Did the commentators already mention that the williams is a rocket in a straight line? I might have missed it
GP and Max need to do couples therapy after this weekend
Shall I push on and we do some pit stop training?
Is Max bored
Look GP, no hands!
"Oh GP, it's so windy! I have to hold the steering wheel sooo tight! I'm struggling so much!"
EDIT: Leclerc also mentioned the wind was very very strong in the cooldown room. I guess Max was not being facetious about the wind then.
So GP told max that it wasnt smart to take so much out of the tire in the out lap and max decided to show him by just going 7 tenth per lap quicker than perez? lol
Let's go Oscar! Not sure how the McLaren is gonna hold up on race pace tbh, but hoping for a good result nonetheless.
Well...
I was not amused
It was great to see the sprint race post being quite lively yesterday compared to what I've seen previously around here.
Hope the pace keeps up and we get some good content here today.
Also, go Oscar! Been waiting sooo long to see my team back at the front.
Sprint races are pretty good for people that are not so much into F1, it was lively enough for my gf to be able to watch the entire 11 laps without being bored! Itโs a different pleasure, less long term strategy and more track action! :)
Max is just so good. I wonder if anyone could beat him right now even in equal machinery. I mean, Perez isn't a generational talent, but he isn't bad either. Max just casually pulling a 20s gap on him in the same car and tires is insane. And before that Max did the same with Albon and Gasly, who are also very respectable drivers.
What is happening to Max and his engineer? They seem pretty annoyed at each other this weekend
No, just a racer wanting info and an engineer knowing when not to say something over the radio. It's a, "bro trust me" kind of thing.
I agree. I don't know if it's being broadcasted more because it's in vogue right now, but there seem to be a lot of snappy comments. I don't remember hearing nearly this much in past seasons.
Let's go. Need some excitement. That snap for VER was scary.
Tsunoda up to 6th. Wow.
Do you guys think they'll retire Sainz once he falls out of points?
I'm surprised Max hasn't replied and called GP a cunt yet.
Bernard was waving his green flag with such enthusiasm! Great that Crofty remembered him, that was quite wholesome.
The cooldown room audio is so much better now, and has been for the past 3 or 4 races. I'm glad they fixed that.
It is absolutely annoying that they show me Verstappen exiting a car and show the grandstands when there is still racing going on.
Starting grid accounting for Max and Magnussen penalties

Brilliant race for Yuki so far.
What did McLaren do to get cursed with this luck.
I am waiting for VER to ask to stop for the fastest lap.
Okay, see you guys after the summer break.
Max having another FP4 Sunday.
Lol , 2 seconds Ted, from Ted.
Gasly has to be the unluckiest driver of the season. What the hell Alpine? Can he get one clean weekend?
Aston Martin is making the exact same gamble that didnโt work in Monaco
Don't remind me. That really is going to end up being Nando's last genuine shot at a win, isn't it?
Gasly extending those Softs is impressive, if the rain comes soon it could be phenomenal for him.
Nice one, Albon!
