Stroll upset he can't crash into other cars whenever he feels like it

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

What pissed me off was when he said on the radio that Ricciardo was an idiot for braking hard. I mean seriously?

[โ€“] shikitohno@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago

Stroll just needs to be out of F1 already, he just keeps showing he is not on the level to do this. Guy makes the dumbest mistakes and never seems to own up to it. He's slow as hell most days, to boot.

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Alonso not even getting slowed down by gravel.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That was a beautiful save.

[โ€“] lapes@kbin.social 8 points 2 years ago

And he just opened DRS right after as if nothing happened

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

It was incredibly skillful

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

Not a good day for the Aussies. Bottas out with engine troubles, Ricciardo and Piastri getting torpedoed by Stroll.

[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Hamilton utilizing all his racing prowess to get past a.. Haas.

[โ€“] joba2ca@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

So nice to have Nico alongside Crofty. I love the insight he gives, really adds a lot to the race.

[โ€“] hypnotoad__@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

I personally find him arrogant and grating. But he does have a few good analyses, I will say.

[โ€“] Donut@leminal.space 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Not just insight, but also not afraid to push back a little against Crofty when he said Alonso's last stop was working out well. He corrected him by saying Alonso is making the most of a terrible situation. You don't see Martin do that too often.

Not saying Crofty needs to be 100% correct all the time. When you're talking for 2+ hours you're allowed to make some mistakes, as long as they get picked up and corrected. Like today. It was civil and nice.

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

Max was gaining nearly a second per lap ๐Ÿ˜ต

[โ€“] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Rebull pitstops are on another level today.

[โ€“] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And it was even a double stack

Both of them were double stacks and near or under 2.1 seconds

[โ€“] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Racing Bull double dnf.

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

Arbitrary safety car imho.

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 3 points 2 years ago

I assume there is loads of carbon and metal wheel rim over the track.

  • Was that tractor on track?
[โ€“] espentan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Gasly a bit eager to get going again..

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 2 points 2 years ago

A 3.2 second pitstop for salbur - wow! ๐Ÿคฃ

Good job Norris.

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Aston Martin took a page from the Ferrari '22 ~~play~~clownbook

Edit: Ok, since Alonso started banging in fastest laps this might have been a premature comment. We'll see

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 3 points 2 years ago

Wow-we that wheel in the gravel though

[โ€“] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That safety car took forever the hell?

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 2 years ago

Yeh, felt a bit wrong that he was getting out on that corner just under yellows

Now Perez gifted alonso to Norris with drs.

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 2 years ago

Lando P2 then?

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

Rosberg emphasizing that he's serious when saying Perez is a quick driver, lol.

[โ€“] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 2 years ago

Ooh, when is the 1 stop window?

Safety car ending.
