F1 The Wash Up - Previous 2024 Race Weekends

[Black_White]

He'll definitely play good team mate during the sprint as it's only 1 pt. Not so sure about the race if he outqualifies Lando and has a chance to win though.

He’s a team player.
And has stated that Lando needs the Championship points more than he does.
He is quite happy to achieve team championship at this stage of his career.
No doubt would be a different story if he was in the fight for drivers.

He's comfortably beaten Oscar on merit in most races this season

But how many of those “on merit” wins against Oscar were made with a car that was significantly upgraded?
Most I would think.

I don't pay much attention to F1 outside of race days - why is Bearman racing for Magnussen this weekend?

KMag is ill. Because he wasn't well enough to drive yesterday and being a sprint weekend there was sprint quali, Bearman has to drive in the sprint. Then because there is no practice today and with the surface being new they didn't want to put KMag into the car and straight into quali without any practice sessions. Plus, Bearman has been lightning quick around this track and if he was told to abort his final SQ3 lap and go again he could have pushed the top 5.

Karun upset at T2 that Piastri didn’t move over straight away lol

Should hold the lead right up until the last lap to make up for when Norris took the shine off Oscar’s first win.

 

[PolePiastri]

Norris on the radio every lap wanting to be let through haha

 

[gaskin]

Lando being a petulant twat as usual.

Can't wait for all the Brits on socials that said Oscar never earned his win because Lando had to move over to change their tune and all of a sudden it's Landos deserved win

 

[PolePiastri]

This is beautiful by Oscar. This is the treatment Norris gave Oscar. Payback Lando you whiny brat.

The melts from British fans is delicious

 

[gaskin]

If they are going to switch they should do it in turn one while Charles has dropped back.

Safety car to the end and no overtaking would be hilarious

 

[DamoESP]

Hulks engine is smoking hard there…

 

[gaskin]

Been told to switch.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Put the virtual safety car out after Norris switched, where's Andrew Benson and his mates now bitching about 2021?

 

[DamoESP]

Wow….thats a bit late to be calling a VSC. Absolute stitch up

Lucky about the virtual safety car, max was definitely gonna get Piastri which would have been a disaster.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Stitch ups all over the place

 

[gaskin]

How the **** was Max sticking to the delta there?

 

[Bradesmaen]

How the **** was Max sticking to the delta there?

Because Oscar wasn't. He was 1 second behind Lando then under vsc was 2.4

 

[DamoESP]

Herbert is one of the stewards this weekend so expect Max to get the maximum penalty (10 seconds) instead of regular 5 seconds for a VSC delta breach here

That Guinea pig shouldn’t be anywhere near the stewards office given there’s 4 poms on the grid

 

[gaskin]

You do realise he isn't the only steward, right?

Wow, won't be surprised if they also punish Hulk for leaving his car, if I'm not mistaken I think a driver has been fined before for something similar.

but the VSC was very late if he managed to get himself out of the car and walk along the track before the VSC is called, incredibly dangerous.

 

[gaskin]

I think it is walking across the track they don't like.
