Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the Canadian Grand Prix Weekend thread.

Details about this race can be found here.

Sessions

This thread will cover all the sessions this weekend, so that's all 3 practice sessions, qualifying, and the race.

We will monitor how this goes to see if we need more granularity.

Spoilers

The rules around spoilers are not yet in place, therefore we won't be enforcing anything around spoilers this weekend. This goes beyond the scope of this thread too.

If you do not want spoilers, please do not look in this community this weekend.

The aim is to have a finished set of rules ready by mid next week.

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.

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.

Nando win please!

[–] ncls_ptrk@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

What happened to TSU? He pitted after the first lap?

[–] Omgarm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lewis is keeping up with Max. Oh wait as I type this he lost a couple tenths. Still, great pace of the Merc.

[–] mannycalavera@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Is this the "official" race discussion thread? I couldn't find anything on my instance so came here.

Great race start by the way. Should be a good one. Enjoy!

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.

[–] smokelessndepressed@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Mercedes said in the radio that it was because of his rear brakes. Good race for him overall anyway, the upgrades are working!

Ferrari need to shake things up, move some of the Le Mans team into senior positions. Winning has consequences.

[–] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

AF Corse are an independent team, not related to Ferrari. They just have Ferrari cars.

what's going on with Ocon's rear wing?

[–] Omgarm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It's waving at us!

Can you sort comments by new in Jerboa? Otherwise difficult to find new comments.

That last lap was crazy. Norris drove like a man possessed. And that Stroll's overtake on Bottas. Will have to rewatch that couple of times I think to catch all the details. Honestly amazing.

[–] unomar@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

Shame it was all for nothing, but that was a fun lap to watch from Lando

[–] MrStrawberry@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

Wow, can't believe just a few races ago we were talking about whether this would be Perez year. And he is not even close to Verstappen.

[–] Omgarm@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He has one lap to save it.

[–] clara@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

wait, just tuned in, what the fuck happend?

[–] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Rain, if I were to answer in just one word.

[–] clara@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

makes sense... RIP LEC tho :^(

[–] quintinza@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lec was his team not listening to him when he said slicks were the way to go. They screwed him yet again with a bad call.

[–] sunaurus@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So it's effectively over now with Hulk on the front row?

[–] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Session probably restarts, but if rain continues track will be slower.
