Poor Sargeant. He gets a lot of shit, but that's gotta suck being sick out there, as hot and humid as it is. Yeah, nothing wrong with retiring if he really can't handle it anymore.

Hamilton: I got taken out by my teammate.

Russell: I got taken out by my teammate.

Inserts spiderman meme

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

Solid stuff by Norris. From 10th to 3rd is quite the feat.

[-] utubas@lemm.ee 16 points 11 months ago

What a shitshow of a circuit. Too bad petrodollars speak higher than anything else

[-] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago

I know. And we have this for 9 more years. Yay.

1.8s pitstop by McLaren, damn

[-] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 11 months ago

Hopefully, Logan is okay.

I can't imagine being sick while driving a bloody f1 car. Sounds horrifying honestly

[-] IamAnonymous@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago

Perez lapped by his teammate.

[-] bwoah@lemmy.world 14 points 11 months ago
[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Maybe he's trying to challenge Ocon's penalty record

[-] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 11 months ago

Hey Lance, please let Fernando through. You're slow as fuck. Thank youu

[-] Thade780@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

I am jealous, can I also get a five seconds penalty?

Sainz might be out with a fuel leak according to Albert Fabrega

[-] FrostyTrichs@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Ferrari should just put him in the pit wall to call strategy for Charles. Maybe the strategists would learn something.

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Definitely out, they're saying now.

Edit: Fuel leak. Probably close to the tank, or the tank itself, since they couldn't fix it in time.

[-] Jozav@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

F1TV says he will not take part.

[-] LittleWizard@feddit.de 10 points 11 months ago

I still can't wrap my head around McLaren's turnaround mid season. If you only count the second half of the season, they would be well in the fight for the constructors championship.

[-] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

I think these forced tyre changes have ruined this races potential

[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

They need to change those curbs for next year. It's unacceptable to have curbs that cut the tires and force these kinds of restrictions.

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Poor Logan, I hope it's nothing serious

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 8 points 11 months ago

Perez grabbing a 5s penalty after he finally made his way to the front... Fuck's sake, Checo.

How are people blaming russell. He would have had to disappear to prevent contact

[-] ptrckstr@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

The max stint of 18 laps should throw in some chaos.

Merc imploding spectacularly. I doubt Lewis is gonna like that.

[-] dimspace@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago
[-] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 11 months ago

After he sees the replays, he'll blame himself, I'm sure. He is not stupid.

I do wonder, though, what teamLH will say about it. Something insane as usual I presume

[-] Xecer@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Worst 'champagne' celebration ever

Fernando has to pee in his own seat this time.

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Oh jesus... I just realised Max is already 23 seconds ahead while we're halfway the race.

Feels like a summary of this season.

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Alonso noooooo

Just glad he didn't beach it.

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

That re-join, though. Geronimo!

[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Bit of a jump scare for LeClerc

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 11 months ago

The cameraman filming Verstappens pitstop felt fancy with that camera toss.

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 11 months ago

I don't think this race warms Marko to Perez.

[-] DV8@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

If you get lapped by your teammate and are behind an Alfa Romeo, with a new engine, there's not a lot to be happy about.

Edit: behind 2 Alfa Romeo's. At this point they might as well put Ricciardo in the car when he returns so he can get used to it and let Lawson stay in the Alpha Tauri.

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 5 points 11 months ago

Has Verstappen been out of the track limits this race? Earlier F1TV commentary said he was the only one who remained within the lines.

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Don't think so. His teammate has that covered for the both of of them.

[-] hagelslager@feddit.nl 5 points 11 months ago

Yeah, it's pathetic he's in 12th in the fastest car of the grid.

[-] Jumi@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

I don't think he was ever under enough pressure to make a mistake like that.

Classic Merc

[-] scrotumnipples@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

"He turned in on me!" In 3... 2... 1...

[-] utubas@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

Ahh, good ol' Hamilton. Taken out by his teammate.

[-] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 11 months ago

Tsunoda was all like: Either I'm making this move or I'm fucking dying, take your pick Albon

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Another 5s penalty for Perez 🫠
