Not sure they have much time to talk, you can usually get only a photo/autograph

[floral tree]

no

never

[floral tree]

It's the same as every year

I don't think it's new, at least not to me

[tender viper]

I know I want see end of results look like so yeah

[floral tree]

what

[flat egret]

End of Suzuka FP1. McLaren quietly moved up

[pulsar furnace]

Repeat of Melbourne FP1 again?

[deft bay]

Can someone show how the multiview looks on f1 premium vs regular onboard cams on f1 pro

[heady sonnet]

Yeah, and then Q3 comes and they are a second ahead again 😄

[heady sonnet]

lol at Mercedes’ explanation about their wing closing

“Miscalculation” 😆😆😆😆 sure sure , definitely

[grand ledge]

Hello everyone I am new to this so I hope everyone is enjoying the season so far
I am the mercs r smashing it and I really want to see them do well because I want to b able to say to my mates that it was the car and the team that won Lewis his 6 out of 7 titles
Don't get me wrong Lewis is a great driver but imagine the likes of max or lando or George in the cars that Lewis drove
Any of them would have won the title for years aswel

[floral tree]

fact.

The bro literally arrived on the server and said what he had to say, dropping a fact

[wraith loom]

nooo bearman

omg verstappeb

[crude kiln]

Worst Q in a long time? Think only 2 drivers improved on their last run, and those weren't even fighting for pole. Lame

[heady sonnet]

Kimi rocking

[crude kiln]

in a free world?

[hushed pawn]

Max.......

[ruby anvil]

I swear max might comeback but be one race too late again like last season

Who honestly knows Ferrari is cooking Mercedes are cooking Oscar wants to come plate a race without ending his car race after race

Just so random this season

Also Cadillac want to get a good engine rather than using a gp3 engine

🥀

[heady sonnet]

The ferrari isn't a bad engine

[heady sonnet]

Why do you think Cadillac has a gp3 engine though? That's not Aston

[wanton stirrup]

who do u guys think will win the race

[clever talon]

He ain't coming back bro 🤣

[summer ether]

Naaah McLaren comeback

As a Ferrari fan, I'm concerned

[ruby anvil]

Holy I just got spammed

I think kimi or George might win leclerc and Hamilton may have a chance

[compact glade]

Farrari

[mental pike]

Who? Lewis or Charles

[modest lantern]

i have a feeling it's Lewis

[mental pike]

Ye same

[wanton stirrup]

little tough

[mental pike]

True

[somber steeple]

Who's excited for the race today?

[tiny apex]

Hi

[summer ether]

I'm Excited mate

Obviously...
I wanna see Ferrari P 1 and P2........

[wraith meadow]

Who is watching f1 at the moment

[oblique cove]

Just saying hi just saying the only formula one I have is on Tubi and I might watch it after the discord

💩

Tried qualifying for the Japanese Grand Prix but didn't qualify I am going to race on a duel.

The Japan Grand Prix is a little tough because of its tight turns but it's easy on tires and the battery system

[timid grotto]

Hamilton back to back podiums im praying

Piastri ahead

[pulsar furnace]

Russel catching up

Verstappen up to 9

Russel in P2, overtaking Charles Leclerc

Guys, are we still delusional that Ferrari has a chance? McLaren is keeping up very well with Ferrari

Holy, final race going on and this chat is dead-

[delicate ermine]

Its maybe too early for some

[midnight pike]

People might be just watching it and not using the phone, you know focusing on the race

[pulsar furnace]

Longest race where no one has retired yet

[timid grotto]

Antonelli up to 4th

[pulsar furnace]

Russell breathing down Piastri's neck

More steering problems for Verstappen

Kimi pressuring Charles

Kimi P3 now

Nvm, Charles regained P3

Gasly P7 about 7.2 secs behind Hamilton in P6

Russell P1 because Piastri pitted

Merc P1 and P2

[timid grotto]

LEWIS 3RD

[pulsar furnace]

He will lose it when he pits

[timid grotto]

Russell about to pit

[pulsar furnace]

Same with Russell and Antonelli

[crude kiln]

Merry Christmas, Kimi

[pulsar furnace]

Piastri should become leader if they pit soon and he makes up the difference fast enough

[timid grotto]

Bearman out

[pulsar furnace]

Rip

About time someone retired in this prix

Kimi pitting

[timid grotto]

Lewis too

[delicate ermine]

Bearman hurt

[timid grotto]

Bearman doesn't look too good

[pulsar furnace]

Piastri P2 between Merc drivers

[timid grotto]

Jesus that was bad

[pulsar furnace]

Bearman looks rough

[timid grotto]

Couldn't stop himself

[crude kiln]

This some live race blog or sth?😅

[pulsar furnace]

Colapinto almost lost it too

[pulsar furnace]

Could be for those who want it to be

[wraith meadow]

SAFETY CAR

But what colapinto was doing

[crude kiln]

He got scare

[pulsar furnace]

Put the safety car as a driving team at this point with how much it's driving in this season

[pulsar furnace]

Bearman lost control of his car when trying to overtake Colapinto so he had to slow down and go on the grass to dodge

Thats not good damage on the car for Bearman, holy

[wanton stirrup]

russell probaly winning it

[wraith meadow]

Yeah I know but colapinto was going too far to the left so i think its his fault

[pulsar furnace]

I was gonna say Antonelli again as the winner

[cosmic marsh]

who is the the top 3 right now?

