Sbinalla
Walking on the track without permission

If you need to go to bed, just go
Sprint race will be tmrw?
It’s 5:14 pm🤣

Yes
i rather watch a sprint than a fp
It’s quali not practice
Sbinotto
Orange army is everywhere
Nope
Austria, spa, Zandvoort, Hungary
Because max is amazing
Even silverstone? They booed at max
its uk
Well makes sense, think they will boo this time at Hamilton too at Zandvoort
And Ricciardo going : Look at all the supporter McLaren has this weekend, orange everywhere 😂😂😂
Zandvoort Isntnat calendar?
Was last year in Zandvoort and to be fair, most of the people clapped for him
I must say I love they put jarno opmeer as someone you can drive as in f1 22
hamilton is like senna there
Nah
as the fans react
Piere GASLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
watch mick do a baku overtake for the lap
90000 people 😳
Nico HUEUEUEUUEUEUELKENBUEUEUEUERG
Sprint tomorrow will be interesting 😈
Max max max
Because he carried their flag, lol
I am DRIVING F1 CAR ON PS5
Be careful
Except It was red bull 2011 version
PIIEEEEEEERRRREEEE GASSSSSSLYYYYYYYYY
so what
RB11
if max carries the uk flag
I heard the guy changed to Brazilian passport too or nationality 😂
will he be loved
Super max max super super max max max super max max
Lando Norris 🤓
Guys imagine Latifi crashes
Oh wait he isn’t even racing right now😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣
Imagine Magnussen crashes
(Imagine he actually does now I said that)
At least he didnt crash during q3
Imagine mick schumacher drives into ferrari garage
Not Haas man
Mate I literally cursed Russel
Haasterplan ⚗️
I said to myself imagine Russel crashes and he crashes seconds later
Guanyooooooo Zhou
At the beginning of this season I thought Russell would clap all of them
Car is shitbox
Oh damn it's so close
Sorry for saying thay
I’ll clap you 👏👏👏
That
He is so good
Can you please imagine Stroll wins the race Sunday , and Vettel is 2nd ?
Thx I'll pass
Goatifi needs to get pole
At austria
Hahahahahah
YES MAX WELL DONE
It’s amazing to see how Verstappen turned those yellows into purple
He’s the best driver ever
World champion
That was close ngl
Guys If I fart into a f1 car what will happen 🤣
Mate I was so scared as soon as I heard LECLERC TAKES POLE AND LECLERC TAKES POLE
It will explode
Then MAX SNATCHES POLE POSITION
Imagine performing under this pressure , so many fans for max and still getting pole that’s some solid concentration from the world championship leader
But In paralel universe
Lance $troll will get seated to that
Fard
Daddys cash
Also and also
If A haas gets a front row I am buying a logitech
My dad promised
He said them "goof"
Tomorrow will be interesting!
Rumours says he will join Audi in the future. Also Lawrence stroll has been trying to find buyers for the AM team.
Lots of moments at the start to overtake
Hope it doesn’t happen
Yeah
😂
But just like spa, you can get pole but if number one and two have a solid start
Two will overtake one
isnt audi supposed to join in 2026
or smth
Yes
I'm a Latino person, not sure how Europeans behave, MV is my favorite driver but I think he should interact a little bit more with that huge public supporting him.
As a European I can tell you this is very normal in all sports.
Even in football you can see tons of toxic fans 😂
He’s Dutch, that’s the way we interact with people. We don’t ‘over react’
Alonso is still in the sport what makes you think a German team won’t sign him.
Very pessimistic no?
And original
Nice to hear that. I was afraid public was expecting more words from Verstappen towards them.
if he's not going to competitive he'll leave
Dutch people are pretty straight forward
theres rumours that he will retire this year
I have notice this when it comes to all Dutch people I have talk toz
Anyway, why to many deleted laps today, where they too picky?
his contract expires this year
Haha yeah, when I traveled around the world people are surprised about how easy we share our opinion
It’s because of the rules, also it’s very normal in Red Bull ring.
most of the circuits from eu
are max fans
even france
you'll see a lot of orang
orange
Here in EU it’s super easy to travel to country to country.
But to me appears that is was kind difficulty to keep the car inside the lines. They should do small adjusts to provide best race line.
This got changed back in 2020 I think because cars got damaged due to the kerbs.
From the Netherlands?
