I'm a Max fan, but seriously, that overtake should have everyone in awe. I can't even comprehend how that worked.

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 7 points 3 weeks ago

Franz Hermann might be a good driver.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Incredible overtake.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

Aston Martin's race has completely come undone.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

This is again a race where Norris is reminding me of Bottas. So incredibly fast if he doesn't have to overtake.

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 11 points 3 weeks ago

Oof Alonso is pissed.. but he is somewhat right, his curse has been following him for over 15 years now

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 8 points 3 weeks ago

He's not far off in his assesment to be fair. He is an incredibly unlucky driver. Monaco 2023 still haunts me.

[โ€“] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

huffs hopium

17 kph headwind down the main straight will make overtaking easier, surely

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Uh, Oscar is having a bad day today

[โ€“] stokholm@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And the team is consistently trying to make it worse.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

The first pitstop was on Piastri, he didn't stop at the right place

But yeah, the strategy they chose for him is bad

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 6 points 3 weeks ago

That's going to make things exciting!

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Albon noooooooo

I feel like he shouldn't have pitted and give up track position during SC in hopes to regain it on fresher tires.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Albon in 3rd! Go Weeyums!!!!

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Shame that the VSC killed what was otherwise shaping up to be surprisingly interesting with some split strategies. Fucks sake Haas.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Iny opinion it's still interesting though. Might be less 'fair' but that has happened before and will happen again. Generally it evens out.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yuki literally had one job today and he failed immediately. Let's hope he can redeem himself.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Not a lot he could have done to prevent Piastri from going past that fast

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

He flubbed that corner to the point he lost DRS while Piastri still had it. Maybe Piastri could have done an overtake in the round after that by being smart. But Yuki just drove poorly there.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Hadjar driving the race of his life so far. Pit stops are generally done, and we're in the latter half of the race and he's in 5th. Hope he can at least fight off the Ferraris.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

Let's hope he can fight off the Mercedes

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That's awful timing for Norris

[โ€“] stokholm@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

Don't worry, the team handed him a second place.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Mega unlucky for Norris and McLaren. They're always choosing the wrong times to pitstop.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

If it turns into a full safety car, it will make it easier for them to win though.

[โ€“] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

Albon and Hadjar within reach of the podium at least

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Nice Russel train going on

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Full safety car, so Max will not win. Probably Norris will take it now.

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Feel like a โ€œletโ€™s make things more entertainingโ€ safety car

[โ€“] bob@feddit.uk 4 points 3 weeks ago

Entertainment car

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The ghost of Masi lives on!

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Letโ€™s go car racing!

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I don't think that this would happen this early in the season tbh. And if they wanted the race itself more interesting they'd red flag it for a restart.

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

McLaren is too much of a clusterfuck to do that

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

I agree their strategy is still abysmal, but the car is still obviously better. And getting lucky with a safety car is not strategy. (And every top team and driver gets this advantage from time to time)

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah but keeping the fastest car behind the slower one is bad strategy.

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 1 points 3 weeks ago

Any weather updates? Any showers forecast still?
