"False start"

"No, it was a great start"

Comedy gold

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 16 points 1 month ago

Are all of them driving like idiots now?

Perez-Stroll and Lawson-Perez are under investigation, Colapinto did a stupid move on Piastri..

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 7 points 1 month ago

Write stupid rules, get stupid races. This is all on FIA and the stewards. You reap what you sow.

Another 10 seconds penalty for Max

[-] flabbergast@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

VER needs to be DSQ-ed. Guy is fucking dangerous with his red mist.

[-] flabbergast@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Fucking finally, 2x 10s penalty!

Verstappen is an idiot who only knows how to drive and start in first.

Edit: both RBs drive like they're alone on the track

[-] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

At least Perez made it past the first ~~corner~~ straight this time.

Aaaand he picked up a penalty already. This man..

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Perez was wayyy off his grid position.

The interaction between Perez and his race engineer was comical.

Can't say this kind of driving is endearing Max to me.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

Track temperature has dropped by 5 degrees, could impact the grip a lot says Wurz as we see marbels

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Smooooooth operator

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Aston Martin says Alonso's retirement was due to a brake issue related to cooling

Unfortunate. Uneventful end to his 400th race weekend.

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 7 points 1 month ago

Going by the radio transcripts on Multiviewer something got stuck in a brake duct and they overheated instantly

Leclerc omg

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago

Everybody boxing to get fastest lap and Norris simply tries to go for it with his old hards lol

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 month ago

This first at apex shit has to change or else both Norris and max will just race to the apex without any regards to making the corner

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 9 points 1 month ago

100%, the rules need fixing and fast.

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Contact between Lawson and Perez. Perez has a small hole on his right sidepod.

Another 10s penalty for Verstappen wow.

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

I'm all for Red Bull downfall

[-] Pringles@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

My completely non-expert prediction: Max goes back to winning ways after Sainz overcooks his engine while Norris gets taken out by a Mercedes. Perez ruins his race trying to get past Magnussen and Hulkenberg finishes in 5th.

[-] Nighed@feddit.uk 8 points 1 month ago

Wowe, 20s total penalties

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago

Man everybody is fighting like crazy this weekend

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago

Lando in that McLaren is so weirdly gentle on the tyres. Like his outright pace is not ahead of the others but he seems to have minimal degradation. Either that or else he is taking it too easy at the start of the stint and not maximising the entire stint.

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 4 points 1 month ago

Piastri has been having a rough couple of months but from the season overall it looks like a car characteristic. We've seen several races where both McLarens seem to perform best towards the end of a stint.

Norris gaining slowly on Leclerc. He has 15 laps – plenty of opportunities to try and overtake.

[-] PrincessKadath@ani.social 6 points 1 month ago

Still no mariachi theme. Sadness.

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

It has happened! I'm now at peace.

[-] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

They used it for the line-up song lol

[-] PrincessKadath@ani.social 4 points 1 month ago

IT'S THERE!

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Haas holding steady with 7th and 8th. Kmag's keeping up with the Mercs. Impressive stuff so far.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

People are gonna make gifs of him sitting out that 20 seconds penalty

[-] PrincessKadath@ani.social 5 points 1 month ago

Ouch. There goes Yuki's chance.

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Ferrari benefits again from the VER-NOR sparring.

[-] PrincessKadath@ani.social 5 points 1 month ago

That was close for Charles.

[-] PrincessKadath@ani.social 4 points 1 month ago

Did they load the Haas fuel tanks with tequila?

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago

I get 10 seconds for the T8 incident but for T4 10 seconds seems excessive especially considering Norris kept the place after T4 by going off track

[-] Nighed@feddit.uk 6 points 1 month ago

I think it's because this one might have been a deliberate decision to run him off rather than them both outbreaking themselves. (Maybe?)

Remember that the driver steward changes ever race (as well as the other stewards?)

I mean, this should really be a penalty.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago

Drama from the start!

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

The return of VER-PER, but on the last positions of the field
