Rough


Pls don't do another Spa 2021.
just let them fucking race
Imagine, if Belgium 2021 didn't happen and VER took pole
Then LEC crashes Perez style
all this technology and we are afraid of rain
Oh wait
Pretty sure they were already talking about a 30 minute delay
Such would only award half points, not full
WATER IS FALLING FROM THE SKY! DANGER! DANGER! DANGER! STOP EVERYTHING YOU'RE DOING AND SEEK COVER
If the race starts...
T1 bowling, LEC out, PER damage, VER wins.
tbf,,, visibility is awful now
EZ Championship 2022
Well, there is a lot of water on the track. It's not necessarily the rain itself, it's that the drainage is shit
The water isn't going anywhere
Lots of somewhat deep puddles
safety car swimming in some parts
DOTD
Angry Aston Martin fans are typing...
Well, zero is plural...
using a broom to push water?
Formation lap in another hour smh
ehhhhhhhh
actually works, i've done it
ye
surprisingly effective to clear puddles
doesn’t look like there is too much water tho
The drainage is shit.
Hence the small amounts of rain will remain and not run down anywhere.
an hour delay is a lot
leaving no time for redflags in a track that never been finished without a safety car
what can go wrong????
Max already locked up
is it still raining?
idk it seems to me that it is raining
and high humidity i assume so air is already saturated
typical of the area
it is still raining
What’s the point of having
if you’re never going to use it
yes
Also supposedly the 3 hour time limit starts when the race itself starts
Not on the scheduled time
Wait, they changing rules on the fly?
what is this?
aha
I’m just as confused as you are
yeah i confirm... that is ice
I wonder how Ferrari will ruin Charles this time
2017
how many safety cars we will see today?
2/3 imo
Max cut the corner.
Aye, not bad.
Yeah max bogged down at the start
God that hurts to look at
Anti stalled
Red Bull WDC battle 
Meatball flag for magnussen
again?
Again
It's always K-Mag 
contact between zhou and latifi looks like
Because latifi has a puncture
Safety car pls!!!

Not again Zhou
Latifi puncture, Zhou... whatever it is this time
Latifi what the fuck
It was contact
LMAO GOAT
You must always leave the space
Fucking hell I'm glad this idiot is gone next year

latifit ffs
Full SC? For this?
BERNARD DORIFTO?
What's VSC for again?
Good question
But matt
There's rain
Extra precautions
Can they just sack latifi now instead of waiting for the end of the season
Please
Russell and Bottas again 
https://www.straitstimes.com/sport/formula-one/formula-one-rain-delays-start-of-singapore-grand-prix
The race was scheduled to start at 8pm.
Read more at straitstimes.com.
pointless of sharing that, we are reacting the race live
It'll get imemdiatelly buried by race reactions
has it started alr
damn Ruseell
Yea it started
He really wants another Imola
well have to study for exams
Mans wants a rematch
so ig can only watch highlights

Will see if the intermidrys will come to play
That’s one of the overtakes of all time
That was a very cheeky overtake
Shows the inevitability of VER

He used the NFS EMP.
FOR FUCKKK SAKE ALPINE
Man that's rough
:(
mediums
Alright alright
???
but honestly kinda boring race
Very bland so far
Master🅱️lan
fr
We’ll see when it gets up to temp
sheesh
why not hard?
too cold probably
he is all over the place
ahh true
Russell really just experimenting at this point
Just needed AET (Alonso Express Train) engine to die to unlock the pace
Albon crashes
Kept going but lost front wing
Albono?
more dnfs than overtakes
Ferrari strategy incoming
Oh boy
when I saw that mechanic reaching for the tyre I was like