[fierce vortex]

Bearman lost 🙁

[wraith meadow]

Let piastri win a race

[pulsar furnace]

Antonelli P1, Piastri P2 and Russell P3

Safety car right now so no overtaking

[fierce vortex]

I hope Bearman isn't hyper hurt

[wanton stirrup]

russell need to push

[fierce vortex]

Médical car is just WOW 😍

[pulsar furnace]

Not easy to stay on the inner line at those turns

Bearman made the mistake of trying to overtake at that turn

[cosmic marsh]

can we connect to watching the race?

[pulsar furnace]

What

[pulsar furnace]

Lapped cars allowed to overtake safety car now so safety car is stopping soon

[fierce vortex]

Who do you think will win? 🤔

[timid grotto]

Kimi

[pulsar furnace]

Antonelli or Russel

Piastri will either have to defend strongly or be too aggressive to be P1

[cosmic marsh]

i hope will be one of the mercy driver

[pulsar furnace]

Russell wanting Kimi to let him have P1

[fierce vortex]

I thin'k too but Piastri are strong

[pulsar furnace]

Well first time Piastri is running in the final for a Grand Prix

[wraith meadow]

Finally

[pulsar furnace]

Safety Car ending

[wraith meadow]

Bro will have more lap than the safety car

[pulsar furnace]

Piastri could take this opportunity to overtake Merc with a strong acceleration

[timid grotto]

Hamilton back in 3rd

[pulsar furnace]

Not for long

[lucid quiver]

Hamilton podium???

[pulsar furnace]

Ferrari fans really be delusional 😭

[full yarrow]

Antonelli is in beast mode

[wraith meadow]

I’m gonna make a vote to predict podium

[lucid quiver]

Just cause merc has a rocket doesnt mean the rocket will hold forever

[pulsar furnace]

George gonna throw a tantrum if Antonelli wins

[full yarrow]

Dont thinks so bro.

[lucid quiver]

I do think so

And I’ll go as further as say that lewis overtakes piastri in the next 3 laps

[pulsar furnace]

Ferrari car isn't strong enough to hold Mercedes back for too long. No shade on Hamilton but the car is not peak yet

[full yarrow]

Mercedes is stronger

[lucid quiver]

Russell is struggling

[pulsar furnace]

Russell's starts have always been bad. He has faster pace against Ferrari car

[full yarrow]

Russel is getting closer

[lucid quiver]

Or kimi hamilton piastri

Russell 1 sec nearly

[pulsar furnace]

Red bull fans getting 2025 Ferrari treatment when Max can't even overtake Gasly

Hamilton getting further from Piastri btw

[lucid quiver]

Piastri getting off track limits from what lewis says

[full yarrow]

I think Aston will win 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[cosmic marsh]

lol

[wraith meadow]

Why did I choose to be a redbull fan😭

[full yarrow]

Just embaracing

[pulsar furnace]

Antonelli definitely coming P1

[pulsar furnace]

Real

Stroll pitting

[lucid quiver]

Russell cant go ahead of hamilton

[wraith meadow]

Bro gonna pit for half of the rac

[full yarrow]

Russel only 0.3s behind. He gained 0,5s in last lap.

[lucid quiver]

Lewis overtake the aussie, hes got no race experience

[lucid quiver]

0.7 now

[full yarrow]

he has better pace than ferrari

[lucid quiver]

We’ll see

Lewis has to get through piastri asap

[pulsar furnace]

Bro is not cooking

[full yarrow]

Kimi is flying like crazy

[wraith meadow]

True

[lucid quiver]

here comes the ferrari hater

[pulsar furnace]

Hamilton a whole second behind Piarri

[lucid quiver]

Yeah yeah there’s 19 laps left calm down

[pulsar furnace]

Not a Ferrari hater but an F1 watcher who knows how to recognise the race

[wraith meadow]

Let piastri win

[lucid quiver]

Recognize a car who had no race in 2 races

[wraith meadow]

He as suffer enough

[timid grotto]

Mclaren pit wall has lost power 😂

[lucid quiver]

All this and max cant get through gasly

Max is getting vietnamese flashbacks

[pulsar furnace]

I am not gonna sit here and argue with you. Will let the race dictate which car is good

[lucid quiver]

yes

[wraith meadow]

The question is HOW HE’S MUCH BETTER THAN GASLY

[lucid quiver]

He isnt with this car

[wraith meadow]

And its overweight

[timid grotto]

Russell overtake is coming

[lucid quiver]

Nah

[wraith meadow]

Who is listening to music while playing F1 clash

[lucid quiver]

Ham knows russell’s playbook

[pulsar furnace]

And you know this because you are Hamilton?

