FORMULA 1 ARAMCO BRITISH GRAND PRIX 2023
Happy with that. Norris in a well deserved 2nd. And 2 Brits on the podium.
36 0 ReplyMax was Max, Norris was brilliant, Hamilton drove well (and got some luck), Piastri was great, Perez again finished behind slower cars, Stroll needs to go.
27 0 ReplyI just want to say how great the growth of content and conversation has been here in just a few weeks. Let's see what the McCedes can do.
26 0 ReplyVery happy for Lando! What a drive.
26 0 ReplyUm, wtf, hards for Norris?
16 0 ReplyDamn. Stroll hitting Gasly was very unnecessary.
14 0 ReplyI’m impressed the Mclarens have been able to keep up with the Red Bull so far
13 0 ReplyVerstappen watching TV again
Edit: while doing a fastest lap, lol
13 0 ReplyI just don't understand why McLaren put Norris and Piastri on hard tyres.
Even split strategies surely after seeing how long George lasted on softs
9 0 ReplyGreat defense from Norris and Piastri, didnt think they would keep the mercedes behind them.
9 0 ReplyI can't believe how good Lando is defending himself against Hamilton... Impressive!
9 0 ReplyI don't think giving McLarens hard tires is a good idea... They're trying to play it too safe.
8 0 ReplyNorris sounds pissed, and I can't say I blame him. What the fuck were McLaren thinking?
8 0 ReplyMcLaren seems comfortably quicker than Ferrari right now
8 0 ReplyMcLaren just giving it to Hamilton I'm afraid
8 0 ReplyLove this Lewis/Lando duel!
7 0 ReplyReally strong defending from Alonso there considering how bad the Aston were here today.
7 0 ReplyI think there needs to be a rework for the penalties. You look at WEC and a penalty seriously stings. Drive-throughs costing 30 seconds, S&G being 60s. What do we get, 5s for taking a driver out? The penalties are anemic
7 0 ReplyHards is an interesting choice McLaren
6 0 ReplyMissing: the fastest lap indicator
6 0 Replyfirst time following race comments on lemmy! look forward to it
6 0 ReplyYeah...Lance will be picking up a penalty here.
6 0 ReplyWell done, Lando! What a race!
6 0 ReplyPiastri is the new Invisible Man. Sitting casually in 4th as a rookie and nobody is even talking about him!
6 0 ReplyLando leads a lap! What a start.
5 0 ReplyAs Lando's fan, this race is a joy to watch (so far)
5 0 ReplyI feel those dark clouds are just teasing us by now
5 0 ReplyHow the hell has Russell made the softs last this long?
5 0 ReplyBoxing leclerc on mediums before Russel pits on the softs 💀
5 0 ReplyJeez, wtf is that Damian?
5 0 ReplyThat was a strange anthem
5 0 ReplyWhat in the actual fuck was that anthem? Completely unnecessary saxophone is always a choice
5 0 ReplyAs always this season, I will be hoping Max doesn't win, but I am excited to see what McLaren can do.
5 0 ReplyStroll just yeeted him
5 0 ReplyHamilton's tyres are cooked now, Oscar needs to push.
5 0 ReplyDamn rough lap for Sainz there
5 0 ReplyIf Max has a "weakness" it's actually starts.
Which in his case means he's just really good at them and not otherworldly, but still.
5 0 ReplyLOL Lando's voice on the radio. He sounds pissed off!
5 0 ReplyHoly shit Alpine double DNF
5 0 ReplyPerez on softs?
Sainz fastest on hards?
Saxophone during God Save the King?
It’s been a GP of questions so far
5 0 ReplyExcellent race and so glad to see McLaren making big gains!
4 0 ReplyVery much enjoyed this race. Quite a few exciting moments throughout! Stoked for Lando too. I have a feeling with this package of upgrades it might be possible for Piastri to podium, he came so close today. Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my end to see a rookie do well!
4 0 ReplyCongrats to Lewis on second place. No way is Lando going to be able to hold him back.
4 0 ReplyOut of the last few races I think this was one of the better ones, it had several fun moments.