They put albon into mediums as well
He has nothing to lose
i like how he shifted fromt 2nd to 3rd after crashing lol
ocoff
Alpine 🤡
What if RB went over budget because they were developing an EMP device
What is happening
EMP'd, that is what it is happening
2022 F1 reliability is amazing my dudes
FERRARI for new inter.. nvm
F1 Hot Pursuit
Lmao
oil
xd
Well that was very dangerous
holly shit
Very hard braking from Norris tho
he was carrying a lot of speed
Oh definitely
LEWIS
The fuck? lmao
nvm it’s damaged
Looks intact?
#blessed
front wing is a bit low
If that was magnussen he would’ve been given the meatball already
Yep Russell is picking up the pace now
RB should get max in ASAP
Ferrari is in
LEC
it's convenient
yep Russell is setting purples
5.3???
one of the slicks?
COME ON
yeah
yup, Medium
can this race end already
That's number 6!
The longest race day, with an actual race (?)
Mclaren gaining a lot with this
wtf is going on
6 cars out 
Danny ric on softs?
38 minute time limit
they’ll need to repair the barrier
so longer SC
Why not red flag 
are they going to reduce the race time?
They have to reduce the race time

didn't this race start like 2 and a half hours ago
they delayed it an hour
ah makes sense
It started 1 1/2 hours ago.
was out when it started so just got back
Ricciardo and Vettel 
might as well just skip quali all together 
We’re green again
not me
Alright 34 minutes left
Smh
HAM vs VER again
ferrari p2 and p3
Cmon
Jesus that lockup was godly
looks very nice
he’s pitting
Max out?
out of points probably
ah
destroyed his race with that move
Safety car infringement from Perez noted
New tyre puncture?
ngl Max really going full
this weekend
Max showing he can race for Ferrari
as it stands
VERSTAPPEN WILL NOT BE CHAMION This race
chamion?
💅

Ngl he deserves a win
right when we lose hope
Leclerc WDC????!?!?!

We lose even more hope we didn’t know we had
Norris might even get p3
so lec is slower with drs? what is going on
How tf is Checo still holding on
Right as you say that Matt
That's some breathing space for perez
Russell when the guy in front of him defends his position

