re: 2025 Formula 1 Season Thread

All right, the TD F1 Championship results are in!

dg42.net/TDF1/race-results.php?race=22

The winner of the TD F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix is 1999 with his second win, third podium of the season, and second podium in a row.

The podium is filled out by gatorhater08 in P2 for his fifth podium, and bikerack in P3 for his seventh podium, and third podium in a row.

Here's the championship table: dg42.net/TDF1/index.php?table=full

With bikerack scoring a podium finish and pitstop not scoring at all, bikerack is our new championship leader! They are actually tied on points, but bikerack has the tiebreaker with four wins vs two wins.

sorantable scored six points and is hanging on to P3 in the championship. But gatorhater08 with a podium finish has closed in on sorantable from 28 points behind after Brasil, to just 16 points after Las Vegas.

With two podium finishes in a row, 1999 jumped from P16 to P11 in the championship after Brasil, and from P11 to P6 after Las Vegas!

With just two races left and 50 points up for grabs, the top 5 in the championship are still mathematically in the championship hunt, and the top 3 are within 11 points of each other! It's going down to the wire--the last race is going to be exciting!

The FIA makes a change to the rules specifically about skid blocks with three races left in the whole cycle and now the championship team gets a double DNF. It’s like Hollywood wrote it.

New Rule Change

Wow! What does this mean for the points?

Max and Piastri tied and only 24pts back of Lando with 2 races to go.

Standard camera angle forced someone in the F1 broadcast to finally act like red blooded male:

McLaren and Red Bull, who were fighting for the Drivers' Championship last season, were among the only teams unaffected by the rule change.

Stella said the additional wear was caused by the cars porpoising more than expected during the race.

Right, Lewis and Hulk were both DQ'd for this earlier this season.

Enjoyed the race but went to sleep right after. Who else woke up to a

*DUN DUN DUN DUN* MAX VERSTAPPEN!!!

LFG!!! Stupid Orange Papaya frickers!!!

Wouldn’t see how that would avoid the post race inspection. I think he may have had a fuel issue like they stated but who knows. Lando was an idiot from Turn 1 on the first lap. Dude can’t handle what it takes to be a WC yet.

No matter the results everyone knows and will continue to say Max was the best driver the entire season given what RBs shite car was like at the beginning.

Excited for the F1 soap opera to continue for the final 2 GPs and Sprint

Went to sleep thinking Lando might catch a DQ for fuel. I didn't expect plank wear. Is that why they were telling him to lift and coast so much?

Judging by his comments I beleive it is.
