He an Max put in laps mere seconds from each other. Max was 1.4 seconds faster. That is just plain embarrassing in the same car.
Obviously don’t know the exact circumstances. But I would really expect a team like Red Bull to not be driven to panic by 1 driver. If he asked for it, then they should have denied him.
This time, I honestly can’t blame him. Being put completely at the front was the worst position to be in, and that is on the team.
The previous 4 races though, those are on him, and are embarrassing as fuck.
Well, after 2 FP-sessions, it looks like a tenth or two slower…
And the most important thing I think is that a power unit might be new for Red Bull, but not for the people they hired. They all have the experience.
If I understand correctly, that is a F2-car, made to look like an F1-car, so the aero is fucked up and the power is down compared to the other cars.
No way that that can go wrong right?
It really does not look promising then.
Couldn’t see. What happened to Charles and Lewis?
Most importantly: the banking-apps won’t work. And as a Dutchman, where creditcards are virtually non-existent, I need my banking-apps to pay my regular bills.
Car number 7…
Is that you, Kimi?

Que Will Buxton:
There are times * dramatic pause * where a team principal just has to put his foot down…
After pushing your teammate on the wet grass, you can’t expect him to not do something in return.
Sort of “collect all Merc reserves”? After picking up Nyck?
I’m going to say something crazy.
Hulkenberg.
Especially since he did not even have to push to the limit in the RBR to get into Q3. Same with Monaco, he did pushed everything out of the car, in Q1…
I think Tsunoda isn’t quite there yet, he’s still too rash in certain moments. He has improved a lot, but he still has some way to go before he can get a seat at RBR.
I also genuinely doubt if Checo will be out of the seat. Sure, he’s way behind Max, but that would also be for his replacement (as long as it isn’t Lewis or Fernando, but they won’t sign at RBR I think). RBR is comfortably leading both championships, and they don’t have to manage an intra-team battle. Must be nice being them at the moment.
But if they do replace him, I’m putting my money on Hulkenberg. He was also the other serious centender for the seat when they picked up Perez. He is driving very well in the Haas. He will know his place in the team. And to be honest, I just want to see him on the podium one day…
Or just plain old sandbagging with a lower engine-mode.
I have an issue with adding my account from lemmy.world. It accepts it, but after a couple of hours it will not fetch any posts from lemmy.world anymore. It still works great with my other account on another instance, but my lemmy.world-account will not.
To be fair: I had the same issue with Jerboa, so I don’t know if it is the app or lemmy,world. The website works fine though…
