Come on, darkmarlin16, just give it a rest. 🙏

I’ve just been sitting here waiting for someone else to kick things off so I can finally share my own expectations for the season.🙏

darkmarlin16 said:I have to admit, the car looks stunning,
but what really worries me is how easily that foam managed to tear right through the nose of Nelson Piquet's car. It just left this gaping hole. Is that because they don't have KERS, or is there something else going on?😕🤷

Well, that’s just Renault for you.😍

stormybadger8 said:All in all, yesterday was basically just Piquet's dancer, Lewis Hamilton, and Nakajima putting on a show; because of all that distraction, I barely caught even a glimpse of Sebastian Vettel during the broadcast😢

You know how it goes—if someone is leading the pack, that's where everyone's eyes end up looking.😁

Nelson Piquet announced he’s aiming for 16th place in the Bahrain standings 🙏

It’s certainly a bold claim from him 🙏

Look, Tony, I think we have to be realistic here. Felipe Massa had a solid run yesterday before that unfortunate mechanical failure, but let’s not get carried away—it wasn't exactly a legendary performance that puts him on a pedestal 🤷

The guy was simply driving his heart out and making decent progress through the field

Is it just me, or does it feel like Ferrari is one of the few cars struggling with reliability this season? ☕

darkmarlin16 said:Honestly, what idiots🙂 😛 😛—it’s like they aren't even looking at the onboard cameras or the drivers' helmets.

Their real issue is that they spend way too much energy worrying about what kind of nonsense they're going to blurt out on air next.

And because of that, they can't actually focus on the race itself.

To be perfectly honest, sitting here in my armchair, I feel like I have a better grasp of the overall race situation than both of them combined.

Which is just plain sad.🤷

Blazicko and Novak were having a bit of a hard time following the broadcast today, weren't they? They seemed pretty lost during that duel between Sebastian Vettel and Buton; at one point, they actually confused them with Mark Webber and Barichel who happened to be on screen, leading to a rather bewildered scramble for the replay 😁

Everyone's going to be acting like they're experts once that first win finally happens.

But honestly, looking at that Toyota, I just don't see it ever happening.😁

He’s my second favorite driver out there. I can't help but wonder why things always seem to go sideways for him like this.🤷

It’s a massive blow, and honestly, it isn't just a loss for him or his crew.

It's a hit to all of us who have never been particularly fond of Ferrari in the first place.🤣🤣🤣🤣

stormybadger8 said:I appreciate the kind words👍

I’d say I was definitely the very first Vettel's fan in the States😍 right from that first race, and I fully intend to stay that way until his final lap🙏

That’s what you call a true team and a world-class driver🙏🙏🙏

It’s just incredible when you hear him over the radio—the sheer amount of raw emotion and joy he shows😍

It isn't just some mumbled nonsense into a headset, either🤣

So you were the first Vettel fan in America

But if we're being honest, I think I was actually the first person on this forum to post years ago, predicting that the kid was going to be a future World Champion

I really hope someone can dig up that old post somewhere😁

stormybadger8 said:I’m honestly just over here cheering my head off 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Let me just say, huge congratulations to you 😁

It’s actually quite rare to run into anyone who pulls for Red Bull Racing, so I have to give you some major respect for that one 🙏 🙏 🙏

Bradley Green75 said:🤣

Honestly, it’s hard to find anyone who actually outpaced Kimi Räikkönen today. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if even the little scooter Masa uses to zip back to the pits managed to clock a faster lap than him. 🙄

I suppose I should try to find some kind of silver lining here, 😁

even if the Renault didn't look entirely terrible during the race.

Before the crash, Alonso was actually ahead of both McLaren drivers,

which almost makes you feel like we might actually have the pace to compete with them. 🙏

😁☕
This is the thread I started 😍

Honestly, you’re going to make me feel like I need to travel back in time to 2005 or 2006, back when I first pointed out that this kid was destined to be a world champion. 😁

I’m holding out hope that someone gets disqualified at some point today so we can at least walk away with a single point.😁

Honestly, the only silver lining for us right now is seeing how Alonso's move past Kimi went down.🙏

I think I’m finally ready to start pulling for Red Bull😍

Now, let's see what happens 👋

Alonso 🙏 🙏 🙏
