Ferrari not pitting under the safety car.
Count that as the first strategy blunder of the day!
Imagine what blunder they could have made with pitting!
Once for a change they actually got this right.
Truly shocked that it worked out for them at all.
I fully imagined ill advised stops that put them both back into the DRS train. Not bad, Scuderia!
they may be gambling on more safety cars, but im not sure that would help them.
Because this one's going to bunch the field up. Another safety car in 5 laps and Ferrari pitting would put them 17th-18th
Very strong drive from Albon, love to see it.
Three F1 communities across .world, .ml and kbin.. time to plant our flags in our favourite :D
As for the race... predictions:
We ticked Alonso gets mad at ~~someone~~ Lewis.
Haha! I love cynical GP. "Yeah we got the message, just drive...."
And despite the problem he's still pulling away
I think that was was GP meant: "Sonny you're not fooling anyone driving faster than the rest of the grid..." Since I took Max message as mind games to goad tyre information from other teams.
That alpine wing stressed me out so much
De Vries: "You're coming with me!"
Haha yeah, seemed a bit aggressive. Ruined both of their races.
Looked pretty damn funny, though
Felt pretty amateur from De Vries.
He pushed Kevin wide into turns one and two, only to ruin his entry into turn two. Then completely locks up into three trying desperately to hold onto a place heโd more or less already lost.
Albon back into the points! (for now)
Points for Alex!
Did well there defending like his arse depending on it!
Jenson in the safety car, cheesing like a kid haha
What the hell was that? I thought they are gonna get out and start a fist fight.
Was expecting a RUS/BOT v2
Max for the first time this season had to push to not get caught. Alonso and later Hamilton with the mediums had practically the same pace as him.
The 33 is coming. ๐
Mercedes integrated some Tank building knowledge into their car.
Can we get some rain?
Wondering how the Mercs will do compared to Alonso.
Can Max be beaten? How far will Perez progress, will he beat the Mercs?
Predictions:
Hey guys, just joined Lemmy due to the silly reddit changes.
Glad to see there's already been work put in to create a sublemmy.
Ferrari, finally with a decent strategy, it is nice to see. Hopefully not just getting my hopes up once again.
Still not sure of it was deliberate or a fluke. Bit kinda glad they did well. We need them in the mix.
We finally did see some team orders and not some back alley strategy to handicap the second driver (Sainz).
All changes in parc ferme were either with comparable parts or within allocation, so the final starting grid matches the provisional.
I'm really excited to have my best bois Lando, Oscar, and Alex in the top ten, but honestly expect that they (along with Nico) will mostly just cause a traffic jam. Here's to hoping though.
What a podium. The gods of F1 together. All 3 world champions currently on the grid were on the podium, and joined by Newey as well. Also glad for Albon, love seeing him in the top 10.
It was a shame that Alonso didn't had a new set of medium tyres, he was faster than Hamilton when they had the same compound.
Russell made a good comeback after the crash, having to retire the car was very harsh after all he did to get into the points again.
I just want to know what Norris did that earned him an โunsportsmanlikeโ penalty??
What? Did Lance upset his Dad and had to do an House arrest Pit stop or did he have a slow puncture?