😂😂😂
Not here, lots of those people switched to F1 with max
I see people watching max now who didn’t wanted to watch f1 before his time
max had a lot of fans even in 2018
Which makes sense, het got succes
when ric was there
Mercs really improved, if they did not crash I would not be surprised of a LH pole.
I know, but now it’s crazy
And I like it, Zandvoort last year was madness
believe or not max is the new face of f1
I was there
Ppl, including me, where bored of Merc dominance.
it had to come
Also, max being a rebel helps and not trying to act as a brave one
max did not do anything wrong last year at corpse
So sad EA didn't put him on cover of F1 2022 game, just on Champions Edition, He should be on both.
Well last year was crazy,
merc always got away with fia
FIA would have too much difficulty of making all rules black and white with no margin to discussion.
This is not like soccer where you can stop, analyse and resume.
We have to live and accept errors will be made.
Masi only did that in Abu Dhabi cause he didn’t want the race & the championship to end under a safety car, can’t blame him for giving the fans the most dramatic ending to a season ever
Well he made weird decisions whole season
IMHO max had so many things against him, I found it (as a max fan) deserved Masi made a (again, also here a weird one) decision in max his favour
But, I can understand that Hamilton fans think otherwise
Masi was never capable for the job though. He made weird decisions even in 2019.
He was short story a very rushed in when Charlie was gone
But we had some great radio messages
I liked the emails best 🙂
do you guys have any updates on where Sergio will start from the grid tomorrow ?
P10 I've heard
Not sure how they missed the track limits as it seemed pretty obvious having just caught up on quali
i had heard that but I also heard that he got his final Q2 lap deleted also
& before that last lap he was P13 I think
Red Bull's Sergio Perez originally qualified fourth but was later excluded from the third qualifying session in its entirety for exceeding track limits at the end of Q2 - an offence not noticed by race stewards at the time. The Mexican will start the race in 10th place.
Watching his lap I was like "that's definitely over track limits" it seemed well obvious
Yeah not sure how that works out. Surely he should start where his quickest lap put him
Exactly
He should be starting P13 surely?
If the lap that put him through to Q3 was deleted how can he start P10
that’s why we need Masi back 😩
He was P13 before that lap, surely he should start P13
wait I didn't watch Q3. What are you guys really talking about?
I understand its about track limits?
CONFIRMED: Perez to start P13 on the grid tomorrow as that's what his best legal qualifying lap time gives him #F1 #AustrianGP
2253
258
Eh?
Perez's lap that got him into Q3 was deleted after Q3. His quickest lap in Q2 was deleted. He was P13 before the lap so surely if its deleted he should start from P13?
That puts Russel on p4 would be fun to watch
Look P13
Well he starts P13 so 🙂
Other places are saying P10 though 🤔
Chris is a guy within F1. He is also super reliable also his tweet is certified Confirmed 🙂
Fair enough, good to hear 👍🏻
Chris was right 🙂
BBC are rubbish lol
I did say earlier this day to a guy that BBC is bad so 😂
Missed that. Had a hell of a day at work so only catching up now
BBC is easiest but not necessarily reliable lol
Yeah
Shame Lewis and George both crashed as looked like Mercs could have been quite competitive
I saw the clip and I was like LOL
Wait so you can crash an start 10, but once you pass a line you shouldn’t pass your 13th?
I think once you passed Q2 they cannot DQ you from that
Not I think, I mean I want it like that
Lets see how SP, GR and LH will do on Sprint race.
It costed vettels win...
Canada
That's just daft. Lewis and George got there with their times, Checo only got through because he went out of track limits.
What's the point of having track limits if you can't have times deleted for going over them?
What’s the point if you don’t police it on time?
Some had their lap times deleted seconds after. Not like this
Plus they also screwed Gasly
They didn’t delete Checo lap right away because it was super late in Q2. This meant they didn’t have time to investigate it properly since they had to investigate others that came thru Q3. I think that was a smart decision. No hesitation for FIA here. It could have gone wrong here and people would been mad.
People ask FIA to be consistent well they are now? Do people want FIA to go back to the mess we had in 2021 😂
#F1: Hamilton needs a new chassis for #AustrianGP. The side impact crash structure was destroyed yesterday after hitting tire barriers in Turn 7. #AMuS
353
I’m all for consistency but Gasly would have made at least an attempt for a lap
That idk. I didn’t watch Q3 and end of Q2 so.