oh dear
I swear Perez just becomes a completely different driver
that Ferrari is falling apart
perez is actually hauling ass
Stellar drive
Can Perez make 5s?
he is close to that
Lewis slid off
Lewis doing dumb shit
Could've easily kept Max behind if he just rode the DRS train without making any move on Vettel
Vettel vs Verstappen tho
these drivers are too tired now
p2-7 looks pretty 
This was a platinum opportunity to get points from max and they forgot there’s another redbull car
smh
Perez was flying those last 15 minutes
Dotd well deserved
highly unlikely to get 10 sec
I'll never forget this man's state of sheer ecstasy
Yep, starting 8th and ending 7th
Qualifications were a bad sign
is the race still going on
no
checo
i expected leclerc
to be fair, that stat doesn't tell the full story
It doesnt, but the race was chaotic
doesn't change much with what I said imho
he was last place (or nearly so) at a certain point
for most other drivers on the grid (anyone who isn't a rb, ferrari, or MAYBE merc)
they would have ended up well further down the tree
why was it only 59 laps
the fact that he finished the race is impressive
thought they had to do 61 laps?
time limit
also i saw on youtube some drivers crashed
what
the race was originally pushed one hour
due to the rain train service here extended half an hour
so that leave only 2 hours for the total race time
And then it kept raining SC and VSC
hmmm
most pointless grid penalty ever
Also norris is doing a great job against the alpines, only 25 points behind their constructors total
Funny how Danny’s best result of the season came from one of his worst grid slots
who was dotd
Checo
deserved
Danny ric deserved it more Imo
no
checo had a really good drive - especially at the end with lec on his ass with DRS
ric had a good race, yes, but it wasn’t as impressive as checo imho
legendary goatifi not being effected by grid penalty
consistency is key
Yeah, Checo just held onto P1 when everyone thought Charles would go through not long after DRS was enabled
no
he only got p5 because of his teams strategy
he still managed to finish 26 seconds behind his teammate in the same car
he’s on par with Latifi
Can we not have overly hostile rhetoric against a specific driver and minimizing his achievements?
he said danny ric deserved dotd more than checo, i just showed him why he’s wrong
If you think Ricciardo did as well as someone who crashed out of the race, you are being a pillock
i’m talking about over the whole season
ricciardo has been shit for 2 seasons
a single win which was handed to him by mclaren and lando doesn’t change that fact
Latifi would probably do better in that mclaren than danny has
if it’s because of the car, then that just shows danny is a one trick pony who can’t adapt to anything. Lando managed to adapt to a shit mclaren this season, danny ric hasn’t adapted and we’re 3/4 of the way through the calendar
ricciardo is an embarrassment to f1. and what pisses me off the most about it is people defend him even when he’s shown he’s not f1 standard anymore on multiple occasions
the same people who jump on stroll, latifi, even ocon
but apparently saying the same about ricciardo is a step too far?
Latifi has a bad race> We rightfully jump on him
Ricciardo has a good race> You wrongfully jump on him
People don’t jump on those people when they have a good race
The issue at stake is you jump on him REGARDLESS of the situation
i never jumped on him, i said why he didn’t deserve dotd
We genuinely appreciated Latifi during British GP and Hungary GP
the mclaren is more than capable of finishing P5
He had a good race
it’s not a “good” race, it’s a standard race
Anyone that doesn't visit this channel often would say you have an anti-Ricciardo agenda
And we don't appreciate that
his race was average and he got saved by a safety car
you’re telling me P5 from 16th was something standard that mclaren could easily do
because of the safety car
He didn’t have to do anything
You make or break the luck
He did
his team made the strategy call and he got lucky with a safety car
you’re so deluded
this is exactly my point
And he made it
if latifi got a lucky safety car and got p5, you’d all be saying it was luck
don't just throw away luck as something disposable
And he still had to drive to that point, and make the decision to overcut
you’re telling me Verstappen did absolutely nothing in Hungary
And only won because of the strategy
30 minutes on the soft tyre
And you still come with the same excuses regardless of him DNFing or finishing inP5
No we aren't
We are disproving it
You just need to realize that your hate for ricciardo and ricciardo specifically got a bit excessive that’s all
Because he’s constantly shit?
I don’t hype up ricciardo when he’s doing shit either
The biggest point of contention we are having here is your unhinged hate for Ricciardo and your uncontrollable drive of spreading it like toxic waste
Every time you come here is to complain about Ricciardo
DECISION: One reprimand, one five-second time penalty for Perez. Wow. Keeps the win! #F1 #SingaporeGP
2670
353
Stewards say Perez dropped too far back THREE times:
- First time, Lap 10 on inters, T13-14 he is investigated and reprimanded
- Second time, Lap 36 on slicks, T9-10 he was warned by Race Director at the time
- Third time, Lap 36 again, T13-14, 5s penalty (after warning)
#F1
Hmmmm
I'll be honest
that's... inconsistent

Very fun way of describing his loss
Last race everyone here were talking about Verstappen doing a clean sweep
How times have changed
who won
I thought this was Facebook comment section for a bit
damn is even anybody unhappy checo won? incredible drive gg
even win checo gets is worth
1
🎣

It's an even worse attempt when it literally says "last year". They were trying too hard
That schnoz is schnozin tho
Bruh at the end
Idk but ESPN F1 posted it on Twitter
I think it's just being toxic
he predicted future
When did this channel get added?! Hell yeah
Could max be world champion at Japan gp ?
Well yeah as long as he's the usual Max instead of Singapore Max...
I think he had pole if he didn't have to bail for fuel
He'd have pole if he didn't abandon the first attempt
And he'd finish a lot higher if he didn't make a bunch of mistakes
True. I love how he got a little squirrely coming out of the one corner and still had time on Lewis. Something else
Just needs win and fastest lap regardless of where Perez and leclerc finish
Singapore max is just max with anger issues
aka 2016-2018 max
On Sunday one team principal said they didn't know what the process would be for the FIA announcing the financial regulations compliance today. I get the feeling they still don't know... #F1
Back to circus
UPDATE: The FIA won’t conclude analysis of financial submissions today. New date given is Monday 10 October #F1
Mark the dates on the calendar
Aka, let's not penalize RB until after Max wins wdc

