Finally less than 30 minutes to go.....I've been up since 2am and have not been able to sleep because of how excited I'm about this race 😋.... I'm way to invested in F1 this season for my own good, can't wait for this to be over and go back my neutral self lol.

 

[Rossell2]

This sounds crazy but this weekend I've had the feeling, certainly since qualifying, that I'm completely over it. Would love to see Hamilton break the record, expecting Max to take it.

I think it might be a case of got too hyped up. Situation might change once the race starts though we'll see.

I'm of the same thought. For me it's been the garbage officiating that has lessened my enthusiasm. This season has been a stain on driving standards and what is considered clean racing imo. Hard to get excited with that hanging over things.

 

[Samus]

Here we go folks.

 

[Fat Tyre]

I developed the worst dry cough just an hour before the race, the kind that makes you think you'll break your back. Thankfully I have some home test kits and came negative so I won't be worrying it's worse during the race. But damn it's annoying. Anyway, less than 7 minutes for the race + formation lap. I'm excited as hell. Bring it on!

I feel sick

can't understand how the drivers can handle this

I haven't kept up with F1 coverage much recently, so sorry if this is a daft question, but when did Ted Kravitz stop taking his meds?

I feel you man, I couldn't even handle the pressure of leading a Gran Turismo online race for a lap... The mental strength these guys have is unbelievable.

 

[evldave333]

liking the tension

 

[VulcanSpirit]

Tuned in just in time for the Channel 4 coverage... but something's a little off.

Where are Jacques and Coulthard?

Channel 4 isn't covering the race. It's broadcasting Sky's coverage.

 

[AshenGraey]

Here we go guys and gals!!! Let's witness F1 history!

 

[Blitz24]

Horrible start for Verstappen.

And forces Hamilton off at the chicane to get Hamilton to give the place back?

 

[McLaren]

Lol, Max doin the ol late lunge again.

Edit* No benefit for Max’s tactics once last time. No investigation.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Max once again proving he can't race without pushing people off track

 

[NotThePrez]

🤬 off, Max.

 

[Demon Drone]

Same old crap from Max. Didn't even try to turn the corner.

 

[GingerBredMan]

Divebombs and then stops on the track…

 

[PzR Slim]

Max is such a dick.

 

[Grayfox]

Even if the pass was not legit, Lewis has gained an advantage.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Seeing as Max had wheels over the white line on the exit, how was Lewis supposed to stay on track?

 

[VulcanSpirit]

No investigation necessary for the Lap 1 skirmish, say the stewards. The chase is well and truly on!

 

[Fat Tyre]

Suck on that Max!

 

[NotThePrez]

No investigation necessary.

 

[Demon Drone]

For once a good call by the stewards.

 

[Samus]

Forced him off 100%.

 

[HenrySwanson]

Well well well

 

[Fat Tyre]

I have some new found respectf for Masi for standing up to Horner.

 

[evldave333]

good stewarding, red bull alternate dimension this will be persecution lol

 

[McLaren]

Horner shows he’s such a huge part why Max is unlikeable at times. The RD says no investigation bc no advantage was really gained and Horner tells Max they won’t investigate his advantage he “gained”.
