There's a race this weekend?

There's an F1 GP. Considering Max' dominance this year, there probably won't be a race though

I laughed at this and then I got sad.

A fight for 2nd place is still a race

 

[Dennisch]

Good to see that no one actually discussed the results.

Can we have an round of applause for Albon for doing that with the Williams. And Leclerc for doing a Ferrari. And Hamilton for taking the fight to Max in the second half of the season.

And of course for Max for doing something incredible. Boring for the viewers but brilliant for the stats.

You didn't mention Perez 2.0 showing up after he got his confidence back

And a notable mention of the McLaren's and Alonso is in place.

Lots of rain in the morning.
It should dry up after 13:00.

Lots of rain in the morning.
It should dry up after 13:00.

Some heavy rain possible around 15:00 as well, and then more at 17:00. So start may get delayed, but that may end up with rain around the end of the race.

Over here, about 60km from the track, it's been absolutely pouring it down all morning, combined with some thunder here and there.

On another note:
Tsunoda 3 place grid penalty for impeding
Sainz reprimanded for pit exit incident, plus fine for Ferrari. On top of that, 100 euro fine for speeding in pitlane
Magnussen replaced many components and will start from the pitlane

I haven't been tuning in to F1 lately. I really hope this race isn't a snorefest.

Well, it is Zandvoort, so...

 

[phillgt2002]

Well, it is Zandvoort, so...

Yep, I thought of that lol... reserved optimism.

 

[LumpiestFish]

This pre race has been more entertaining than what the race will be .

 

[PaMu1337]

Has anyone told Max and Lando it's only the formation lap? They seem to be pushing like hell

Edit: drops of rain on the grid

 

[Grayfox]

Does max know it is a formation lap, not a race lap.
He is going pretty quick.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Wow, got wet quick. 😮

edit: Ferrari... 😐

 

[PaMu1337]

This is excellent 😁

 

[Famine]

Just Ferrari things.

 

[Grayfox]

Ferrari did a Ferrari.

 

[TumeK5]

Thank god for rain!

 

[Grayfox]

Perez just gained 3seconds.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Solid gamble by Perez.

 

[TumeK5]

Perez just gained 3seconds.

I think he gained more than just 3 seconds

 

[PaMu1337]

Zhou is virtually in second

 

[Grayfox]

Safety Car is going to come out due to them still being on slicks.

 

[PaMu1337]

I think he gained more than just 3 seconds

More like 20

 

[PaMu1337]

I could see a penalty for Max for pushing Gasly off track

 

[Bosso]

Ferrari being Ferrari in the pits and Mercedes with their terrible no-risk strategy.

 

[Bosso]

I could see a penalty for Max for pushing Gasly off track

They wouldn't do that to him at his home race.

 

[PaMu1337]

Max is flying, but it's really dry again