So, 2022 DSQ?
I feel like RB screwed up, but I sincerly hope they didn't spend way too much.
That’s if Max doesn’t retire or below 6th place with his Red Bull teammate Checo Perez, Charles Leclerc and Russell being on the podium with or without them having na the fastest lap
I lowkey hope to see white cars again.
The Turkey 2021 livery that was meant for Japan was sexy.
It’s also in F1 2021 mainly in my team career mode
And the Honda logo is returning for the of this season starting form this GP
Perez is going to be the ambassador for the Honda racing school based in Suzuka
Source: the f1 app
But then if the FIA disqualifies red bull for last year, Verstappen would still be 1 time world champion If he wins this weekend and Hamilton will get his 8th world championship it’s just if though
Yeah that's a pretty big if. Guess we'll just have to sit back and enjoy 🍿
So if Hamilton won last year and when Alain Prost won the world championships when he nearly won, Hamilton would be the second with 8 championships while Prost would of have 9 championships
Yea, and I get it why the cap is there
I haven't followed F1 but I wanna ask about Ferrari. Do people still see Ferrari as a joke in F1?
Wait
I can't share links?
Anyways, the short answer is yes
The long answer is: they can't escape with the current mindset from being the clown in the circus
They are not clowns, they are the whole circus.
The pitwall, that is, the drivers are 👌
Just spent three hours creating a masterplan for attending sunday
Fuck this country and how hard it is to plan around tiny ass fucking cities and busy fucking trains
Just wanted to vent

Zero god damned parking and terrible train access from small countryside suburbs
Damn

Knowing it’s the big of a pain. in the absolute ass I’m literally planning for next suzuka monday the day after
I miss going to the Austin F1 GP
“yeah just park in the big fucking desert for 50$ and enjoy a shuttle”
Haha
Why?
Spa 2021: waited 4 hours for the “race” that was only 2 laps behind the safety car
Monaco 2022: 40 minute red flag because of rain, track was dry afterwards
Singapore 2022: 30 minute delay in FP3, 90 minute delay on race day
not to mention DRS being disabled
if only pirelli developed tires specifically for use in wet conditions, they’d probably give it a simple name, like wet tires or something
Of note that we could end up having a decent race if it's dry>wet
At this in this scenario you could use extremes
Since there would be a racing line and FIA would be easier to manage than starting from wet and making that racing line
Obviously yea since there would be crashes without it being disabled in the races I mean a lot
But then you can’t predict what’s the weather going to happen and then the rain was so severe that they had to red flag it so A) to clear up the track for racing and B) it would be a lot of crashes
Still no drs through 130r :(
Keep in mind these cars nowadays are built to only be able to overtake with DRS
The thing is, we had Germany 2019 and it went well in regards to wet racing. What FIA is tending to do from Belgium 2021 was starting to being really dodgy. While on one hand it makes sense on being flexible on the start procedures, they are overdoing it at this point.
Well, that is to be expected, if the delta between cars is diminishing, the advantage needed will be harder to find. I don't see a world for now where DRS won't be necessary.
Beige
F1 when there's a single drop of rain: race delayed
V8SC:

oop
ran hella wide
braked way too late
went skittering into the wall
Redbull-Ampol T8 🥺
lmao
Btw
My guy Latifi took the wrong corner and tried to blame it on the car feeling strange
I heard, Mick had another crash during FP... 
Please... don't do this.
I'm not sure what to think of this, either.
I just saw that wtf

