He has one lap to save it.
He didn't...
Is it 0% chance of race before and during the race or just during?
I recall the weather prediction a few days ago said rain during the race is unlikely but there could be rain a few hours beforehand.
Bwoah what a quali session. Too bad about the penalty for Hülkenberg, but still a very good result. The Q2 Albon gamble was also amazing, as well as both McLarens being up so high in Q2.
Big names dropping out, small teams rising to the top, constantly changing conditions, this is peak entertainment imo. And somehow Max always comes through and puts the car where it should be, it's so impressive.
Ferrari need to shake things up, move some of the Le Mans team into senior positions. Winning has consequences.
Disappointed with the lack of rain.
What happened to TSU? He pitted after the first lap?
Lewis is keeping up with Max. Oh wait as I type this he lost a couple tenths. Still, great pace of the Merc.
predictions:
- At least 3 yellow flags
- Alonso gets mad at someone
- Ferrari amaze us with a strategy we’ve never seen before
- George gets upset with Lewis
- Lewis gets upset with George
Alonso has to lift and coast, and de La Rosa in the Spanish broadcast hints that he has to save fuel due to the high race pace.
Mercedes said in the radio that it was because of his rear brakes. Good race for him overall anyway, the upgrades are working!
Can you sort comments by new in Jerboa? Otherwise difficult to find new comments.
Yeah I haven't figured out how to do that reliably yet.
If you figure it out please let us know!
I know that this post is for the full weekend. Could we still have a separate race discussion? I think this would make it a bit better to keep an overview.
There are a couple of reason why I'm going to say no to this now.
- I don't want to change how we're operating a race weekend during the race weekend.
- I'd like to see the experiment of one post per race weekend through.
If we get enough feedback asking for more granular threads then when will absolutely consider how we change things for future races.
Tomorrow there will be a post-race discussion. Perhaps in there you can make this point again?
Good call on not changing things as we're going! I personally do prefer to have separate threads, definitely easier for me to avoid spoilers that way when watching after the fact as opposed to live.
Not OP, but fair points.
Let's see how the discussion goes tomorrow. Enjoy the race!
Other than you know who, I have no predictions for how its going to play out!
So it's effectively over now with Hulk on the front row?
Session probably restarts, but if rain continues track will be slower.
Perez is losing on the Ferraris with softer tyres. How?
Skill issue
I think I tuned into the wrong channel. Instead of FP1 I got 55 minutes of marmot talk.
what's going on with Ocon's rear wing?
It's waving at us!
Lmao Toto reenacting Alonso's steering in the pits
Was weird, Sky did a reply that was cut to imply he was mimicking George’s crash.
