Going to silverstone this year

 

[Grieves]

I went to Silverstone in '09. Great atmosphere but unfortunately the race was dull.

 

[Raven117]

Hoping to go to Mexico City!

And page 1!

 

[Talonz]

Whelp, I started watching the Netflix series, and now I'm really pumped to watch the race this weekend! lol

Whelp, I started watching the Netflix series, and now I'm really pumped to watch the race this weekend! lol

Same there are aspects of the series that I really don’t like but it got me really amped up to watch the 22 season. Looking forward to the technical regulation shake up too.

 

[Digity]

Will goto Canada race if they don’t cancel it again.

[lukilladog]

People were saying that Toto would not allow Russell to fight Hamilton... but it seems like George was registered on the FIA as the titular driver lol. I knew Mercedes would not want to spoil their future... although I still have my doubts about his character, the guy cries everytime he commits a mistake or falls short.

Qualifiers set to start now. Merc PU coming in low at max power.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Ferrari are back guys

Also K Mag + Bottas in top 10

 

[Catphish]

Pretty awesome stuff in quali today.

Leclerc / Ferrari at Pole?
Hamilton / Mercedes at 5th?
Bottas in a fking Alfa right behind him in 6th?
Kevin Magnussen in a goddamned Haas in 7th!?
Ahead of George Russell in 9th!!??

I never thought I'd see the day where a Haas car out-qualifies a Mercedes.

Can't wait for the race tomorrow.

Methinks this is gonna be a fun season!

 

[TheMan]

I’m here for pics of leclerc’s girlfriend

Oh and how did Williams do

Shite. One was out in Q1, the other in Q2, if I remember correctly.

 

[mclaren777]

Hopefully Magnussen has calmed down by taking a year off, because his racecraft in the past was... questionable.

 

[TheMan]

Shite. One was out in Q1, the other in Q2, if I remember correctly.

Poor williams

Really interesting to see bottas beat out Russell though. I hope he gets his revenge tomorrow, especially in car like Haas. Sad to see him dumped by Mercedes like that

 

[TTOOLL]

Excellent start!! I just wanna see Hamilton out of the top three for a while.

 

[prinz_valium]

Poor Aston Martin

 

[Shubh_C63]

I think we got ourselves a three way fight this season.
Mercs are gonna hit back hard sooner or later.

and damn that Ferrari livery looks amazing, those tyres.

 

[Talonz]

Glad to see Bottas make Q3 today. I'm really rooting for him to do well this season.

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Chinese dude is actually pretty decent so far. Happy for him.

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

After 8 years of torture, we finally have real racing at the front!

 

[EverydayBeast]

Drivers aren’t struggling with the track

 

[cormack12]

This is insanely good. Gonna be tough for max to steal that position, hope he doesn't push himself out the race with a dnf

 

[TheMan]

Ugh, there’s no way to stream without paying more, fuck rhat

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Oh yea, Verstappen's steering is fucked. It's definitely stiffer looking. Ferrari got this.

 

[cormack12]

LeClerc done well. Hamilton done well to be pushing for fourth albeit with sc help

 

[cormack12]

Called it

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Car just peaced out.

 

[cormack12]

Perez as well, oh my days. Bad day for RBR.

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Called it

Hydraulic issue.

Edit: Sounded like no fuel issue pick-up (pump), overheating breaks, some power steering issues and than no fuel pick up.................full bingo card

 

[Catphish]

[Digity]

Perez as well, oh my days. Bad day for RBR.

Love to see it.

 

[Catphish]

Massive collapse by Red Bull. Nice to see Ferrari commanding again. And Haas in 5th!

 

[TheMan]

I was hoping Bottas would Russell but in the end they both did good.
Red bull...ouch
Ferrari? Obviously spectacular result for them. I hope to see more good things from Leclerc this season

 

[Talonz]

What a crazy ending today. RBR getting zero points this weekend is insane, and they both go out with less than 10 laps to go!

 

[Catphish]

Less than 2. I believe Verstappen was out in 55/57, and Perez was out in 56/57.

[FunkMiller]

Very happy to be going to the Australia Grand prix this year. Very much hoping for a nice three way fight between RBR, Ferrari and hopefully Mercedes, if they can get their issues sorted out enough in time to at least be only a couple of tenths off the pace.

 

[Fox Mulder]

So Saudi Arabia is still a shit hole huh.

Saudi Arabian Grand Prix will go ahead after missile attack

The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix is expected to go ahead as planned after hours of meetings following a missile attack near the track in Jeddah.

www.bbc.com

BBC Sport has learned that a significant number of drivers had concerns about the safety of the event following the attack.

But eventually they were convinced to go ahead and race after being given further information by bosses.

Part of this information involved the possible consequences of not racing, such as how easily teams and drivers would be able to leave the country if the race did not happen.

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Does a missile strike bring out a safety car or just a virtual safety car?

 

[cormack12]

What time is qualifying today uk time, about 1330?

Edit: 4pm it is

 

[cormack12]

Ferrari with the immediate smackdown again
