Hopefully this time it is not the one in spanish or some other language - last week the one they aired on the app was in some language I couldnt follow and I couldnt get it to english.

Haha, typical Hamilton after the safety car ended: “I’ve got no power!” Then immediately puts up the fastest lap :rofl:

Also, it is crazy how much faster those Merc were back then. In 10 laps they built up a 15 second gap!

Just watched Charles Leclerc’s stream of the informal race tonight and it was brilliant!

A line up of the Leclerc brothers, the Albon brothers, George Russel, Lando (who rage quit :laughing:), Latifi, Herbert, Giovanizzi, even streamer Jimmy Broadbent and a few others. It was a great deal of fun to watch - the battle for first between Charles Leclerc and Alex Albon was intense

Here’s the details and driver lineup for tonight’s Second F1 Virtual Vietnam GP. And while it’s technically the virtual replacement for the inaugural Vietnam GP which was due to be run this weekend, because the Hanoi circuit is not in the game, they will be using the Albert Park Circuit again. Race starts at 8pm BST (which I think is 9pm here?)

It looks to be an excellent driver lineup too.

After the virtual Vietnam Grand Prix is over, a special F1 Esports Pro Exhibition race featuring esports gamers will follow from 9:30pm (BST).

Sure Lando would have given Charles some company at the front. But good race, was much better than the previous ones for sure. Good to see Jenson in there as well, he did pretty good too.

After watching the Team Redline races during the week, the F1 esports has some way to go to make it more spectator friendly. There is no replays, the positioning info is too small for streaming, and there are terrible sound issues with cars seemingly stuck in 1st gear regardless of their actual gear.

As a game I think it is tremendous fun, but it lacks a LOT of better features to make it ready for prime time as F1 has now thrust upon it…

See I appreciate the effort they are making but I agree, it still needs a few tweaks to make it amazing.

The racing was entertaining though! The cars all having the same specs really does make for closer contests.