how'd he take the escape road
Absolute knob
Bro took the south track layout
One of the most classic Formula 1 tracks and he doesn't know the way? 
ik this is his first time here but come on
It was in fucking FP2
my guy drove around the track for 2 hours but still got lost
What's next on his agenda? Join Indy and take the wrong turn at Indy 500?
That was very embarrassing from Latifi
Do I wake up at 6am to watch
It's the norm for me in the US. I'm excited for qualifying at 1am and the race at midnight
Lamborghini Corvette S90 right there
This legit?
Ye
Does anyone have experience with the f1 trading cards and tbeir value?
gasly partnering with whom?
Alpine
Alpine
Not officially announced by them yet, but likely soon
French team and drivers is pretty cool
who is his teammate?
Ocon is currently on the team and will be next year
"Cool" is not how I'd describe Alpine or the rumored lineup
No
Gasly and ocon kinda have a… bad relationship to say the least
Alpine has been seriously fighting the 2022 World Clowns Championship with Ferrari, while Gasly and Ocon are known to have a massive falling out in the past.
Yeah im aware of it all. Just my opinion
Gosh rivalry right there. Once used to be best friends Oconbut now not anymore I think according to him on Beyond the Grid
Yea it has been explained on the podcast that I just mentioned above
I feel like this is not going to end well
with the beef going supposedly between those two
The fact that the top brass are approving of this shows a lack of awareness or deliberate ignorance to personal relationships and how quickly those can cascade
There’s definitely going to be fireworks
Match made in heaven
Let's not forget this is Ocon. He already zealously defends against teammates he doesn't hate to the detriment of the entire team.
According to someone on twitter
Especially with Alonso by his side before next year and with is advise
I'm looking to watching them battle it out
https://twitter.com/F1/status/1578535811905368065
And there we go
to the surprise of no one
That I didn't expect
Oh right quali is on rn
I’m watching on cable
Yeah mine is fine but I have a bit of a delay
like 15 20 seconds or so
To the surprise of absolutely nobody
Latifi’s 5 place grid penalty didn’t change a thing!
should have made him start in F2
Latifi could start at degner half a lap ahead and he’d still finish last 
Give him 1.5 laps

WTF was Mick doing 
but remember max is investigated for his incident with Norris
Seb's radio and final qualy got me a lil choked up 🥲
😭
DECISION: Verstappen gets a reprimand for the incident with Norris. Keeps pole position #F1 #JapaneseGP
Formula 1 social media managers are being cruel to Yuki lmao
what the actual fuck
Yeah no fuck off
Dude race is sooooo against my NYC time... Idk how I will be able to watch it.
@lament plaza cheeseburgerpizza coming back
im so glad you told me in f1 channel
Race at 10 am here but I wake up at 2pm 
So you can race to dominos
But okay yeah didnt notice

Yup big F
So what's left now? Mick's really uncertain Haas seat and the mysterious Latifi replacement?
yeah pretty much
yes i am :)
it’s a cutthroat ruthless sport. he went to renault and mclaren for the money, knew he wasn’t going to be competing for titles or even race wins anymore. No sympathy deserved
if he wanted to stay on the grid that badly he would’ve taken a pay cut and went to williams or haas but he won’t because he just wants money
20 seats at the top level in the entire world. There’s no room for mistakes and poor performances. Gasly, Albon, Kvyat, Mazepin, all faced the same fate. If you’re not good enough/good enough anymore, you’ll get dropped. he’s no exception
same thing will happen to Nyck next season if he doesn’t hit the ground running. He’s under a lot of pressure. Age isn’t on his side, this could be his only chance at F1, he has to perform. If he doesn’t, AT will take Lawson or Herta if they can sort out his superlicense
Sport is becoming harder and harder to enjoy every race anyway.
Watching Ricciardo in McLaren has been almost pure pain anyway
Misery-misery-misery-monza-misery-misery-misery…
I really hope they don’t delay the start tomorrow
Seeing the forecast…
Rain is supposedly starting at 1PM local time and is going to extend into Monday…
for reference race is at 2pm local time
Rain is forecasted to be very severe
If only they had a tire compound specifically designed for wet circumstances
Well
It’s a lose lose situation tbh
You either design tires that dry the track very quickly at the cost of visibility or you get better visibility but more standing water
Make tires that spray water completely sideways and not upwards at all
Very easy to do
Just design them better
So easy
just remove tires altogether. in fact remove the cars and just make them sprint 53 laps
still motorsport, and sanctioned by the FIA
god this is too early
Wow, what is this magic? Starting on time in the rain!
Smh
lmao really bad start from Max and he still got the lead back in less than 2 turns
excuse me
Safety car action already
Suzuka magic
On another note
Max stuck it to the outside very nicely
No way Albon had a mechanical issue
Poor guy
Hmm, so it quickly turned from inter to full wet conditions
anyone got a picture of whoever had the billboard on the front
I forgot to take a pic
Gasly?
Yea it was Gasly
i can just rewind in a bit
I know it's him but didn't take pics
If some how Ferrari can repair Sainz's car , can he return to the race ?
Did he return to the pits on his own power unaided?
@fervent dew
only allowed to if you can make it to the pits by yourself
So that's a no for Sainz and albon
@fervent dew Feeling your money's worth yet? 
Fuck I missed the start
Oh I saw the replay of the tractor on track
Have they not fucking learned

