Bit harsh defending from Piastri against his teammate, but the crash was 100% on Norris. Good on him that he was quick to recognize it though, a lot of drivers would’ve been a lot less nice on the radio after that
He should defend as hardly as possible within the limits of the rules.
His teammate or not Norris is his biggest threat right now
he must have seen to many times the f1 movie trailer
Good start by Antonelli there wow. Up to P3.
Just seen the replay. That was a good move, especially since he’s still so new to F1
They aren’t going to show that trailer the whole race right? Super annoying, makes me actively not want to watch that movie.
I was wondering if that was some AR thing just for the TV audience.
It seemed way too crisp and clear a picture from those screens which are for the people in the stands. I caught glimpses of the other screens and they didn’t look that clear. Plus every time it was on it showed that exact same moment with the date each and every time.
Yeah once you start noticing the digital ads, it gets super annoying super fast. Like in Monaco with the big “screen” in the tunnel, it looked so obviously fake.
The tracking often isn’t perfect and you can see things like heat haze being cut off by the ads. There are so many ads on screen, once you notice it.
So, did Russell actually goad Max into overtaking under safety car? Or was Max just sleeping?
Because the leading driver is free to break as long as he is within the Perez distance
I think Russell was keeping heat in his tyres by braking hard and accelerating again. Verstappen was just following at a constant speed and was caught out a bit by what Russell was doing.
Though I think Russel is cheeky enough to time that maneuver deliberately to catch Max off guard
I thought Russell was ok. He did brake, but it didn’t seem egregious. Verstappen was already nearly alongside even before that, which didn’t help him
Wow, Lando very cold headed in the situation there to immediately realize that it was solely his own mistake and also say so on the radio
RIP Lando
Wow respect for him owning up right away!
Yeah I’m sorry, but I don’t see norris beating piastri this year
yeah he should n’t have push after piastri came back
Maybe. But we’ve seen this time and time again. Norris is really fast, maybe a bit faster than Piastri but he loses it under pressure
You summed it up perfectly. Except as time goes on, Norris’s speed advantage in quali is diminishing. Piastri gets the championship unless the general team pace drops
In order to do a 1 stop, you’d need to make it at least 45 laps on a hard. LeClerc and Albion are being crazy wanting a1stop when everyone’s getting more deg than they expected.
Someone hit a groundhog near turn 10. It’s in a DRS zone, might get hit again if someone tries to pass there…
Oh that’s what that was :(
If Verstappen would drive respectfully under safety car like everyone else, he wouldn’t have accidentally overtaken there.
Yeah, not gonna deny it, Russell definitely intentionally baited him into it, but Verstappen always drives dangerously close under safety car, he created the situation.
My stream cut out just after that, so I’ll have to wait to see replays and see if there’s a penalty. Could even be a race ban for Verstappen which I would find hilarious (I think he’s only one penalty point away from a ban, right?)
Would be stupid if he gets a penalty for that, look at how fast the safety car disappears. Russel braked really hard there, that was 100% intentional.