[lucid quiver]

Yeah russell is overtaking haah

[timid grotto]

Nevermind Russell down to 4th come onn

[lucid quiver]

Told you :shrug:

[timid grotto]

5th sorry

[wraith meadow]

Russel is not ganna pudium

[lucid quiver]

@pulsar furnace got anything to say?

russell overtaking who?

[pulsar furnace]

Like I said, I will let the race dictate

[lucid quiver]

Hahah

[pulsar furnace]

I am a Red Bull fan so I am not winning in either case

[lucid quiver]

I just want lewis to get past piastri tbh

[wraith meadow]

More like Russel undertaking

[lucid quiver]

I dont want papaya infront of me

[wraith meadow]

Hadjar has just fell out of the point after verstappen overtook him

[pulsar furnace]

I don't even like Russell and don't want him on podium but you being so proud about it makes me want to root for him

[timid grotto]

Lewis losing time on piastri

[pulsar furnace]

Leclerc gaining on Hamilton

[lucid quiver]

Ferrari duels just like shangai

Lulu its hammertime

[timid grotto]

Lewis and Charles nearly touched

[lucid quiver]

Hopefully the 4 laps diff on the tires does a wonder

Charles wyd

[timid grotto]

Bro can they just work together ffs stop dueling

[lucid quiver]

Charles smh dont steal the podium 😭

[pulsar furnace]

I will be happy with Leclerc on podium

[lucid quiver]

I wont

[pulsar furnace]

It's not stealing if he is better than Hamilton

[wraith meadow]

I will whit piastri

[lucid quiver]

He isnt though

[crude kiln]

LEC deserves it. HAM was only there thx to a happy birthday from the SC

[timid grotto]

Russell ahead of Lewis damnit

[lucid quiver]

Thanks charles

thanks a bunch 💪🏻

[pulsar furnace]

Yeah, I was saying @lucid quiver

[lucid quiver]

Took you a while

[pulsar furnace]

This is just Shanghai all over again

But once again, I will let the race decide. Still 10 laps to go

[timid grotto]

Just dont let lando get past you too Lewis 😭

[lucid quiver]

Charles is the one to blame

stupid contact for no reason

[pulsar furnace]

Why is Charles to blame for Lewis falling 2 places behind?

[lucid quiver]

charles hit lewis, watch the lap

[pulsar furnace]

If there was contact, he would have been penalised

It was almost a contact

[lucid quiver]

I want to see if charles does what lewis did

[pulsar furnace]

And again, that wasn't enough for Lewis to fall behind Russell

Hamilton is a full 1.5 seconds behind Russell now

[lucid quiver]

Sadness

Tired locked

[timid grotto]

Is there ever any communication on this team??

[lucid quiver]

🥲 great

[pulsar furnace]

Honestly, I am happy just because you aren't smug anymore. I dont even care how this race ends

[lucid quiver]

You’re the one who keeps going off at ferrari

Reminding you of shangai

[pulsar furnace]

Bro thinks I am going against Ferrari but I am just saying what I am seeing

I was on Ferrari's side for China

[full yarrow]

Ant is crazy.

[lucid quiver]

Ant WDC loading

[timid grotto]

Gonna be the youngest leader of a championship ever

[full yarrow]

His just dominating

[timid grotto]

Russells gonna nick third i think

[lucid quiver]

Bearman is okay god bless

Rip hamilton tires

Or maybe not

[full yarrow]

It was ugly crash yes 🥶

[pulsar furnace]

Please give Max a good car

[pulsar furnace]

50g crash

Antonelli loves driving with no traffic

[full yarrow]

I think he complains to much this season.

Its not like he has Aston engine 😅

[pulsar furnace]

He does and he has a good reason to. The regs are stupid and his team couldn't give him a good car

Also, funny seeing Kimi being told to go easy for the car's sake lmao

[thorny chasm]

Will kimi get his 2nd win today?

[pulsar furnace]

Yes

Gotta hope that Charles doesn't lose to Russell

[timid grotto]

NOOO

[full yarrow]

He just racing his own race.

