F1 2020 Season

[Wilt]

That was always going to be the risk , you cant know a car like this in only a couple of days, mistakes are going to happen.

Id think the merc team would have it under control?

 

[Tiber]

Kvyat is going well, have to assume next week will be his last F1 race. Has spent the year behind Gasly, but good race tosay6

 

[Leg-End]

Is there anyone here that doesn't want Russell to win? You can't help but cheer him on!

Fair to say it would be a popular win anywhere. Imagine scoring your first points in F1 with a win!

 

[Gringo]

Bottas has no right to be in that seat next year on this showing.

Apart from his contract. 2022 Lewis and George I think will be the line up and possibly Lewis's farewell season.

 

[Hephaestus]

Bottas has no right to be in that seat next year on this showing.

Agreed. Mercedes should be buying Russell out of his Williams contract for next year after this, no point waiting until 2022.

Wonder if the sensor issue is the same one from Austria at the start of the year.

 

[Tiber]

Id think the merc team would have it under control?

Russell didn't even know how to turn the car off after qualifying yesterday, had to check with the radio

 

[United Hobbit]

Wow that laps led was surprising, thought Verstappen would have been 3rd

 

[Hephaestus]

Thank god it's the VSC not the full safety car.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Ferrari with a dreadful pit and then an unsafe release.

 

[United Hobbit]

Oh no will we get a safety car? That'll help Bottas

 

[Tiber]

Stupid from McLaren

 

[Leg-End]

Bottas is signed for 2021, he ain’t moving yet but this race alone has put him on the block.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Looks like Bottas is catching Russell

 

[Member 90887]

Russell schooling Bottas, hopefully the problem with power that he has doesn't impact the race, even though he just lost 3 seconds to Bottas since the problem appeared.

 

[elmo]

Ferrari aren't even hiding it now, why the feck is Seb's pit stop stationary time 4+ and 6+ seconds when everybody else is averaging 2+ seconds.

 

[Tiber]

Uh oh. If Perez dares to beat the team owner to a podium he might not be allowed to race next week.


Absurd that Perez won't have a drive next year

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Perez is having a good race.

 

[United Hobbit]

Another wanting Russell to win, just don't do anything stupid

 

[Leg-End]

Looks like Bottas is catching Russell

Gained under the VSC I think.

 

[ArmchairCritic]

Is there anyone here that doesn't want Russell to win? You can't help but cheer him on!

He seems like a really lovely lad.

 

[Tiber]

Perez is having a good race.

What a charge from last place

 

[United Hobbit]

If I was Red Bull I'd put Perez in Albon's seat next year. Could he get a post race penalty though?

 

[Balljy]

I reckon Russell has got a problem. 8 seconds down to 5.3 seconds isn't what we were seeing before the pitstop.

 

[Gringo]

Perez is outstanding

 

[Evans999]

Get Perez in that second Red Bull. I beg

 

[Buster15]

Russell is loosing 3 seconds to Bottas. Hopefully he is just managing the lead.
Perez again driving very well indeed.

 

[Leg-End]

I reckon Russell has got a problem. 8 seconds down to 5.3 seconds isn't what we were seeing before the pitstop.

Lost 3 seconds under the VSC. But Bottas is pushing.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Russell is defo losing time, Bottas is flying after him , could this be the pressure or a engine issue ?

 

[Balljy]

Lost 3 seconds under the VSC. But Bottas is pushing.

He was 8 seconds after the VSC

 

[elmo]

Another VSC

 

[pauldyson1uk]

VSC to retrieve a front wing.

 

[Tiber]

Are they just going to keep throwing safety cars at George until he screws up a restart?

 

[United Hobbit]

Come on George, go away Bottas!

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Full SC , right choice.

 

[hp88]

Merc have fecked Bottas

 

[Gringo]

My stomach is churning right now with nerves hoping George can hold on. Which is funny because if it was Lewis out in front we wouldn't even think twice.

 

[elmo]

Wow bottas wheel was on fire at the pit.

That's his race gone

 

[Tiber]

That axel is on fire

 

[Jippy]

Wow that was disastrous.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Bottas front brake's in flames