Let’s see if someone can beat max
Because, once you go through to Q3 why looking into things for Q2?
They should have track sensors everywhere
It’s just weird, also gasly could have set a time and now he couldn’t
FIA needs to do this better, rules are rules I know but how they now handled it is not understandable
I totally agree that it should have been done straight away, I mean it wasn't exactly hard to tell either. But you can't say that just because it wasn't done straight away doesn't mean it shouldn't be done at all
Confirmed: both Mercedes cars get a new gearbox out of precaution
#F1 #Formula1 #AustrianGP #F1Sprint
Laps mostly get deleted right after the lap so FIA screwed up and weren't very consistent in that area at least.
Yeah
He wore tyres, gearbox, engine etc in vain tho cuz of stewards mistake 😅 Just a messy situation and I really dislike these tracks where they go over the top so it becomes a deleted time fest.
Red Bull ring is very different though
Yeah but were more tracks like this last season where they decide the inner line is the limit, and it shows sth is dysfunctional when so many times get deleted.
Or the drivers need to learn how to drive properly 😛
Yeah but you can't just not follow the rules because of a mistake. Oh wait, actually, maybe we've seen that before 🤔🤪
I say the tracks and rules are improper on those certain tracks 😇
Just stick a wall there and it would sort all the problems out
Well, they already have gravel there so that should be enough imo 😅
Surely with all the money/tech in F1 it can't be that hard to fit sensors to each car and the white line so that it does it automatically
To me these deleted lap times sessions are just below red flag fests in how boring it becomes to watch
I think it adds another sense of intrigue. They've gone quickest but will the lap stand or not? 😛
Eeww
But this is a problem almost every time in Red Bull ring.
It is a problem, I agree. I've seen people moaning that Max's lap stood but Albon's and some others were deleted when they look exactly the same
Due to the rules. Becomes a bit like in T1 Zandvoort in F1 Clash 😅 Only 1 track and 1 corner that's severly glitched since the ones in charge aren't doing their job properly
Idk if FIA has more angles but in the one we get to see it's often hard to judge 100%.
Yep, apart from the Checo one where it was obvious straight away 🤦🏼♂️
Yeah haha. Everyone saw it and mentioned it right away.
A sensor would be great - run off track your lap is immediately deleted. Win.
they just need to put grass and gravel back on tracks and be done with this full concrete 💩 tracks.... will be anothe poop fest in france as well
so drivers are actualy force to learn how to stay on track and don't risk that much
Sensor slowing them down to pit speed will be good 😂
They've changed the chassis and the new one meets the requirements basically
Hey guys imagine if Russel crashes again😳😳
His mechanics will kill him 😂
Why we imagining people crashing? Surely none of us want to see that
@jaunty cave with your super power, Stop focusing on Russell crashing his car, start focusing on Vettel and Stroll moving 🆙 the ladder 😅
LOL alpine
El pain
rip alonso
RIP
I haven't seen this type of mistake in years
WTH 🤦🏼♂️ poor Alonso
Whoops, haven't even started 😂
@jaunty cave Did you dare think about Alonso ???
Well the return of el pain
Didn’t finish working on car. Electrical issue sounds like
Albon is in top 10, woo!
Yesss
lets goooo
Yay vettel not last but it cost Alonso
This race ain't even going to start at this rate 😂
Uh oh
Zhou now going again, what's going on lol
Nooo zhou
Rip zhou
Who next
lmao we cant even start
Ye
Wow ! @jaunty cave … I don’t know what your doing but continue on, Aston Martin cars are indeed moving 🆙 the ladder 😂😂😂
O R A N G E
wow omg max leading 😄
I am wearing my orange shirt for McLaren lol
Fans going crazy lol
Alonso retired
By about 3 secs!
ok now lets gooo
Ferrari going to take each other out 😬
Dang
Checo got a great start
the gap is insane
Gasly again man
Now Mercedes is driving in the mid field they are always involved with accidents
Last race Russel, now Hamilton
The 2 haas are 6 and 7
Seriously? You're trying to blame George and Lewis for those accidents?
I’m joking ser
Guys how are haas so high…
Cool. You never know on here lol
Wait they’re going to get a lot of points so fair play if they do well
Haha although I don’t like Mercedes
activate DRS
Is 5 a lot of points lol?
