Formula 1 The F1 jibber jabber thread.

Why are F1 races on Saturdays now? Not that I care much; this is the first season in 45 years of watching F1 (Silverstone, 1979, Clay Regazzoni, Williams first win) that I give zero shits about it.

It’s totally shit now.

These middle eastern races would clash with Ramadan if held on Sunday (today) so both were put back a day.

If you're looking for a new winner, then yes, absolutely. For me, the interest lies in how the other teams are progressing to catch them. Makes every race 2 races.

I've left it alone as it is fairly niche, but there's a shitload going on behind the scenes at Red Bull.... that still has some legs.....

 

[DaGaffer]

Awesome. So happy for him.

It was an interesting race, guess it was good to see a "Brit" win.

Great race today, and really shows how much closer the teams are now.... Lewis deserved the win for showing both skill and strategical awareness.... Lando has the skill, but lacked a bit of experience there, gutted for him but he'll learn.

Breaking News - Verstappen is still a prick.

Good race, shame but it looks like Russell is facing disqualification for the car being underweight.

Both Mclarens disqualified from the race for floor thickness issues - Verstappen now in 2nd, equal on points with Piastri and only 24 behind Norris. Insane mistake for the team to make at this point of the season, it'll be inexcusable if neither of their drivers wins the WDC but they seem to be trying to make it happen, individually and as a team.
