Bruh, the Redbull mechanics were looking at perez as if they knew the dude is out lmfao

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

That was my feeling too. "Get out, you're blocking our view of the screen".

Did we just witness the return of question, question?

[–] Chup@feddit.de 10 points 1 year ago

β™ͺ RETURN OF THE MARIACHI THEME! β™ͺ

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Best version of the F1 theme.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Perez playing the short game.

[–] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Perez forgot he's driving a real race and not a F1 23 multiplayer race.

[–] Chup@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Turned right into the side of a Ferrari...

Checo is losing me. I don’t know if I can keep doing this. Get your shit together man

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I think today was the day he blew it with Red Bull.

And Danny Ric's performance just makes it even worse for him. At this point I would be amazed if Checo is in a Red Bull (F1 car) next year

RB dont need someone to win races, they just need someone who can qualify well, not make stupid mistakes and finish 2nd-3rd behind Max

I'm really surprised at how well the mediums are holding on.

That Horner/Checo chat needs a caption competition

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

"So, Checo, how would you rate your performance today?"

I am happy for Danny. What a great race. Lets go!

[–] TastyWheat@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

That was some F1 23 level shit there Checo.

[–] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 year ago

Absolute masterclass by Norris holy fucking shit

Ferrari: Mediums will be slower than Hards in 5 laps

Narrator: But that wasn't true..

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They were all of them deceived...
For another tyre was made.

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Max pit under SC? he has to, 21 second lead, cannot waste that

edit: yup

This worked out absolutely perfect for Max, especially as he was the only one with two new sets of hards

God, I want Danny to hold on to that 4th, but there is no way in hell that Alpha Tauri can beat a Mercedes... right? I NEED SOME FUCKING COPIUM

The mediums will die in the end, I think mercedes risk didn't pay off

Its really hard to even get excited about the prospect of a Ferrari front row, because you just know they will somehow contrive to get in each others way, let Max through on lap one, and then make a pigs ear of their strategy and finish 5th and 6th

Well that was as predictable as the sun rising and setting.

I completely failed to predict Checo's stupidity though

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

If he could have proven he could keep a cool head he might have strengthened his case but this is just dumb. He just needed to cede second, overtaken in the next laps and cruised to second for a crowd that would have adored him.

So damn unnecessary and dumb. Apart from his contract he still needs to keep second place.

[–] Nighed@sffa.community 7 points 1 year ago

That was never going to work.

RIC in red bull next year

Ocon lmao what kind of radio message was that

If Danny can climb to 4th, I'm going to actually lose it

Leclerc will need armed escort out of Mexico, no matter if it was his fault or not

Holy shit what a bad crash for KMag. Glad he's out.

[–] Nighed@sffa.community 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did Sargent just box a lap early?

He had an issue and had to retire. Bummer for him, he was doing pretty well.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

He needed another lap.. damn.

[–] SlicingBot@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

For once I agree with all 3 drivers who are in the lead for driver of the day. That last move by Norris was chef's kiss.

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Sainz puncturing after driving over Charles' end plate under VSC would have been the crowning glory.

thankfully we have avoided that fiasco :D

[–] Nighed@sffa.community 5 points 1 year ago

Was that a bit of lando's car falling off on that curb?