Wow k-mag
Man think about it, it’s haas
So any points are a lot for them
They will be incredibly happy for any points
True. Definitely doing better this year though. Hope they both stay there
Hm has something against Red Bull drivers 😉
Wow
wow sainz
Yeah it’s a sprint so not as many points will be given but they will still get points for being top 10
top 8*
But perez jeeez
Lovely those Ferraris
Ferrari about to take each other out
Top 8 get points in the sprint
Perez is coming up
Ye he's P8
Ohhh I’m sorry everyone I didn’t know it wasn’t the same as the gp
So many orange in Austria
I said to my friends, we’re going to next year with all the lads
Red bull vs Haas part 2
Ferrari need to sort themselves out and focus on catching Max
where are the overtakes lol.
I am expecting wayyyy more.
Oh jeez
Perez is great at gaining places
Perez has 6 places
thats on start '
He’s gained 6 places
sainz puncture?
I think
Omg they almost crashed so many times this race
Well this is what we want to see
gooo bottas
Oof
albon 5s rip
Be interesting to see Lewis against Checo. Show us how quick Merc are compared to RB
they changed to flexy floors
OH
but their wings aint optimal. They didn't have enough
parts.
WOW
Only to change back in 2 weeks lol?
Well checo first need to capture the haas
That was epic
ye.
So good for red bull that they signed perez for next year to
Perez channeling Lewis at Brazil last year
BRILLIANT PEREZ
So close but so well
Vettel 😭
What
Worst thing about F1 today is penalties like albons one, clueless idiots applying rules they don't understand.
Noooo
What happened
Perez 6th yesss
Vettel driving faster in reverse 😄
To be fair, Albon did force Lando off track
Albon cannot drive
albon gonna get 10s now haha
I’ve only just seen vettel
Checo could get 4th
No Landon drove off the track
He didn't have much choice. It was that or get hit lol
Nope
GET ALBON OUT
Perez
Albon cannot race for sh1t
Only Perez gaining alot
Lewis must be so annoyed being stuck behind the Haas lol
albon did the hamilton
No, he could have seen the space is already gone and never any chance. Like I said clueless
He’s only good when he’s not in a car!!!
Fax
Hamilton is on that train again.
Will take him forever to go thru.
Not quite. The gap was there to go for.
10 to go
Let him literally sprint the fricking track, get him some running shoes and shorts and shirt and get him running, that’s his penalty
albon is dumb
Leclerc is closing a bit
Yes
the guy risked another 5 sec penalty
but Verstappen could also manage it now, not sure what he does
He should be given the black flag or whatever it is when they’re disqualified
it wasnt a big crash
albon is fine
It's black flag for dsq
Lol normally albon isn’t a reckless driver, everybody can have a day off
he thought vettel was hamilton
Yeah not sure why people want Albon DSQ, he's just made a mistake or two
The gap is there because the cars are not yet through the corner. It's the same argument hill used when he hit Schumacher all those years ago. I saw a gap, there is always a gap before the cars arrive at the corner
You are really discussing black flag for Albon? 😂 have you seen Stroll and Latifi?
No but it’s a sh1t driver
Latifi is a goat
albon made a simple mistake.
Why people so mad lol.
Twice
Exactly, happens to everyone
so who cares?
Vettel and Norris
He didn’t take them out
He took vettel out
Vettel is still racing 😉
Riccardo next target to Albon
Not really. There was more space for Vettel
Vettel was not fully in front.
So Albon had the rights to defend that position.
Same with Norris.
ALso both still racing.
watch albon get strolled
Fine
You know its not that interesting when we've watched the same battle for 10laps and nothings changed lol
Loving how Perez just owned Mick and Mag and Ham can’t do the same
well that RB is obvious alot faster in straights.
Albon will probably be 17th from the penalty by the end
Checo had the benefit of the Haas battling each other. Since then they've just been in a DRS train
It’s amazing in any track
“We told you Ham will progress in the race” well yep, from 10 to 9 😂🤣
Mick defending like Alonso
Actually 11th to 9th, give him some credit 🤪
Massive progress when it’s his old teammate🤣🤣🤣
Huh? He started 10?
alonso retired
Yeah but dropped back to 11th
and checo penalty
He started 9th since Alonso didn't start
CMON MICK
that mercedes is just not fast enough in straights.
