doulikefish Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Strange practice today with the Bulls/McLaren only doing runs on hard tyres although Lando had a bit of a coming together with the hulk which may explain him not coming back out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammerafc Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Report on the radio saying Verstappen doesn't have duty to support Perez to 2nd. The thing is if he keeps pumping in wins it's easily the best support he can provide as takes points away from all his rivals. Perez has truly been piss poor this season since the start of the Monaco weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was just rain, fair point but with high winds & lightning it surely becomes a duty of care thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Just now, Iminavest said: If it was just rain, fair point but with high winds & lightning it surely becomes a duty of care thing. Well yes, under typical circumstances that's exactly the purpose of the Red, but it was clear everyone had parked up for the day anyway. Not that it actually makes any difference, but it just smacks a bit of the typically ridiculous pant-wetting in current F1 the moment it isn't 30 degrees & sunshine. There was a good 3-4 minutes between the red being thrown and the serious stuff arriving, so you wonder what they would have done if cars had actually been out on the track and on course for setting faster times. I think we're a bawhair away from F1 becoming another pisstake formula that just doesn't run in the wet, and although what appeared at the end of the session today wouldn't have been driveable in any era, it does feel like they have the horse ahead of the cart a bit at the moment when they always bring up 'safety' as the excuse for sitting in the pits when it's wet, when the reality is it's garbage design regs and the ridiculous prohibition on altering set-up between sessions that makes wet conditions undriveable. Be interesting to see what would happen if that sort of weather appears tomorrow or Sunday, because the Sao Paulo crowd isn't known for being the most temperate and well behaved at the best of times. Can't see them just passively sitting watching 4 hours of nothing because it's spitting a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senorsoupe Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Sad news for fans of the small unsuccesful teams of the 80's and 90's Erich Zakowski, founder of Zakspeed, has passed at age 89 https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/zakspeed-founder-erich-zakowski-passes-away-at-age-89/10542643/ Their cars (such as the 891) tended to be good looking but rubbish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
