Norris moral pole?

he should get his own starting position in front of pole

 

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

Well at least Norris starting 17th can break his hoodoo of never gaining a position on the first lap of a race!

 

[Skull Face]

****ing awesome effort from Oscar. Not sure the McLaren has the pace of the Ferrari.

Race Pace they do so should bode well for tomorrow hopefully he can win a race without the bs.

 

[Gak Attack]

he should get his own starting position in front of pole

Would still find a way to be behind after the first lap.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Has anyone checked on Will Buxton?

 

[Gak Attack]

Oscar's grin when he knows he can go for the win lol

 

[Shifty1]

Of course Oscar has the green light to go for victory tomorrow. Norris is ****ing 17th you muppet! Who pays these commentators!?

 

[Duck Farmer]

He needs it after being pole 7 times in his career and losing the lead in the first lap each time.

 

[largebus]

In better news for Lando, he might actually hold or even gain a position on the first lap for once.

Can't wait to see them **** over Piastri on pit strategy to protect Norris's 17th place from the Saubers.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Stage is set tomorrow for Lando being DOTD.

You do know what a joke is, right?

Oscar should be invoicing Sky as a commentator given the amount of times his radio has been used by the broadcast to explain what’s happening to another car this year. His radio message did a better job of explaining what happened than what Karun and the other bloke managed even after seeing the footage for over a minute.

Colapinto out-qualifying Albon in his second race is a bit embarrassing, even before the fan fiasco he was outpacing him.

 

[barrackers]

Commentators still trying to find an excuse in Q2&3 for Norris binning it in Q1.

 

[StFly]

Ah so they settled on "not Landos fault, a steward screwed up".

 

[Magma]

but why is he slowing down so far before the yellow? looks like yet another norris mistake, but im sure it will be everything else under the sun, not that.

Yeah I had to laugh at that.

Chandhok shaming the Williams pit crew for not seeing the flouro green air intake fan on releasing Albons car. The same flouro green air intake fan that Chandhok missed on his 60 cm TV screen but Piastri noticed in his 5 cm square rear view mirror accelerating to a quali lap.

Chandhok is a joke. Who loves his voice far too much.

Jacques Villeneuve said you’re supposed to keep your speed til you get to the post where the yellow is and if he had done that, then the light would have been off by then.

 

[Acinath]

For those watching Sky post-quali, JV has absolutely pissed himself on TV

 

[happy_eagle]

B-Grade commentary team had an absolute mare on that one.

Care to explain?

 

[Acinath]

Care to explain?

Villeneuve literally has a very suspect dark patch in his groin area

 

[Gunf]

Lando may as well take a whole new power unit since he is starting so far back what is another 2-3 places

He'll start on the hards and go as long as he can hoping for a safety car (Safety car very likely around here). Could still well end up well in the points around Verstappen.
