Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the Canadian Grand Prix Weekend thread.

Details about this race can be found here.

Sessions

This thread will cover all the sessions this weekend, so that's all 3 practice sessions, qualifying, and the race.

We will monitor how this goes to see if we need more granularity.

Spoilers

The rules around spoilers are not yet in place, therefore we won't be enforcing anything around spoilers this weekend. This goes beyond the scope of this thread too.

If you do not want spoilers, please do not look in this community this weekend.

The aim is to have a finished set of rules ready by mid next week.

FP2 will start 30 minutes earlier than scheduled (16:30 local, 20:30 UTC) and will be 90 minutes long.

Piastri clips the wall

🌧️ It's raining in part of the circuit

It’s not a race weekend until there’s some Ferrari drama

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

What is this race direction? We're missing albon and Norris soft lap. Who is in charge this weekend? Seems worse than other weekends.

Technical issues for Zhou, that was quick

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wonder what the issue is. Hopefully he can recover tomorrow...

With the ongoing rain, that has to be the final classification. Great work by Hulkenberg and Alonso. Verstappen delivering as expected.

Unless the rain stops before the track is green flagged again. But it currently looks like it would take more than 7 minutes to form a dry line again, even if the rain stopped right now.

This new wall in the wet is pushing drivers out on to the racing line when they rejoin.

If its wet during the race, this has some dreadful implications.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That rejoin from De Vries is kinda spicy. Hope nothing bad happens during the race.

🟥 Red flag. Ocon stopped with some mechanical issue, told to stop the car by radio.

Bwoah what a quali session. Too bad about the penalty for Hülkenberg, but still a very good result. The Q2 Albon gamble was also amazing, as well as both McLarens being up so high in Q2.

Big names dropping out, small teams rising to the top, constantly changing conditions, this is peak entertainment imo. And somehow Max always comes through and puts the car where it should be, it's so impressive.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Ferrari need to shake things up, move some of the Le Mans team into senior positions. Winning has consequences.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably just me but this thread wasn't easy to find on chrome android or jerboa, even though it's pinned?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, pinning a comment seems pretty meaningless at the moment because Lemmy doesn't seem to be respecting the pinned status.

What happened to TSU? He pitted after the first lap?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

predictions:

  • At least 3 yellow flags
  • Alonso gets mad at someone
  • Ferrari amaze us with a strategy we’ve never seen before
  • George gets upset with Lewis
  • Lewis gets upset with George
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Lewis is keeping up with Max. Oh wait as I type this he lost a couple tenths. Still, great pace of the Merc.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Perez is losing on the Ferraris with softer tyres. How?

Russel has to retire with brake issues

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Smashing into a wall must not be optimal for brakes if your car already has weak breaks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

what's going on with Ocon's rear wing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It's waving at us!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

11cm to the wall.

Thanks AWS!

"I want to win the race, mate"

Lmao Toto reenacting Alonso's steering in the pits

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Voting for Albon as DotD, he's doing well in that Wiliams.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Max just being able to laugh off nearly beaching himself on the kerb because God knows no one's catching him

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Good race. Sucks for Russell to retire after that comeback. Albon did excellent.
