My man checo got horsefuked by latifi.

Latifi is a chit heap, dude shouldn’t be in f1

[R3L3NTL3SS]

P1. Max
P2. Charles
P3. Carlos
P4. Checo

That was a crazy race between Max and Charles the last few laps.

As much of a Verstappen fan as I am, LeClerc is such a class act, I wouldn't be mad at all if he ended up taking it all this season.

Yup...yet again Checo fked out of a podium. Never fails man. Something happens that he gets screwed. He's so under rated and deserves so much more attention, but something always happens that he falls into the shadows of all the talk.

[Rayaarito]

LMAO

Bono: "Ok, Lewis that's P10."
Hamilton: "Is there even a point for that position?"

bro's been winning his whole career he's confused. Reminds me of last season where he just grabbed P1 trophy without thinking

[Agego]

I guess winning a championship means you get to whine and cry all race long now.

Leclerc on the radio after the race "Well done Max" after Max spent 50 laps in tears on the radio.

[shmobin]

Lewis doesn't even make it out of Q1 quali. LMFAOOO


Lewis winning: It's not the car! He's the GOAT!
Lewis looking like ass: His car is not as fast as the others!


Weird...why isn't the GOAT in the top 3? Literally getting torched by a rookie in his second weekend of F1 racing. "GOAT"

Show me one person that ever said his car prior to this year wasn't fast AF. Because I want to laugh at everyone trying to make that argument.

[shmobin]

I thought it was hilarious that LeClerec outsmarted Max for the second race in a row with the DRS sectors.

So true. He throws fits about the stupidest ****. Dude was crying about Ferrari doing so well under yellow, and on the next yellow he closes a 4 second gap. Stewards comment? Of course not.

They all cry about that same chit. Only difference is the rest of the field doesn't get it blasted live during the race like the top guys do.

Do yourself a favor and go listen to the team radios during the race. You won't find one single driver that doesn't bicker about all the same stuff.

They're the best drivers on the planet who want to win and are generally speaking spoiled to some extent or another. It is what it is.

Imagine complaining about world class athletes in one of the most stressful sports out there reacting emotional in the moment. Also LOL @ not knowing how the virtual safety car deltas work. Verstappen didn't close a four second gap during one yellow flag. He was about 1,5 seconds behind before the VSC and maybe 0,8 seconds when the VSC ended. Which can easily be explained by him reacting faster to the safety car notifications.

[greenleaf]

A lot of places they race are sketchy as fk as it is. But suddenly when the sketchy country proves why it's a sketchy country they're ready to lose their chit...

LOL I bet at the end of the day money still talks...


Formula 1 drivers to ask for more input over where sport races after Saudi Arabia drama

Formula One’s drivers are preparing to ask for more input over where the sport races in future.

A number of drivers did not want to continue with the Saudi Arabian GP race weekend after Friday’s missile attack just seven miles from the Jeddah circuit.

The incident is said to have accelerated a desire from the drivers to discuss having more influence on the sport’s policy.

As Sky Sports News reported on Monday, the drivers are set for meetings with F1 bosses following the events of the weekend.

On the agenda will be the militant attack on the nearby Aramco oil facility.

You have that logic backwards fanboy.

We are watching the same races bro.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

So like I said - Do yourself a favor and go listen to the team radios during the race. You won't find one single driver that doesn't bicker about all the same stuff.

I'm not talking about just what they air during the races. You realize that's like 1% of the actual chatter going on during the races, right? lmao

No, go and listen to an entire race radio convo one team at a time.

I'll wait so you can come back and tell me I'm right. Your precious Crymilton, LeClerc - every single one of them whine and cry about all the same stuff throughout the races.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

You have that logic backwards fanboy.

What is he wrong about?

[Barteh]

Told you ****ggots last year that they were working on an evening race in Las Vegas. Well now the news is official.

[greenleaf]

Your thoughts on Vegas GP next year?

Super stoked about this. Primarily because I can be there in an hour. I will be excited to see if this can top the COTA experience.

Is the Miami circuit still happening? Stoked that the silly Netflix show has turned this into a sport that America cares about now. It sure hits the wallet hard now though.

Yeah they're working on the Grand Prix in Florida as well. Soon there will be three races in the USA.

Other big news is that it looks like both Audi and Porsche will be joining F1 in 2026.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Jesus christ you try hard. lol

Mad because you're wrong? K.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Is the Miami circuit still happening?

Yes, it has been official for a while now.
May 6-8.

Now they just need to find a US driver capable of winning races...




Is F1 now the fastest growing sport in America?

The announcement of a street race in Las Vegas in November 2023 will only enhance the series' growing popularity in the U.S.

Dunno, but it’s certainly getting more popular here than ever before.

The FIA can thank Netflix for that. Regardless of how over dramatic they made a lot of things, Drive to Survive has brought attention to F1 to a country of ~330,000,000 people for them.

Second largest car market in the world. It's better to promote F1 here than at some shthole, sketchy countries.

They're calling it the Netflix effect. I was at COTA the year before Drive to Survive was released. There were something like 250,000 participants and it was PACKED. Then the show came out and the next season had something like over 450,000 attend.

Formula 1 has never been kind to American drivers. Michael Andretti got absolutely fuked on his attempt to drive.

Bad timing and circumstances. Plus having Senna and Hakkinen as teammate and test driver respectively didn't help.