Lulu
mick is so near though
Michael will be so happy to see his son holding back the 7 time world champ
Yea
“The car in front has gone out at least 4 times”
RB need to loan Merc some straight line speed lol
Toto said George had to take a slower rear wing as well, so he will be even slower these races
Sigh, typical Lulu stuff
They can afford to as well
Bruh
HOW ISNT MERCEDES SO MUCH FASTER THAN HAAS
thats because they didn't have any spare parts.
So they are not running on optimal setups.
Micks having a stormer!
YESSS MICK
damn mick
Mick channelling his inner Vettel
Tell Kmag to slow down for DRS lol
Guenther is happy
Yeah in George's case. Hamilton had to take an old front wing as well?
ofc gunther is happy 😄
yes
Tsunoda penalty
Lewis had to have a whole new chassis so it's not necessarily set up properly apparently
They weren't allowed to work on the cars overnight because the curfew is different due to quali yesterday
Good fight from mick,
Final lap
Micks done well last couple of races. Battled well against Max and Lewis
I think we all know how tomorrow's race is going to go now lol
Magnussen the b***
No one can match RB straightline speed.
Ferrari is little bit off. But can be there.
Mercedes is fast on this track, perez couldn’t catch Russel
both mercedes car is not optimal too
Yup, been clear since Miami that RB is way too quick in a straight line
They lose like little bit on corners but gain massivly on straights.
Both haas could be in points just because kmag so arrogant this bi***
Russell is running on high downforce wing.
They're quicker without DRS than the rest are with it so yeah, gain hugely lol

I do believe mercedes "flxy floor" made them quicker.
I think if merc didn't crash.
They might had good enough car.
They were quick though especially lewis before crash.
alpine
have u not seen the baku gp
alonso purple s3
lmao when I saw Lec trying to OT max in Miami with DRS I was like LOOOOL.
Boy is still faster without DRS.
Ferrari is very close now, not that far behind
If albon get a pen for Lando but not punting vettel off they are out doing themselves
inconsistent
Vettel had more room on track, Lando had none
big difference
Tomorrow race is pretty much gonna be the same.
Not much changed today.
Expect on the back.
Let’s see if Ferrari can make some proper strategy calls 🤣
You guy can't be serious, albon was committed to his braking again Lando, Lando only maintained an outside position by running an angle that was taking off track in the first place. Albon he vettel by understeereing into him, he lost control of his car by over committing to the space he had. Night and day, jeez
lmao Vettel had like all the space he needed
They'll probably put wet tyres on or something by mistake
also he was only half car infront so
he got 0 rights to get that position.
Checo will get George, Lewis will gain 1 or 2 places. Mclaren will move up a couple of places. That will be about it I think
I was surprised they let their drivers fight.
Rather than going after Verstappen.
IF this keeps on thru the season they will both DNF.
We all want to see drivers fight but in that situation catch up to Max then sort it out
Tell them not to fight so they can focus on catching, then allow them to go at it afterwards
George car is alot more Optimal though.
With other types of wing he might be even quicker.
So I don't think its so easy for checo but we see.
merc is on performance mode hehe.
I reckon it'll be the straight line that gets him past. RB is just so quick
yeah
Sebastian Vettel has been summoned to the stewards regarding his "behaviour at the drivers' meeting".
That's a new one...
#F1 #AustrianGP
1059
what does that even mean
Did he want to slap Albon? 😂
I can’t select f2 race in F1 tv
You guys having the same?
An it’s on twitter it’s not only me
I don't understand fully
but they are already done
it should pop up on main feed
if its not there then restart
I can select the race.
You can? F2 now?
yes
I got F1 TV on my TV, IPhone and PC.
I have checked I can watch the Sprint race on all of them
restart the app
wait did you buy normal or pro
Vettel left before the meeting was done 😱
Sebastian vettel gets a €25,000 fine for his behavior during the drivers meeting. 😬 #F1 #Formula1 #AustrianGP #Vettel #F1Sprint
Wow
Vettel apologised btw so the fine is withdrawn
Why did he leave the meeting ?
Idk
trying to fine him €25,000 for leaving the drivers meeting is insanely soft
25k to him is nothing...
but is something
For regular people yeah
there’s a reason why he apologized
Media
If i was him
I would end the contract with am
McLaren chose Ric over him already 😂
at the end of 2020
McLaren was in between choosing Ric or Seb when sainz left
Ric did get a podium
Not sure Seb in mclaren is a good idea
In a aston martin is way worse
He’s an outstanding guy but I believe it’s time to retire
i still believe if you give him a midfield car he can get podiums
but the thing is that I doubt a decent team will take him
No way he’ll stay till 26
Yh
He just doesn’t seem as motivated as for example Alonso
If it was different - sure. But I just don’t see him want to stay
Always 🙂 I’m sure he can stay in Aston for a long time
DECISION: All drivers cleared over formation lap messages. Stewards deem the messages were permitted #F1 #AustrianGP
2811
148
This imo is stupid.
