The 2023 Formula 1 Thread

It's a shitty race and it's only on the calendar because so many rich pricks and related sponsors like the beano and would spit the dummy if they ever moved it.

[harrybarracuda]

It's like they've all forgotten how to drive in the wet.

It's a shame that Alonso's team fuk'd up his pit stop or we would have had a very exciting end to the race...

Nice to see the Red Team fuk up again.

[Backspin]

Nice to see the skinny sob Ocon get on the podium.

And straight to the Spanish GP:

So, Saturday - qualy or FA Cup Final?

So, Saturday - qualy or FA Cup Final?

If the pub has two screens - both. If it doesn't, whatever's on. Doesn't really matter.

Austria this weekend.

FP1 starts in ten minutes. Quali at 22:00, Sprint shenanigens tomorrow.

[harrybarracuda]

Perez and Russell both missed out on Q3.

There are so many track limit violations going on it's taking five minutes to report them all.

Bit of a fucking joke really.

[harrybarracuda]

It sounds like there were so many track limit violations that they are even now still working out ones they missed so they can add some more penalties and decide on the ultimate classification.

Which is even more of a fucking joke than I thought it would be.

As many are pointing out, why not just put a gravel trap on turn 10?

track limit violations

Ridiculously overly strict. The race turned out to be a real snooze fest.

They have been all season. I'm sure Liberty will be gnashing their teeth a bit.

Doesn't help them that the token seppo driver is totally out of his depth, too.

That seems to be par the course then.

wank wank wank wank, wank wank wank wank, wank... The sport was ruined by Red Bull, stroppy little boy and dumb Aussie twat cheating last season.

Actually it was the season before.

I thought we'd have a US team and US driver by now. You'd think GM or someone could put together a decent car and engine.

We'll see soon enough. The Andretti's have been banging on the door pretty loudly, and GM seems to be interested in building the engine...

Well, that shows how much of a loss F1 has been to me...

[harrybarracuda]

Actually it probably shows how old you are.

[Bettyboo]

You're only as young as the woman you feel...
(Fuk, that makes me quite old).


Actually, I watched some of this race, as I was trying to take some tension out of the cricket watching. The race wasn't unexciting, but the Redbull is just better, and there also seemed to be some cheating in support of the red bulls in regard to track limits (I am a but biased, as I f'kin hat Horner, the stroppy little boy and his arrogant wank stain of a father). The stroppy little boy has done a good job of intimidating many other drivers, so very few put their elbows out against him; good job by him, but spineless from many of the others, and a highly constructed element by the likes of Horner that winds me up... Bastards.

Nope, wasn't required with 35% of the track being DRS. They never needed to push track limits, they can overtake any car any time.

Mad Max could even afford to pit at the end to get fastest lap with only a 23-second lead.

FFS he even won the sprint race by 20+ seconds.

You're fuct. Where were you when the douche lord Hamilton was coasting to victory every race running his engine at 75%?

[Backspin]

George Russell is out of his funk
Starts 11th, beats his teammate

[helge]

when the douche lord Hamilton was coasting to victory every race running his engine at 75%?

Could be some truth to that.

These days Red Bull, Ferrari, Aston,McLaren and his team mate's Mercedes, is faster than him.
