Stroll upset he can't crash into other cars whenever he feels like it

[โ€“] shikitohno@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

Stroll just needs to be out of F1 already, he just keeps showing he is not on the level to do this. Guy makes the dumbest mistakes and never seems to own up to it. He's slow as hell most days, to boot.

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

What pissed me off was when he said on the radio that Ricciardo was an idiot for braking hard. I mean seriously?

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Alonso not even getting slowed down by gravel.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That was a beautiful save.

[โ€“] lapes@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

And he just opened DRS right after as if nothing happened

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

It was incredibly skillful

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Not a good day for the Aussies. Bottas out with engine troubles, Ricciardo and Piastri getting torpedoed by Stroll.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Hamilton utilizing all his racing prowess to get past a.. Haas.

[โ€“] joba2ca@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So nice to have Nico alongside Crofty. I love the insight he gives, really adds a lot to the race.

[โ€“] hypnotoad__@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

I personally find him arrogant and grating. But he does have a few good analyses, I will say.

[โ€“] Donut@leminal.space 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not just insight, but also not afraid to push back a little against Crofty when he said Alonso's last stop was working out well. He corrected him by saying Alonso is making the most of a terrible situation. You don't see Martin do that too often.

Not saying Crofty needs to be 100% correct all the time. When you're talking for 2+ hours you're allowed to make some mistakes, as long as they get picked up and corrected. Like today. It was civil and nice.

Max was gaining nearly a second per lap ๐Ÿ˜ต

Racing Bull double dnf.

[โ€“] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Rebull pitstops are on another level today.

[โ€“] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And it was even a double stack

Both of them were double stacks and near or under 2.1 seconds

[โ€“] Aurix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Arbitrary safety car imho.

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 3 points 1 year ago

I assume there is loads of carbon and metal wheel rim over the track.

  • Was that tractor on track?
[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 2 points 1 year ago

A 3.2 second pitstop for salbur - wow! ๐Ÿคฃ

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Gasly a bit eager to get going again..

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Aston Martin took a page from the Ferrari '22 ~~play~~clownbook

Edit: Ok, since Alonso started banging in fastest laps this might have been a premature comment. We'll see

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 3 points 1 year ago

Wow-we that wheel in the gravel though

Good job Norris.

[โ€“] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That safety car took forever the hell?

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 1 year ago

Yeh, felt a bit wrong that he was getting out on that corner just under yellows

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 1 year ago

Lando P2 then?

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 1 year ago

Ooh, when is the 1 stop window?

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Rosberg emphasizing that he's serious when saying Perez is a quick driver, lol.

Now Perez gifted alonso to Norris with drs.

Safety car ending.
