As I said before,this shitty Fins on front Inside the Tyres are absolute ugly and very,very obstructive.
(also said by a few Drivers "inofficially").


I hope,Mercedes is really this "weak" and Ferrari can hold the Pace.
McLaren absolutely disappointing....

Red Bull is still "clueless"...

Really ...?

Well then,empty the Tanks,Guys,let's see how much was really left in there....
Hmm...we don't hear anything,neither from Red Bull nor from the FIA....

As a reminder, the "most exciting Scenes":

On the Start/Finish straight (Laps 17 / 18 / 19)
Verstappen had 3x "very mighty" excess Speed over LeClerc.
No other Car had that in that Race,but our ORF "Expert" Wurz of course immediately had THE Solution - Ferrari has an aerodynamically "unfavorable" car.

Verstappen had also to (unsuccessful) defend himself on the next Straight 3x with full load....

Perez would never have been able to catch up/endanger Sainz with "normal Operation" Mode,he too was going "full throttle".

Horner's Theorem
"No more petrol was pumped to the engine....."
allows for many perspectives....

Gasly was going "pretty fast" before the car burned out from under his butt...but it probably had nothing to do with the gas.

But... these are all just "guesses..."


Nice to see,Ferrari is back (really hopefully regular this time).
Hamilton has "still" the "Man in Charge" Position.
Mercedes will come back,no doubts.
(Did someone see Toto this Weekend ?)
McLaren was a disaster.....

For you - Good/better or not good due Changes in the Rules ?

- We do not have much "TV Overlays" from the Raceengineers/Teamprincipals...
- Ergo we do not have much "Pit Radio Chats"...
- Drivers seems to have much more Trouble to Race with fresh Tires...
- Slipstream Duels (except the Verstappen/LeClerc Duel) was not so much more "exciting" as predicted/promised.
- Free Tyrechoice
- Smaller "Balance/Racing Gaps" between the Cars now - Between the 1st and 10th Place only 23 Seconds

Great this stops the race director from getting bullied by Christian Horner and means we won't have bullshit like we got at the end of last season.

- Ergo we do not have much "Pit Radio Chats"...

This is a shame as Lando's radio chat was alway hilarious

- Drivers seems to have much more Trouble to Race with fresh Tires...

Good adds a bit of unexpected excitement into the race.

- Slipstream Duels (except the Verstappen/LeClerc Duel) was not so much more "exciting" as predicted/promised.

Hard to answer as only one race in but the new rules certainly seemed to have gave us more overtaking opportunity's

- Free Tyre choice

Great rule never understood the logic behind the previous rule

- Smaller "Balance/Racing Gaps" between the Cars now - Between the 1st and 10th Place only 23 Seconds

Again great it leads to a more exciting race.

tbh, it looks to me as if Charles intentionally let Max pass into T1 so he can have the upper hand into T4.
Scharl Legleg was reaching over 300kph on the main straight but was maxing out at 280/285kph for the few laps he was fighting Max.

F1 has gone behind a paywall in Holland :(
I was trying to leach of ORF but my vpn-provider was crap (Cyberghost). End up whatching a less legal crappy livestream.
I did like the race, but also missing the teamradio very much. Being dutch I (offcourse) predicted Charles to win :)

"I am very proud of my family name Hamilton, but in fact none of you would know that my mother's name is Larbalestier ' he claimed to the Expo audience

...and as long as you continue to race under the name "Hamilton", that's unlikely to change.

This is a text-book example of an empty gesture.

I know you can't read my monkey language, but as auto translation is a thing, here it goes: https://www.uol.com.br/esporte/colu...a-f1-ainda-esta-fazendo-na-arabia-saudita.htm

It is a simple reflection about Saudi Arabia GP. TLDR, it should not happen for blatant lack of security mixed with huge human rights violations. But money talks louder than the wounded and killed children's screams.

If you change location to Brazil, you can watch live for free on www.uol.com.br (it is 100% legal). I don't know if commentary is important to you, but Dutch is not an option sadly,
