F1 2021

[Dave..]

I finished it yesterday and I thought it was interesting to the anxiety the small teams are having trying to compete.
I enjoyed it.

 

[DC.]

They know themselves a win or even a podium is unlikely most weekends so success to them is different. Gasly’s win was great to see again.

I love to see the mid field teams doing well.

Episode 6 for me loving it so far

Spoiler

On the Merc episode they really don’t make it obvious of the number 2 position of Bottas. He wins the race instead of celebrating at the podium Toto is in the stewards gurning about Hamilton’s penalty then when Bottas gets back to the motorhome all the engineers have left. It’s obvious it was Hamilton’s team but **** me lads don’t make it as obvious

I didn’t even pick up on that. Dear love him, drinking his wee beer on his own in his room.

I think bottas could be a great assassin, that steely finnish look he has at times, but perhaps he can be too nice.

You Want to Know the Real Pierre? | By Pierre Gasly

For you to really understand who I am, we have to talk about the day my life changed forever — the day my old life ended, and a new one began.

Powerful piece of writing and quite interesting re Red Bull.

Thanks for posting that, I really enjoyed reading it.

what’s everyone’s thoughts on this year ??

merc ? hamilton merc engine
aston ? vettel merc engine
mclaren ? ricardo merc engine
red bull ? 2022 honda engine
alpine ? alonso future camera man with gp2 engine

 

[DC.]

Hopefully McLaren can turn it into a 3-way fight for the podium. They seem to have had a great winter integrating the Mercedes PU into their chassis and finding a diffuser loophole along the way. Ricciardo should push them on.

Interesting to see how Perez gets on at Red Bull - will he be the new Mark Webber ie not allowed to challenge the golden boy?

Mick Schumacher should impress once he gets a few races behind him. I wonder if Ferrari can shift him over to Alfa Romeo if it suits them?

Who knows what sort of form Ferrari can show. Will they still be hampered by their engine? Or have they served the FIA punishment for their cheating?

Lots to look forward to.

Merc v Red Bull. Nobody else in it by the looks of it, but behind them it's all up for grabs.

We'll see soon who is really on top. Everyone has had a few weeks to fine tune and fix problems. Test was pretty inconclusive except RB appeared to go well out of the box.

Will be interesting if that happens as from memory he wasn't fond of listening to team orders once racing.

multi 21 perez lol

 

[svensktoppen]

Oh he will be a definite number 2 at RB, that's a given. There to pick up manufacture points and not rock the boat.

Will be interesting to see how he copes with that. And what his real pace will be. Nobody else other than Max has been able to drive that car for whatever reason. Except Ric, and he wasn't allowed to challenge either.

 

[cauld1]

I think there may be a few stand out performances from Perez but he won't give Max too much hassle overall, team orders or not.

Y'all need to watch DTS-3 with the subtitles on. Lots of epic background banter is missed otherwise

 

[DC.]

Watching it once was enough

Episode 10 had episode 9’s subtitles for us!
Agreed though for the rest.

hamilton’s pearl necklace on f1 show tonight

 

[svensktoppen]

Looks like advantage RB still after practice, but very close throughout the field.

McL doing well too, that's nice to see.

Old Boys lagging behind their team mates - Vettel, Alonso, etc.

We'll see later today what is what!

 

[KHI]

It might also be that Mercedes has something up its sleeve, with what is believed to be a super-cooling system within the inlet plenum for short bursts of extra power

Taken from The Race website.
I wonder if Mercedes have used this or are they going to,if they bag pole they seem to have enough race pace to stay ahead,really looking forward to qualifying when the sandbags are discarded by all.

 

[big_pete]

Can’t wait to see what quali brings today.

Will be interesting to see what Perez can do in the RB!

 

[DC.]

Verstappen for an easy pole today. The fight for 2nd and 3rd should be decent with both Mercedes, Perez and maybe an Alpha Tauri or McLaren in there.

 

[kharma45]

What a ****

 

[carmad.]

this is gonna be a good race tomorrow

 

[big_pete]

He really is going to be trouble for Haas.

Gasley is just coming into a league of his own now, getting stripped of that RB seat has done him wonders!