Also, please fix your qualifying Checo, you’re killing me here
4 0 ReplyNo further action on Stroll is a wild decision
4 0 ReplyBrundle having trouble finding people on the grid is wild, how is Silverstone so mild?
4 0 ReplyGreat race. A podium with Norris and Hamilton is something I wish we would see more often
4 0 ReplyPiastri is doing amazing, keeping close to Norris, serious shot at a podium today
4 0 ReplyFerrari pitting, must be time for some rain.
4 0 Replyfastest lap graphic not working?
doesn’t really matter this early but still nice to see it change throughout the race
4 0 ReplyA little bit of a snoozefest so far, I'm not gonna lie
4 0 ReplyAnd... It's all over
4 0 ReplyWaiting for George's radio grassing on Leclercs late move
3 0 ReplyLet’s go Lando!
3 0 ReplyWell that was different
3 0 ReplySo race predictions?
- Max
- Leclerc
- Norris
Piastri DotD
3 0 ReplyReally hoping at least one of the McLarens finish on the podium 🤞
3 0 ReplyGo on Piastri!
3 0 ReplyHoly shit what is happening? Am I in a parallel dimension?
3 0 ReplyI am ready for McLaren dominance. Amazing how this car went from piss to leading the grand prix in one season
3 0 ReplyAlpine moment.
3 0 ReplyUh oh, George is saying it's raining again 👀
3 0 ReplyLmao, Sainz forgot plan B
3 0 ReplyWhen is the just stop oil protest due?
3 0 ReplyNorris on Hards is going to win him this or completely fuck him over
3 0 ReplySafety car time
3 0 ReplyThat replay of KMag looks like his car has diarrhea from eating a curry that is too hot for him.
3 0 ReplyPrediction: Hamilton on softs is going to pass Lando on hards and then Max will have another of his infamous bad luck Silverstone inchidents and Lewis will win.
3 0 ReplyThe McLaren livery is really growing on me. They should just make that their permanent one.
3 0 ReplyHopefully Albon can make some points today
3 0 ReplyHoly shit I love seeing Lando fighting at the front. He clearly has the racecraft to do it
3 0 Replysurprised that mclaren is holding position
3 0 ReplyBeing a Ferrari supporter is more painful every week!
3 0 ReplyHAM's out of DRS, has Norris got it?
3 0 ReplyMcLaren going to catch up to Alpine in a single weekend somehow haha
3 0 ReplyKeep it steady Lando, mate.
3 0 ReplyFerrari 9-10 shouldn't be surprising but it is.
3 0 ReplyWtf Sainz going backwards
2 0 ReplyNorris is going to get eaten alive
hards make no sense
2 0 ReplyAny guesses on whether or not Ferrari manage to avoid bottling their tyre strategy?
2 0 ReplyYay, new mods!
2 0 ReplyFull SC now
2 0 ReplyGuess it’s working out for Lando with the hard tire.
2 0 ReplyInevitable but that was 4 laps more than I thought we’d get to see a McLaren leading this race
2 0 ReplyI’m so disappointed with McLaren.
2 0 ReplySo how is this formation lap with the apex car supposed to work? Will they just follow at the back and enter the pitlane?
2 0 ReplyMax 5 seconds ahead of P2 by lap 3
2 0 ReplyThis should be a fun 15 or so laps to the finish. Gonna be hard for Mclaren, id bet ver - ham - rus for the podium
2 0 Replyas usual, Max ruining the fun for everyone.
2 0 ReplyDr House can sing
2 0 ReplyMagnuson on fire! Not good
2 0 ReplyOther than a predictable finish for max this was a great race to watch. Cars were able to follow closely and battle through corners. Great finish for Norris and Piastries hope they can keep it up.
2 0 ReplyA Williams passing a Ferrari wtf
2 0 ReplyWE HAVE A RACE!
For now anyway. Love it
2 0 ReplyWow. What a start for Lando!
2 0 ReplyAre we in for some excitement? Would make a change, lmao
2 0 ReplyI hope they keep Lando out long enough to put on softs.
