Hopefully, has it stands there’s no catching them
F1 2026 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
We can only hope. The boost the Mercedes gets when it crosses the start finish straight is ridiculous.
Past his best. He should retire from the sport.
Mercs so fast Hamilton didn’t even bother fighting for position
So tell me how is this any different than DRS?
It is worse
that front right tyre on Max’s car looks horrendous
Would say it’s worse due to having to lift in order to charge the thing in the first place
DRS I understood without shitty graphics on screen. What a complete shit show. Back to bed!
Crap, already had coffee. Oh well.
Oscar has yet to race this season.
This is shite, 10 laps in a 4 second gap at the front
Stroll out of the race.
Both McLaren’s are electrical issues , but different issues
That will be SC
well done ferrari 
How the tides of fortune turn, safety car screws verstappen over.
Safety Car
Which are both PU related. So gremlins for Mercedes PU. Let's hope it affects the works team.
Yeah would seem that way
Think it’s an interface issue between McLaren and Mercedes.
Red bull front left smashing his wheel gun into the ground. That'll fix it lad!
2024: Ah Red Bull domination!
2025: Ah McLaren domination!
2025: Ah McLaren domination!
This should work out well for Antonelli
Impressive pits for both Mercedes and Ferrari
Colapinto to take out Antonelli and Ocon to take out Russell and at least I won't feel shitty getting up so early.
I’m not massively enjoying this. It’s a disappointment and just doesn’t feel like real racing
Russell very scruffy in traffic
Ok Lewis..
Yeah I can see where your coming from,but there’s decent racing
I could hardly see if they were racing after the SC or still holding in for the restart.
Hamilton flying
what is happening to the Mercs!?
Ferrari are looking better but they need to look after these tyres
Verstappen maybe nerfed by a crap car, but Hamilton and Leclerc are filling in for him nicely on the action front up top.
Nothing , Russell caught up in traffic
There’s more overtaking but it’s not exactly balls to the wall diving into corners overtaking. I don’t know, I just don’t like the boosting I suppose.
And then you have Russel struggling amongst people but then just cruising past them when it’s easy. It doesn’t seem right
Think the Ferrari are better at getting heat into their tyres but the power advantage from the Mercedes seems to cancel out any advantage.
Feel like this Ferrari Mercedes battle will really come alive on a high speed corner track like Suzuka
huh ? he was overtaken by Hamilton and LeClerc how is that traffic. Looks like he had trouble getting tyre temp up on the hards
