I don't even know what to say about Perez anymore

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Out qualified by Zhou in a Sauber, oof. Just retire mate.

[-] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

He's not leaving Red Bull and plans to retire there SMH.

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

That sphere right after he was out was the cherry on top

[-] PaulieDied@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The car isn’t as good as it used to be, and he ain’t no Max…

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

The car is clearly not that bad

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 month ago

Damn Colapinto. Fast but still costing Williams money they don't have

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 month ago

Wild gasly appears out of nowhere

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Logan put Williams in a hole, budget cap wise. Colapinto about to finish the job.

[-] Norodix@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Damn, I hate this track. We spend more time watching that stupid glowing ball that the race. Stupid concrete walled dangerous track.

Colapinto noooooo

Man I feel for Williams. Don't know how Vowles must be feeling right now.

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

What did Williams do to deserve this?

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

I don't see them having 2 cars tomorrow

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

It should be muscle memory for Williams mechanics to build a car after every session by now.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

While that might be true, do they have enough parts on hand¿?

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Crofty kept repeating it on broadcast, that Williams has latest spec spare available.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Ok good to know. F1TV crew don't have this information it seems.

There is also another complication where using new parts may get them included into cost cap calculations and push them over the limit

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

GASLY!!!

Verstappen qualifies ahead of Norris. Championship deciding moment?

Unfortunate Q3 for Hamilton after such good practice sessions.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 month ago

How the fuck did gasly do that¿? In none of the sessions did alpine or gasly show that sort of pace

[-] DV8@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Putting it together and best possible track conditions? Verstappen also improved despite not getting a personal best sector 2.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

While this is true, gasly had a pretty big jump and he was far closer to the lead merc than alpine have been throughout the weekend. That was a cracking lap

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 3 points 1 month ago

Shows how insanely sensitive this track is in terms of tire temps. Getting them working right is everything here and can put an Alpine 3rd. Amazing qualy by Gasly.

[-] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Can anyone explain what Stroll was doing?

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Stroll's car had a problem with the ECU at the end of FP3. By the time they fixed the car, only around 3 minutes were left in quali. Considering that he got just one run without much time to prepare his tyres, I am impressed that he was only 2 tenths away from alonso

[-] wes@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Perez 🤷‍♂️

[-] florge@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago

Kinda feel for Lewis, for once the team don't fuck his setup after a good practice and he mades a mistake in Q3.