Numours drivers were summon to stewards because they talked to each other
What messages lol! Didn’t they get the messages because of the issues Zhou had?
Message as drivers were interacting with other drivers on formation lap
🤷🏻♂️
So we are going to follow the rules to the letter even in such cases 😂🤷🏻♂️
I’m sure they discussed super secret stuff
About ferraris master plan
According to reports multiple drivers are not happy with FiA
hence why Vettel left the meeting before. Tons of tension going on.
Mike said vettel is in talks about a contract renew...
The only way they can make a good car is by copying
2020 vibes
And they still managed to lose against mclaren
With the 3rd best car
They should get a better driver than stroll
If i was stroll i would've rejected myself from the team
Who like? Not an easy attraction at the minute
he don't have a choice
and he wont get that seat
Checo renewd with promising lineup in F2 and reserve drivers
Trouble is, there wouldn't be a team if it wasn't for daddy Stroll
OOoooo paddock rumors according to Ted Kravitz that McLaren could be looking to make a move on Oscar Piastri to replace Ricciardo
thats a fire move
but risky
Yup, apparently it was expected that he would sign with Williams (not sure who would go but would expect Latifi) but he didn't and with Ricciardo not performing McLaren need some fresh talent so someone like Oscar Piastri with Norris as a more experienced lead teammate sounds great if you ask me.
In current situation I don’t think it’s good to scratch off everything and start over again.
Eh? or was that a reply to what @opaque crest said?
To you
How is binning off ricciardo scratching everything off. He was good in his time but hes over the hill in terms of the drivers these days and people like him, vettel, etc that have been around for ages and now not up to much need to move on and let the younger blood move on up as there is a wealth of talent in F2 waiting for a chance and old stalwarts hanging around in F1 wont do anything to help the sport progress on
His experience is important. A team won’t be evolving if you have pretty much 2 fresh off drivers. (Early stages in their career). Also Daniel Ric is not being listened or prioritise within the team. Like just look how disgusting the radio messages are.
Look at Vettel, he is often dragging that Aston Martin. If they focused on building the team around vettel instead of Stroll trying to please his son. They could have done better.
Binotto confirms there will not be any team orders ❌
No need for team orders with the strategists they have
So the F2 race had some start on wets and some on slicks, we hoping for some rain this afternoon too?
Rain could be fun if the race goes like dry-rain-dry or sth. Strictly wet would be boring.
Yeah we need the transition from one to the other. If it just stays as one it'll be dull
Going back to the technical reg changes which were meant for France and are now going to be Spain - I've just seen this.
But Red Bull and Ferrari objected to the ruling, saying it was not fair, and after discussions at a meeting of the F1 Commission on Friday, it was agreed to delay it by a further two races to give teams more time to comply.
If there was nothing wrong with your floor why would you object to the ruling? I know Ferrari have come out and said they'll have to change theirs
Is it within the rules though?
If it is - of course you would object
Merc, again for the n-th time, are trying to prevent others that came up with better solutions of using them
Why do you want Ferrari to do bad 😦
You know this had nothing to do with Merc right? The FIA found it themselves
I don't want Ferrari to do bad. I want an interesting race with a battle at the front.
After complaints from Merc about how unsafe and dangerous porpoising is 🤷🏻♂️
It's the old question of "does it fit with how the rules are intended?" The FIA need to make it clear so we don't get stuff like this mid-season
I think That’s exactly why they are objecting. Probably a gray area they found and used. Normally you let it go until next year when you clarify and close that loophole so another one can be used
From their car. They weren't blaming any other teams for doing anything wrong at that point. The FIA looked into it and found some teams had interpreted the rules how they weren't intended. Also Merc weren't the only ones who said about porpoising. All teams have had a driver moan about it at some point
Oh please, we remember the Oscar winning performance:) And they magically had a lot less issues when FIA started measuring it 😂
Last year they closed it mid-season with flexi wings. I'd say its random based on what the FIA decide. Sometimes fix it mid-season, sometimes delay until the next
If you think driving 60 odd laps with that wouldn't be painful then your body must be built of steel lol.
