Between Alonso and almost everybody else. Stroll was nowhere, but Alonso in his 40's is sharper than 75% of the current grid. His reactions when the car snaps on him is unbelievable.
What a clusterfuck that was at the end.
Gasly got screwed.
Yeah so much. This was crazy by sainz
Wow, Williams with the big balls strategy, nicely done
I respect it. They saw a small window to put in some fast laps on softs and they capitalized on it in a big way.

Go on Albon!
how do y'all feel about race weekends with these later than usual session start times?
I hate them, give me my 8-9am sessions!
How about you Euros/Asians? Are these times better or worse?
UK. Love them. Nothing like having a good weekend ending with a live race on a Sunday evening.

Sainz should get even more then a 3 grid penalty. This was not only impeading, but crazy dangerous.
The penalty is given for the infringement, not the outcome. Not that I disagree with you, but that is how the rules are applied.
Yeah sure. I honestly don't expect anything else. But they should really add some additional penalties for this very dangerous maneuvers.

Williams with 2 fastest sectors, just like we ll predicted.
Williams dominance could bore fans
Q2, with more rain coming
What an action-packed FP1!
Edge of the seat stuff!
Aw, man, went to commercial right as Gasly was about to tell everybody how he felt about Sainz being in the middle of the track.
Wow we need rain every weekend. This qualifying is nuts
Does it rain everyontreal GP weekend?
Oh I almost forgot we were in RAWE CEEK! Came here to see that the sessions are already going to be very wet. Hope not another one gets put into red flag hell again...
Russel has to retire with break issues
Probably just me but this thread wasn't easy to find on chrome android or jerboa, even though it's pinned?
Yeah, pinning a comment seems pretty meaningless at the moment because Lemmy doesn't seem to be respecting the pinned status.
Other than you know who, I have no predictions for how its going to play out!
Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs
If the rain picks up now and the softs take 2 laps to get to working temperature, those who just came in might lose out heavily.
FIA: It's raining
Drivers: It's not raining
2 minutes later: Track is flooding
Oh boy, really hoping Alpine are just getting their mechanical issues out of the way before the race. Not a good sign with both cars bringing out the red flags...
Hulkenfire!
