Just read that Perez wasn't let out of the pits too soon by the team, he actually ignored the red light that his team continued to show as alonso was passing. In my opinion, this should be a drive through at the minimum. Ignoring a red light literally a few feet directly infront of you and then for...

Every day that goes by it seems max to Merc is becoming more likely. For Max to say that he won’t stay at rbr if Marko is let go is huge. Meanwhile Horner says no person is bigger than the team and it seems he believes he can continue to win without Max or Newey. It would be amazing for the sport t...

Ricciardo spinning by his own accord whereas Tsunoda having a good race is surely going to put Ricciardo on the back foot when vouching for the Red Bull seat.

When you see what a talent like Bearman can do after a single practice session it makes you realise how bad Stroll is in his 7th season.

But Stroll was more committed through that corner (a la Singapore)!!!!!!!!

If Alonso leaves AM & goes to Mercedes, I wonder if Checo would take his place for 2025 at AM. Am will be switching to Honda in 2026 so Checo's knowledge of running with Honda engine & AM being his previous team where he knows most of the team could be beneficial.

A cool illustration showing the top 4 in their final qualy lap. Before the start of the final sector, Checo was behind all three (Verstappen, Leclerc & Alonso). The final sector being DRS assisted helped him surpass Alonso.

This is just outright civil war. They've worked together all these years. Seems the top head figure who died last year was the thread keeping them tied together as one bunch.

I just want Leclerc to actually try and race Verstappen into turn 1 for once.

You can say that again. Leclerc is more capable than Checo in the Red Bull to fight Max. Max will try to open a 1 second gap by lap 2 to avoid giving DRS to the car behind.

I think Horner is more crucial to the teams medium/long term success than Verstappen. Given that they can bank on winning this title and very likely the next with Perez in the car the short term takes car of itself. I'd definitely keep Horner. Yep I agree. I would change my view if it turned out Ne...

Behind Verstappen, we have a hot fight for 2nd & 3rd positions with Leclerc, Perez, Alonso, Norris etc.

The start & the first sector mayhem on lap 1 will be great to watch.

Seven front rows in a row for Leclerc. Incredible. On the opposite end of the spectrum this is Checo's first start in the top three since Spa last year (before the summer break). That was courtesy of an article at The-Race. He started second after qualifying 3rd in Spa because Max took an grid pena...

A red flag in qualy also stops the time running. The red flag has no consequence on time running in practice sessions or pre season tests.

But something should be done to keep time as a buffer to warrant less of a penalty to drivers who can run or need more running.

Bearman's lap wouldn't count for track limits but looking good for Q3.

Bearman was expectedly impressive.

I'm not sure what other solution there is, so I'm inclined to leave it as it is. I'm certainly not changing any rules now.

It's best to leave it as it is without inconveniencing you Mate.

Behind Verstappen, it should be a close contest.

Wishing sweet Sainz all the best for a speedy recovery. Good thing is there's no racing next weekend.

I believe Sainz gets replaced by Bearman here but as this is such a exceptional situation, wish we players could get the opportunity for this race to adjust Sainz (Bearman)only. I had put Sainz for third which Bearman won't achieve.

One of the drivers I feel is in a big dilemma is Sergio Perez. As like 12 others, his contract expires at the end of the year. He has to keep driving much better than last year to keep his negotiation with Red Bull alive for a new contract. The issue for him is does he focus on Red Bull solely or ev...

We could also add Liam Lawson to this. He's been assured by Marko for a seat in RB for 2025. It depends then who's out of the Red Bull stable or even F1.

For all the animosity between Jos Verstappen & Horner, do we really think Max will go to Mercedes? For the past 2 years, they're struggled to find a solution to their issues whilst Red Bull incorporated all those designs & made it work. Imo, Max needs to get rid of his father by his side in the F1 p...

Marko did say Perez wasn't struggling in the final stint. It was Perez's intent to not push too much & too hard as he had to maintain those softs for 20 laps. He did just enough to maintain about a three second gap so as to not let Sainz come in DRS position & also not push unnecessarily. I'm sure P...
