James Harris34 said:Look, we all know who the real underdog is here. I mean, if you look at all the data points and listen to basically any top-tier expert out there, it’s pretty obvious that Red Bull Racing has the fastest car on the grid this year, but hey, maybe you're just the smartest guy in the room, right?
frozenheron7 said:I feel the same way, I guess. Mercedes is still showing some signs of life, but honestly, it feels like it's almost entirely down to Lewis Hamilton's sheer talent at this point. Red Bull Racing is clearly the superior machine, so I don't really see how Mercedes or Lewis could pull off a championship this year, unless something absolutely wild and catastrophic happens to Red Bull.__
wiredseal7 said:These delusions just pop up before every single race. 👎What if Pierre Gasly ends up taking out Hamilton?
wiredseal7 said:Honestly, this is one of those absolute low points for NASCAR.
I mean, they’ve never been quite this overly cautious about rain before, so I guess you have to wonder why it's such a massive deal in this era?
The worst part is, the conditions actually looked decent around 3 PM; they could have totally made it work, or if nothing else, just cruised through some laps under the SC and waited for things to clear up.
But instead, we just get these drivers whining about visibility... though, I don't know, when was the last time we had a wet race where visibility wasn't already a nightmare?
silverviper44 said:They broadcast it, but honestly, it's just four races.
ESPN is carrying the race.
mellowtiger83 said:I think I actually have German ABC on my Verizon plan, just the basic cheap one, but honestly I don't really know if they carry it or not since I haven't bothered looking up the specifics.
Richard Walker38 said:And he died, too.
If you asked me, we’d probably have even more Bianchi drivers out there today if things had gone differently.
Jason Campbell70 said:They could've just gone with a full wet setup and totally ignored any chance that part of the race might actually dry out tomorrow.
I guess the guys at the front can't really afford to gamble like that unless they're absolutely certain about the forecast.
Then again, I suppose Williams Racing has pretty much nothing to lose.
Sam Clark75 said:Where on earth did George Russell find that line... 🙏
shadowmarlin22 said:Alonso is showing everyone exactly what he's made of. Honestly, he's easily one of the top three drivers out there right now, even if you put him alongside Lewis and Max.
Jason Campbell70 said:Anyway, looking at Alonso-Rajkonen, there’s maybe an eighteen-month gap between them if you’re just talking about age.
But when it comes to actual driving talent? It's night and day, honestly.
While Maestro was out there basically performing miracles by keeping up with the NFL GOAT in a total underdog car, Valtteri Bottas was just kind of... busy getting overtaken by Nikita Mazepin. And I think that happened in the pit lane, too.
