Such a shame to see him foundering so much in the 2nd quarter of the season. Would love to see a closer championship force him out and some driver shuffling!
Seems like the timing of the SC essentially made it so that apart from a few unfortunate cars who came in early, the order is largely gonna stay the same, cause everyone is pitting. Oh well.
Mercedes, Ferrari, and McLaren all brought pretty major upgrades in the last few races and AM haven’t. It’ll be interesting to see if they can cling on for the rest of the season. In situations like this the cost cap might make things less competitive since the established teams have such better facilities.
Really didn't think the Mclarens could hold that on the hards. That was spectacular.
Hope we dont have track limits ruining the race afterwards again.
Just 3 more laps Norris pls stay within track limits 🙏🙏
Mclaren nooo why hards??
I think I’m this was all that what was available for them.
McLaren engineer lost at the front row
Turns out they seem to make it.
If this works out and Norris holds for the last few laps from Hamilton, oh my god.
Awesome start by Lando. Feels like Max is inevitable though.
Perhaps not as inevitable as we thought!
he already got him at lap 5 now.
Both mclarens managed to pull a nice gap from Ferrari though! These upgrades have been amazing for them.
Best friend Max letting his buddy lead the race for a few laps.
It wouldn't be an F1 race without a funny Ferrari radio.
Sounds like the race engineer didn’t know the strategy either. Lol
Insane stuff from Norris. Holding off Hamilton while on the hards is such a monumental feat.
Unfortunate situation for Piastri. Deserved that podium, but I think he'll be happy with a P4 as a rookie.
Happy to see Williams eventually get some points.
Disasterclass for Ferrari.
Looks like it's time for another listening of the dutch national anthem.
Hahaha. You never know, but yeah good luck to the rest.
Well this race went from yay to meh really fast
yeah not much happening rn. Unfortunately the rain just missed the track.
The McLarens have held onto their positions so far. Very impressive.
I'm not a fan of the team or the drivers, really, but it's always great to see teams stepping it up. Hoping for a competitive next season!
Agreed! Both the upgrades and driver’s performance have been spot on so far!
Yeah, I'm surprised with the McLaren performance this race. They've dealt with Mercedes so well.
Oh yes Lando! These McLaren upgrades seem like the real deal.
It definitely seems like the pack over the last few races are closing up to red bull (probably because they are focussing on next year)
Perez showing why someone else should be in that car this weekend.
I really hope lando gets a good start this time.
It wasn't too shabby was it.
yes you‘re right!
I'd love to see Max and Lando duke it out on equal terms
Piastri would have gotten third if not for the safety car. That's crazy.
Have fun today! I’m Dutch but I’m rooting for Lando today! 🚀
Welp that was fun while it lasted!
What was Stroll doing there?
Well deserved penalty for that ridiculous move. Poor Gasly, he was pretty quick today.
I forgor xD
Ooof, Ferrari 9 and 10…
That Williams is now a certified midfield car, love to see it.
This SC has worked only for Mercedes.
Actually very interesting race
I really hope Piastri can make it to the podium but I think the Hards just killed that :(
Lando understandably pissed as hell
we can be lucky if Norris makes it to the podium
I hope those hards work out
This race better not have a load of penalties given out in the next few hours due to track limits.
Verstappen more on top of Ferrari strategy than Ferrari.
McLaren pulled a Ferrari
Well, Alpine taking the worst day trophy from under Ferrari's nose.
Safety Car!
Hope we get some rain as well.
Looks like it already is raining. The colour of the track has changed.
Ferrari strategy strikes again
yeah why did they pit leclerc so early?
Feels like they could've pit sainz with soft as well
welp, they did not.
he was holding up Russell, they were just being nice
nooo oscar lost the p3 with this SC i guess? :(
yeah he got screwed
also hamilton with softs behind norris on hards… maaannn cmon mclaren.
