FP1 @ 2:50 remaining, nice new camera view! from the bottom of Lando‘s pedal box looking at the back of the pedals and some of the steering column.

i wish they’d bring back the thermal camera.

Yeah thats a first for that camera angle, and its pretty sweet

No tyre warming blankets next year.

I can hear Lewis’ radio calls already “this is dangerous man”

Equal playing field for all. He’s gonna have to suck it up.

Can’t wait to see cold intermediates and wets in the rain.

 

[IDAFC21]

yay! now there's gonna be even MORE bunching up and weaving on the track to try and get heat into the tires before a quali run. And more red flags when Tsunoda plows straight off the track right out of the pits

 

[IDAFC21]

FP3 and quali watched!

Rain really mixed things up!!!! Congrats Sainz!! Not sure if its going to rain tomorrow, but looking like it should be a good race

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Yeah, qualifying was interesting, that’s for sure.

Spoiler

I’m really surprised that no one wadded their car up.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Get ready you wankers. Grid forming up.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Well, damn…

Russell got a poor start and was alongside Zhou. Gasly was slowly going in between them when Russell’s back left tire caught the front right of Gasly. That rotated Russell’s car counter-clockwise and his front left tire got in between the front-rear of Zhou. Zhou’s rear right went over Russell’s tire ame launched the rear of the car, causing it to flip.

Longest red flag eva

Holy shit they finally showed a replay where you could see something. Absolutely brutal

Spa last year was longer, so was Monaco this year. Canada ( when Button won)… but those were weather related.

oh, Bahrain last year when Grosjean crashed.

The confined space where the car ended up on its side was very unusual. Took a long time for everyone to get there. Seemed like even the medical care took its time.

plus they need time to fix the barriers and the fencing.

I was just going to say Grosjean’s Bahrain fiery crash was red flagged for a long time!

You guys hearing about the protestors on track on the first lap?

Were they protesting, or focused on the incident?

 

[Stink Star]

No, climate protestors apparently. If there wasn’t a red flag they would have been killed probably. They went out and sat on the track

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

and then there were 15

Spoiler

Correction, 17 remaining. Good job on the teams getting the two cars back on track!

If it didn’t weigh on the consciousness of the drivers, let them get plowed into.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Looking at the radar, it seems the rain will stay away.

OMG Crofty, get Hamilton's cock out of your mouth for five seconds.

HAM is leading because of damage to the cars that were in front of him, he inherited the position. If the cars ahead of him were 100% HAM wouldn't be close to them.
