Good luck man... Just left Vegas and man, it would be cool to see, but the headache and logistics just aren't worth it to me.

That place is a clusterfrick with just some of the strip shut down, can't imagine what its going to be like when they start closing everything off days before FP1.

ferrari fans talking about this. glad chuck is ok

After five turns during the formation lap, the electronic self-protection system detected a completely abnormal value and shut everything down. If this had not happened, if the engine had not been immediately shut down by the system, it would have exploded a few meters later.

how embarrassing it is for a 10+ year, grand prix winning F1 driver to get GAPPED by .5+ seconds per lap routinely in race and quali pace?


Didnt Danny struggle in a McClaren built for Norris? Im afraid Danny in a RB would be similar results to being crushed.

Didn't he drive the car off the track?

First it was a hydraulic issue. Now the engine was going to go nuclear.

Did leclerc just brain fart like he always does? I think so.

He clarified post race that it wasn't hydraulics, but he wasn't at liberty to disclose it. I mean, technically his hydraulics probably failed, but that was after other parts of the car failed and shut down the hydraulics.

The only saving grace is Danny also likes oversteer in his car. The McLaren thing was really weird, i think it was mental as much as anything.

Riccardo could never get the braking down with the McLaren. I know it sounds weird but it was under decel that he he was on the wrong foot.

I didn't realize how late the practice/qualifying/race is scheduled to be until I looked it up. I guess that's one way to beat the desert heat

Does a brain fart blow blue smoke out the back of the car like was visible right before he spun?

So if I got this right. It now was not a hydraulic failure, but a self protection that was of critical mass. It shut the whole thing down to protect the car from blowing up.

However, Charles was somehow able to restart the car and drive the car out of the barrier and to the safety road under its own power.

Ferrari thought that restarting and engine in failsafe was a solid idea to try. I understand they have screwed up a lot, but that doesn't even sound like something Ferrari would do.

The rumor mill has pretty much gone cold regarding Alonso to RB...

Was hoping we'd have more rumors popping up after that performance Sunday.

This is my exact thoughts as well.
