Formula 1 Aramco Magyar Nagydíj 2022

Enjoyed the onboard with Alonso. This track flows pretty well.

 

[TumeK5]

Alfa Romeo finally looking good though. Been a while.


Also, that was a bit close for comfort for Perez. Was that really off track?

Edit number 2: The stewards withdrew the lap deletion

That replay to me looked completely valid. It was close, but not over track limits

Edit: His lap was reinstated

 

[TumeK5]

Ooof, both of the Alpha Tauris knocked out of Q1.

Oof, Perez knocked out in Q2

 

[NotThePrez]

Oof, Perez knocked out in Q2

That's definitely a surprise, not helped by the stewards having a hair trigger.

Also the Crowdstrike Hamilton ad makes absolutely no sense.

 

[Jubby]

The FIA race direction continues to be disgraceful. They can't even get track limits right with perfect images. How many more have they missed or got wrong for teams? I think this is more of an iceberg, than anything.

Quite a bit of rain just missed the track by just a few hundred meters

Edit: Sounds like Verstappen is having battery issues.

Edit 2: Russell steals pole from Sainz!

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Oi, power issues for Verstappen.

 

[TumeK5]

Nice qualifying for Red Bull.

RUSSELL!

 

[Famine]

 

[Jubby]

Nice work George! I hope he can parlay that into a win.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Lewis had a DRS issue.

Nice work by Russell. Let's hope he's got some race pace.

 

[AshenGraey]

Russell on pole.....that was shocking!!! 😳😳

 

[Dotini]

Mr Saturday finally wins Saturday!

Well done.

Great effort from Russell, but Mercedes have average race pace according to the calculations. Ferrari still contenders to win this for me.
Will be interesting to see the strategy, probably will try to undercut Russell if they can't overtake in the first turn

 

[Magog]

My boy Russell showing that he is a future title contender. Next year could be his if Mercedes can keep making improvements.

 

[Liquid]

David Croft said "Guess what? The boy from King's Lynn is on pole!". Brundle is sat right next to him. Ouch.

Brundle never managed pole so I guess Crofty is right

 

[IcySlivers]

Amazing lap by Russell
Hope Hamilton gets the drs issue sorted for the race.

 

[Famine]

He's been lacking. It can't be that he's one second behind in Qualifying. The gap to Max is too large. It feels like he's already gone to summer break when summer break isn't even on yet. We need to sit down together.

Why can't they just remove Marko from the Paddock 🤮

 

[Roo]

Latifi had more purple sectors in qualifying than Russell.

 

[Magog]

Why can't they just remove Marko from the Paddock 🤮

He's like a reincarnation of Eccelstone in so many ways. If he is removed another Eccelstone will rise to take his place. There will always be one in F1 like some sort of curse.

If I'm Porsche then I'm lobbying for that as part of the deal. No way I'd be dealing with that cretin. Likewise Jos Verstappen. I bet Horner becomes a much nicer person if they both disappear.

Mateschitz would still be on top. Marko is there because Mateschitz wants his best buddy there while both sharing the same attitude from anti-semitism over xenophobic behaviour to corona denial in some sorts more or less. I still hope this deal will never happen because my Porsche love will get a very hard hit.

Not Jos! Every team is better with an attempted murderer.

In Hungary traditions, Max just went off track on his way to the grid. Missed the wall this time though.

There's a lot of rain in the area, but unclear if it will hit the track

Edit: Raincoats coming out on the grandstands. It's very windy, but not raining hard yet
