This friendship is officially tested.

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 12 points 2 weeks ago

They should stream tonight, for the drama.

[-] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Could be a spicy rest of the season

[-] FrostyTrichs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Almost certainly

[-] darreninthenet 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'm guessing Lando is flying home on British Airways tonight.

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

That was fun. If you like double moves, moves under braking, track limit violations, etc

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

did they just gift Russell a win???

[-] WaterSword@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 2 weeks ago

Great race imo. Bummer the fight at the front ended in trouble like that, but it was very exciting!

[-] epygots@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Toto on the radio lmao

[-] l_b_i@yiffit.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

Well the stewards won't be deciding one and two now.

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

I think I'm just gonna take a nap. Wake me up when someone calls a safety car.

[-] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

I hope you woke up for the last stint

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I actually walked to the supermarket to get some chips and stuff and when I returned the gap was 0.5.

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

3 stopper yet somehow nothing happening on track

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Well that just took a really sharp turn

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 3 points 2 weeks ago

Norris and Verstappen = Rosberg and Hamilton, but in different teams.

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world -2 points 2 weeks ago

Verstappen has turned into Hamilton and Lando has taken his role

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 6 points 2 weeks ago

Lewis became conflict avoidant in his later years, Max is willing to crash still. Different styles of defending.

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Max's defending today was just 'oh let me veer left so you crash into me'

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 3 points 2 weeks ago

Very entertaining combined with Lando's "you can't react to my move!" complaining.

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Feel like Leclerc and Alonso both did 5 stops for some reason.

[-] FrostyTrichs@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Well Oscar, will you take the gift Lando died for?

Edit- short vsc boooo

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

WTF is going in

Russell win?

[-] WaterSword@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 weeks ago

Piastri is doing great! Really showing his skill!

[-] LittleWizard@feddit.de 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Man, I really would have liked to see how that battle between verstappen and Norris turned out on track. Max is defending too aggressive. But even if Lando would have come through, he would have had to make up his track limits penalty. This is really disappointing.

[-] krimson@feddit.nl 5 points 2 weeks ago

I agree. I am a Max fan but not when he drives like this. I really hoped the “old” Max was a thing of the past but it seems he pops back up under extreme pressure.

[-] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

Nah, Max never matured. He just stopped being challenged. If he’s challenged, he reverts to full asshole. “I win or we crash.”

[-] ApexHunter@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

"Heads I win, tails you lose."

[-] wurstgulasch3000@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Verstappen 10s penalty is not enough for costing lando the race that he would have won

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Lando still had that 5 second penalty for track limits, he might have got around max but who knows if he could’ve built a 5 second gap in like 5-6 laps

[-] wurstgulasch3000@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Max also had a potential penalty pending for not giving the position back that he gained off the track. At least Jolyon Palmer thought so

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Ended up not getting that, though we’ll never know if he might have had he not hit Lando

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

It’s absolutely insane to me that they penalised a driver for locking up and handing the position back. What’s the point of racing?

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

It should’ve been clear to a driver of his calibre that he wasn’t making that move, and even if he didnt realize that.. he had gone off three time already when F1 drivers are supposed to be of the calibre to stay on track. Once during a dive isn’t a big deal, the problem is he’d already gone off three times.

These guys should be able to stay in the lines at the peak of Motorsport and driving for millions of € a year

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

If you’re opinion is to follow the letter of the law in that sense, how do you feel Verstappen didn’t even get a warning let alone a penalty for moving under braking?

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

He should’ve, feel like he didn’t only because the wreck happened, that they penalized him for, and his race was hampered enough that they didn’t add more on. Sometimes the stewards act like if your race is ruined due to X then they don’t need to enforce Y. I’m not sure I agree there

[-] urquell@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

Now he has a grid penalty instead (I think)

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

What happened to Red Bull pit crew

Max with a 6+ sec pitstop

Perez with a 8+ sec pitstop

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 8 points 2 weeks ago

Unlucky for max that a bolt wouldn't fasten and then Norris was there so he couldn't drive off.

Perez had a 5s penalty so 8s is decent considering.

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Death, taxes and Norris fucking up the start...

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

He is still learning how to start from the front.

[-] FrostyTrichs@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

Go get him Lando.

[-] WaterSword@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 weeks ago

Love the drama between Gasly and Ocon. Glad to see some fighting on track too!

[-] cooltrainer_frank@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

The Hans Zimmer anthem was a banger!

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

What. An. Ending.
