Making this early as I doubt I'll be able to watch live this weekend. I need to take the little one to a kids birthday party 😬.

Anyway, post away your thoughts from the qualifying session in the future!

Are you a visionary or on an insane amount of hopium?

Oof, Perez...

Would really surprise me to see him at Red Bull next year.

[–] JCPhoenix 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Who would replace him? Yuki?

I know a lot of people are wishing for DR, but...is that really realistic?

I didn't even consider him coming back just because he's no longer an RB guy at all.

But yeah, OK, I'd be down with Albon in the second RB seat.

I don't wish harm on Max, but if he could bin it tomorrow and McLaren finish 1/2 I would be so happy.

My heart skipped a beat there when Lando was first. Excellent result either way and such a difference from the start of the year for McLaren

[–] JCPhoenix 4 points 2 years ago

I literally gasped out loud and yelled out "OMG!" when that happened, not realizing Lando was one of the first over the line. But then the motorsports gods (aka Max himself) made sure RB got that P1.

I loved Lando's cheeky, "Max ruins for everything for everyone," in response to the interviewer mentioning Lando almost getting P1. I don't understand how people don't like Lando; I think he's hilarious. Obviously him and Max are good friends, too.

Excellent day for McLaren!

God damn has the McLaren improved. Also piastri proving a massive upgrade on ricciardo already.

Max Verstappen VS Turning Radius, truly a fight of the century

[–] allie 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Perez super lucky there. Guessing he’ll at least make it through to Q2 now

[–] allie 8 points 2 years ago

Well this aged like milk

[–] t0fr@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

Yo. I actually screamed when Lando crossed that line in Q3 and Piastri too. Super happy for Albon as well!

[–] hotstove 3 points 2 years ago

Perez can’t help himself. Williams in Q2!

[–] Rosinenbomber@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Very happy for McLaren

[–] hrpanjwani@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago

McLaren should design a new livery for every track. That's the secret sauce that's really powering the car.

[–] hrpanjwani@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago

Ahhhhhhh!!!!!! Such a close thing for NOR.

[–] supermurs@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Well done McLaren!

Unbelievable. Just nowhere in quali

[–] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

It's going to be fun. Half of the cars on inters and half on softs.

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

What are the red things hanging from everyone's ears?

[–] hrpanjwani@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

ALB is kicking ass in that Williams. And PER down in the dumps again. Seat exchange incoming?

[–] JCPhoenix 1 points 2 years ago

Idk. Checo is still 2nd in the WDC. If Checo was somewhere around like 10th in the WDC, I could possibly see it. Alonso in 3rd isn't far behind Perez, but AM seems to be in a slump of sorts at the moment. And Perez still managed a great result last week.

Even in the Constructors, RB is in no danger. RB has over double the points than 2nd place Mercedes.

Not sure if it's worth RB rocking the boat at the moment.

Verstappen with a broken wing in boxes

[–] hotstove 1 points 2 years ago

Anyone have the weather report for qualifying?

[–] hrpanjwani@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Will VER cross into 1:26:xxx?
