People only seem to show up for Lewis at the Circuit of Cotes🤣

We’re probably just going to end up listening to another one of those generic Hamilton statements about how incredible the fans are while watching everyone wave their flags around everywhere.

Just so Max Verstappen can snag that extra point.

If you look at how that Bottas-Ricciardo situation went down, we might be stuck watching a straight-up drag race between Sergio Perez and Lewis Hamilton until the checkered flag. They’re probably just going to sit there hugging the DRS line without any real chance of making a move.

Come on, Perez, don't let the home crowd down.

They might just bring Sergio Perez in for a pit stop if he can find a gap. I honestly think he’d fly with clean air in front of him. Right now, he's stuck hovering right around two seconds behind.

We really need a Scuderia Ferrari pit stop right about now. Someone needs to get locked in at the stadium. Everyone’s just drifting apart, with gaps hitting three seconds or more between them.

Come on, Checo! At least give your teammate a little support for one race. Drive like you're heading home and just give it everything you've got.

If someone decides to go absolutely rogue, they’re just going to end up blindly accepting whatever Charles Leclerc throws at them.

Looks like Valtteri is playing second fiddle today, letting his teammate take the lead while he just parks the bus behind the squad.

Actually, Max lost a ton of time in the second sector because of that early slide, so he was right on track to significantly improve his lap. It wouldn't have been the same at all. He mentioned after the session that he expected a yellow flag when he saw two cars off the track, so he backed off.

It’s not exactly 1.2 miles, but if you want to exaggerate things, go ahead.

I honestly thought Perez was the one at fault here, too. But honestly? Yuki Tsunoda totally screwed him over. He just caused absolute chaos on track and completely broke his concentration.

At this rate, Tsunoda is going to get kicked out of Formula 1 in record time. 🤣

Perez 🤦

Edit: Tsunoda completely blew it

Ever since Mercedes officially announced him for next season, and honestly even after he snatched those points for Williams, Mr. Saturday hasn't looked like he cares at all. It’s like he’s already checked out on vacation. He isn't even trying. Everything feels so calm and totally uninterested. He basically just showed up for the audition, signed the contract, and now he's just coasting through the rest of the season.

He’s constantly complaining, even though he’s nearly half a second slower than his teammate 🤣

Looks like Sainz blew his engine

Edit: he's fine though 🤣

First red flag of the day

Is Charles Leclerc actually going to make it through this race? He’s already spun out more than a few times this weekend and absolutely wrecked his run.
