gonna need a replay stream. I can get up at 6am, but not 4 :pokerface:

although i will try to surface a little before 6 for the le mans checkered flag

4am start time, that's a no from me dawg.

I just can't help myself watching the highlights on YouTube. And if the highlights end up being good, then.ill watch the replay in its entirety.

100% positive Stroll is gonna crash in the race

Both Ferraris gone WOW

Man Perez can actually compete for 1st, been saying it he's got a great chance at the WDC, RB should stop giving orders its only fair

Hamiltons back must kill, I'm surprised he's standing and doing interviews

Ferrari, wow and Binottos inspiring words of "we didn't expect to compete this season" just really doesn't bode well

Great performance by Hamilton. I thought had a chance for podium but that would be a long shot.

Yeah Mercedes are doing "horrible" yet they've got third best team pretty well set, and will probably end up second by the end of the season if Ferrari keeps dropping the ball

Ferrari gonna Ferrari

Also lol Alpha Tauri breaking out the duct tape for the rear wing.

being a Ferrari fanboy.... ai....welp

I guess its still race 8, a lot can still happen....

Here's a full replay on the race for the folks who couldn't wake up at 4am to watch.

I ended up watching the race live stream because my daughter was snoring :lawl:

The Ferrari engines having all sorts of issues..and seemingly different issues as well

Bottas is already on his 3rd engine I think they said at the beggining? What a waste if it’s reliability issues keeping the fastest car off the podium.

As much as I don’t like Russel gotta give it to him for his consistency, guy can drive that car

What's the deal with Russel?

As a smooth operator fan, this season has been FeelsBadMan

I am honestly pleasantly surprised at Russel's personality. He is very humble when it comes to Hamilton, which is great because it shows that he has a lot of respect for his teammate.

When Russel first announced for Mercedes, I thought he was going to be a cocky prick, I was proven wrong.

Well.. he definitely does give off that arrogant English vibe to me lol

I think he’s kinda staying more low key given his performance over Lewis, hard to be the whiner when you’re topping the goat

He didn't complain much at Williams, so I def don't see the arrogance in him.

came to say this - not just from the tv show either. in several interviews he talked about how amazing it was to be british and drive for Frank Williams.

i like him - i think he's doing a good job (again) at driving a mediocre car as well as he can.

was really hoping for any kind of RB mistake to move him up - but the podium is still great.

I don't understand the hate for GR either, he's doing a good job in the Merc.

I think its just because Russel is too pretty of a man and Honda doesn't like it coz it gives him uncomfortable feelings he doesn't want to have.

My boy toy is Charles

Only reason I don't like Russel is in DTS he was eating fucking sushi with a fork. You can drive at that level, just learn to eat with two sticks.

Typical English lol

I mean him almost killing bottas and then blaming bot for the accident and slapping him was a bit douchey

Nothing compared to fork sushi.

Exciting quali so far! Very little stoppages but some crazy results.

Ricciardo continuing his strong finish from Baku and getting into Q3.

Both Haas into Q3!

Alonso killing it in the wet.

Only disappointment was Aston dropping off so significantly between FP3 and Quali.

Track getting drier and faster by the lap.

Alonso front row!!!
