He's been impressive today, definitely taking me by surprise.

[–] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

Holy shit Williams

Was it because he had to slow down due to yellow flag or does the last corner have track limits?

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think he aborted the lap because he was outside track limits there, but I'd have to go back to make sure.

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah he made a mistake in the last corner and that in itself cost him time, plus being outside track limits

[–] Nighed@sffa.community 2 points 1 month ago

Yellow blocked DRS I think? Or just caught by yellow

[–] urquell@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

It looked like his engineer called the yellow while it was a white flag.

[–] AliSaket@mander.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

The mistake in T16 shouldn't have cost him that much time. It was on the approach to T18, where OCO slowed down to let him past to almost a standstill, causing a yellow to come out and Lando backing off.

If Bearman is good in Haas next year, Ocon will lose his temper for sure

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 4 points 1 month ago

I can see it being a shit-show for sure.

[–] rodrigodias@mstdn.social 3 points 1 month ago

@Microw @wes Bearman will put Ocon in his pocket (as we say in Brazil) next season

[–] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (2 children)

That was embarrassing from Williams

[–] flabbergast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I guess they don't mind losing their fans...

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago

What are you talking about? Williams and their fans seem to be inseparable!

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

Mistakes happen. That could be worse.

[–] mhague@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

The rookies did well

[–] flabbergast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

As if Lando's task wasn't big enough already...

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Leclerc just loves Baku, huh? I think he's said this is one of his favourite tracks, and it shows. Very good lap from him there.

[–] Thade780@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Lando, NOOOOOOOOO!

[–] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago

Damn the rookies are looking great. Great laps by Colapinto and Bearman.

[–] Aarrodri@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I guess no team orders will be needed (mc)

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

Did not have albon and Verstappen getting out qualified on my bingo

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

How did Williams forget that airbox

This is getting interesting

[–] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was driving. The fuck happened to Lando¿?

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Aborted lap because of yellow flag, ran out of time for another lap.

Unfortunate

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Williams so good that they gave Albon the additional task of removing tools on track

[–] f1ip@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

PER finally beats VER in qualy!!!

Plus, Williams helped ALB get beaten for the first time as well.

[–] cheddar@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

Just in time for this silly media hype to die.