[thorny chasm]

Charles and Russell having battle rn

[timid grotto]

YESS CHARLES

[crude kiln]

LEC 🔥

[cosmic marsh]

woww

[thorny chasm]

Leclerghhh

[cosmic marsh]

russel beating Charles

[pulsar furnace]

Anyone saying Leclerc is not a good driver needs to stop watching F1

[cosmic marsh]

just how many second and come bcak

[pulsar furnace]

George almost a second behind

[timid grotto]

Hamilton down to 6th again

[pulsar furnace]

2 laps to go. Let's see how they duel

[crude kiln]

Where he belongs

[lucid quiver]

Why does ferrari struggle on hard tires, I don’t understand

[pulsar furnace]

I do feel bad for Hamilton to go from P3 to P6

[lucid quiver]

🥲

[timid grotto]

Hold on charles

[crude kiln]

SC gifted him the P3 anyway. He had no business being there

[pulsar furnace]

Nah. He held on to it with his skills. His car is what let him down

[thorny chasm]

Kimi wonnnn

[pulsar furnace]

Piastri podium finally in his first grand prix race

[wise cave]

damnn

kimi kimi hahahaha

[pulsar furnace]

Bro finally got more laps than safety car and came second in the grand prix

[wise cave]

14 seconds leading man

where yall see live btw

[lucid quiver]

Was fun while it lasted, at least we podium

[pulsar furnace]

Love how Russell thinks he is the big deal in Mercedes team when Kimi is now 2 grand prix winners, 1 more than hum

[timid grotto]

Back to back for kimi

[pulsar furnace]

Leclerc deserved the podium!

[lucid quiver]

ggs

[steep garden]

Verstappen can't even overtake ALPINE🥺

[pulsar furnace]

Red bull fans really getting maximum depression

Russell gonna be hunting Antonelli afterwards

Antonelli got pole position and then won the grand prix too

He da real F1

[heady sonnet]

Worth watching the first 40 laps ?

[crude kiln]

Start was good and was battles whole race pretty much

[heady sonnet]

So yes? How did George bottle it this time ?

[crude kiln]

SC

[heady sonnet]

It’d be funny if Kimi actually gets the championship

[crude kiln]

Haha yeah. But SC screwed RUS & PIA while ANT & HAM lucked out.

[tropic viper]

Ain’t no way antonelli gets we in his second year

https://youtube.com/shorts/BaOm9z5eTjU?si=fkM4V1593sNNB9fe

[pulsar furnace]

It'd set a new record which will be good with how most of the experienced drivers are struggling with their cars. It could honestly save FIA's reputation if people were to redirect their focus on the 19 year old teenager winning than their garbage rules

[pulsar furnace]

Its actually not too bad

Kimi only shot through in the last quarter of the race. This race was actually more enjoyable as everyone was competing in the first 5-6 positions

[crude kiln]

I understand many think it's silly with the slower speeds and batteries deciding overtakes etc, but I think the races def are more entertaining than the previous couple of years at least. And today's race showed those batteries don't mean free overtakes.

Suzuka is normally a snoozefest

[heady sonnet]

Just saw that max waved to Gasly when he passed him 😆😆😆

[wraith loom]

yes

[summer ether]

Wow Kimi currently is the GOAT

[sterile basin]

Good job for Kimi

🤙🏼🇮🇹

[crude kiln]

"KIMIII RAAIKKONNENN"

Kimi Kimi Kimi, the man one dislikes

[flat egret]

Well shii. Next race May 3. Gonna have to fire up the race archives on F1TV and enjoy some V10 action.

[heady sonnet]

You mean Oscar comeback

[summer ether]

Yeah

[delicate dawn]

My app ain’t loading

Hi guys

Can any one suggest me strategy for 9 laps 7laps and more I'm new to this

[sonic tinsel]

In a more appropriate channel, such as https://discord.com/channels/649307821388595211/1146703379901464636

[stable cedar]

Tq so much man I really appreciate that

[glass garnet]

What can FIA do ? What will they do ? As Carlos said in an interview, can you imagine this happening at Baku or Vegas … or wherever there’s concrete walls for that matter

[sonic tinsel]

The FIA is the only body that can change regulations for teams to adopt.

[heady sonnet]

They can change the reliance on battery. Yes it will make the cars slower but ….

[glass garnet]

Safety first no ?

[heady sonnet]

For sure. But f1 with probably 600 hp isn’t going to be super exciting

[low valley]

thanks

[atomic kelp]

[wraith loom]

id rather see drivers safe than racing tbh

[craggy pine]

yeeeeaaah, let’s go Antonelli

[lofty sequoia]

Let’s go Antonelli!

[cinder quiver]

You should see where he is in the driver's championship rn

[cunning violet]

Hes leading right?

He might win the wdc ngl

[wraith loom]

gang theres still 19 races left

[brittle iris]

Top

[low valley]

25 years after his debut and 4 years after his retirement, he wins
Legend

[lament dust]

Is it a legend

[plain forum]

Why is Lando not in the list?

[sonic tinsel]

Because Badminton is clearly the obvious choice

[plain forum]

Nah, I believe this year would be either Kimi, Lando or Leclerc

[heady sonnet]

As much as I like Kimi - discarding George and putting Lando in the mix is rather optimistic

[fallen leaf]

None of the above, Lewis will win!

