Canadian Grand Prix (Indianapolis Motor Speedway) July 31, 2011

not even close

but things are starting to heat up for Louis! 😁

He was celebrating way too early, but he’s absolutely crushing it today 😁😁

Ferrari finally made a move... it was about damn time, honestly—now if they could just figure out how to actually show up during qualifying, we might actually see something happening. 🙏

Mark completely wrecked it. 🤦

Man, Lewis Hamilton is absolutely insane and just on another level!! 😍

😬

What happened? I totally missed that.
The track was already looking greasy at that one turn earlier today.
(Fetl went down at the exact same spot 😬)

He absolutely smashed his front wing into pieces on one of those turns, but that was about it. Just limped his way back to the pits himself.

Top five in under half a second... looks promising 🙂

Man, if qualifying sessions looked anything like this, it would be absolutely fantastic. It isn't even about the specific grid positions, but rather those time gaps—everything looks so incredibly tight and competitive.

Edward Howard2 said:Alright, I just hopped online to throw some cash at the sportsbook because I’ve got this crazy gut feeling that I'm going to sweep the board today. 😁Anyway, just wanted to pop in and say hey to everyone while I'm at it...

The weather here in Budapest is absolutely killer. Just a light little breeze blowing through to keep things from getting too hot. Perfect. 😍 Unless things take a massive turn around here, you guys are gonna be staring at nothing but bright sunshine over at the US Embassy Canada : D

Don't go thinking the weather forecasts were totally off base or anything... I mean, it actually rained. It was pouring the whole way there on Thursday until about... 62 miles Just before we hit Indianapolis. Man, Friday night was absolutely wild. The sky just opened up—total chaos with heavy downpours, thunder, and lightning flashing everywhere. It didn't let up either; the rain kept coming down steadily until about 6 or 7 on Saturday morning.

I feel right at home here. Honestly, it’s basically a massive gathering of Renault fans. 😍Man, there's a huge crowd of Americans out there, though honestly, I think a good chunk of them have had one too many drinks already lol. You’ve got some Russians in the mix too. There are plenty of Ferrari fans everywhere, while everyone else is basically just hard to find. Spotted a Williams fan out in the wild! I actually took a quick photo of him just to have a little souvenir. I'll drop the pic here once I'm back.... 😬

If you're feeling totally lost on what to bet on... just put your money on an Alonso win, Kubica grabbing a podium, and Petrov scoring some points. You can't lose with that one, honestly. ☕️

I’m gonna head over toward the track in a bit. I've already got my Fedex package sorted... everything's good to go! 😁 What happens if Massa decides to go rogue and just ignores his team orders? 😬

Hey there! What's up? 👋

I totally promised I’d get this to you guys last year, so I wanted to make sure I actually followed through. Didn't want anyone thinking I was just making stuff up or being someone who breaks their word! 😁



Man, I've got a feeling about this one. I’m calling it now: I'm expecting a massive win from Fernando Alonso the day after tomorrow! ☕

Karun is such a killer commentator. He’s actually dialed in and really gets all those deep F1 nuances and "theory" behind the racing!👍

Maria Lopez said:man, seriously...

it’s actually dropping here, and hey, we aren't exactly far from the US Embassy Canada either.😳

Man, this race is actually gonna be loaded with some pretty cool milestones

Jenson Button hitting his 200th start
Nico Rosberg reaching the big 100
And Fernando Alonso's 30th outing behind the wheel for Ferrari

Even if they celebrate with a podium like: Alonso 1st, Button 2nd, and Rosberg 3rd😁

Looks like everyone finished testing with full fuel loads and ran their race simulations.🙏

Finally, Red Bull is back at the top where they belong.😁
They’ve brought upgrades too, and apparently, Red Bull's top speed in the DRS zones is already outclassing both Ferrari and McLaren.👋

It looks like they're heading toward total dominance.🤣

Let's go! It looks like our guy will be starting from P2 tomorrow.🙂

The practice sessions are looking incredibly promising.

with some upgrades making their top speed in the DRS zones superior to both Ferrari and McLaren 👋

Now they just need to find some guts😉

They brought some upgrades too—Red Bull’s top speed through the DRS zones is looking better than both Ferrari and McLaren.👋

They're cruising toward total dominance here.🤣

Honestly, they probably just cranked the drag reduction to the absolute limit, which explains why the RBR looks so much more "competitive" on the straights.🤷
