Poor Sargeant. He gets a lot of shit, but that's gotta suck being sick out there, as hot and humid as it is. Yeah, nothing wrong with retiring if he really can't handle it anymore.

[โ€“] RagingToad@feddit.nl 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

According to Dutch commentators he doesn't like to drink during racing. Could very well be the cause?

(I don't know if he was sick from the start)

Hamilton: I got taken out by my teammate.

Russell: I got taken out by my teammate.

Inserts spiderman meme

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

Solid stuff by Norris. From 10th to 3rd is quite the feat.

[โ€“] utubas@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What a shitshow of a circuit. Too bad petrodollars speak higher than anything else

[โ€“] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

I know. And we have this for 9 more years. Yay.

1.8s pitstop by McLaren, damn

[โ€“] SuperIce@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Maybe he's trying to challenge Ocon's penalty record

[โ€“] IamAnonymous@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Perez lapped by his teammate.

[โ€“] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 2 years ago

Hopefully, Logan is okay.

I can't imagine being sick while driving a bloody f1 car. Sounds horrifying honestly

[โ€“] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 years ago

Hey Lance, please let Fernando through. You're slow as fuck. Thank youu

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I am jealous, can I also get a five seconds penalty?

[โ€“] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Sainz might be out with a fuel leak according to Albert Fabrega

[โ€“] FrostyTrichs@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Ferrari should just put him in the pit wall to call strategy for Charles. Maybe the strategists would learn something.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Definitely out, they're saying now.

Edit: Fuel leak. Probably close to the tank, or the tank itself, since they couldn't fix it in time.

[โ€“] Jozav@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

F1TV says he will not take part.

[โ€“] LittleWizard@feddit.de 10 points 2 years ago

I still can't wrap my head around McLaren's turnaround mid season. If you only count the second half of the season, they would be well in the fight for the constructors championship.

[โ€“] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think these forced tyre changes have ruined this races potential

[โ€“] SuperIce@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

They need to change those curbs for next year. It's unacceptable to have curbs that cut the tires and force these kinds of restrictions.

[โ€“] Jumi@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Poor Logan, I hope it's nothing serious

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Perez grabbing a 5s penalty after he finally made his way to the front... Fuck's sake, Checo.

Fernando has to pee in his own seat this time.

[โ€“] ptrckstr@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The max stint of 18 laps should throw in some chaos.

Merc imploding spectacularly. I doubt Lewis is gonna like that.

[โ€“] dimspace@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[โ€“] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago

After he sees the replays, he'll blame himself, I'm sure. He is not stupid.

I do wonder, though, what teamLH will say about it. Something insane as usual I presume

[โ€“] Sentau@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago

How are people blaming russell. He would have had to disappear to prevent contact

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Oh jesus... I just realised Max is already 23 seconds ahead while we're halfway the race.

Feels like a summary of this season.

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't think this race warms Marko to Perez.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If you get lapped by your teammate and are behind an Alfa Romeo, with a new engine, there's not a lot to be happy about.

Edit: behind 2 Alfa Romeo's. At this point they might as well put Ricciardo in the car when he returns so he can get used to it and let Lawson stay in the Alpha Tauri.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Alonso noooooo

Just glad he didn't beach it.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That re-join, though. Geronimo!

[โ€“] SuperIce@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Bit of a jump scare for LeClerc

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago

The cameraman filming Verstappens pitstop felt fancy with that camera toss.

Wish Nico is the interviewer today

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Has Verstappen been out of the track limits this race? Earlier F1TV commentary said he was the only one who remained within the lines.

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

Don't think so. His teammate has that covered for the both of of them.

[โ€“] hagelslager@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago

Yeah, it's pathetic he's in 12th in the fastest car of the grid.

[โ€“] Jumi@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I don't think he was ever under enough pressure to make a mistake like that.

Tsunoda was all like: Either I'm making this move or I'm fucking dying, take your pick Albon

[โ€“] scrotumnipples@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

"He turned in on me!" In 3... 2... 1...

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Classic Merc

[โ€“] utubas@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Ahh, good ol' Hamilton. Taken out by his teammate.