2 0 ReplyI bring you FIRE!
2 0 ReplyGeorge still running on those softs at lap 25 is nuts.
2 0 ReplyAny good chance for Perez to end up on podium?
2 0 ReplyOne of the few tracks where you can here the crowd without it being piped in
2 0 ReplySofts are looking durable, surprising more aren't considering it
2 0 ReplyNorris in pole!
2 0 ReplyThey have to play the radio message where they tell Gasly about the decision.
1 0 ReplySainz baby! Que haces?
1 0 ReplyPiastri holding his own against Max is quite impressive
If the Mclaren pace holds on this could get interesting
1 0 ReplyAlpine gonna Alpine I guess.
1 0 ReplyGasly out, hopefully he finds a good spot to dump it
1 0 ReplyGo Go Go!
1 0 ReplyRussell on softs, always on the aggressive strategy, I like it.
1 0 ReplySafety Car 2? MGHU boogaloo?
1 0 ReplyNorris is a bit faster than Verstappen at the moment
1 0 ReplyThe grid walk is so much fun!!
1 0 ReplyHow long do we think Russell lasts on the softs? If he makes them go past lap 22, I'll honestly be a little impressed.
1 0 ReplyPerez going for driver of the day again.
Cant win the championship so he's tanking in qualifying so he can win driver of the day every race...
1 0 ReplyTo those who are watching this on F1 TV, does the crew seem a bit biased or am I on about nothing?
1 0 ReplyI hope this rain doesn't become a repeat of Sochi
1 0 ReplyLeclerc doing good lap times on the hards, I think the C1s might be pretty good.
EDIT: scratch that he's not getting temps in them.
1 0 ReplyLess than half way through and the gap is up to 5 seconds. Still it's nice to see McLaren holding position, would be very happy if we finished like this.
1 0 ReplySeems like it takes five laps for the hards to warm up properly, as Charles is now able to improve pace.
1 0 ReplyWtf is that commentary? Zomby cars?
1 0 ReplyMax might just be managing though
1 0 ReplyRIP Magnussen
1 0 ReplyWhen are Merc going to sort out their pit crews?
1 0 ReplyMcLaren dropping back for tyre temps, maybe. That was an insane start for Lando.
1 0 ReplySainz with the fastest lap, and that's on hards
1 0 ReplyBut that was a nice overtake!
1 0 Reply3.9 seconds. Ayyyy. They need to get better at that.
1 0 ReplyWhat happened to piastri? I haven't been following very well
1 0 ReplyFerrari on hards is going to be painful to watch.
1 0 ReplyWas that a hawk?
1 0 ReplyWeather update?
1 0 ReplyI don't see how this can stay a vsc
1 0 ReplySafety Car!
1 0 ReplyWelp. Goddamn it Haas.
1 0 ReplyFull safety car
1 0 ReplyWas exciting for a few minutes…
1 0 ReplyWow! Ocon DNF.
1 0 ReplyDead Haas
Safety Car!
Max/Lando are winning out here
1 0 ReplyLol yeah I’d say engine died all right
1 0 Replyah great, the VSC lottery deciding the race.
1 0 ReplyDid Alonso miss the VSC pit window?
1 0 ReplyHaas is in a really bad spot. Super slow in the race while eating the tires and now MAG out of the race, just like HUL in the last race.
1 0 ReplyWho had a leak on the grid? Loads of sand going down
1 0 ReplyNorris just dropped out of DRS. Get ready for the gap to build fast now.
1 0 ReplyThe only way this works out for Mclaren is if the cars around them shred the softs and drop off at the end.
These new tyres look a tad more durable than the ones we’ve had so far. That might play into race strategy this year.
1 0 ReplyI wonder if the stewards are going to investigate the Hulkenberg-Perez contact.
1 0 ReplyThe hard tires are murdering Carlos atm, what a shame.
1 0 ReplyExcited! But I expect everything is back to normal after a vew laps.
1 0 Replymclaren able to stay ahead of ferrari so far
neat
1 0 ReplyThe sun coming out and warming up the track might have saved the hard tire
