    Engine problems for Stroll now


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Hamilton very slowly catching Bottas. Only need a tenth of a second a lap really.

    Norris 3-4 seconds behind Albon. Hopefully can fight for the podium.
    Or maybe Perez can make it a Merc 1-2-3

    Ricciardo engine problems, jesus christ

    Red bull should have spent more time on their own car than complaining about other teams :D

    Ricciardo goosed now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,011 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    Nothing has changed with Renault anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,675 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    Is the heat fecking up the engines?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    Ricardo gone too

    Might be, there were quite a few failures in the F3 & F2 races as well

    Which channel? ;)

    Time to get strawberry and cream served. Ah no Wimbledon either...


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,964 ✭✭✭✭PopePalpatine


    Only a matter of time for Stroll, he's plunging down the order.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,675 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    This is a disaster of a race


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Damn it there goes one car. Stroll out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭mrkiscool2


    Wow. So many failures so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,977 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    3 cars with reliability issues in the first 20 laps.

    Been a while!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    No way Hamilton doesn't win this :rolleyes:


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Back start to the season tyres-wise. Looks like a handy enough one-stop for the season-opener on a very hot day.

    Aye, piece of piss. Even funnier if they pit him first. :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,353 ✭✭✭naughto


    Grosjean will put the hanns to the wall how they didn't get rid of him I'll never no


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,977 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    That gap is coming down at the front


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,675 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    And another one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    Magnuson gone


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    3 second gap at the front.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,964 ✭✭✭✭PopePalpatine


    Ocon's onboard sounds like a blender when he's accelerating.

    K-Mag's had a brake failure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    Safety car. Good for the field to catch up but Hamilton and Bottas will tear off again

    Williams pushing for top 10 hahaha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,272 ✭✭✭theballz


    A lot of engine issues and retirement today. The skysports team reckon it could be down to cars being inactive the last few weeks. What do you guys think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    Perez nearly took Norris out

    The blender would be more reliable.


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Perez the only one to put on Mediums? Thought most would have done it. Would understand Merc going Hards to try and have less racing between their two drivers but thought everyone else would make mediums work til the end handy enough.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Putting aside my obvious bias in favour of Racing Point and Perez, that looked an unsafe release

    A combination of factors, much warmer than expected, thinner air at altitude which hinders cooling, and it's the first race of the season.

    My guess is that the engine suppliers can't provide on-site support.

    That said, there were quite a few mechanical failures in the F2/F3 races.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    That Merc GTR safety car sounds a million times better than anything else out there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,250 ✭✭✭✭flazio


    As long as Perez doesn't get a penalty, he's on mediums while everyone else around him is on hards.


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    How many sets of hards did each team have? Could have sworn there was a race with 1 set, would be interesting if they haven't had running on them already.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,675 ✭✭✭✭ACitizenErased


    Russell pushing for points here


  • Posts: 25,611 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Awful stupid from Vettel there has to be said.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    Exciting restart!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,688 ✭✭✭This is it


    So silly from Vettel


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,638 ✭✭✭deafroadrunner


    Ah Seb


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Vettel was locked up before the contact. I think that's on him