Is Pep Guardiola in with Mercedes?
yea he‘s in the garage next to Toto.
Yup
Norris squeezing everything out of those hards. 👏👏
I'm not that familiar enough with what it's supposed to sound like, but isn't that a rather poor interpretation of the British national anthem?
aston martin struggling
perez still p14 lol.
Such a shame to see him foundering so much in the 2nd quarter of the season. Would love to see a closer championship force him out and some driver shuffling!
McLaren handling those hards like champs :O
Will Stroll get a penalty for that?
Well this race is a surprise
Oh man bad luck for Piastri.
It's a shame about AM, feels like they have fallen off in these two last races.
McLaren might not end up with a podium at all here :(
Will we see some spiciness like yesterday
Podium and Shakira. Not a bad weekend for Lewis really.
Can Albon sneak past Alonso? Here's hoping!
well at least he gets DRS to defend against Leclerc
Mixed conditions British GP with Lando on the front row? LET’S GOOOOO!
Hope the rest of them comes here from reddit
Charles LecPain
Maybe Ferrari just invented plan B?
Seems like the timing of the SC essentially made it so that apart from a few unfortunate cars who came in early, the order is largely gonna stay the same, cause everyone is pitting. Oh well.
So how's everyone watching the GP here? I'm just casting my F1TV.
I have the F1tv app on my nvidia shield.
yep, same here. Wish it was 4K but oh well. Now if they could make it auto switch to 50hz so that it's properly synchronized that'd be nice
Yeah, I'd love a 4k HDR stream, but I'm not complaining for the price.
Sky via NOW TV. F1TV isn’t available in the U.K. :(
McLaren need to use both cars around the pit stops to try get past Max again.
I think they’ll be focused on staying 2-3 rather than gambling for 1st. Max is inevitable.
No more overtakes anyone?
I want to see the weather radar to get an idea what the chances for rain are
What are people’s thoughts on always having laps 3-5ish being dedicated to replaying the start?
on f1tv you get split screen view. so it does not bother me.
Ah that must be nice. It always seems weird to me that they cut away as soon as DRS becomes enabled.
yea I remember happening before f1tv when I viewed it on normal tv. Was really annoying.
Epic first lap! Anyone know if that’s just water splashing up when they clip the kerbs?
some drivers are reporting rain.
Why hards for Sainz Ferrari?
One stop will probably be faster than a two stop as far as I understand.
Not sure about Leclerc's defending earlier, but it'd a nice fun battle.
The softs have not worked for George.
well at least those tires seem to be holding on alright
Hamilton not catching the Ferraris since he passed Alonso.
Is this new compound affecting AM and RBR's pace? Can see the rain falling in the distance!
What's going on with Aston Martin? They're struggling and they had such a good start of the season.
Mercedes, Ferrari, and McLaren all brought pretty major upgrades in the last few races and AM haven’t. It’ll be interesting to see if they can cling on for the rest of the season. In situations like this the cost cap might make things less competitive since the established teams have such better facilities.
I completely forgot about upgrades.
so plan B it is.
That tire difference is crazy... George just drove past.
They should do Softs on the mclarens. George did 29 laps with it.
Sainz just going backward.
This tyre doesn't feel so good = Bono, my tyres are gone.
Did Lewis just get old softs though? They definitely weren't shiny.
George started on used softs.
they are like 3 laps „old“
yeah I don't think anyone still had new set of softs
I think Max is the only one with one new set of softs. He did one less run in qualifying.
This is why I'm confused. The tire age graphic says Max' and Lewis' tires are used both the same age.
Max used both his new softs in Q3. Nobody in top 10 had new softs
Must have missed that, the tire age graphics agree. But I find that's not that reliable.
What happened to the Ferrari engine this weekend!?
What a fight for p2
Well I guess it's going to be VER, HAM, RUS for the podium...
What is happening to Carlos?
Stewards really gets a hard on every time they hand out a track limit warning.
