Great race for Charles, class of the field. Max, Sebas, and Carlos all had rough weekends. Merc looked much better than expected and had a great start. George had a great race as well.

Few slow corners must have played into Merc's favor.

Dominant win by Charl, but I'd love to know what Sainz' problem was.

I think things will change a lot more than usual as the year progresses.

Or Toto told his drivers to put on their big boy pants and drive through the bouncing.

Sainz' problem was


Got his bank lap taken away in qualy by a red flag, had a hard time getting his car started after the red flag so he didn't have time for his second warmup lap, and made a mistake on tires that weren't up to temp. Since he started 9th Ferrari put him on an alternate strategy with hards at the start which proved too much to handle trying to fight with the others around him on mediums. Bad luck, poor choices and a mistake equal a shite weekend.

Yeah, turned out Ferrari had enough on the field starting on the mediums probably would have got him to the podium with a nice drive.

He looked like he was on ice at the start.

On the flip side the hards worked pretty well for Zo and Mag.

Mag said he burned the mediums off on ten laps trying to charge through the field. Tires were junk at the end. Probably should have gone for another set of hards.

Someone from Ferrari. Usually they have their name/job when they get the trophy

Uh, yeah. Hard to argue with that given how dominant Leclerc's F1-75 was.

So his car being in pieces pre race wasn't business as usual.

When both crews are working on one car less than 30 minutes prior to the race it's not normal no matter what Horner says.

Two weeks and they fight it out at Imola. Both the Italian motorsport gods and the Tifosi will be out in full force. Time for a Ferrari 1-2. A place every Ferrari fan should visit.

I fricking hate ESPN. I can’t get the replay to play on any device using the app. Every other video works except for the Aussy GP. Even the Saudi one works so it’s not a video size issue. Hate hate hate disney and ESPN.

That was an Interesting one, in a way, uneventful and fast…. Maybe because I had woken back up to watch and was out of it


Man, RB shitting the bed and Merc limping along and still beating them.

It’s fun seeing Leclerc go all out. I was nervous as shite with him wanting to push for fastest lap on 25 lap old tires and the race in the bag.
