F1 2024 Singapore Grand Prix - Race Weekend Thread

[Bedi]

Went in 2019, if you live in WA it's cheaper than going to Melbourne. Good atmosphere but if you can't tolerate the heat and potentially getting soaked don't bother.

Given proximity to Australia it's on my list, and it would be cool to see a night GP. But most important question, they're not charging $20 for a beer are they?

 

[Bedi]

They should mic the drivers up with each other during the race, that would be some good listening.

was just thinking that tonight. But it could go horribly wrong

Am i allowed to make a joke about danny helping max more than checo does?

Seriously while RBs strategy was bad again thats a nice touch at the end. Dannys had a great career and should be proud of all hes done. One of the best aussies in f1 ever.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

That stuff from yuki on the radio i think shows why he isnt going in the main car even if perez gets booted. Quick but not a team player-pretty loose at times.

God it'd be like a CoD lobby

Mind games as well. Or give them 3 messages a race to pass on

IIRC it was expensive but actually comparable to what you could get at a bar outside the track.

Keep in mind this was before the Drive to Survive boom so they've probably jacked it up since then, and the Aus dollar is weak right now

 

[Pure_Ownage]

If Lando loses the title by a point we need to reinstate knighthoods for Danny.

I reckon lando will fall about 10pts short but i agree.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Sainz went the full race on hards after lap 6 or 7 . Maybe after the graining in the previous GPon Dannys car they stayed off the hard , but they just appear poor in their strategy .

They dont really seem to know when to run long or when to run short RB. Always in 2 minds.

If that happens, we will become a republic the day after becuse they’ll punt us from the commonwealth

f***ing Drive to Survive! Ruins everything. I'm going to the Brazil GP in Nov and getting tickets is a nightmare. Sold out in one day.

Takes me back to my youth trash talking COD in the LAN parlour.

also red bull focusing more on danny ric and moving him on (seemingly) but allowing perez to stay and help lose a constructors championship is something.

if they lose the constructor's championship surely they will sack Checo. So reckon Dan's a sneaky chance for RB next year.

Still crapping on about Budapest and Monza.

unfortunately i think dan's done in f1. i hope he can get a decent drive somewhere but i just dont see it.

Sponsorship $$$$ with checo sadly. But i still think DR would do well in the main car.

probably. But his body language shows to me he thinks he's not 100% done.

I think he will retire he wont wait for that i think hes content to move on in life. I also dont think they have the balls to move on checo.

Yes they arr, Singapore beer prices are extortion.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

That was hard to hear danny talk at the end. Poor guy is resigned to it. Brings a tear to the eye. But i think hes treated people well and handled it with some class.

yep the fact he was asking himself what else is there to achieve didn't sound great in terms of his future in the sport

i paid $10 for a pot of Asahi the other day in Melb, so that was pretty outrageous,

 

[Bedi]

yep he's done

 

[happy_eagle]

Would be awkward now if they kept him lol
