harsh penalty , but not anything that will affect the race.

Haas seem a very badly managed teamGrosjean is so shit.
UHD is brilliant, cant argue the race has been uneventful, but of rain would have been good.F1 is beautiful in ultra HD and it’s always interesting to see the starts, but my god.... this is probably the most boring race I’ve ever seen. Not even any crashes to fuel the morbid side of it all. I know they’re working on it, but they seriously have a tough job in front of them to make this spectacular again. Barcelona GP rating: 1 out of 10. Boooo!

Feels like there are atleast 2 or 3 races like this per season. France last year was putrid, this Spanish track is never good.F1 is beautiful in ultra HD and it’s always interesting to see the starts, but my god.... this is probably the most boring race I’ve ever seen.

How does Lingard play for United? How does Grosjean have a drivers license? - the two great sporting mysteries of our time.It's rather amazing In a way Grosjean is still head of the driver s association given how much hate he gets from all the other drivers during the races
He sounded almost bored there. Just far too easy.Too easy for Hamilton
I doubt itEven hamilton is bored stiff. I could put that Merc on a podium.
Well, im glad that I was atleast able to provide you with more entertainment than the race. PutridI doubt it
Would be very close, thing is, from the looks of this race today, Hamilton is just cruising and could be so much faster if he needed to be. Verstappen is definitely a future championship winner.I agree, it would be a very good challenge for both
The new regulations have been held up as a salvation for a long time now. Is it really going to change much? There is such a gap between the teams now, hard to see that being bridged but a few new regs2022 cant come soon enough. Bottas needs to feck off. Max needs to move to Merc before long.

Yeah, I do think he gets used a little bit as a guinea pig by RB but he shouldn't be as far off Max as he is - Max is overachieving but Albon is underachieving.pitted him too early and wrong compound, from what I have heard the hards are horrible to race on.
Much maybe not but with cost cap big budget teams wont be flexible as much as they can in RnD like Merc in this era. It depends on others teams to catch up on development though. Its like RB, Ferrari, Mclaren go to sleep while Merc stay up overnight in this hybrid era.The new regulations have been held up as a salvation for a long time now. Is it really going to change much?

For me the issue is the incredible reliability of the cars, engines and systems. In past times, it was facinating watching drivers pushing the cars to the maximum and seeing the engine blowing up in a comprehensive manner.F1 is beautiful in ultra HD and it’s always interesting to see the starts, but my god.... this is probably the most boring race I’ve ever seen.

Would be a good battle for the title but Mercedes would literally have no challengers. The main thing that stops them 1-2 every race is that Max is at Red Bull.2022 cant come soon enough. Bottas needs to feck off. Max needs to move to Merc before long.
That combined with the insane amount of downforce these days keeping the cars more or less pinned on the road. Very few spin offs these days too. Unless it rains. Good for safety I guess but too predictable as well.For me the issue is the incredible reliability of the cars, engines and systems.

But similar to most modern equipment, the design technologies are so highly advanced that overall reliability and durability are extremely good.
Not a huge fan of motorcycle racing, how the hell was there no serous injuries, glad they are all OKTweet

How this missed Rossi...fecking hell. Thank god everyone was okay.
Yeah, they're filming at the moment. Short season but I reckon they will have a decent amount of content, on and off the track.Someone said earlier in the thread that the Netflix show made them appreciate the mid-field battles much more. I agree, and it looks pretty interesting again this year, now Racing Point have properly joined McLaren and Renault, Ferrari more often than not has dropped into that pack as well, and Gasly has inserted himself there. Shame there is so little coverage of that tough. Does anybody know if they're filming the show again this year?
Great - looking forward to it.Yeah, they're filming at the moment. Short season but I reckon they will have a decent amount of content, on and off the track.
