Bravo Lando great race.

My fear now is that F1 become what it were until last year: 1 driver wins all with ease.

English football fans are disgusting already posted in the football thread about thier other horrible actions but this is even worse. Hope Lando is OK and not too badly affected by what happen to him.

He is physicaly unharmed, thankfully. His mind will recover soon enough I believe. I have high hopes for him Saturday on that weird sprint thing.

I watched the free practice but not the quali. I left with the impression that would be extremely easy for Verstappen today. It is weird to say that, but Hamilton on P1 is surprising.

I found other thing interesting too, the nearly nonexistent gap between McLaren drivers points out for a fun sprint race on the middle field.

 

[AmandaRose]

Why the fuck has TikTok decided to sponsor a team, where one of the drivers literally isn't on social media and the other driver is the most antisocial driver on the grid, and who is only active on social media once in a blue moon

Race as usual on Sunday.

Sprint race was more exciting than I thought it would be but still wish they would just keep qualifying the way it's been for years.

Sad that George has got a 3 place grid penalty

The real impact would be in a full season. Middle field teams may be tempted to develop 100km cars from the ground up. This may lead to surprise results even on Sunday.
If this is good or not, it depends who you ask.

My opinion is worthless in this subject as I dislike every single format change F1 had since I started watching, I bet this will not be different.

 

[Alexander1970]

I do not like it.
- not really "realistic" - same "Power" Order like always.....
- Alonso was not really a Hero driving "zig-zag" in Front of every Opponent,but is shows us,one Driver can affect the whole Result of the Sprint Race...not really funny..
- IF they want a good Format/Race,then they should use FULL POWER on all Engines/Units.I am pretty sure not all 20 Drivers arrives (and have "Troubles) for the Sunday Race...)
- They should drive ALL the same Tires (soft) and all should make One Pitstop.THAT should be really fun and exciting for sure....but also REALLY DANGEROUS for sure ....Huuuuuuuuuuu.........


Has nothing to do with Formula 1...but wait,yes then it fits perfectly for today Formula 1...

Glad to see Max walking away from that one.

Both Max and Lewis should have known better.

I agree, think both could have done better in that corner, but glad to see Max walk away. Be nice if Hamilton can claw back some of the championship so we have it neck and neck going into the next few races

 

[Alexander1970]

The Penalty for Hamilton was to low...definitely....how is it possible to win in spite of a 10 Seconds Penalty....where is the point of such stupid and ridiculous Punishment ?? Really ridiculous......

 

[Deleted member 194275]

Austria was ruined but overly excessive

The Penalty for Hamilton was to low...definitely....how is it possible to win in spite of a 10 Seconds Penalty....where is the point of such stupid and ridiculous Punishment ?? Really ridiculous......

I'm not with you in that one. I think he should not be penalized at all. I don't agree with most of penalties this year.

It is just sad that Leclerc lost this one, he is by far my favorite driver.

Lewis shouldn't have got a penalty as both Max and Lewis were equally responsible for what happened.

Max should have been more aware where Lewis was in the track. And Lewis should have gave a bit more space to Max.

They really need to stop the bullshit penalties and just let the racers drive.

Anyhoo another great result for Lando and a good weekend for McLaren.

You may remember that crash:

https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/1925/video-another-race-another-grosjean-crash/

I believe it was on the same corner. No driver got penalties nor driver license points.

They are way too strict this year. Even it is not fun to see the same guy winning for half decade, I still don't like this punishment.
