    In other news, KMag won't be back tomorrow so Bearman gets to complete the whole weekend.

    This too shall pass.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,508 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Suits Haas just fine with Bearman taking over full time next year. He should challenge for points again too...

    Delighted for Bearman.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,508 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    I wonder it Haas encourage Kmag to stay sick?

    On the Perez thing, I only had half an eye on sprint quali - did he not get a second run in sq2 because he ballsed up, or because the team did?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,283 ✭✭✭✭Jordan 199


    Gasly makes into Q3 three weeks in a row. Good stuff.

    He seemed to be finding somne speed and rhythm to his driving - they fucked up at the end, no doubt.

    I actually am really looking forward to the 'old' Perez tomorrow and Sunday, he will pick up a few points for sure.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,508 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    And by all accounts the same happened with Zhou, he was told he had plenty of time to get around for one last lap at end of sq1 but he didn't. The difference there is that while he could have been faster, he was still going to be last.

    Wait a waste of time Sprints are. Time for them to go. Rubbish Sprint Quali and the so called race will be rubbish too.

    At least they are done for this year after this week and we can get back to proper race weekends at a proper time too unlike the stupid American race times. Wish they did not race in America. They hace got Indy and Nascar. Is that not enough for the Americans?

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Sorry to burst your bubble but Qatar is a sprint weekend as well.

    And we still have one more race in the Americas to come, Las Vegas

    Love the Sprint weekends. Wish we had more of them. Makes things way more interesting, rather than the Exact same format Every weekend. An extra quali and an extra race - what's not to like.

    Should we get rid of GP's all over the world because of 'the stupid race times' because it's not just an American thing - obviously.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,320 ✭✭✭✭Wanderer78


    prefer sprints over practice sessions, america is a big market, so its here to stay, so…



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,616 ✭✭✭Busman Paddy Lasty


    Having drinks watching the American time GPs was excellent. Long may it continue.

    We just need another weekend like the one in 2005 :) .

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Knowledge is learning something, wisdom is learning from it, intelligence thought of it first.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,508 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    US and Mexico are perfect times. Brazil is an awkward one, it'd be better either earlier or later.

    " Should we get rid of GP's all over the world because of 'the stupid race times' because it's not just an American thing - obviously."

    No because none of the other times ends up with me or anyone else who watches the highlights having to watch the race the day after. So I am OK with every continent bar the Americas and besides Brazil is ruined now too with Sprint races. Mexico and the COTA are the only good races on that Continent now and the only two I woukd be OK with staying.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Like me and alot of others, more often than not, we watch it live, so far less of an issue. I quite like the variation that racing around the world brings and the sprints weekends in general really shake things up - which is no bad thing either. Another few actually will be nice.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,709 ✭✭✭✭dastardly00


    What the fook is going on with the Sky cameras when Simon, Naomi, Damon are on screen. The camera is zooming in and out, and is very unsteady. It was happening during the sprint qualifying last night too 🤨

    10% chance of rain during the sprint, could make it interesting if it does arrive.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,283 ✭✭✭✭Jordan 199


    Time to switch over from Murder She Wrote for some sprint action.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,243 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Ferrari should have the pace, but McClaren will be better on the tyres. Add Max to the mix and this should be a good sprint…

    Perez moving up as Lewis movess backwards.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,243 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    So what does Lando mean by "I'm close"

    a bumpy track,

    or is he wanting to pass



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,908 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,243 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Lando is getting a bit unlikeable.

    Does he forget his team orders performance from Hungary?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,243 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Piastri being asked to lead the DRS chain.

    @Jordan 199 quite the eclectic combo!

    Hoping Perez actually gets going and can catch up with Lawson to renew their clash but he’s struggling a bit with the Haas’. Past one now.

    Piastri and Norris not looking completely in sync.
