Kamui 👋

has a massive shot at this race😍😍 😍

and he's looking at the win 👋

He’s the only one starting on hard tires, plus he still has one fresh soft left over😁

So what's the deal with Petrov and Sen being ahead of Kobayashi? Or even crazier, how is Sen 8th and Petrov 9th?😂
Petrov actually had a better time than Sen in both Q1 and Q2. 🤣

Honestly, they totally botched the qualifying results, but there’s no way on earth Sen ends up 8th. There's just no logic to it.🤷

On top of that, Kamui had a faster time than Schumacher in Q3. By any stretch of the imagination, Deda can't be 7th, and there's no way Kamui is 10th.😕

Seriously, what kind of shady business is going on with these qualifying times?😕

7. Schumacher - 1.53.671
8. Senna - 1.46.125
9. Petrov - 1.49.199
10. Kobayashi - 1.41.950

And what kind of messed up joke is this order even supposed to be?😕

Chris Ortiz said:It’s going to be quite interesting to see just how good Vettel really is this time around, especially since we finally have such balanced cars on the grid this year. Personally, I think Hamilton is the clear favorite to take the win, with Button right on his heels in second.

Button and Alonso are the real threats here. ☕

Vettel was probably just managing the gap, thinking he’d settle for points.

Hamilton would've probably blown a tire before the first pit stop.☕

Hamilton - Schumacher's move during qualifying was dangerous
Deda - Hamilton was "stupid"

🤣🤣🤣

Looks like things are going to get tense with Deda this weekend🤣

Massa's starting right behind Hamilton, so things are about to get interesting at the lights🤣

Hamilton 🤣

Kamui 👋

😱 You're dreaming about me? 😱

Kobayashi No1 🙏👋🙂😍

Come on sleepers, wake up🙂

Raymond Anderson4 said:Exactly.
It’s not the first time I've seen Red Bull treat Friday practice like a casual Sunday drive.
I remember seeing Ferrari sitting at the top of the charts on Fridays before, making you think they had something special. Then Saturday rolls around, everyone else finds another gear, and suddenly it turns out Ferrari was just faster during those specific Friday laps. They can't seem to replicate that pace once the pressure of qualifying hits. It just stops dead.

Actually, when Red Bull looks lazy during practice, that's when they're absolutely lethal on race day. I'm more worried when they're sitting P1 or P2 in FP1, FP2, or FP3—that usually means they're going to struggle.🤣

ESPN.com says it’s going to be a scorcher, so expect a total washout on the track🤣

Brian Campbell36 said:Once again, we find ourselves watching Vettel set fastest laps after fastest laps, circling the track with effortless precision.🙂
Ferrari seems to have completely checked out of this season, while McLaren shows flashes of potential—though it appears Hamilton on track has much more destructive intentions in mind. :falcam:
Unless we see some rain, what is even the point of waking up early just to witness endless replays of past races and the sheer dominance of Red Bull, a level of supremacy that hasn't been seen in American racing for quite some time.

Even in the digital realm, within the F1 2011 Season video game, Vettel dominates race after race; how does one even begin to contend with a man who possesses such an overwhelming, almost impossible superiority over the rest of the field?

What do you mean "it's been a while"? 🤣

I can only remember a handful of seasons over the last decade where we didn't have a single dominant car or driver sitting at the top. Honestly, there seem to be more eras defined by total dominance than anything else. Then again, that’s just how it goes—some drivers simply couldn't squeeze everything out of their machinery to turn raw pace into actual wins.

Red Bull was way more dominant last year than they are this season. It’s a whole different story when you look at Vettel—he was making mistakes last year, but he's dialed in now. On top of that, Hamilton is messing up so much lately it's actually getting ridiculous.

Since when did Liuzzi have a Mercedes up his sleeve? 😕😕😕

What are you doing at the pub or what's your problem?🤣

So, Liuzzi is stuck driving that HRT with a Cosworth engine. 🤣

mistybear87 said:Sergio Liuzzi mentioned he’s going to try taking it flat out with the DRS enabled. If he ends up wrecking the car like an absolute amateur, then we'll know pretty quickly that it didn't work. 😬

Liuzzi going flatout with DRS is like Sebastian Vettel going half-throttle. 🤣

ruggedfox28 said:I actually worked out a deal with the local dive to open up just for me, so they won't let anyone else through the door until my race is over 🙏 🙏

It’s either you or your precious race.🤣

Michael Lee4 said:Is there anything easier than grabbing a torrent of the BBC's race broadcast? 🍿

It’s way easier to film.😁

Did you know you can record every single channel at once? Just figured that out myself. Total game changer.🤣

So, my VU+ Solo is acting up again. Just great.😁 I finally got my setup dialed in. I mounted the drive directly into the PC server, so it’s acting like local storage. Now everything records straight to it without any lag in the living room, and I don't have that annoying overheating issue around the receiver anymore. Problem solved.🙂

It’s actually totally doable to record all three BBC streams at once since they’re all on the same IP. You can grab the main race feed, the onboard camera view, and the driver tracker all at the exact same time.

Screw my own tip, I knew this was coming since the start of the season ☕

stormybadger8 said:Like I said after the first race, none of them stand a chance. Vettel is going to win this by the biggest points margin in history 🤣

And the best part? He'll probably have three times as many points as his teammate 😁

🤣

I’m just sitting here waiting for Mass and Lewis Hamilton to absolutely wreck each other in a mid-track brawl.🤣
