So exactly what @Redlambs was saying then
F1 2022 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
Fair play to both Horner and Max, both gave very calm interviews, both would have been fuming.
I actually dont really dislike Max, despite my salty comment before.

Max saying there was a delay when he would turn the wheel.
Good to see some exciting racing at last. Neighbours are happy, nice to see how much it matters to them and how gracious these people are.
Let's play a bit of:
Spot the difference...

You seem to have a bee in your bonnet mate.
Oh and fuel pumps need power, but you know more than me I guess. Nothing wrong with a bit of speculation, but you patrol the thread as you see fit
FERRARI 1-2, get the feck in!!!
I think an enormous amount of salt might have something to do with it.
What's all this talk about karma for Red Bull then? It's not their fault the FIA / Masi fecked up

Perez saying the engine was cutting out on him towards the end there.
Gone full cafe mode!So petty, I love it
Seems, MV winning last season really did a number on some.
Didnt watch F1 races like i used to for few years now, do you think this season will be worth of follow and watch, with new changes etc?

Thought both gave very good interviews
My 3 thoughts-
Ferrari are back
Red Bull and Mclaren have a lot to work to do
I need a Guenther Steiner reaction after that result from Kevin Magnussen.

McLaren was so bad today, what happened there?
Fixed.
But yes, as a very casual fan this has been a great start. A Ferrari 1-2, a Redbull meltdown, but most importantly there are some early signs that there might be more actual racing between a number of teams rather than the boring 2.
They did. Actually interesting to watch and informative.
I assume fuel pump wouldn't damage engine? Should be ok for red bull.
Looking forward to drivers confirming but they all seemed to be able to get close and stay close.
I don't think so, atleast probably not the first third of the season. Today's race was absolutely boring really, except for the end and 1-2 moments in the beginning. There is a good chance you will find more entertainment in this thread though.
Very calm, collected and level-headed.
I imagine most fantasy teams took a big hit. I had RBR and Perez. Can't see too many having lewis.
Max sounded like he was melting down in the car. Always forget what adrenaline does to a driver.
Hot too.
I know it won't ever happen, as come the next race they'll all be back to smug/blaming everyone else, but I really do prefer these kinds of calm and informative interviews and wish they could be every week from all teams.
Happy to see Max and Horner get nothing out of today, long may it continue but I doubt it will. Will be great when Mercedes fix their issues and we have 3 teams fighting it out for podium finishes.
Hopefully McLaren can turn it around soon, two good drivers who need to be up there as well.

In the short term yes. In the mid-term I think they'll be loving these points and the huge gift they've been given as they inevitably catch up.
E10 is piss water and I don't trust any engine that runs well on that.
But they will catch up, I hope not enough to unseat the Ferraris though. The sport needs them back on top this season imo.
The hate for Verstappen from Brits is funny and pretty pathetic, it’s like you’re trying to create a persona that doesn’t exist. Verstappen is likeable (check his followers), he is interesting, he is perfect for the sport.
Have to say, this race has been incredibly boring before the Red Bulls shutting down. Hope they haven’t spoilt the sport by creating too many new things, it all seems less speedy, less exciting, a bit slower and controlled.
Props to Ferrari for creating a car that is obviously much better than the others, didn’t see that coming. Mercedes look like they are in for a really bad season, certainly didn’t see that coming.

So damn happy for Magnusson and Haas.
Yeah I’m a nice guy trust me ask my friends.
Mazepin must be absolutely raging knowing Haas used him to help finance a great car while he had to drive the worst car on the grid in the meantime, and then they just binned him when the great car was ready
Pros:
Red Bull in the mud
Hamilton podium
Haas and Alfa Romeo competitive
Cons:
Mclaren buried deep beneath the mud
Gonna be a miserable season for Seb

You don’t have to be British to dislike Max, there are plenty of reasons. The sun doesn’t shine out of his arse you know.
If you don't like the driver I like you're pathetic.
How does followers translate to being likable? Luiz Suarez has over 40m on Instagram, to Verstappen's 8m, does that make him 5 times more likable?
As for the race, I didn't find it boring at all, really interesting to see how teams performed, plenty of position changes, fighting at the front, in the midfield, and at the tail end.
Yeah great race from Ferrari, impressive car they've built themselves with good drivers to boot.
And yeah I get that Merc/Hamilton fans are angry about last season but it really seems like all that anger is now being channeled into absolute hatred towards Red Bull with very one sided, petty and childish arguments. People even loving that Mercedes tweet, really? Bit rich. I had hoped this season would be a bit of a fresh start of sorts but it seems nothing's changed. On the contrary, looks like it's gotten even worse.

Watching Ted's Notebook and he said the fuel pump is a standard component shared by all teams so I guess that failure was kind of out of their hands.
So the Dutch fans never stoop low enough to boo Lewis Hamilton then.
Someone here is having a sense of humour failure.
Not always the case… just because it’s standard doesn’t mean it isn’t being pushed to its limit, being run out of spec or packaged in a way that compromises it.
