Zhou's incident was pretty scary for me.  Like most of us, I watched his car in the initial shot, inverted and scudding across the gravel.  I was very surprised his car didn't lose more energy than it did.  Glad all are okay.

Chalk another win up for the halo, ugly as it is. 

And another for the F2 crash between Nissany & Hauger this past weekend.

Over/under of Ferrari firing their strategists during the break?
 

Seems Merc has finally got their shit together. And glad they let things happen organically at the end vs imposing team orders.

Stoned to death with hard compound tires? 🤣

Been watching F1 for 20 years. Never seen the level of strange calls that Ferrari is making now.

It’s bizarre. Last couple races it’s like they’ve been trying (hard) to get themselves OFF the podium. Maybe Binotto has some sort of behind the scenes super secret squirrel Euro deal with Toto or something. 🤔

[GrndPndr]

Yep, it sure seems like Ferrari has shot themselves in both feet at this point.  The championship is out for them, they can only hope to beat Merc.  Is there a trend here?

Great race yesterday from 3rd place down. Congrats to Fernando for representing the old guys. Where the hell did Aston Martin just come from? Also a solid showing at Williams which was solidly mid pack. Points for Albon and a good finish for the new Yank, Sergeant, who beat all of his rookie competitors. Shaping up to be an interesting season with some potential upsetters in the field. Not sure if anyone has the pace to chase down the Bulls though.

Agreed.  I was basically watching everyone except MV, and that worked out pretty well.  I found it interesting that Sky did not even interview MV in their post-race show.

Toto basically said they were screwed until a new car can be built, he added that it was their worst race.  Sorry about that Toto!

Not exactly F1 but still fun to make fun of Ferrari.

 

[Majestik Møøse]

Can’t figure out why someone that has Ferrari money would spend it on that. Same with that Lamborghini Urus. Looks like a Lexus, but with Italian reliability.

[HuggyU2]

Because when you have Ferrari Money, that's not the only car you have.

This might change the viewer experience for those not able to attend live. Pretty amazing that a drone can mostly keep up.

Until it loses link, smacks into a driver and causes a pile up.

Also, in F1 Drama, why would Horner dick pic another woman when he married to Ginger Spice?

Yay someone besides Max won!  Things are looking on the up and up for Ferrari.  Where does everyone think Sainz will land next year?