[heady sonnet]

He first has to actually win a race and beat Charles 😆

I honestly don't care who wins, it better not be the t-posing gecko

You seriously don't know?

When he won in China they were announcing and said Kimi Raikkonen instead of Kimi Antonelli

Ooohhhh😅

Yeah, they would’ve been much better staying with Honda … right ? 🤔

Not according to Aston Martin 🙈

The power train isn’t the issue. Since vcarb are doing perfectly fine I think it’s the package as a whole

ah team principal

then someone else should take over as ceo, Zak’s done his dash. No more embarrassing radio messages thank you

Damn, that’s another huge blow for max

Really don’t think he’s staying in Red Bull anymore. There is no point without GP

On a silly season note - Max in orange would be nice 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

Imagine all the dutchies going wild

[vapid jewel]

what about merc?

[molten yoke]

It's either trying out another team or retirement. I feel like, if he wants to stay away from f1, he might for 2 years. And then return with another team- in time for new regs

[peak plinth]

Ok sry

[heady sonnet]

And it’s confirmed …

[gloomy skiff]

It was already confirmed when Kym broke it but ofc official team discords dont want to believe it until they hear it from the team themselves

[heady sonnet]

Absolutely. But we’ve seen quite a few silly season stories 😆

My guess would be Max announcing either a sabbatical or a move somewhere in the summer, GP going on gardening leave after the season and then joining McLaren for 28

[gloomy skiff]

I think Max would leave F1 entirely, he has said if GP stops, he stops as well. Not to mention Ferrari has Ferrari Engineers, McLaren there is papaya rules and toto... hes obsessed with Max

and he made a promise to dietrich as well, that he would only be in RB for his whole career

[heady sonnet]

Toto, Max, Kimi and Bono would be a tremendous team 😉

Lets see. I can easily see him going away after the season too for a few years

[sterile charm]

Do you guys think that Ferrari is doing a great job?

Or not?

[valid isle]

I was thinking: it’s my impression or Ferrari fans,every year, they have always to complain about every team who is doing great? When I was younger, I was used to love “La rossa” but trough the years I noticed how much “tifosi” are really toxic. 2021-2024 Red Bull. Last year McLaren and now Mercedes…. Because if Ferrari was doing great all over this years for them “it’s all ok”. My reflection and personal experience whit Ferrari fans

[mental nacelle]

yeah

Ferrari just ain’t got a thermal expansive engine like mercedes

Mercedes until Ferrari equip their rotating rear wing

[heady sonnet]

Or until they stop using their “legal” engine 😆

[fallen leaf]

I think that’s until the summer break. I think after summer break, the current Mercedes will be Ferrari

Ferrari just need to stay with them and we will have an interesting championship after summer break

[heady sonnet]

Sure sure 😆 and then they enter Ferrari mode and screw it up

when will the new car update and new regulations be?

[mystic aurora]

They have already started.

[bright night]

Thank You

[heady sonnet]

Isn’t that a different one switching off one component ?

The loophole was the compression ratio wasn’t it ?

[sonic tinsel]

True, there's 2 loopholes. The one I linked is the one just recently banned

[heady sonnet]

Yeah. And if Red Bull with this was qualifying as poorly - imagine without 😆😆😆😆😆

[halcyon raft]

Alonso and Max Verstappen will most likely retire from Aston Martin by 2030.

[spark glacier]

Hey there

[heady ravine]

Hi!

[versed crow]

[wraith loom]

this one is got to do with triggering emergency mode or something

delivering max power at the end of a qualifying lap and shut mgu-h down for 60s after leading to a loss of engine power

hence only used at the end of a qualifying lap

while its intended intention is to shut down the engine just in case of engine emergencied

[heady sonnet]

Triggering it when it’s not needed is definitely not intended though

[wraith loom]

mhm so its now illegal

[fickle eagle]

Non Merc pole. Now watch Lando bottle it lap 1 😆

[fallen leaf]

Lewis still struggling in these regs??

[glass garnet]

Norris and Antonelli on the front row … they are both quite good at bottling race starts so I’m thinking there’ll be some contact in turn one between multiple cars

[heady sonnet]

I’m sure Kimi has been practicing starts for the past 4 weeks 😆

[fallen leaf]

Contact at tomorrow’s start? We’ve still got a wet Sunday to come yet 😅 😂

[wraith loom]

if im not wrong ive read an article where they can only bring engine upgrades to 3 points of the year, which is after miami, summer break and before austin

and thats only if the fia deems it to be legal and that they are behind in engine power

so theoretically merc can never upgrade their engine this season

[nova mason]

MAX 2ND IN FP1 😭✌️

[bitter pivot]

Fun fact no drivers have ever won a Miami Grand Prix from a FRONT ROW START

I was abt to say max 2024 but he started from P9

[tardy veldt]

hi

[vast sand]

and he didn’t win the gp…

[heady sonnet]

Actually it’s after Miami, race 12 and race 18 when it’s determined if they can bring an upgrade. It will take some more time after that

P.s. Ferrari is rumored to be using that small diffuser wing they have to make it look like they need an upgrade.

