Every single time I think there will be a different result, only one thing ends up happening:
[V E R S T H A P P E N I N G]
He and Red Bull are just on another level…
Nice going, Danny.
Edit: Never mind (track limits).
Nice apology, LOL.
The track’s evolution has made this a fun session so far
How can VER be 0.8 up… this is not human anymore haha
I’m convinced that at least some of this is from all the hours he puts into competitive sim racing - he reckons he’s learned a lot from watching the best sim racers and that some of it translates to F1.
It can’t hurt that any waking moment not spent in a real car is spent in the virtual car. If nothing else he gets to really memorize all track layouts fairly precisely
Max 8 tenths quicker than Leclerc. Bonkers.
Man, that kick sponsoring on the Alfa looks super cheap
That’s how a race engineer should talk to his driver. GP knows when he’s right.
Genuine question:
I’m a relatively new fan, I started following the sport in 2020. I love to watch and I’ve been following closely.
To be honest I don’t know how I feel about the sprint format. It’s exciting sure, but to me it takes some steam out of the actual GP. I think I prefer the standard weekend format.
If you’re a long time fan, how do you feel about the sprint format compared to the standard weekend format? Do you think it’s good for the sport?
I’m pretty new too, and I don’t like it either. It’s nothing different from the main race. It’s just shorter. If they did something like flip the grid (or just the first 10 cars) that might make it more fun but as it is, I agree that it makes the main GP feel less special.
Been watching since the 90s. I don’t like the sprint format.
To me the best thing about F1 is to see a qualification where all cars have been set up to their limit. That to me is the pinnacle of the F1 weekend. I feel now that there is just 1 practice session everything is rushed and compromises are being made.
The sprint race is usually a huge spoiler of what is going to happen in the race but in a bit more careful mode.
What the fuck happened to Aston Martin? Was such a fun start to the season for Alonso. Gotta hand it to McLaren and their drivers. Have loved watching Piastri and his giant brass balls battling with Max in the start of the last couple of races.
They spent all their budget over winter and now have no upgrades planned it feels like. The other teams are spreading their upgrades throughout the year and Aston will sort of hold on to their deserved spot because Alonso is good at dragging the best out of any car
Not a red bull fan but GP handling an angry Max was a class act, great engineer.
