F1 2020 - British Grand Prix

Charlie-Bravo

And welcome to the new thread everyone, for the first of two rounds on British soil. The British Grand Prix. It might be a snooze fest at the front for Merc, but hoping the midfield battle gives us all a race to watch.

Weather is forecast as dry with only 10%-20% chance of rain.

Pirelli will bring the C1, C2, C3 compound tyres for use in the race; the following week is the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix, which will also be held at Silverstone, will see the C2, C3 and C4 selection used.

George Russel doing good Latafo not so good.

Inquitus

Russell and Hulk really impress in Q1!

skipper_G

Decent lap from Russell again but now he's under investigation for not slowing under yellow flags

SureYWouldntYa

Russell doing seriously good, into Q2 again, fair play to him this year

Jordan 199

The livery on the Alfa is crap.

dublinman1990

Lando needs to set a good time here before Q1 ends.

EDIT: He is on the same time gap as Sainz.

dublinman1990

Hulkenberg is gearing up for his lap.

Jordan 199

I gets me brain medicine from the national health.

dublinman1990

60% risk of rain here during qualifying.

Comon Lewis.

Maybe the best we can hope for tomorrow for Hulkenberg is that he learns enough to do a good job next weekend

One thing Brundle just mentioned how Hulkenbergs head and neck wasn't staying in place on some of the corners, probably down to lack of full F1 like training to have proper muscles ready

Have to imagine that will really wear on him during the race, I'd nearly rather see him getting respectable 7th or 8th place finishes that coming a distant 4th

Not much time to fit the car around him either. We saw the jokes yday about the seat causing his cheek to go numb.

Still hopefully we’re treated to something exciting

Yeah. This bit was explained by Ben Edwards & Billy Monger during FP3 this morning.

The 2 knobs in the headrest inside the car was causing problems for Hulkenberg during FP3. He did not have enough time to address it properly as he had a lack of time to do full training on the simulator. He only travelled into the UK yesterday morning to get into the paddock to be on call for RP. He did his test for Covid after he was on the simulator. He got the negative result & then went to Silverstone to get the lap times done for the car in the 3 FP sessions so far.

The G forces in the car was causing problems to Hulkenbergs stomach because of his of lack of sim training.

Vettel has decided to wake up as well I see.

Wasn't following last FP- he still ended up 14th or did he do something more notable?

Adamocovic

Hulk looking good for a guy rushed into the car.

Unfortunately podium is too far out of sight this weekend. Maybe next?

Faugheen

Vettel has decided to wake up as well I see.

namloc1980

Looks like Mercedes have taken off the sandbags.

pjohnson

Kvyat has a new gearbox. +5 place penalty confirmed.

namloc1980

Problem with Albon's car. Possibly power unit related. Bad weekend for him so far.

Faugheen

Chandhok saying Hulk was a tenth faster than Stroll on average on the longer runs.

That’s some going, although I don’t know if it says more about Hulk or Stroll.

dublinman1990

What was going on with Lando's car in the pits?

namloc1980

Vettel 1.3 seconds slower than Leclerc at the moment.

dublinman1990

Vettel's lap time was very poor there.

dublinman1990

There's now problems with Vettel's pedals after he checked his car.

namloc1980

The Red Bull is very skittish and seems to be a bit of a handful. Both Albon and Verstappen complained about understeer earlier in the session.

Albion's left rear tyre looks nasty. He's now going with the medics to get checked.

And Grosjean is apparently causing grief for Verstappen with interrupting his lap time.

That was a fair whack. Surprised there's just armco there if there's the potential to hit it at that speed.

Quite likely he's destroyed the Gearbox he put a huge lateral load through the left rear, could have some penalties if it needs replacing.
