F1 2024 Season

[United Hobbit]

The alpines are shocking

Wonder if getting his first chance in a Ferrari could cost Bearman - if he was in a Haas or something you wouldn't expect much, but if he can't get the Ferrari into a decent position/end result there's presumably higher expectations as it's the 2nd fastest car in the grid

Much better lap there from him though

What's everyone done with Perez for predictions? He likes to mess mine up...

Of course I've placed Max on pole

first lap in Q1 for Max and straight to P1

Russell warned for crossing pit entry line
George Russell has been given a black and white flag for failing to follow the race directors instructions by crossing the white line at pit entry.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Hamilton on new softs and half a second off Max's time
Russell is closer 0.2

 

[United Hobbit]

Surprised they kept Sargent - is he one of those drivers that brings a tonne of sponsorship money or something?

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Out in Q1
16) Valtteri Bottas, Sauber
17) Esteban Ocon, Alpine
18) Pierre Gasly, Alpine
19) Logan Sargeant, Williams
20) Zhou Guanyu, Sauber

There must be a reason why they kept him, he is dreadful.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Lance Stroll, P2 in Q1 just 0.079s adrift of the Red Bull.

 

[Buster15]

Well done young Oliver. Hopefully a star in the making.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Bearman under investigation
Oliver Beraman is under investigation though for failing to follow the race directors instructions regarding the maximum delta time.
To put into simple words, his out or in lap may have been too slow. It shouldn't be a sporting penalty though if Bearman is found to be in the wrong.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Red Flag in Q2 , Nico Hulkenberg stops at Turn 8 and says he's lost power.

 

[hobbers]

Talk about a delayed yellow flag, embarrassing

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Red flag: no yellow flags for Nico Hulkenberg's Haas for around 60 seconds, then race control have just thrown a red flag.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

where he stopped did it really need a Red, yellows would have been enough ?

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Think we are seeing Russell taking over Hamilton , Hamilton just does not look at ease in his car.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Bearman a bit scruffy so far in Q2

 

[hobbers]

I think we might be seeing why Lewis signed that Ferrari deal

Knew it was another shitheap. Ran out of the Mercedes copium

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Chequered flag: So close for Oliver Bearman. He stays 11th and is just 0.036s away from 10th-placed Lewis Hamilton.

 

[avgp_1]

What a special performance from Oliver Bearman almost knocked Hamilton out.

Tsunoda comfortably outpacing Ricciardo

 

[United Hobbit]

Shame would have been interesting to see Ollie in Q3 especially if he knocked Lewis out to do so

Where did everyone put him for the prediction if they've included him?

 

[hobbers]

9th or 10th I think

I had to look up that word, never heard of it, but yeah you could be right.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Out in Q2
11) Oliver Bearman, Ferrari
12) Alex Albon, Williams
13) Kevin Magnussen, Haas
14) Daniel Ricciardo, RB
15) Nico Hulkenberg, Haas

I have him in my top 10 , at 10th, I think he and Ferrari will be happy with that

 

[Balljy]

Think we are seeing Russell taking over Hamilton , Hamilton just does not look at ease in his car.

I expect that development on the car will prioritise Russell this year as Hamilton won't be there next.

 

[United Hobbit]

I put him 8th, think I've been a bit too generous!

 

[United Hobbit]

That RB is insane

 

[hobbers]

Perez you stink dude

 

[altodevil]

Such a shit season this one

 

[Buster15]

Mercedes absolutely nowhere. Very poor indeed.

 

[dinostar77]

Put a cork in it, this season is done and dusted. No-one is catching max in that Red Bull. Shame perez is so inept as his teammate.

 

[dinostar77]

Mercedes absolutely nowhere. Very poor indeed.

Lack of rear end grip i.e. down force. Very poor indeed.

 

[United Hobbit]

Both laps Max did good enough for the pole. Wow.

May as well at least see if he can do something I can't ever see being beaten and win every race. Would be better if we could at least have a more competitive driver in the 2nd RB, least we'd have a race between them

CH is lucky the team is doing well on the track imagine if they were doing badly with all this off track occurrings

 

[SilentWitness]

It's just boring as feck.

 

[Buster15]

Lack of rear end grip i.e. down force. Very poor indeed.

Understood.
But Hamilton was telling everyone how much easier the car was to drive and how much more comfortable he was in it. Hopefully it will get improved but they are miles behind RB.

 

[avgp_1]

Verstappen will just be cruising out there tomorrow.
How dominant will that Red Bull be after the updates

Yawn, another one to skip

 

[pauldyson1uk]

on track RB is unstoppable off track they are a fecking shambles.
Iam now thinking that Horner has done nothing wrong and others just want him out for what ever reason.
I wonder what Ford think of all this ?

To be honest, her being a "close friend" of jos, who hasn't seen eye to eye with Horner for years, Marko and jos being close friends screams of collusion especially after Horner tried to get rid of him last season, if I was Horner I'd send the Verstappens to the B team and make Danni Ric the world champion
