So a film crew filming with a fake team from Silverstone onwards seems really lame, wonder if it'll just be for the free practices or will they be in the race too

StylinRed 05-06-2023 01:03 PM

Perez P1

Alonso P2

Sainz P3

Magnussen P4

Verstappen P9

For the starting grid tomorrow, interesting race I imagine

Not in the race.

Starting grid should make what might have been a boring race VERY interesting.

Possible Perez taking the lead on the drivers championship.

Should be fun. Rare mistake by Max. LeClerc pushed his car probably 1% past its limit. He was probably on his way to pole

Checo doesn't have the best starts, so this could be a good race for Alonso!

How disappointing for Hamilton, yikes

StylinRed 05-07-2023 11:13 AM

Oh god this drivers intro by will I am and llcoolj is so damn cringe

Poor jackie Stewart for getting denied but hilarious that he was just like fuk all yall :lol

Wow what a move by Max

What I notice about the redbull at this track when you’re on board the car sounds like it’s still revving up and has more to give when it’s flat out touching the top speeds whereas when you ride along with other cars it’s basically bouncing off the rev limiter at the end of the straight

I thought this race was actually pretty entertaining, the RB’s had some actual reason for coverage and lots of battles behind them

Miami > Baku all day

I actually really like the Miami track

SkinnyPupp 05-08-2023 07:10 AM

Miami track is cool, and they had like 270K people there over the weekend, which is preposterous

It was a weird vibe, even though there was a lot of action, it just didn't seem very engaging. Maybe I was just distracted.

I did pretty much nothing all weekend and was looking forward to a race I could actually watch live so maybe that helped lol

The only thing exciting about yesterday's race was Max' movement through the field. Once Checo pitted for the hards and I saw that he wasn't making any immediate gains on Max when they were new, and in fact started losing time to Max that was pretty much "Max has it in the bag, this race is over" and I fast forwarded the race from there, watched the pass, and then stopped watching.

As much as I want some more competition, gotta give credit where it's due for the ruthless dominance.
I think he was making a little bit of a statement with this picture:

What's with his face in that photo, he's completely purple!

Spoon 05-08-2023 10:31 AM

Car #1 = Max

Hondaracer 05-08-2023 11:24 AM

He also set the fastest lap on lap 30 or so of the first set of tires

It’s obviously easier to set a fast lap when there’s no one in front of you, but still impressive both in terms of the cars performance and the driver

blkgsr 05-08-2023 12:00 PM

the way max moved through the field we knew was going to happen. he had DRS the whole time and the fastest car out there. no surprise it happened.

what was impressive was making the hard tires last as long as he did and still putting down fastest laps right to the end.

ok race otherwise....some decent fights back through the pack through atleast. better than Baku atleast

EvoFire 05-08-2023 12:44 PM

The thing that surprised me the most is how hard of a time Leclerc had with passing Kmag. He should be dispatching cars but he wasn't and I think it hurt his standings. Though.... I'm not sure the Ferrari had it to pass the Mercedes. Similar to last year Ferrari has a lot of quali pace, but race pace is lacking.

Body literally went purple setting too many fastest laps and sectors.

Always blows my mind to see these prices for corporate hospitality, bottle service, etc...

Teriyaki 05-08-2023 01:57 PM

It's a write off

I thought food was free in hospitality :lol wtf

StylinRed 05-15-2023 11:54 AM

Got an email invite to purchase tickets to the Japanese GP today and when I clicked on it ab a quarter of the tickets were gone, I placed some grandstand v2 tickets in my cart and while checking out they soldout -_- it'd be nice if our carts were preserved for a few minutes at least

Hondaracer 05-15-2023 05:18 PM

My wife is in Vegas right now at the Belagio and they are advertising 4 day grandstand ticket packages for $2800

That’s dependant on having accommodations at the Belagio though lol and they don’t give you pricing on the room rates
