Formula 1 2022

Failed to get up early enough to watch the qualifying this morning. Managed to avoid the result all day and just watched Q3 on Sky.

Such a tight result. And chuffed for Seb getting as far ahead as he could reasonably expect in that joke of a car.

What happened to Mercedes’ pace? They were right at the front in practice.

What a circuit Suzuka is though. My favourite on Gran Turismo and real world racing drivers seem to love it too.

For those who complain:

1) Lando and Max were doing a slow lap when Lando suddenly went on full throttle.

2) last season Lewis blocked mazepin doing his flying lap. No penalty and not even a reprimand for lewis.

3) in 2018 in Brazil Lewis did the same and not getting even a reprimand.

Max didn't do much wrong, it was Lando inexperienced decision to go full throttle before the turn. Rule no 1: don't accelerate unexpectedly before a turn.

You won’t find many who will agree with you. Biased to the bone. Or bitter. Or both.

Btw Verstappen stating “fck unbelievable“ was his way of relief as it could’ve gone wrong. It was not pointed at Norris whatsoever.

Horner going on about “gentleman’s agreements” ?! Lol fuck off mate. And nobody’s arsed about your kids 9th birthday party.

Norris looks really pissed off. Future world champ is Lando.

Max turns right in on him.

I’ve backed Max to an extent this season - seems to have grown up a lot this year and he fully deserves the championship - but that was a **** move worthy of Romain Grosjean on Lando today.

Also - proper LOLS for Latifi in literally getting lost on the circuit.

What a waste of space.

Seeing Jenson on Sky is nice but stirs some emotions - was my favourite driver for years. Pure class and epitomised the gentleman racer. I still think he retired way too soon.

He deserved several more world championships.

Could be plenty safety cars today .

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Complete cluster-fuck this morning with F1 and Sky trying to pave their fuck-up over.

Ain’t going to start this

No chance they get this race on. 10 mins of following the safety car for the fans who are there and then they will call it a day.

this should be great 35 minutes if no safety car gets involved!
