F1 The Wash Up - Previous 2024 Race Weekends

[Cromulant]

Bottas is really into cycling at the moment. he has qualified for his age group in the World Gravel championship in the next two weeks. It helps that his partner Tiffany cromwell is a pro cyclist.

Does a fair bit of cycling around my place in the Adelaide Hills in the summer

Will be sad without Bottas on the grid next year purely because I won't get to go to his Oath Gin lounge at the Melb GP and give him a Crows scarf again.

 

[Jatz]

Is Bottas not signed for next year? Assumed Sauber would send him around again.

He might be. Rumour at the moment is they will be keeping him alongside Hulk and have a young driver as the reserve.

I like Bottas but I think it's time.

Colapinto or Bortoletto should be getting a go. The next gen is coming through and could take a quarter of the grid in 2025.

maybe there was some self interest. still, i thought the way red bull exited danny ric was classy. gave him the chance of the fastest lap, mentioned him in the team radio cross to max, and gave him a standing ovation at an after-race function.

Full preview up later tonight or tomorrow morning when I find the time

Hulkenberg and Bottas.
Couldn't get a less inspiring driver combo if you tried

At least Magnussen brought the LOLs when Haas had the Hulk/Mag combo.

 

[Cromulant]

Piastri out in Q1 Sprint Quali.

Mclaren won't enjoy that

Ehh it kinda makes sense for a year or 2.

2 very experienced heads to get Audi going, bring in a young gun or a big name in year 2 and 3

 

[Gak Attack]

Max back.

Missed it, what happened with him?

track limits got him

Cue the Brits complaining that Oscar is not supporting Waaando and that he deliberately went out in SQ 1.

Interesting that Sky when the eventually mentioned Danny Ric said that he’d “retired” I know Danny Ric said he was retired but that was because he was sacked.

I’m sorry but having to listen to the Brits on Sky is like listening to Blues radio as a Collingwood supporter or Fox News America as a democrat.

I’m sorry but having to listen to the Brits on Sky is like listening to Blues radio as a Collingwood supporter or Fox News America as someone with a functioning brain.

fixed that for you

Timely given I see that Danica Patrick is on the telecast this weekend.

Have not heard one person online say anything positive about her. Not sure even Americans like her (and that would be the only reason she's on the telecast)

I was at the Indy 500 and some fans said she was the most unpleasant driver they'd tried to get an autograph from.

 

[hotchilli]

Oscar certainly isn’t having a good time so far this weekend.

Hopefully can bounce back in quali and the race.

 

[hotchilli]

Lando really just isn’t capable of the consistency required to close the gap on Max.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Ditching Sainz for Hamilton is a dumb move but Ferrari. I know Hamilton has won two races this year but both gifted by poor opposition pit stops. He's been behind Russell most of the season as well.

He'll be fine in Quali.

Had a pretty reasonable sprint race

Yeah minus the 5 second penalty.