Different tracks, different surfaces plus upgrades can all change that
I’m not even defending RB only there, Ferrari also use that. And probably others also 🙂
Oh yeah, if those two are doing it them I'm sure others are too
Also just seen a clip from the sprint yesterday of Albon getting past Lewis. Pretty bad for the Mercs that both Williams and Haas are quicker in a straight line 😂
They are cheating also 😂
Joking aside let’s have a good race today, possibly better than Silverstone
What engine do Williams use?
Merc
Hopefully, that's all I want. A good race with battling through the field.
There were talks about a swap to Alpine (soon) including piastri getting a seat there
Oh was going to say Merc have made their engine go backwards whilst RB and Ferrari have built super engines
Piastri deserves a seat over Stroll, Latifi possibly Zhou
Haas, Alfa, Ferrari are on the Ferrari, Alpine is obvious, RB and AT also, rest are Mercs
No wonder Mclaren and Aston are doing so bad as well then 😂
Latifi is probably out. I don’t see the same for Stroll there since he even has his own team lol
Yeah daddy won't stop him playing with his toys lol
Hahaha
gPblog article
“Ham: “I didn’t learn anything from the sprint race, apart from being slower than the Haas”
See how long it takes him to get past kmag today. I imagine it'll be quicker as he won't have DRS from Checo, George or Ocon
Rb and Ferrari got illegal floor when it’s being used because it flex more than it should (2mm). It was a loophole within the rules. Because what RB and Ferrari did was to cut the plank In pieces making the car go 2-3 tenths faster. It says nothing about this on the rules. Only that it must flex 2mm max. FIA use holes on the plank to measure this. But when the car is running they found out it flexes way more than that 2mm. So it’s Legal within the rules because it’s a loophole. But while using it, it becomes illegal.
Binotto confirmed 3 days ago they will need to changed their floor in Spa.
Here are the difference.
Mercedes pr report changed to flexy floor in Friday. Hence why they were so fast and Hamilton actually getting purples on quali before both crash.
Fernando suffered an electrical issue on his A522 yesterday, the root cause of which is still being investigated. We suspect a possible failure of the standard electronic control unit, energy storage control unit or any of the electrical wiring on the chassis or power unit.
1309
Still being investigated doesn't hold much hope for today then
What is being investigated
they just say “is being investigated” so people actually think they look into the situation but we all know that’s not true 😂
Alonso's electrical issue
ah that.LOL
That's the FIA, not teams looking into issues
i wonder if there'll be another big contact at turn 1
Lewis has a problem with his car
they had to fix his brakes
what is it?
Minor brake issue
ah ok
Ferrari going to take each other our
lol
Let’s go race 🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎
who was that guy that went infront of russell? he went outside the track
Perez!
It was sainz that went outside
What happpened to Perez
Haven't we seen that happen to Perez here before?
yes we have
Yea
Perezzzz
oh no
lmao its always a merc who hits a bull
Perez got a taste of hard racing?
it's that corner again
What lap are you guys in? So Ik how late I am, thank you
At least the Ferraris aren't racing each other this time lol
2
Max already out of DRS
Charles needs to stay there bro
Not sure that's accurate tbh.
If so Haas is even quicker lol
Not 20kmh quicker than the ferrari though lol
Lewis lost a place to Mick lol
Ham Albon, wait who hit Perez??
russell
5 sec penalty to russell at least right?
Lewis going to be stuck in the DRS train again
its not noted yet
If they copy Lewis v Albon yeah
Perez was ahead I think
nop
Russell was ahead all the way. Perez tried to OT on the corner.
Perez was ahead on the outside of the corner hence how it was Russell front wheel hitting Perez rear
yes
sainz is over 2 secs behind leclerc
but its not fully.
So Perez is not fully entitled to that corner.
I know. How is he so slow lol
relax he lapped perez
Checo going to give Max DRS to help him out lol
That ferrari is fast
They are fast on the straights
russell 5s
Still not fast enough on the straights though lol
Well done max on defending
it can be. The car infront is struggling.
CMON CHARLESSSS
Sainz gaining quickly as well
LEC off line every lap
Wonder if RUS even gets points today. 5s + real slow rear wing.
