TIL, Gasly loves Pandas. Thank, random F1TV driver infographics.

And his favourite food is Italian!

Was that Alonso's fault? That seemed like Ocon's fault since there was snap of oversteer just before.

[–] Thade780@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Definitely not. Esteban lost it and widened his "trajectory" into Fernando's front left.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah, absolutely. I suppose you could argue that Fernando could've been even further to the right, but no, Esteban has to take the fall for that one, me thinks.

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

If Ocon thinks the loss of control was because of the line he had to take because of Alonso’s position on the track, then, maybe? Seems like a bit of a stretch but Alonso could have been a little wider if he was on a slow lap but I mean nothing seems especially egregious to me

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Ocon seems to have just gone straight into Alonso

DR P4 in SQ2! Both ATs, really, since Yuki is P10 currently. Impressive!

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

It really is!

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Nice one Lando, and Danny!

Edit: And Yuki!

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Prost still the undefeated champion of Interlagos, with 6 wins. Surprised to see Lewis "only" has 3.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

"Max, that was not expected". Now's not the time for you to be cheeky, Checo.

[–] FrostyTrichs@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Sprint qualifying at its best. Congratulations Lando!

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What a mess in the pitlane exit.. Max having to fight his way out on track.

[–] omgarm@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

They should have made the session 4 minutes. The first 4 were pointless now. Nobody wanted to go before the last possible window...

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Perez just seemed to block Verstappen's lap, only to pit. Did he mess up during that run?

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'm not sure what happened there. Based on the "that was not expected" comment on the radio it sounded like he went rogue for a bit.

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

Excited to see what McLaren can do today, and if the Astons really have a bit more pace than they've generally had for the second part of the season.

[–] Photographer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Absolutely, yesterday was looking like anyone's and then the rain came!

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

That dent in the headrest is another nice example of how cool all those protection mechanisms are.

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

Is this the first time Perez has been ahead of Max in a session, this year? Certainly feels like it.

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

😂😂😂sky is playing the radio messages and there is no sound whatsoever, complete silence. Wonderful broadcast, hope it gets flex for race day

EDIT: Crowd and pit lane sounds! “Technical difficulties” graphic is gone! Thank god. I did not know how much I missed it

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is the audio for the broadcast strange for anyone else? I feel like i can barely hear the cars at all; it might be engine noise getting picked up on Crofty’s mic. Also the theme music did not play, it was silent.

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

I'm on F1TV, with the Sky audio track and it seems fine here.

[–] 4am@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

The Sky feed does say “Technical Difficulties” in the bottom corner now, and every so often the picture “pops” like a piece of equipment is being A/B switched to try and fix the issue.

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Same here, all sounds normal.
