Pretty boring race compared to the first two. Leclerc dominated from lap 1. RBR needs to get their act together and figure out these reliability issues.

Mclaren and Merc both seemed to have better pace this weekend. Hopefully there’s a better battle at Imola

Just got this is m email. General admission for the Miami GP,, $1200 for three days no seat. Good luck with that.

That’s quite a lot for general admission

Then you also have parking, overpriced food & drink they will ding you for on site.

I had thought of doing to the Miami race one year but compared to what I last paid for general admission
on special for the Montreal one I will stay local. (paid same price as an overpriced onsite beer!)

Very weird state of affairs this season with these new vehicle. The driver's lack of confidence on the vehicle is showing more than ever at FP 1. They are already unpredictable on dry conditions, big props for whoever the winner is on Sunday if it's still raining by then.

Pretty wet session at Imola this morning actually made an exiting view lots of twitchy cars out there .
Weather will clear up for the next 2 days but will remain on the cool side
70F Saturday and only 64F race day.

LEC was on time after his loss this week

and those Ferrari’s quite ahead of the group.

HAAS : wow.

On with Quali…

I think Lec is going to win on Sunday. If there is one place he will go all out is this track, aside from Monaco. Huge motivation to give Ferrari fans a win on a home circuit with the momentum he has. Still can't rule out Sainz or Max that for sure will want to finish a race, and win it nonetheless.

spcmafia · 04-22-2022, 12:53 PM

What a shitshow of a Quali lmao. It wasn't boring per se, just full or surprises, not good ones, but surprises nonetheless.

Let's go KMag!!!

Not a fan of this sprint weekend format but acknowledge this one had some good racing moments.

Carloss made quite the recovery from yesterday.

RB seem to be back with reliability and speed to keep up with those red ones.
Had not much hope at the beginning that RB would get back in the game after the setbacks in the first few laps.

Mclaren duo made good work of this one as well.

Thanks to Gasly we got to see those nice rims hiding behind those horrible looking hub caps!

Or not as in this case which showed how fragile they are.

Sorry I guess I did Jinks Car_loss... This is not his year.

George is showing he’s the real deal... Constancy gets him up to 4th in drivers Championship.
Driving the crap out of the crap cars for the past few years and he’s at home with his new Bobble-head Merc.

AM made points finally.
NOR was low key today but got him a podium.

Yuki & Bottas had some great charging moments in the last half.

Not the outcome the Tifosi wanted. LEC was lucky to scrape some points from his errors.

Perfect weekend for RB.
Perfect for the F1 fans , got a race that saw a lot of action and passing.

HAM pit radio confirmed to him it was a terrible race. I don’t think he answered.

Around here the city taxis use zip ties to keep the caps on….
there was a good look at the real wheel hiding behind the cap just a few seconds
after your Pic with just the cap circumference left and 80% of the wheel exposed.
Did I say I don’t like those cheap covers even if they are functional?

If the shark from Jaws doesn't jump out of the "water" in the fake marina I will be very disappointed.
