What a horrible weekend for Charles.
Correct choice to retire though.
Wet tires will probably never be used (unless enforced), even if the conditions are clearly full wet.
Teams are so greedy with staying on the inters so that even if some drivers pit for full wets, the race will inevitably be red flagged because someone staying on the inters will crash, which then makes you look silly for pitting for full wets a lap or two earlier.
Granted that they reinstated the positions of the previous lap so Perez is actually fine, but let Zhou crash one lap later and Red Bull would've been punished with Perez for doing the right thing for safety and to try and keep the race going.
I call the full wets "red flag tyres" cos we never see them on a car during a race for more than a lap without a red flag
I think everyone agrees with that, apparently even perelli have called it the safety car tire....
I think the best suggestion was to make a much better tire between the two if they can - that reduced the amount of tires they are lugging around too.

Speaking as a dutchie. There really is no crowd better than the dutch at setting a great mood. Especially in bad weather.
Was it the Dutch GP where there were allegations of sexual harassment last year? Or was that somewhere else? I dont quite remember
Apparently so. I didn't know about his but just read up on it. 15 cases quite bad. They stepped up measures this year. Hopefully there are no cases this year however we won't know till after.
Why are they so obsessed about the Max-Perez pit stop. It wouldnβt matter, Max would pass Perez in a couple of laps anyways. He got the gap down from 10 to 2.5 sec.
I don't get it either.. They gave Perez inters first, dragged him up to the front, then Max got softs first, giving him back the lead.
They just saved Perez the embarrassment of getting passed by Max on track. Max is 6 seconds ahead already, for crying out..
It's absolutely insane. Verstappen is on another plane of existence this season.
VER PER ALO
Nature is healing.
For those who are complaining: Jules Bianchi died under similar conditions in Suzuka 2014.
If anything, it took too much time to red flag the race. Zhou was in a very dangerous position.
That slowmo of the redbull pit stop was incredible
According to Dutch social media the DJ started his Red Flag set with a song about "raining beer".
Het is dus pompen of verzuipen.
The fact they booked a live singer for the Dutch anthem shows a lot of confidence. Not that the confidence is misplaced of course.
Crowd singing along to "Que Sera, Sera", the DJ is on point.
Compare the atmosphere here to e.g. Abu Dhabi, quite the difference.
Man if I ever have enough money to go to an F1 race then I'm definitely going to the Dutch Grand Prix
Perez restarts as 3rd.
That's fair, I think.
Yeh, it's good to not penalise teams for switching cars to the safer tire
F1TV has been referencing memes throughout the broadcast, the cooldown room was announced as "time for the podcast".
Absolute disaster for Tsunoda. Couldn't have imagined the race going any worse for Yuki if I tried.
For anyone wondering.
Most pit stops in an F1 race, 88, 2011 Hungarian Grand Prix
we are at 35-36 so far if my maths is right
edit: 35, confirmed on-screen. need another shower to give a chance of the record :D
Man, Williams have utterly screwed the pooch this weekend.
If Albon had pitted for inters like everyone else he potentially would have been on the podium going into the second lot of rain.
Then with the second lot of rain they leave him out too long again and kick him down from 6th to 9th which they compound by putting him on inters when its clear full wets
Then they get him stuck in the damn pits.
Guys, you may track the race from this site as well. https://f1-dash.vercel.app/ . This was created by a fellow lemmy user.
Ponchos and raincoats reported in the crowd at the start/finish.
Absolute wild race so far.
Restart in 10 min. I hope everyone will keep it whole