"hey about the tractor on track"
Yeah, how about we fucking not desecrate someone's grave and not talk about it if it involves an F1 driver?
sky sports commentators being wow
Fck the race
You only missed a single racing lap
“I could have killed myself, why is there a tractor out there?!” Pierre Gasly is rightly furious #F1 #JapaneseGP
Well, Max and Charles had an interesting two-turn battle
This is peak incompetency
How about they fucking use the wet tyres for once
That’s what it’s made for ffs
Onboard with Felipe Massa as he has an epic battle in the wet with Robert Kubica

Damn
Yup, Belgium 2021
Meh i'm going back to watching v8sc
Goat has spoken
Zhou: "Even the tractor on track, you can't see it like five metres away."
Latifi: "Even with the fucking crane on track there... it's not great in these conditions. Very silly, actually."
250
i’ve been sleeping ever since we red flagged
i got like and hour and 15
lmao
I woke up the race was red flagged
^
I mean it’s not like they didn’t drive in exactly these conditions in FP1
saw the lap
red flagged
they said at least 10 mins
i just went to sleep
woke up it’s still red flagged lmfao
Ferrari could’ve brought in sainz’s car and fixed it before they go racing again
This or Belgium 2021?
Looking at onboards, the tractor was on track already when Verstappen went past… #JapaneseGP #F1
2581
498
Cmon
Really
Yup.
so
What’s you people’s favorite rainy race? Seeing those will not happen at all anymore
Germany 2019
Mines either Fuji 2007 or hockenheim 19
That was a nice one
That race had a total of 78 pit stops or something along those lines
And Hulk throwing away
And seemingly everyone spun except Sebastian vettel
How can we make it clear that we never want to see a crane on track?
We lost Jules because of that mistake.
What happened today is totally unacceptable!!!!!
I hope this is the last time ever I see a crane on track!
Norris also posted on Twitter
Unfortunately the FIA will never learn until another fatality happens
And FIA only learns half lessons
Well, that's a giant puddle
Race won't restart imho
We're back in Suzuka! Catch up with the best bits from our opening session of the weekend, with heavy rain creating some tricky driving conditions.

Look at this
Conditions same as today
Mario Isola putting the race to the grave
Intermediate >too much standing water
Wet > it'll destroy visibility
Everyone time to be mad at FIA
It's even worse
Ted Kravitz: Language isn't an issue. There is someone speaking Japanese to the trackside staff.
So we’ll only get 45 minutes of racing at maximum
More like 35min
Because they need some laps behind SC to evaluate situation/clear water
Fair

Rolling start
Already?
Oh, it's just the procedure
Bottas radio is the most indicative
That’s the issue with wet tyres unfortunately
You sacrifice visibility for less standing water
SC will enter pits - rolling start
with 40 minutes remaining
no full points 😭
Side by side
green green green
One of them will s🅱️in
Norris and Bottas pitting for inters too
VER and LEC pit for inters
That was a great double stack by RBR
yup
Goddamn it's chaos in the pits
leclerc has traffic now, zhou between him and Verstappen
ya
I hope that max win the race today
Seb vettel P6 
Trying to be a chicane
Waiting for a safety car
Charles wants to box
Gets told he’ll be behind Alonso if he pits
He has no pace whatsoever

Nah
Unless both leclerc and Perez do a funny
Hmm?
Oh is it about wanting to pit

“Make sure we undercut him”
Lmao ocon is pulling from lewis into 130R despite lewis using overtake mode
Steven Corner is defending for all he's worth and Hamilton once again has to wait for another opportunity