And Red Bull also is rumored to have the fastest engine

[wraith loom]

oh

[heady sonnet]

Want something even more fun? 😄

[vast sand]

Jesus Christ

Low speed, low efficiency and high drag 🤣

[glass garnet]

Glad I randomly saw its a sprint race soon! Had no idea it was a sprint weekend 🙈

[mystic aurora]

high hope the f1 race does the same

[heady sonnet]

Did you watch it Jeff ?

Alonso and stroll could join them tomorrow to have some racing fun 😆

[glass garnet]

And it’ll be back to back Sprints with Montreal also being a Sprint weekend 🤩😍

[crude kiln]

Nice 😎

[glass garnet]

At this point I’m wondering why they even bother to be there … I would make a bold decision and skip the rest of the year and focus all the budget on 2027 … give Alonso and Lance a little break for 10 months

[mystic aurora]

watching it now

half way thru it

[heady sonnet]

Last laps 🔥

[flat egret]

HUL is out of the Sprint

[glass garnet]

Why ?

[heady sonnet]

Dieselgate penalty 😆

Really ? WOW 😮

[heady sonnet]

I’m joking ofc, but seemed fitting

[glass garnet]

🫠☠️ and here I was ready to believe everything you were saying 😅

[crude kiln]

Race might start earlier tomorrow? Due to heavy rain expected

[fossil bay]

Think that it might be thunderstorms is the main issue

[crude kiln]

I wouldnt mind an earlier start. No way I'm watching a race that starts 10pm

[mystic aurora]

[heady sonnet]

On a new track - really nice race ! And Tsolov doing surprisingly well

[glass garnet]

Enjoy the Sprint everyone

Can't wait to see what happens in Montreal. That was a great race

[oblique goblet]

[south echo]

what is it with nico and his engine problems

gabis engine looks fine ig

[heady sonnet]

Well Audi is a fresh manufacturer, give then a break 😆

[south echo]

oh alex in the pits

kind of stupid to box with like 6 laps remaining unless it’s major damage

[heady sonnet]

Gives them time to practice. And he had half his front wing end plate gone

[south echo]

yeah well atleast the aston’s are on the grid

[flat egret]

HUL’s car basically caught on fire during warmup

[south echo]

ferraris double halo kind of pmo

[austere prairie]

Greets

[glass garnet]

So McLaren definitely look like they are back in the game

[opaque crest]

Do we think the changes they've made have spoiled the racing a bit or just this track? Certainly less eventful than races so far this season

[crude kiln]

RB looking better too.

[opaque crest]

Certainly seems more competitive all round at the top teams now

[crude kiln]

I havent really followed what changes they made and how big effects it was estimated to have. But sure looks more like last season today

[spring glacier]

Leclerc fcked it up

[south echo]

oh wow max caught up massively

[heady sonnet]

Merc doesn’t seem to be working well when not in front.

[spring glacier]

They expect upgrades on canada race

[heady sonnet]

They already had several though

[spring glacier]

Nah only 2

[south echo]

looks like redbull has caught up massively

[heady sonnet]

That’s 2 more than Aston 😆😆😆😆

[spring glacier]

Hahaha thats true

[spring glacier]

Finally we can see max on the front

[heady sonnet]

Ferrari with 11 and …

[spring glacier]

Its pretty boring without max

[opaque crest]

Ferrari brought upgrades? Well they didn't work at all...

[south echo]

ELEVEN is crazy, they had a better performing car before the upgrades

[heady sonnet]

Or it’s the track. Although in f2 it really worked well

[south echo]

the commentators said something about the track yesterday

don’t remember what exactly, grip was mentioned though

[livid acorn]

Aston Martin bro

[heady sonnet]

They are so far ahead ... F3 cars ... that they need no upgrades 😄 With a few they might reach F2 cars 😄

[mystic aurora]

That chart posted earlier and the dream team they've built speaks more than a Honda issue

[heady sonnet]

Definitely. It can't be the engine alone. Newey seems to have done quite a big flop

[glass garnet]

I’m still backing Newey to find a solution here … just probably won’t be this year though

[heady sonnet]

Unlikely for this year 😄

But apparently Alonso is driving until 75 so he has time 😄

[mystic aurora]

I'd love to do the same, but the new tech might be just beyond comprehension

Totally hoping an old dog learns new tricks

[heady sonnet]

BYD wants to enter, they could help with the electric stuff 😄

[mystic aurora]

A future reality

[glass garnet]

Non need to spam like that … c’mon man

Wow. Both Audis catching fire this weekend. 😬

[glass garnet]

Is there still rain in forecast for tomorrow ?

Do we feel Like some teams/drivers might have switched their tuning ?

