The Formula 1 Thread 🏎

Why was Vettel so much slower than LeClerc? Do they run different setups? He was nowhere.

He had gremlins the whole weekend, there was something wrong with the break pedal

Today, of all days, he chooses not to utter the phrase “Bono, my tyres are gone!” :roll_eyes:

F1 gods are determined to keep Hulk off the podium.

Significant elbow bump right here, I think.

Haven’t watched it, but a 7m33s highlights package sounds about right - the start and the last 3 laps… :grinning:

Not a whole lot happens in the middle. it’s the start and the end that is exciting.

Glad for his confidence that the rear tyre is confirmed to have blown, rather than him making a mistake. Shame, he was devastated on the radio!!

A single 90 minute practice session for Imola on Saturday morning, confirmed. This will be a real test for the teams, as we’ve seen plenty of drivers miss out on whole practice sessions this year already, or binning it in a session. Either of those would spell disaster if your quali is two and a half hours later!

And you would think they know how fast that poor merc was going around the track - the track is just to long for a safety car these days - its just not fast enough. As much as I love the safety car, I think these guys can do the same under a virtual one on tracks where poor Bert cant be fast enough

Yea I felt so bad for him, he might not be a favourite of mine but at least he wasnt at fault.

That may not be breaking news, but rumors abound today, with a lot of speculation that Vettel signed a 3 year deal with Racing Point, replacing Perez.

In line with the FIA Code Of Conduct, Sergio requires a verified negative test result for COVID-19 before he can enter the paddock. The testing process is taking place today.

The team expects to make a decision on who is driving alongside Lance later today or first thing tomorrow morning.
