I screamed when he overtook Max! πŸ˜…

Where's my mariachi theme? I waited the whole season for it! πŸ₯²

Edit: THERE IT IIIIIIIS!!!

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

It's here now!

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

They finally got it for the grid line up! Good times!

Russell: I can get podium

loses track position to Piastri

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

10s penalty for Hamilton oof oof oof.

Commencing Bearman podium hopium.

Mega chaos! Hamilton and Verstappen brawling it out. Bearman taking great advantage of the chaos and making it to P4.

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Do ducks sit horizontally?

They do now.

Never change, Crofty.

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 2 points 5 days ago

The man talks utter nonsense I love it

[–] KokoSabreScruffy@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Aaaand a 10s penalty for Hamilton.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

such bullshit. Verstappen was basically playing bumper cars forcing people off the track at the start of the race and he gets nothing.

[–] WALLACE@feddit.uk 0 points 4 days ago (1 children)

F1 is owned by Americans now. Why would the one that brings in viewers and therefore money get punished for anything?

[–] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 1 points 2 days ago

i haven't switched off a race in at least 5 years. But I turned that shit off so fast when they said verstappen wasn't getting a penalty for that crap. I don't think I can continue to watch this utter horse shit.

Why was Lando being booed?

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago

Because the social media f1 hivemind decided piastri is the good guy and norris is the bad guy

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Omg divine VSC intervention.

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I was so disappointed. You watch lap after lap Verstappen catching Leclerc and when you're ready for the fight the VSC comes out and just ruins everything.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 6 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Hey Charles deserves a smidgen of luck sometimes too

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Maybe I’m wrong, but it looked like the yellow flag in sector 3 gave an advantage to Verstappen, as the gap went from 1,1-1,2s to 0,6s right before the straight. We know how cheeky Max is with Safety Cars, or maybe Leclerc lifted more than necessary

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago

I don't mind Charles finishing ahead, I just wanted a fight.

[–] Pringles@sopuli.xyz 5 points 5 days ago

I'm extremely disappointed they didn't have the theme song by a marriachi band this year.

And as I am typing they switched to it. Figures

Wild start wew!

Disaster for Piastri.

[–] cyrano@piefed.social 5 points 5 days ago

Max doing some rally in the grass πŸ˜†

[–] DV8@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

I just hope the stewards don't decide what the consequences of all of this is after the race...

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That was a great move from Oscar, and a great display of coolness from George. Also, LOL for Kimi's request to swap positions.

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Nah it’s justified. Russel said he would swap back if he couldn’t catch Bearman, which he didn’t on both the mediums and the softs. Anything else would be unfair.

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 4 points 5 days ago

Absolutely. I was talking about the timing the radio message was broadcasted.

Big big gamble with the 2 stop. Let's see how it goes.

Norris has a mad 23s lead.

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He read it beautifully. "Had a shit weekend, might aswell help my ol' buddy Chuck."

[–] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 days ago

Softs AND mediums on the grid? Wowza.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

".. Stroll hasn't scored points here since 2017" - ouch.

Edit: "and dropping to the back of the field is Lance Stroll"

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Again doing the thing where they’re showing the popular guy doing nothing on the big screen and an actual battle on the small one. Can’t they just swap for a few seconds so the viewers can actually see the action?

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They kind of have to show the race leader cross the finish line. Annoying rule but happens all the time

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This was when Verstappen was 3 seconds behind Leclerc

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 2 points 4 days ago

If it's 3 seconds that's not too bad

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not letting the drivers celebrate with their teams?

[–] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

They've always parked up at the stadium at the end of the race.

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago

Didn’t know that. Weird

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 2 points 5 days ago

Come on, that was ridiculous.

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 1 points 5 days ago

I would like to know by how much Carlos was speeding in the pit lane.

[–] belluck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not sure this was a good idea for Bearman given Norris’ first stint and Verstappen’s tyre management skills. I think he would’ve had better chances defending on track.

[–] PrincessKadath@ani.social 1 points 5 days ago

GOOOOOOO OSCAR!
