Mick is the highest paid driver in F1?


Richest driver was Mazepin

We fly from Palma to Barcelona tomorrow. We will miss FP1 and FP2 but plan to be there for the full day on Saturday and Sunday. So psyched. MrBlutarski and his wife will be there as well. Can’t wait to meet them.

Excited to see Nick de Vries tomorrow. Surprised he is taking Albon's seat and not Latifi.

I’m not, Albon has a better understanding of the car and can afford to lose out on a practice session where Latifi needs all the help he can get.

More importantly though, wasn’t De Vries rumored a few weeks ago as a potential midseason replacement for Latifi? What better way to gauge Nick’s abilities than a side by side comparison.

Man, that interview of Stroll was awkward to watch. Guy just grilling him about how the upgrades look remarkably like a Red Bull

I missed it but a friend told me the cut to a shot of the Red Bull pitwall and they were all drinking the green can Red Bulls.


ETA: YUP!

Claims they designed both pre season.

Not sure about that....

Seems a good way to completely blow cap budgets.

Of course I don’t know if all that goes into the cap or how honestly

Latifi is a bum and it's time for him to get the boot. He's going on his third season in F1, he's got 5 races under his belt in the new car and STILL just got beat out by a reserve driver with little/no time in the car. Albon is proving that the car is modestly capable of scoring points.

Was de vries really a second faster in fp1? I get beginners luck, but feel like Williams has to make a move soon. They are wasting this car with latiffi.

Doesn't Latiffi bring a lot of money and sponsorship to the Williams team?

De Vries +3.092
Latifi +3.183

So not a huge margin but you'd expect your seasoned driver to not be .1 down on a guy who just hopped in the car.

Now that Mazepin is gone Latifi is now the low man showing he doesn't quite belong. I know he's there for the financial backing he brings and I don't have an issue with pay drivers if they can show some competitiveness, not only is Latifi slow he's also had a few really stupid crashes, and with the cost cap that's eventually going to hurt.

I was looking at espn and they didnt have a time listed for De Vries but had him at like P13. Its updated now.

Ya, one tenth isnt quite as bad.

The ESPN app sucks arse.

Had to go to the office for the morning to pick stuff up when people show up.

Now it won’t let me stream practice 2 for some reason.

Edit: can someone tell me what you get with F1 Pro Monthly versus just the F1 Access Monthly? Did not see it in the App Store

I've never had a problem with F1 Pro; but it is a little redundant because I have YoutubeTV and can stream there as well.

Different commentary so you can mix up who you are listening to.

Some telemetry; onboards; archive; etc.

You can also pay for a month at a time if you wanted to test drive it.

Also, use the F1 TV app on my phone and tv at home.
