  • Checo also had a championship winning car every season with Red Bull.

    Albon and Gasly had a notoriously sensitive and tricky Red Bull to drive.

    For what it’s worth the gap between Max and Checo as teammates has not been much if any better overall than Albon.

  • Seems more like Max is clearly a cut above every other driver he’s driven against in the same car.

    We know Red Bull tried multiple times to get Lando in the car as well, they’re not afraid of fast drivers.

    Checo was just entirely overrated imo.

  • Excellent showing from McLaren!

  • I’m pretty sure the last I read about this it was an absurd concentration that showed to potentially cause cancer. Nothing a human could drink in such concentrations.

    That being said maybe that’s changed very very recently, I’ll be interested to see what their actual findings are.

    A lot of things potentially cause cancer in huge concentrations.

    Edit - From what I’ve read aspartame would be considered a possible carcinogen in the same class of Coffee. That doesn’t make quite the same headline though hah!

  • To be fair this is practice and they’ve had maybe 2 mediocre races lmao.

  • At least for the comments thing I think you have to manually click the read button on the top right of your inbox page.

    At least for now.

  • Over 1200 track limit violations throughout the race is hilarious and absurd.

    Excited to see McLaren look to have taken a very solid step forward as well!

  • Absolutely, it’s not the best season of course but I don’t find it worse than the ~6 years of Mercedes dominance really.

    The midfield seems much closer with the new regulations compared to the old ones so we actually have some great battles to watch still.

    It’s better than it has been, still not good. If you follow only for the top 2 drivers then it is definitely going to be extremely boring.

  • I can’t say I’ve seen that mentioned anywhere? He had options with teams and turned them down or wanted too much money.

    Based on what we’ve heard from Red Bull he’s off the pace in the sim as well. I think it’s just the fact Red Bull aren’t confident in his ability yet.

    Doesn’t make a lot of sense to throw him in the car with no practice in a real car for quite awhile compared to Yuki and Lawson as well.

  • As far as I’m aware Danny is not the Red Bull reserve driver. Lawson is and would be the person to take over the seat if Perez is out.

    Danny is their 3rd in line driver.

    Edit - Or maybe Yuki in Red Bull and Lawson in AT

  • what?

  • I like how this indicates there are people out there where confusion is their default state.

    Sometimes I am those people.

  • So you’re telling me there’s hope for an It’s Always Sunny and F1 crossover episode?

  • To add onto that, I think it brings to the forefront each drivers own skill at warming up the tires and the risk vs rewards of being extra aggressive for quicker tire warmup could be interesting.

  • I’ve been really looking forward to finally having no tyre blankets, could have made racing a bit more interesting and added another important dynamic to driver skill.

    It’s a shame they seem against it.

  • I’ve been enjoying using the app, once the ability to sort comments and search for communities is added it’ll cover all my bases for a main app.

    The dev seems be busy pushing out updates consistently so I’m sure it’ll only get better!

  • Classic Alpine

  • Interesting, I’ve used it for years for full seasons and never missed a session. Just be sure to use the new V2 version. Best of luck!

  • I’m not aware of any communities yet, but I’d recommend taking a look at SportSurge. Easy enough to use, and should have streams for F1 sessions.

  • Give me another Nando podium please!
