Wow we need rain every weekend. This qualifying is nuts

I know that this post is for the full weekend. Could we still have a separate race discussion? I think this would make it a bit better to kepp an overview.

Max for the first time this season had to push to not get caught. Alonso and later Hamilton with the mediums had practically the same pace as him. It was a shame that Alonso didn’t had a new set of medium tyres and the issues with the rear brakes, he was faster than Hamilton when they had the same compound. The 33 is coming. 😎 Russell made a good comeback after the crash, having to retire the car was very harsh after all he did to get into the points again.

What a race by Alex Albon in that tractor, surely noone else is DotD?

🟥 Red flag. Gasly stopped on track, with a broken driveshaft

RIP Ferrari engine :(

Hulkenfire!

Sainz vs Perez was fun.

Is this the "official" race discussion thread? I couldn't find anything on my instance so came here.

Great race start by the way. Should be a good one. Enjoy!

I really want to like de Vries but he's so shit.

Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs

Decent race if you ignore P1. Good overtakes and battles all over the grid.

My first race weekend in the fediverse was pretty nice. Still lots to improve like the experience of refreshing the page and getting comments from other instances in a timely manner but it was fun.

See you next time 😊.

Alonso has to lift and coast, and de La Rosa in the Spanish broadcast hints that he has to save fuel due to the high race pace.

Where is Hamilton!?

For those of us in Canada I hope one day we get coverage without Ads... That's my favorite part of the US GP weekends. :D

Nando win please!

What’s great weekend. Canadian GP, US Open, and the Ashes. F in the chat for my wife and kids’ TV time please.

I look forward to McLaren raising my hopes, and then dashing them quite expertly.

This has been underwhelming haha. Have they tried turning the camera's off and then on again?

Sky spending a lot of time showing us this corner...

I noticed that two teams had different orange lights outside their box. I've never really noticed it, but I wonder if all teams have their own unique light (shape, flashing, animation).

I'd they do, this should so be a feature in the game as a customisation.

Lol, Crofty couldn't wait to say red button.

How do the marshal's know when to show their flags. Are they connected to audio to F1 central?

Classic Alpine

Oh I almost forgot we were in RAWE CEEK! Came here to see that the sessions are already going to be very wet. Hope not another one gets put into red flag hell again...

lol. Both Red Bulls with inters, but it isn't raining (yet). They use them for one lap to prepare them for tomorrow. And Mercedes copy the strategy.
