
⚠️ | Otmar Szafnauer says he deserved more time:
"Changes take time. I signed some good people from other teams, but they won't join until 2024 or 2025.
"I always say - You can't get nine women pregnant and hope to have a baby in a month."
3207
151
🗿
What a weird thing to say.
That is weird. I agree with him though
I know the race hasn’t started yet. But Max in P1 yet?

I give it lap 5-6 by the time he is
DRS lap 3
Max P1 shortly after
Can’t believe I’m saying this. But kind of hoping to see Lewis win today. It ain’t gonna happen
But wouldn’t mind seeing that regardless
rip Piastri already.
Should've backed out that T1 :)
Sorry Oscar. You ain’t gonna block out Max
That’s what he does
Hit the wall trying to do so
Sainz kind of fucked him too
What it has to do with Max????
Piastri started p5. So they were all going for that inside corner. We all know Max typical dive bombs those
Piastri fucked.
So I can only assume Sainz and Pisastri wanted to close that off
Everything being your hate, ok.
😜
Continue to hate ig.
🤡
Oh wow, Albon 8th?!
Checo sayid he has damage but pulling away from Charles
Williams built different.
Just needs Sargeant to have that freedom powers. 🦅
I’d agree with that. Logan has already made up 5 places
Rip McLaren
Albon's doing great rn
Checo: “I’ve got damage”
sets fastest lap and pulls 2.4 second gap on Leclerc
Max with DRS from a quarter mile back. Passes Lewis like he’s standing still
FIA: “The car is fine”
Ferrari really need to retire poor Carlos here, wasting the mileage on parts at this point.
Sargeant's 10th
Ayoooo Logan about to get in points?!
Logan from P17 to 10
Williams built different today
Albon is having fun, did a double pass 
They are
Williams is quick, but people were pitting around Sargeant lol. Now it's finally his turn.
If I was Ferrari, I’d put now and undercut Max
Pit
Max will likely burn out the rest of his softs trying to catch Checo
You need to have superior pace to undercut, can't say that abou Ferrari 
Most of field already pitted, perhaps the deg is just that bad.
Must be
Did the FIA talk about not renewing Spa? Contract was in limbo for a long time I know that
It’s well known that it is at risk especially once a deal with Kylami is struck.
But nothing official
I like Spa. Personally rather see Monaco go
It’s not fun to watch
Just like it’s probably not enjoyable to race for the drivers
Alonso actually sitting in a pretty good spot with Hards if they hold up
His tires are yellow.
Oh wait he’s got mediums
Graphics error.
Race grid has it listed incorrectly
Wow actually let Perez pit first
Traded with having a shit stop by RB's standard.
Yea
No point in keeping Max out, everyone else is so behind RB.
bruh, what is this radio drama
i mean im loving it, but really having all the shit out in the open? 😄
Aston whyyyyy 

If it rains heavy now we’re fucked
Monaco repeat?

Shit stop 
I’m starting to understand how it feels to be a Ferrari fan
Just give the World Driver Championship to Max now., and let everyone else actually race.
This shit is so boring
Ok.
Max will likely win out every race from here on out anyway
ok.
Capt. Obvious.
Captain dickhead

go touch grass

Ah yes. The reply of the standard teenager
This is getting outta hand.
Tsunoda actually doing great for once.
Deko you trying to jinx him? 😄
Albon back to 8th!
Nah, I'm actually interested in seeing Tauri being decent again :D
Looks like rain will just be baiting us for today.
Oh, Sainz is finally out.
Some half the race too late 
Is this guy trying to get fired 💀
Idk man
that sas 😄
Bros been sassy all weekend
Bro is being flamed
Can't fight anyone on track = fight your own pit wall 
GP best race engineer. 
Was Ocon in the gravel or?
dw people be watching
Sounded like it on his audio 🗿
Still 10th... Doesn't look like it. 🗿
Hm
Great pass from Ocon.
clean

Hamilton goes for FL 🗿
on the Mediums huh
Max Verstappen wins the Belgian GP!
22.4s 


Race results:
perez may have gotten P2 but holy fuck he was slow
max put like 30 seconds on him, pitted then put 20 seconds back onto him in like 12 laps
chooo mimimimi
The austrian anthem is actually just the 2nd verse of the dutch anthem
Perez got out with 2s to him and bro caught up the same lap for the last chicane 🗿
Drivers' & Constructors' championship standings:
Lewis closing in to Fernando, George equalised Charles, Lando got a nice number of points... What else?
Redbull over double the points of merc
Looks like the rest of this season is just a fight to who can get P2
Anyway, since we have entered the summer break, join the thread below:
#1135217125817069660

🎥| Oh no…🫣
