Just started watching. Saw the red flag.

Geez, hard hit for Doohan.

Chris Medland on F1TV? Huh nice.

I've gotten mail that have checks that you can immediately deposit if you're in a pinch, but when you need to pay it back the APR on them is 89% 💀

Voting rights and extra insight are fine, but I feel a "Humble Bundle"-esque membership would work well. For $x a month you get a few games to keep.

If it's being reported by Erik van Haren then it's probably legit.

The seat should've been Tsunoda's from the beginning if they can't bother giving Lawson a third race. Giving him just 2 to prove himself is immature.

If Tsunoda underperforms, who next? Hadjar? How long will this game of musical chairs go?

I understand F1 is extremely competitive, but the drivers need to be given time and support. Why spend years developing them in your driver program and signing them up to race if you're going to dump them at any moment?

In Sargeant's case, he was at least given half a season before being replaced last year.

The drivers that seem to have a good support system - Antonelli and Bearman - are currently faring better than Lawson and Doohan who are under heaps of pressure.

Good grief.

Albon beats Sainz yet again in quali. He's been doing really well so far.

VCARB drivers punching above their weight.

Bearman's quali was butchered by not sending him out again.

Lawson 20th.. not looking good for him.

Doohan also under so much pressure, making a lot of mistakes.

Yuki in his villain arc. Putting the VCARB in 6th while Lawson in the RB is in 15th.

Unnecessary collision between Lawson and Doohan.

Pretty cool!

Broadcasting team needs to fix the timings board. Been glitchy for the past few events.

Rotten luck for Doohan. Gasly was having issues as well.

Nice tribute to EJ on the Aston Martin today.

Also heads up @wes@lemmy.world, the track map image didn't embed properly. Missing a ( before the URL.

https://youtube.com/@f1forsuccess a lot of juicy behind-the-scenes info given out by him on his podcast with David Coulthard.

R.I.P.

Looks like Pirelli is affected as well:

Due to the logistical challenges for the official tyre supplier resulting from delays in freight arrival [...] for this event only, the curfew period will be reduced by a period of five and a half (5.5) hours for a maximum of six (6) operational personnel for the sole purpose of tyre preparations post tyre fitting from the tyre supplier.

I was the second worst 😭

32nd out of 33 with a score of -7.

Nice. Thanks for sharing!
