I’m actually digging this Red Bull strategy... 😁 they totally screwed over Webber, just to settle him for 9th...
honestly, he probably would've grabbed 8th if he hadn't tripped himself up with that driving error... 🤣

Kimi Räikkönen

I wonder what’s going on with Kimi Räikkönen lately... he looks a bit worried, doesn't he?😁

TBF1d on the machines, Fernando Alonso is just way better than Felipe Massa.

😬

man, he’s totally taking control here... ☕
Kimi might end up getting a penalty, and you just know Lewis is going to absolutely shred through every single tire he's got... ☕

Just saw a quick interview with the maestro earlier... he had microphones from RAI Sport, Sky Sports, and even BBC right in his face 😁

Why was Obrvan acting so sour at the press conference... man, what a mood killer... Hemić and Kimi are just there grinning away... I don't care if it's all just PR and marketing, at least they were actually enjoying themselves since they had front-row seats... but this guy? It’s like he was forced to be there against his will?? 🤷

What on earth is TBF1d doing? Has anyone ever bothered to tell his (supposedly "elite") driver that having the fastest car in the field is irrelevant if you can't nail your braking points? It doesn't matter how much power you have if you aren't slowing down early enough before a left-hander—or even a right one—to ensure you can actually hit the apex and start accelerating at the exit.🙈😂🤣>😁

This could turn into a total disaster if they end up bleeding time stuck behind a button during the race... 🤣

Jenson Button is just too slow. Move him aside. 😂😂😂

Oh yeah, I’m sure he’ll claim he was begging for that number one driver status next.🤣
Even Ferrari loves to sing that song about how their drivers are totally equal, despite everyone knowing damn well that Felipe Massa is just the number two driver...

Because they totally blew qualifying again.🤣
They dumped everything into qualifying this time, which means they're definitely going to be slower during the race than usual...
This time Ferrari won't have the best car on the track, and considering they'll get stuck in traffic after just a few laps, that's not exactly a huge win either...

Red Bull's tactics were spot on and Sebastian Vettel is in a great spot. The only issue is Jenson Button, who needs to be dealt with right at the start, then a win is basically in the bag.😁

But man, Red Bull really screwed up with Mark Webber, that's no small thing.🤦
And word is Vettel's brakes gave out too.🙂
Looks like someone might have been messing with each other's cars.😬 🤣

BTW, these tires are an absolute disgrace.👎
This isn't qualifying, it's embarrassing... just wait until we see what happens in the races when they bring out the supersofts.🤦

Your little darling is going to be singing you a song tomorrow—Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Räikkönen, and the rest of that pack trailing right behind him after just a few laps.😁
Waiting on that Button train. 😍😁

I really wish Hemi would take this one, but I just don't trust the crew over at Goodyear :S It'll most likely be Kimi 🙂 or maybe Vettel playing the second strategy card 😢

We’ll just have to wait and see which team actually nails the logistics when the real pressure hits. ☕

🤣

Don't get ahead of yourselves—it's not like Webber is going to pull some miracle move in China and jump fifteen spots through the field. It’s just not happening. ☕
It’s ours to share. 🙂

Ah, Is it just wishful thinking? Perhaps.. 😍

And I just have to wonder... which absolute genius over at McLaren decided it was a brilliant idea to send Jenson Button out on a tourist lap with a 2:05? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Red Bull Racing is probably taking a massive beating right now. McLaren absolutely tore them apart. 🙏
