They need to fix this damn circuit. How on earth have they managed to build a layout so mundane and boring without being limited by streets? It's the 'old paradigm', the era when they tried stop/go tracks, thinking it will enhance overtakings. The greatest paradox is that its the opposite. This is ...

Impeccable race for Verstappen.
Ricciardo solid also.
Otherwise pretty bland everything.

Bacus

Albon silently puts on a good race, relative.

Bacus

Hamilton masterplan: get a flatspot so he can pit again.

Bacus

Bottas could be in trouble for the final laps, he's usually not great at long stints.
Or is he taking it slowly now to preserve the tyres?

Bacus

Usual processional, sterile race at Abu Dhabi.
2022 can't come soon enough.

Bacus

he's straight? I think each driver's orientation should be a private matter.

Bacus

I'm so glad there's a non-Merc in P1. Fresh air.

Bacus

ufff, finally Max!

Bacus

What if the stewards deem Perez to be at fault for that incident though? I mean, i think he was partly responsible, but the stewards do vary their view sometimes. I would certainly blame leclerc mostly though. :lol: How could anyone not blame Stroll last week for not leaving any space but hold Pere...

Bacus

I should've had this one 'Very close in qualifying, Russell ahead in the race'.
Feel so sorry for Russell.

Bacus

well a Mercedes still won.
pink Mercs matter

Bacus

what a dramatic race

Wont even walk away with any points as a consolation. Gutted for Russel.

he might get 1 point for FL though

Bacus

he won't be getting even his first points.

Bacus

oh my god, what's going on here

Bacus

Hmm Russel isn't making too many inroads on Perez. and 12 short laps to go

Bacus

Bottas sucumbed to pressure again.

Running out of laps because of the stupid rule of letting lapped cars passed. Why do they deserve to unlap themselves?

exactly

Bacus

Is still Merc's race now, but Bottas has the first chance now.

Bacus

Oh c'moooon

Bacus

Good, Perez deserves that podium.

Bacus

If Russell wins it's a great story and great for him but I'm not utterly convinced it's great for Formula 1. I think it's great for F1, it just puts things in perspective. I don't think it's a flattering perspective from the outside. in the sense that it helps to change it in a better way.

Bacus

is Russel running away with this?

Leclerc came from way back for Perez to actually be aware of him. And it still was some half of meter inside I think.
No way Perez's fault.

Gutted about losing those 3 drivers, I was so excited for this race.

Bacus

Leclerc had it coming from a long time with those inside late brakings. It all converge into this incident. Hope he learned his lessons

Shame, now its all gonna be a showdown between Russel and Bottas. No others drivers left to challenge Merc. Sucks

Bacus

well that's a little too close for comfort for Bottas.
Its gonna be an interesting race.

Vettel also looks better than usual compared to Leclerc.

ouch

Bacus

Vettel also looks better than usual compared to Leclerc.

Bacus

Honestly, my general impression of watching F2 is that DRS is totally redundant around this circuit. If FIA wanted to try one race without DRS, this is it. What would be the point, what are you trying to prove? To make an overtaking less processional and actually involve some skill? By the look of ...

Bacus

Well well Russell.
Bottas feels the pressure.

Bacus

That was a horrific accident, such a relief he got away.

I don't have much knowledge in safety measures, but wouldn't be better there with a shock-absorbing barrier, how is it called? or a few rows of tyres. Certainly then the car wouldn't enter through barrier and split in half.

Bacus

As for Bottas he just got 'shown' again. He's good in specific, repetitive scenarios, like qualy, where with all the info, technology today he can climb up to Hamiltons pace. But where it's about more unusual circumstances where more creativity and instinct it's needed he's just... vapid.

Bacus

Vettel yeah! I'm more and more inclined to call Hamilton the GOAT now he just hits all the marks, he's excellent in every aspect at this point, it's too much. I wasn't expecting to say this so soon after Schumacher stopped. I thought Schumacher was way more complete early on, but what Ham has is tha...

Verstappen vs rest of the world Lance Stroll says hold my beer. it was most of the session(s) Stroll came at the end and stole it. On a drying track I would never take anything for granted. he was constantly 2-3 sec in front (amazing in this era) of the field most of the time, with same conditions ...