[fallen leaf]

Yeah 100% rain although there is talks of moving the race forward to prevent the thunder from impacting. I’m hoping it’ll still be raining when they put it on tho, spoiling us from wet race

If they make the race as close as dry tomorrow, f1 must be banned from racing in the rain 😔

[glass garnet]

I’m asking because seeing how Piastri barely made it to Q2 is kind of weird… and he didn’t even improve on his last try

[fallen leaf]

He was on used softs

[glass garnet]

Oh, I didn’t catch that 😅… watching the Q on mute is not ideal but at least my wife let’s me watch it 😂😂😂

[fallen leaf]

I don’t like watching it on mute. Watching it on mute takes away the tensity of it 😄 😂

[south echo]

holy max

Call your top 3

[south echo]

im saying max will get pole (im delusional)

[flat egret]

Going with Sprint podium finishers. NOR, PIA, LEC

ANT says otherwise so far 🔥

[south echo]

i think max will edge it

he showed he can get pole in a bad car

[flat egret]

😬

[south echo]

yeah well only 1 tenth behind not bad

[flat egret]

Max was the only one that improved on that last go

[south echo]

kimi however has been bottling his starts so who knows

[flat egret]

Better hit the simulator tonight and work on that clutch release

[south echo]

oh wait i didnt even see this

max got P5 instead of p6 beacause kimi got a penalty

[wraith loom]

miami gp will start at 1pm local time, so it got mvoed 3 hours earlier

[glass garnet]

Not sure what they saw that the weather network isn’t seeing but to me, 13:00 or 16:00 looks all the same

[slim citrus]

Verstappen got P2 in qualify

[fallen leaf]

I really don’t know why it’s bought forward. The thunder could still come 😂 they should’ve moved it 5-6 hours earlier if they want a complete thunder-free race

[heady sonnet]

Probably lower chance at that time

[livid acorn]

big w

[livid acorn]

confirmed lance winning

[heady sonnet]

are they going to play "Whoever's daddy has more money wins"? 😄

[fallen leaf]

Do you think we’ll still get wet race? Looking at the weather, it looks that way

[heady sonnet]

I hope so 😄 So max has a chance 😄

[crude kiln]

Nice. 7pm for us EUians. Then I can watch the race.

[fallen leaf]

And Lewis 😉

[heady sonnet]

Riight 😄

[fallen leaf]

If we go through the wet race without an SC, something is wrong 😄

[heady sonnet]

F2 race going ahead also. 15:25

[crude kiln]

"DRS to impress" 😆🔥 Genius

[fallen leaf]

Yeah, that’ll give us a guide of whether it is raining over there

[heady sonnet]

Hadjar DSQ from the quali

Some issue with the floor protruding 2mm more than it's supposed to be on both left and right side

[crude kiln]

Rigged. Anything to stop the mighty RB resurrection!

[heady sonnet]

Cursed 2nd RB 😄

[fallen leaf]

I’m really confused as to why they moved the race forwards, there’s thunder 1 hour before the new scheduled race anyway. We could still have delays

That thunder looks to be coming in earlier

[heady sonnet]

I’m sure they have better meteo specialists 😆

[fallen leaf]

I wouldn’t like to read the f1 socials post race if they bring it forward and it still gets delayed if not worse 😆

[heady sonnet]

It does give them more time to play with though so it should be fine

[fallen leaf]

They’re only allowed a 4 hour window tho. Unless they delay the start of course

[heady sonnet]

They certainly can 😄 It'll be a long day 😄

[wraith loom]

still 1am for me 😔

[glass garnet]

Just wondering… wouldn’t that also be the case for Max’s car ?

[heady sonnet]

I don’t know what they did. Likely miscalculated something

[crude kiln]

Ouch. Downside of living in the future

Will probably be boring anyway judging from yesterday's sprint

[glass garnet]

But it’ll be a wet race so might not be boring at all 😉

[crude kiln]

Those are always more boring to me since I don't like chaos. I like battles and overtakes. Rain mostly makes it like Monaco

[glass garnet]

You are right … Brazil 2024 was pretty boring … (probably one of the greatest race in the past 5 years)

Feels like bros didn't understand what I meant 🤭

[heady sonnet]

Some were probably not born then 😆😆😆😆

[vapid jewel]

i wasnt

2004 or 2024?

[heady sonnet]

What the hell was Toto on with saying Russell “doesn’t like smooth surface tracks” - this is f1, not off road 😆😆😆😆😆

[heady sonnet]

I’d be surprised if you weren’t born in 2024. If that’s the case - you are doing pretty well for a 1.5-2 year old 😆

[vapid jewel]

i thought u meant 2004

and i am not 1.5 or 2 year old

[heady sonnet]

He did mean 2004 as

[vapid jewel]

arent the f1 tracks supposed to be smooth?

