So that Vegas course. I guess people are trapped inside that zone until course is dismantled?

Ferrari looking good again!

[StylinRed]

Dang Alonso was doing great all weekend too :/

[sonick]

Yeah that was such brutal luck with Alo. They were saying his pace could've gotten him on pole or at least the front row which would've been amazing for him and Alpine.

Looks like McLaren is finding some pace again.

According to Norris, their pace was specific to the track. Hopefully he was only downplaying expectations.

[Koflach]

it's good to see Merc has found more pace but they are still a second off the leaders.

[sonick]

Merc still managing to find points. Gonna be interesting as some tension going on between Russel and Hamilton.

Albon low key getting a point for Williams not pitting at all pretty much the entire race and managing his tires well.

Disappointed and curious why Tsunoda was so far off, pretty much dropped like a rock from Lights Out.

[StylinRed]

Merc are first in constructors fml

Red Bull wtf

[TypeRNammer]

Gutted for Carlos for beaching his car.

Then Max with the DNF.

Hi all, for anyone that missed the race yesterday, here's a link I pulled from Reddit.

It contains all the practice sessions, qualifying, and the main race, along with the press conferences, be quick with downloading the videos before they get removed.

So sad for Max, as much as you love to hate him. But having 2 DNFs now that are not his fault is.. sad and dissapointing.

Merc looking like the dark horse of the year...damn...

Big congratz to Ferrari though, being a huge Ferrari fanboy, I am just a happy camper!

Saw the video of Seb riding the scooter around, I think these guys are just acting out on purpose now for the show… these worlds get ruined when they’re “reality” shows and everyone assumes everyone they’re watching is acting normal despite there being camera crews all around them and they know what has been picked out for the Netflix show in precious seasons.

I don’t want F1 drivers to turn into actors instead of F1 drivers.

Vettel got fined for riding a scooter at the Albert Park circuit in Melbourne at the end of practice.

You see, there’s a rule that states no one can enter the track in the five-minute period after the end of a session “with the exception of specifically identified personnel”.

Seb was deemed not to be such a person, and has now been given a €5,000 fine for *checks notes* riding slowly around an empty track on a motorcycle. Because F1.

5000 Euros fine.

Pretty pathetic fine from F1 if you ask me.

I read salary wise it's the equivalent of an average Joe getting fined $7, so /shrug

Then you got Ted taking a shoey

[Hondaracer]

Wonder how much the issues with the RB power unit are associated with max’s driving? Lol I started listening to a few F1 podcasts and some interesting takes.

I gotta say, that Ferrari looks amazing coming out of a corner roaring down a straight with those massive rears

Next race going to be huge in Italy with Ferrari going like they are, can’t wait

They didn't have any issues last year and the PU is basically the same since they used their 2022 spec engine last year. Maybe they've been letting Max drive at level 11 but it's only race #3

2 weeks to go to Imola - hopefully a little segue is OK.

not sure if I'm late to the party w the vid but it's great

Seems like in both DNF’s it’s sonthing with the fuel cell?

I'm surprised how well LH can ride a bike, very good form.
