They really ought to build ☕

thanks 👍

Anyone willing to drop a stream link here? I don't see why we have to deal with all this nonsense in private messages. 🙄

What’s with these 5-second penalties now? Back when they unfairly penalized Schumacher in Monaco, everyone was claiming they could only hand out a 25-second penalty after the race. Now it seems like those rules only apply when Schumacher is the one getting penalized. 🤮

As for the race, I think Kubica could have driven better. My gut tells me that Renault can actually be pretty fast in these kinds of conditions. Luckily he didn't try to overtake Rubin, or he might have just ended up straight into the wall. Props to Kamui for his driving; he managed to milk the situation for everything it was worth. Webber -> retirement ☕

Grandpa made up for messing up qualifying two races in a row by making moves during the start and early laps. Then, after finishing 3rd, the team absolutely trashed his race with some terrible calls.☕

Brawn is an idiot. He left his brain in the past.

Lewis Hamilton didn't hit Vettel; you're the one who ran him down.
Michael Schumacher 🙏
Robert Kubica and Jenson Button 🙏

I doubt it. He didn't push much during qualifying. They always hoard enough rubber, so this last-second waiting game makes zero sense to me.

Why is Robert Kubica waiting for the last train just to run a glorified parade lap? Absolute idiots.

They completely sabotaged what could have been a brilliant race with their strategy for Schumacher. They ran him on hard tires for a stint that was way too short, forcing him to spend half the race on softs at the end. A total disaster. Kubica fell into the same trap with his tactics—pitting for another set of rubber late in the game just to lose a spot to Rosberg. The whole race felt messy. It seems most teams overthought the tire usage instead of using it to actually pressure McLaren, who were clearly struggling. By playing it this safe, they basically neutralized any advantage they had. Vettel said exactly what everyone was thinking on the radio, and I don't get why people are annoyed. He’s slower than the guys ahead of him, yet they're barking at him to overtake. Absolute nonsense. Massa looked fast, and Alonso did too, but their races were shot almost immediately.

As for Red Bull, I think we can kiss this year's championship goodbye right now. They failed to capitalize on the raw pace they showed, and honestly, it feels like they're only going downhill from here. At this point, it's really just a question of whether it's Hamilton or Button.

They wouldn't be facing penalties if they weren't such frauds ☕

So you're actually saying Grandpa shouldn't have been penalized in Monaco ☕

The Red Bull car this year is clearly superior. Sure, Mark Webber might pull ahead here and there, but looking at the big picture, Sebastian Vettel is just faster. Between the mechanical failures in the first race, the second, and even that disaster in Los Angeles, he’s dropped a massive amount of points. Honestly, he’s just as responsible for those technical glitches as Kimi Raikkonen was for his own back in the day. Plus, his race engineer and the rest of the crew on the pit wall didn't exactly help—they handed him some pretty questionable calls during the races.

Michael Lee4 said:Man, Button lost nearly 20 seconds just dragging himself along behind the old man... Meanwhile, Massa looks significantly faster with that new "aero package."😁

Who exactly was stopping him from overtaking? ☕
It’s not the veteran's fault he can't drive. ☕

Michael Lee4 said:Look, you've got Rosberg and Hulkenberg right there. Nico left everything on the track, but it just wasn't enough. And cut the crap about me being "cautious"... honestly, just shut up before you embarrass yourself. 😉

Come on, stop the nonsense. Your post isn't even about overtaking potential; it's just an insult. And again, don't blame me because Button is struggling. 🙂

Besides, Nico cleared Hulkenberg easily...

Michael Lee4 said:When I’m looking at something I don't understand, I just shut up. I don't comment. Better than embarrassing myself. ☕

You’re lying, and we can all see it. It’s not my fault you're pinning your hopes on Button when he's clearly stalled out.

And don't you come around here trying to act high and mighty with me. 😉

If an F1 driver can't even look left, they might as well stay home and play rFactor.

mistybear87 said:At best, he's seeing what's happening directly behind him. When you're exiting the pit lane, you don't exactly have time to check blind spots, even if you could actually turn your head. 🤣🤣
That's four seconds where he's just staring at the lollipop man, and the moment they signal, he floors it and gets out. Checking mirrors? That's what the guy holding the sign is for. ☕

He’s pulling out perpendicularly, not parallel, so looking left shouldn't be an issue. The idea that they can just rely on someone else to handle this is nonsense. You don't need to hunt for blind spots or obsess over mirrors; just look left and don't pull out like an idiot. Most of these situations would be avoided entirely. It's not like they're in a massive rush during practice or qualifying.

mistybear87 said:it’s not Alonso’s fault if the lollipop guy is blind lol🙂

Does he personally lack eyes? Honestly, at this point, the drivers aren't even to blame. Why are they even sitting in that car?🙄

Robert Kubica really got the short end of the stick last time with that useless safety car period. 🤷