[heady sonnet]

They are. Normally 😆

[vapid jewel]

if its not then every driver would be crashing left and right

[steep cipher]

Spa Francorchamps probably not, otherwise that would be the only smooth road in Belgium

[vapid jewel]

well spa in the rain is dangerous

[heady sonnet]

It’s definitely not bad. But to excuse a poor(er) performance because it’s smooth is something I have not seen before

[fallen leaf]

Apparently the thunderstorms in Miami have arrived early. The academy race was cancelled due to a storm. Hope this won’t interfere f1

[mystic aurora]

Looking ok for the F2 race and beyond

[fallen leaf]

So it’ll be dry race?

[mystic aurora]

Lets hope

[fallen leaf]

No, I want wet race 😄

[glass garnet]

I probably missed that one because I’m not a fan of football (soccer) even though I know Greece won the Euro that year.

I guess I was just not able to see the link between the 2024 Brazil GP and you stating Greece in 2004.

[crude kiln]

You mentioned 1 race as a reason rain races aren't mostly bad, so I said Greece won the Euros 2004. An exception doesn't make the rule. Rain races are usually boring compared to dry ones, if you like overtakes which I do

[glass garnet]

Because I could also have mentioned Canada 2 years ago, Silverstone last year , Zandvoort 3 years ago (when Gasly got a Podium) and I’m sure there are more … you just seem to forget all of them 😉

Rain 🌧️ = unpredictability which is something F1 lacks a ton of to be honest

[crude kiln]

That would had been better 😆 Mixed conditions create great racing. But sadly it's way more common with fully wet races when it rains, and when it starts raining it can make stuff happen before just settling into a low-overtake train. So we need those unicorns, those Greece 2004 ones for it to be great. That's why I never gel with the "hope it rains" we always see. Since odds are it will just be more boring.

Or a bunch of delays

[glass garnet]

Academy ? Do you mean F1 Academy ?

[fossil bay]

I think just rain races are not the best it's when the condition change that is normally the good races, when the track dry's up or starts raining again

[tiny hedge]

:>

[glass garnet]

Not sure who’s weather forecasters is better but AccuWeather seems to lean towards a rainy start that will dry mid race

[fallen leaf]

Yeah

[glass garnet]

F1 Academy not racing in Miami this year 😂😅

[fallen leaf]

Well some academy was cancelled 😅

[heady sonnet]

The f2 race delivered again

[flat egret]

Hinchcliffe, as a former Indy driver, is very well versed and knowledgeable… compared to Danica 🙉

[mystic aurora]

Oui

[indigo slate]

Will see what happens about 40 min into the race. Could be interesting

[mystic aurora]

Let's go!

[indigo slate]

haven't posted in a bit so don't have the image permissions. But top 10 teams all have 3 used softs, 1 new medium. Looks like Redbull is only top 10 team both drivers having 1 used medium, 1 new hard and 1 used hard. rest of those teams have 2 used mediums and 1 new hard. so if rain does skirt track and eventually dries again, could see interesting tire selections

[mystic aurora]

fixed 🤝

[fossil bay]

Sky saying the aim is 50% race distance until thunderstorms comes in so hopefully they are wrong

[indigo slate]

Yea start time was moved to avoid late thunderstorms. Radar shows small cell skirting the track about 40 min in. Depending on what you rely on like Baku said lol

[mystic aurora]

Drizzle in 35 from that one

[indigo slate]

And another look at radar, as that picture was like 30 min ago, might be clear. Up to the weather gods 😆

[wraith loom]

hadjar on hards hmmm

[flat egret]

Oh snap

[mystic aurora]

wow

[indigo slate]

Leclerc!! Ferrari is awesome at these starts

[flat egret]

VER did a 360 and kept going ? 🙈

[indigo slate]

[keen zodiac]

too much chaos

[wraith loom]

pandemonium

what is genuinely going on

[flat egret]

After all that, no cars took major damage

[opaque crest]

How?! Max hit like 4 cars, Lewis and Franco hit each other, not even wet and it was a chaotic start!

[flat egret]

I stand corrected. Sounds like someone pitted for a new front wing

But considering max did a 360 in front of the entire field, it could’ve been much worse

[wraith loom]

mercedes seem to be running a much lower downforce setup than the rest

[mystic aurora]

At the other end ALO catching BOR 🤭

SC

[flat egret]

Race reset. SC

[mystic aurora]

GAS!

[hybrid junco]

Hadjar and Gasly crashed it’s crazy

[wraith loom]

wheres the sc

[heady sonnet]

Hadjar mildly annoyed lol

[indigo slate]

It’s out, graphic is late

[mystic aurora]

wee bit

[crude kiln]

Sad day for France

[wraith loom]

thats a really weird angle for gasly to crash

[flat egret]

Lack of replays is getting annoying

[wraith loom]

my fantasy is officially cooked :<

[heady sonnet]

It is. Not sure what’s up with replays - we missed Charles vs max and now this