Cmon maxxxxx
Based on current gaps and pace it's unlikely
If max holds 1st then his defensive stats are flying up
Nice move
How did Leclerc take the lead
Front wing change on Russell
I know 98% of that crowd is pissed now 😉
CHARLESSSS
Penalty for Russell, wrong but at least consistently wrong.
Charles doing what Max does to others lol
LETS GOO
Diving down inside and forcing them to get out of the way
that’s the only way Charles has a chance at the championship
there must be something wrong with that Red bull no?
Max seems to be struggling alot.
the tires
Tyre wear worse than Ferrari?
no way
Sainz needs to catchup now. Ferrari 1-2 today?
No one’s out yet wowowowow
Harsh on Russell. Still don't get how sainz got away with lap 1
Be interesting to see if Sainz can catch up
they changed to hards now wow
Two stop race for sure
That seems early for a pit stop
yeah
he will caught up in the DRS train
Look at P20 and p19 😄
Ferrari strategy team thinking about how to mess up leclerc’s lead lol
Lol good battle
Don’t even say that 😭💔
Has to be with being that early
Perez is way behind th o
What happened to russell???
just wait as soon as that ferrari 18s ahead it will fail
Didn’t see that
Penalty, front wing change etc
Penalty and wing change
Perez and russel contact. He got 5s penalty
Ham passed both haas now
No way these Hards are lasting 50 odd laps
must be 2 stop
Thanks mates
It was too early for a pit stop for max
Just don’t want to be disappointed again lol
nooo way that tyre is going to hold?`
It degarde too fast ofr 2stop
Ham vs ver 🤣
Yup
is perez about to be lapped twice?
Lewis has drs
Fighting for the podium lol
Wonder if Perez has damage.
Perez warning for black and white wow
Nah he'd have gone back past Max when he pitted
RB going to be too quick through straights
Nice lil battle 😁
Lec almost 1 free pit
True, he’s catching up already
Not for too much longer
Merc on 1?
So is Lewis
Go ham defend for ferrari lol
Lewis is Russell isn’t
Loooks like it
Yeaaah figured
Yep
Sup
Clueless stewards
They need to pit Charles now
I feel like 1 stop is faster then 2??
Just tuned in
Max will get ahead of him tho
omg Ferrari please don’t screw this up
It's very close
WHY PEREZ LAP DOWN
There's like hardly anything in it
He needs to clear the 20s mark he should be good
Oh please when will they pit lec
Charles will catch him
Lol Russell tapped him 1st lap
its still early
Pain
Plan E 😂
Echo
They want a 1 stop race
el plan
They are risking a lot tho
this dude said Plan E
what the
like Ferrari please no
Verstappen must pit again.
No way that hards can hold.
When do you think is the best pit window? Serious q, thanks for answering
Who has that many plans lol?
Wonder if it’s +5 laps from target?
So thing now is 1 stop may be faster then 2 stop but it is heavily reliant to Verstappen falling of the curve though
in 2-3laps
Max tires will be dead by the time Charles pits
Perez has a damaged car, ofc track limits are an issue, may aswell retire now.
Max might go med hard soft
Max will pit again
Yes
They probably have a "plan /"
There’s a lot of racing going on
Yep
Thanks mate
A safety car is likely
Plan Sainz being strategist team leader
Verstappen to push all the way with that hards?
Thats not possible?
oh god
It’s Ferraris strat to lose another race
Again Max 2 stop
Ferrari please pit the guy omg
This is where Lewis wins Lmao
Ferrari should at least pit one of their drivers
Is still early they’re doing 1 stop
so is Red Bull now I guess
3 wide
Ferrari going to lap 50 on mediums and going to pit for softs lol
Pack racing
Mag double overtake nice move
I don’t think it’s gonna hold up with ferrari’s fresh tires after pit
They have their own race 😂
Midfield’s fun
Epic KMag
This is what we want at the front lol
the track limits are insane
YE
He can’t- it’s nearly Monaco amount of laps and he pitted lap 12
CMON MICK
Every car track limits every lap 😂
verstappen 2nd warning wow
Wow mag
perez retired
What lap are you in??? I think I’m late
Perez retire?
I saw lec had second warning after like 6 laps
I'm a bit behind on my feed,
He seemed super slow
Max has two warnings now
Leclerc pitting
It's fun trying guess what's happened looking on here 😆
Stroll P5
Ham stilll on mediums 27 laps hmm
Sainz in
