I'm a Max fan, but seriously, that overtake should have everyone in awe. I can't even comprehend how that worked.

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 7 points 5 days ago

Franz Hermann might be a good driver.

Incredible overtake.

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

Aston Martin's race has completely come undone.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 12 points 5 days ago

This is again a race where Norris is reminding me of Bottas. So incredibly fast if he doesn't have to overtake.

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 11 points 5 days ago

"We don't have a tire that can go to the end"

Oof Alonso is pissed.. but he is somewhat right, his curse has been following him for over 15 years now

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 8 points 5 days ago

He's not far off in his assesment to be fair. He is an incredibly unlucky driver. Monaco 2023 still haunts me.

[โ€“] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

huffs hopium

17 kph headwind down the main straight will make overtaking easier, surely

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Uh, Oscar is having a bad day today

[โ€“] stokholm@lemm.ee 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

And the team is consistently trying to make it worse.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

The first pitstop was on Piastri, he didn't stop at the right place

But yeah, the strategy they chose for him is bad

Albon noooooooo

I feel like he shouldn't have pitted and give up track position during SC in hopes to regain it on fresher tires.

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 6 points 5 days ago

That's going to make things exciting!

Albon in 3rd! Go Weeyums!!!!

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Shame that the VSC killed what was otherwise shaping up to be surprisingly interesting with some split strategies. Fucks sake Haas.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Iny opinion it's still interesting though. Might be less 'fair' but that has happened before and will happen again. Generally it evens out.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Hadjar driving the race of his life so far. Pit stops are generally done, and we're in the latter half of the race and he's in 5th. Hope he can at least fight off the Ferraris.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago

Let's hope he can fight off the Mercedes

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yuki literally had one job today and he failed immediately. Let's hope he can redeem himself.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not a lot he could have done to prevent Piastri from going past that fast

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

He flubbed that corner to the point he lost DRS while Piastri still had it. Maybe Piastri could have done an overtake in the round after that by being smart. But Yuki just drove poorly there.

[โ€“] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)
[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 4 points 5 days ago

Albon and Hadjar within reach of the podium at least

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Mega unlucky for Norris and McLaren. They're always choosing the wrong times to pitstop.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

If it turns into a full safety car, it will make it easier for them to win though.

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That's awful timing for Norris

[โ€“] stokholm@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago

Don't worry, the team handed him a second place.

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Full safety car, so Max will not win. Probably Norris will take it now.

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Feel like a โ€œletโ€™s make things more entertainingโ€ safety car

[โ€“] bob@feddit.uk 4 points 5 days ago

Entertainment car

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I don't think that this would happen this early in the season tbh. And if they wanted the race itself more interesting they'd red flag it for a restart.

[โ€“] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The ghost of Masi lives on!

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Letโ€™s go car racing!

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

McLaren is too much of a clusterfuck to do that

[โ€“] DV8@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I agree their strategy is still abysmal, but the car is still obviously better. And getting lucky with a safety car is not strategy. (And every top team and driver gets this advantage from time to time)

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 5 days ago

Yeah but keeping the fastest car behind the slower one is bad strategy.

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Nice Russel train going on

[โ€“] MU5T4N6@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago

Go, Lando Norrissian!!

[โ€“] Nighed@feddit.uk 1 points 5 days ago

Any weather updates? Any showers forecast still?
