US Embassy Austria (Indianapolis Motor Speedway) Race: July 8th–10th, 2022

Mercedes-Benz!?

I guess we're all just sitting here waiting to see what Tot has to say about this whole mess, and who he ends up pointing the finger at for this disaster.

The champ basically cruised through qualifying... good luck tomorrow to the title contenders

Max, Max, Max, he is truly the absolute king! 🎉 🎉 🎉

I missed the Third Qualifying Session, so I'll have to catch the replay once I get home.

What on earth is going on with Mercedes-Benz? They actually looked pretty solid during the First Qualifying Session and the Second Qualifying Session.

What on earth is going on with Mercedes-Benz? They looked perfectly competitive during the First Qualifying Session and the Second Qualifying Session.

Both of them slammed straight into the wall.

Max🙏 is quite the driver🙏
He left Sergio Perez half a second behind again, and on a track this short at that🙏

Haas is looking incredibly sharp today. I’d say Mick is finally finding his rhythm.

All aboard the Steiner ship 🎉

If Max runs into any kind of car trouble, I guess the only person who could actually pull off a win against him would be Lewis Hamilton. But even then, he’d probably need a car that's basically a rocket on wheels to make it happen.

And just wait until they bring those upgrades to the race in Austin!!
Let's go, Schumacher!!

Spot on!

A sudden gust of crosswind caught Lewis Hamilton and sent him flying right off the track.

George Russell’s car was bouncing violently before he eventually lost control and slid out...

Man, Carlos is absolutely killing it again.

Vamooos

I don't really get it—everyone steps off the track for a second and suddenly their lap times are being wiped.

Then you've got Perez coming out in the Second Qualifying Session, and they actually want to go investigate things after the session is over. 🤷
It’s not exactly rocket science—you could see exactly how he performed.

Max should be able to cruise to a victory here quite easily, judging by how dominant he was during those qualifying sessions.

Even if Ferrari finds themselves in a position to actually challenge him, they're far too sloppy to turn that opportunity into an actual win...

Then Perez gets knocked out in the Second Qualifying Session and they start "investigating" everything after the session ends🤷
It's not like it's some science, you could totally see how he went off.

The thing is, they're monitoring track limits at turns 9 and 10, but Perez (if I'm remembering right) went over the limit at turn 8, which they didn't even say they were watching.

So, I was just thinking, Lando Norris seems to have this weird pattern where he always hits a DNF during the 11th race of the season, and since Austria is the 11th one this year... 🙂

Sergio Perez P10 or maybe even Position 12. He’s definitely getting a penalty.

Sergio Perez P13

And absolutely nothing for George Russell.
