I am hoping for rain, the great equalizer. Itāll be such a shit show of epic proportions. Think back to Germany last year. One big ass slipānāslide, lol.
If the race is half as entertaining as last weekend itāll be a good one.
heck of a shunt DR took going into the wall. Bit of a hobble as he got out of the car. Hope he is okay and they can get the car back together.
I've heard several times from persons in the know that Penske is twisting Ferrari's collective arm to be an engine supplier in Indy Car. Seb's name have been tied to those talks.
I find that had to believe, though. With Ferrari basically firing him by not offering him a contract for next year.

IndyCar focusing on Ferrari as third engine supplier
NTT IndyCar Series owner Roger Penske says the quest to sign a new engine partner is focused on Ferrari, and Ferrari alone, as talks continue with Scuderia Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto to ā¦

just finished up w/ the (delayed) quali. Definitely going to make things interesting tomorrow. And great job by Russell!!
Definitely didnt have the same excitement as last week but it was still pretty good. The last couple laps were definitely excited. I love watching max drive when he gets into battles. The way he regained (temporarily) that spot from Bottas was impressive. And Norris is looking [emoji91][emoji91] for McLaren
Right now Im for whatever keeps racing going. They're the first major sport to resume since all this shit kicked off. I still think it's silly how every team is allowed to form their cars up on the grid all at once, and i know they're all masked up, and I know they're all tested, but hey, as long it works.........
Oh and LeClerc finally admitting he fucked up. I did like the post show where Antony Davidson paused the replay where LeClercās car was up in the air crushing Vettelās and saying, āthis is the photo thatās going to be on display at Ferrari tomorrow morning with the powers-that-be demanding āexplain thisā.ā

Still watching FP1.
Stroll and Verstappen need to sit on a block of ice to cool off their whiny asses.
Perez really knackered that tire. They keep praising him, but if it werenāt for the money he brings they should can his ass. He āleads the teamā, bullshit, he canāt follow team orders. Look at Canada last year, holding up Ocon because of his ego. Fuck him.

Just finished up the race. So much drama even before it started! First 5 laps were bonkers as well. Lotta good mid-pack battles, as usual. Good race overall. Lots to talk about once everyone gets caught up. All I'll say is watching Hamilton race is like when I play Forza on a low difficulty.
The on track action was okay, more battles going on, and the occasional (oh look, Lewis is passing another back marker. Oh look, he just a lapped a Ferrari.) And I still don't get why leaders should get to use DRS with back markers. Make it so it can only be used when you're 1 second or less behind the car in the position ahead of you. Not just because you're behind any car.
What I don't get is all the praise for Verstappen. Everyone is pulling their hair out over what an extraordinary drive he did after his pre-race incidents. He didn't do fuck all. He crashed his car before the race, sliding off track what, three times? He was out looking for grippier areas after watching the F2 race and he slid off. No better than Grosjean crashing in pit lane.
His crew should get all the credit for fixing the car in the 20 minute window with mere seconds to spare. He still started from the same position he qualified for. It's not like he had to come from last place up to the front. He just drove as he normally would have.

And Perez is out for this weekend's race. Meh.
