F1 2020 Season

[United Hobbit]

Yup. Tbf to Renault - looks to have paid dividends for them in that short time.

Speaking of Max- Toto is clearly an admirer - wonder if RB and Merc could do a swap for all our sakes

Would absolutely love that to happen! Max and Hamilton in the Mercedes would be so exciting

 

[Leg-End]

SC restart shenanigans to begin again

 

[pauldyson1uk]

that was a big one, glad he is OK

 

[Jack-C20]

Will be interesting how they restart this time. At least there’s less cars.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

another red flag.

 

[Tiber]

3 red flags in 2 races.

Wonder if Albon can make up a place, the Red Bull doesn't seem strong off the line today

 

[sewey89]

Another red flag. fecking hell

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Bottas will be liking this, he will have the tow on the restart.

 

[elmo]

Shit track to be honest

 

[Wicked_Badger]

Red Flag again. 3 in 2 races after none for 3 years? Mental.

 

[United Hobbit]

why have they red flagged? The car is nicely out the way so could surely have been cleared under the safety car?

 

[ChaddyP]

You mean its not 100 meters wide and there are consequences for racing like a nob?

I love the track. Its a fantastic track. Would love to drive it. Pity that every crash = redflag

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Merc wouldn't allow it

I think they would.

 

[sewey89]

why have they red flagged? The car is nicely out the way so could surely have been cleared under the safety car?

Rebuild the tyre barrier I think

 

[Leg-End]

Christ Bottas has to win this, he won’t get a better chance. He’s a lucky boy.

 

[elmo]

Safety barrier is affected I think

 

[macheda14]

They have to fix the tire wall. If someone crashed in that same spot again there wouldn’t be as much structure to absorb the impact.

 

[Redplane]

It does all seem very fitting to have these types of shit shows in two italian GPs

 

[ChaddyP]

They have to fix the barrier. Same reason they stopped last week

 

[Tiber]

Cracking race today. I admit I do love a bit of havoc as long as nobody is injured.

Shame the race at the front is dull as dishwater

 

[Jazz]

This is like the never ending race

 

[United Hobbit]

Ah ok that makes sense re barrier

Annoyingly I now have to go out I'm enjoying this race!

 

[pauldyson1uk]

That is why its been red flagged, the car is actually on fire.

 

[Redplane]

You clearly haven't met my dishwasher.

 

[Wicked_Badger]

Wonder if everyone will keep it clean on the restart? We could end up with 10 or fewer finishers

 

[Tiber]

All Russell has to do is hold off Kimi (could get a pen) and Grosjean (who is shit) to get a point

 

[Tiber]

Yikes. That repair is going to eat into daddy strolls billions.

Do teams still build a third car?

 

[Wicked_Badger]

Pretty mental. The Italian stewards have managed to drop a Ferrari off a crane, nearly hitting one of them & now hoisted a still on fire Racing Point. Crazy.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Bottas fav to win ? He will get the slipstream at the start.

 

[Wicked_Badger]

All Russell has to do is hold off Kimi (could get a pen) and Grosjean (who is shit) to get a point

And avoid shenanigans at the restart

 

[Jack-C20]

I always wonder what happens to a car after something like this. Imagine being a mechanic and a smashed up, fire damaged car covered in fire extinguisher foam turns up and you’ve just got to salvage what you can I guess.

I wouldn’t want to be a marshal. It must be weird having to look after something which is worth millions but also looks like scrap.

 

[Leg-End]

Bottas fav to win ? He will get the slipstream at the start.

Has to be based on the first two starts.

 

[Tiber]

Get bottas out of that Merc and give Russell his chance. He has already got an extension for next year doesn't he? Total waste, even if he does win this somehow it is only because of the constant disruption, not due to racing

 

[Jippy]

Bottas fav to win ? He will get the slipstream at the start.

Did Bottas and Lewis go onto different tyres before this red flag? I had to go out and just got back to another stoppage.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Think they are both on the same.
Only 49 mins left to finish the race, should be OK.

 

[Jippy]

Think they are both on the same.
Only 49 mins left to finish the race, should be OK.

Ah yep just seen both on red softs, cheers.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

No tyre saving now, Lewis and Bottas should both be going flat out for the win.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Riccardo with a stunning start

 

[pauldyson1uk]

Lewis nailed his start, Bottas was lacking.

 

[Tiber]

Bottas doing Bottas things
