Cannot wait for the racing to resume.

Is it just one DRS zone at this circuit? Will be interesting to see how McLarens go this wkend.

rameire · 22-08-2023 9:39am

Two DRS zones at Zandvoort.

First is after turn 10 with detection just before.

Second is after turn 13 with detection after turn 12.

Hoping teams other than RB have been busy, i'd like some competition at the front for the last few races.

Jordan 199 · 23-08-2023 4:23pm

Alfa Romeo to run with an art car livery this weekend.

I hope so as well, but was there a factory shutdown for the break as well?

Either way, hard to look past RB (again) for this one, I do hope someone is a bit closer though.

That's awful. Looks like the insides of some animal spilled over it.

Agreed. Looks terrible.

Hopefully it's just a one off livery.

Frank Bullitt · 24-08-2023 7:19pm

Looks like a bit of rain this weekend also.

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 11:29am

Ah thank God we’re back racing lads. FP1 about to start now. I see Bernie Collins is back this weekend too, nice.

McFly85 · 25-08-2023 11:32am

Hopefully there’s a bit of rain to mix things up!

Expect a Max masterclass, interesting to see how Aston get on with the upgrades they brought.

Good team on 5 Live this weekend as well. Harry Benjamin is joined by Alice Powell in the commentary box while Rosanna Tennant has Jennie Gow helping her down in the pits.

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 12:01pm

Here come the soft tyre runs. 😎

flazio · 25-08-2023 12:11pm

Are those tall cranes for car retrieval? I'm getting nervous that the helicopter is going to get tangled in one of them.

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 12:14pm

Not sure, probably. Unless it’s one of those mad restaurant in the air things.

Red flag with Hulk in the wall on the last corner. Ruined Hamilton’s lap who was about to go quickest it looked like.

flazio · 25-08-2023 12:16pm

I think we're about to see one of those cranes in action (or we would if Sky wasn't on break.)

lol yeah. And those shots now from the helicopter are way higher than the cranes so all good. Some zoom they have on those cameras!

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 12:21pm

Ok Max, let’s see what you got on those softs.

flazio · 25-08-2023 12:29pm

Oh you can't say that.

SHW: Why not?

It's a Ferrari.

SHW: It's a 💩box

Reminding me of the scene in Rush.

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 12:33pm

Never got to see proper pace of Lewis or Max really there. Alonso looking decent.

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 3:20pm

Just tuned in, red flag due to Piastri and Ricciardo into the wall on that banked corner. Session over for them I guess.

Edit: that’s some packed grandstands for a practice session. Great to see.

dulpit · 25-08-2023 4:18pm

Uh oh

Hard to see but his hand looked to be on the wheel when it snapped. Oh dear.

PsychoPete · 25-08-2023 5:01pm

Lawson is with RedBull this weekend so could be a chance he'll get a drive

Frank Bullitt · 25-08-2023 5:54pm

Yup, he broke his wrist, he is out. Liam Lawson is in.

PsychoPete · 25-08-2023 6:40pm

Good chance for Lawson to show what he can do

dulpit · 25-08-2023 7:13pm

Poor Danny Ric. Imagine if Lawson goes gangbusters and does something unreal... And what are the chances the wrist would be healed enough for Italian GP next week?

Andrew76 · 25-08-2023 8:10pm

So it looks like he broke a bone in his hand rather than the wrist, not sure if that is better or worse in terms of recovery time but I’d be surprised if he’s back for Monza next week. Awful bad luck that.

I wasn’t able to paste the link directly for some reason.

flazio · 25-08-2023 9:21pm

Daniel will be on the phone to Robert Kubica and his trainer perhaps.

Frank Bullitt · 25-08-2023 9:49pm

I guess Stroll did break both his wrists and still made it back.

mickdw · 25-08-2023 10:07pm

Jesus Ricciardo having no luck.

Google says most of the healing in 3 to 4 weeks. Add a bit of formula 1 dust to that in the shape of top medical people and tech and he shouldn't be out long.
