Fat Brown is more annoying than Torger.

Hinchcliffe is a natural broadcaster. Much more pleasant to listen to than some other ex-Indy driver.

Hinch is easily the best on either F1TV or Sky.

Just got done watching. I guess everyone saw Kmag yesterday and just said "frick it." Made for a great race today. Big congrats to Lando for finally bringing one home. I got so pumped when that safety car hit and he pitted, and then even more pumped when Max couldn't make the pass on the restart.

Caught a glimpse of the shenanigans on tv earlier and just finished the race. Good for lando.
Was hard to see how it was going to work out even up to lap 21 or higher. Pretty crazy but Max wasn’t the same dominant disappearing Max as always.
Hope this is the beginning of some parity at the top.

Bold prediction: Norris podiums tomorrow and has fastest lap.


Wohoo. I had an inclination! Won $1,200 today on these bets. Had Piastri not damaged his wing and finished Top 3, would have won $4k.

Congrats to Lando. Everyone around us at the track couldn’t help but root for him.

Yeah, he had that 3-4 second lead on the mediums, but as soon as he went to hards his performance went to shite.


I was waiting for a safety car in the last 10 laps, Max to go to softs and disappointment for Lando... Glad it never came.

So what has changed in the championship orders?

In the WCC, Alpine has finally added a point and moved past Williams to P8. Now only Williams and Sauber have not scored a point yet. VCARB and Haas are still P6 and P7, but VCARB's 12-point haul (vs Haas's 2 points) means VCARB increased their gap by 10 points (now 19 to 7).

In the WDC, Lando has moved past Sainz for P4 (though they are tied on points), Yuki has passed Stroll for P10, Danny Ric has moved up from P18 to P14, and Ocon has moved up from P16 to P15. KMag and Albon have dropped two places, and Zhou dropped one place.

In the TD F1 prediction rankings, MikeD is in P1 for the 6th race in a row. He's our own version of Max. kengel2 is in P2 for the 3rd race in a row. But after that, iwyLSUiwy has shot up to a podium position in P3, and Tornado Alley has shot up to P4.

dg42.net/td-f1/td-f1-rankings.php


The season is now 25% over! Max has "only" won four out of the six races, and we have a first time winner in Lando! So pretty good season so far!

Umm, did anyone mention that Sainz finished P4 and Perez finished P5, but Sainz received a post-race 5-second penalty, so the final race standings has Perez in P4 and Sainz in P5. Perez still crossed the line P5; he sucks.

formula1.com/en/latest/article/sainz-hit-with-five-second-time-penalty-after-collision-with-piastri

With the penalty, Sainz also almost fell behind Hamilton, but he ended up beating him on time by just a tenth of a second (Sainz +16.407s, Hamilton +16.585s)!

Sainz was being a twat yesterday. Thinks he is Lewis Hamilton all of a sudden. He must really hate Oscar. He was talking shite about him while Oscar was standing behind him post race. Hope Oscar gets him back at some point this season.

Oscar had a great race despite his position, just very poor luck. Love how McLaren is developing and progressing early in the season rather than in the end of the season like last year.

Carlos was a bit whiny yesterday. Or at least it seemed that way from ABC's coverage.

When the team has to tell to focus and stop bitching then it’s safe to say you are being whiny
