Poor Lance won't be able to cope with the mental pressure of being Alonso's team mate. Vettel was a nice guy but Alonso still has that nasty streak in him and I don't think Lance will be able to cope with that monster that Fernando still is. The near Aston rear wing looked promising and the car did ...

Hungary was probably his best chance. A few more laps and maybe he could have pulled it off on a wet track on warmer softer tyres.

Ferrari

Oh dear

Really hoping for rain here. Will seperate the men from the boys.

They found a sweet spot in the setup and nailed it. Does this mean, the car is inherently an A-grade car yet to unlock its full potential?

Schermerhorn

Any chance of rain tomorrow? I'm seeing mixed reports.

Sainz the real MVP at Ferrari now.

Ricciardo will have to take a significant paycut if he joins Aston Martin

It would be nice to see Hulkenberg in F1 again but how long does he have left? He is in his mid 30s and does he even have a chance of any decent finishes in that car?

I never thought such a lowly car could ever win like that. That day, Vettel showed the world just...

Now Seb has gone, who do I cheer for now?

Schermerhorn

Not surprised at all. His heart didn't seem to be in it anymore, that ruthlessness had gone and Ferrari seemed to break him in 2020 (they'll do the same to Charles eventually too) Aston Martin was supposed to be a fresh start and Baku and Hungary 2021 showed some promise but Aston seemed to fall off...

I missed the race so I am watching the highlights on Youtube. What did Sainz do wrong? I saw him pass Leclerc on lap 42 and then drive away while Leclerc fell back.... What am I missing here? He stuck it on pole, passed Max on the race restart and won the race. All in all, well deserved. The Ferrari...

Well done to Latifi getting through to Q2, this may be unfair but I wonder if Albon make a mistake on his last lap? The Astons must be truly undriveable in the wet… Astons were fine in Canada FP2 and FP3 in the rain. The team bodged the tyre pressures and the car was awful. Probably similar today.

Schermerhorn

Aston Martin look awful today

Last time in Canada they put the wrong tyre pressures on their car. I wonder how they bodged it today.

Schermerhorn

Why the heck didn't did Vettel pit?

Aston balls it up again! Idiots

Schermerhorn

Fernando and Vettel turning back the clock.

Reminds me of 2010-2012.

Now all I need is Bitcoin to be at those same prices again

Schermerhorn

2012 DNF's skew it in favour of Rosberg. Their last season together was mighty closely matched.

Overall though, Rosberg beat him handily but Schumacher didn't exactly disgrace himself. Three years out, coming back super rusty and a wonky neck, what did people expect?

Schermerhorn

Ricciardo may still take confidence from this race. He seems quicker than Norris today.

Schermerhorn

Bye bye championship for Ferrari

Schermerhorn

The top 2 teams are in a class of their own. More than 1sec different to the next car 8O . Sainz is trying too hard IMO, Charles seems pretty much invincible in qualifying. I think Vettel is also doing well. He was good in Monaco as well. Perez didnt get the tow but neither did Leclerc tbh. 1st and...

Wow, just one tenth off last year's pole time!

Alonso the old fox pulling a Rosberg at Monaco

Always switched on.

Baku looks stunning.

It reminds me of a street circuit from the Gran Turismo games.

The sport is run by Mumsnet it seems

It looks brighter now and its raining less....

I'll catch the highlights. This seems to be a waste of an afternoon.

Schermerhorn

Perhaps they need to do something about F1 car regulations. Raising the minimum ride height would help reduce aquaplaning. If the extreme wet tyres are up to the job, they need changing. As Brundle is hinting at, the throttle is under the driver's control. If they press it too hard, that's their pr...

There have been wetter races than this at Monaco.

It wouldnt surprise me. Shambles.

Verstappen
Leclerc = Hamilton
Norris = Russell
Sainz = Perez = Bottas

In this order

I personally still rate Vettel and Alonso higher than the Sainz/Perez/Bottas group.

Schermerhorn

Not nice but the truth hurts. And it's clear no one is feeling it more than DR himself. Takes a lot to stop that smile. What the key for me in all this is Norris doing so much better. I could see Norris being good enough to have an edge over Ricciardo, but not this much. He can't be THAT good - a g...

Cracking lap by Charles, Max should win though.

They're handing it on a plate to Ferrari.

No wonder Red Bull are thinking further to appeal against Aston Martin: https://i.imgur.com/T5qnhhc.jpg Source - Imgur They need not bother. Looks like Aston have just wrote-copied and not even understood how to set up this car properly. Red Bull must be laughing their heads off and breathing a sig...
