"Change in climatic conditions", don't think I've seen that message before..

[โ€“] hillbicks@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

To phrase the message in that particular way had to be intentional, right? We'll have to get used to that in the coming seasons, it was only a matter of time.

To be quite honest, I can't shake the increasing feeling that formula1 and motorsport in general are just not sustainable anymore and I say that as a motorsport fan of over 30 years. Been to the nordschleife more times than I can count, set a lap time on it, loved every second of it and I still absolutely love motorsport.

I'll get a bit of severance pay next year and I'm seriously tempted to at least participate one year in amateur motorsports, but I can not justify it I think....... Every little bit counts they say......

Anyway, sorry for the rant, but it's been in my head for a long time now.

[โ€“] Dave@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 2 years ago

I agree with you. While I enjoy all forms of karting, I only partake in the electric ones now. Total blast. But indoors and smaller circuits. Still stupid fun.

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

Looks like Max may have nailed the timing.

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

Yes. It was smart of him passing people in the pit exit

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

What a storm!

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

Wow crazy how quickly the sky got dark.

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

Interviews inside F1โ€™s garage XDDD

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I like it, safety cars as backdrop works!

Edit: And Max and Charles leaning on a wing, chatting, is just icing on the cake.

[โ€“] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

It felt more, Idk, intimate? Maybe cozy. Like the drivers weren't as "staged" as they usually are since they had to do in close quarters, last minute.

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

Wind ruined the lap for some drivers. No more laps now, it seems. VER, LEC and the Astons the winners.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Unfortunate to see Ricciardo go out in Q1 after last week's excellent performance.

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

Yuki: Lewis Hamilton, Lewis Hamilton, Lewis Hamilton

[โ€“] Dmian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Beetlejuicing Lewis

[โ€“] Cheesebaron 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What happened to him? Impeding?

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That was what Yuki implied, but I never saw any evidence of it, not to say it didn't happen

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

Those are some ominous clouds. Could be an interesting end to Q3.

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

I like how Ferrari gives Charles an umbrella for that 30 ft walk and Red Bull makes the 3 in a row reigning world champion run lol

[โ€“] Dmian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Times are really close. Will we get surprises?

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Qualifying delayed until(at least) 15 minutes past.

[โ€“] hillbicks@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Have they said why? Do you know?

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They're sweeping the track, apparently a bit too much debris for comfort.

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

Thanks. Make sense as there were a couple of incidents during FP1 with debris on track.

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

Itโ€™s officially over

[โ€“] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Good job AM. P3 (STR) and P4 (ALO).

Bad day for AT. Out in Q1, yikes.

And P9 for Perez isn't great for him.

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

Perez got caught in the yellow flag when Piastri spun. I guess when it rains, it pours, literally

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

I just wonder, why RB sends out Max so early and Perez so late... Yellow flags can happen at any time and with the rain approaching, why not send out both at the very front?

[โ€“] June@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Yea Checo was 1:56 behind Max. Maybe they were hoping the track would be a little more rubbered in or something. He was 4/10 off Max at the end of S2, but I donโ€™t know how much heโ€™s already backed out by then. Really disappointed he lost the chance, he was looking good today.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Red Bull's dominance over, AT the new #1 RB team. You read it here first! /s
