F1 2022

[Epico]

There were times last year when I wondered how good Latifi actually was bearing in mind that his team mate was being bigged up as the next big thing, but he's had an absolute shocking start to the season.

 

[Indeliblelink]

And we all remember how he ended last season.

Just watched the C4 highlights, very tight!

The commentator has an annoying habit of saying "cut the beam" for crossing the finishing line. He is annoying me.

It's a shame Alonso spanked the wall.

I'd love to see him mixing it in the first couple of rows on the grid. If Mac and Leclonk think they're the bee's knees at wheel-to-wheel racing, they ain't seen age and cunning like Alonso.

Anthem watch: Simple, passionate, with a hint of belligerance - like a 16.5% Shiraz.

Performed by a lady dressed like a muppet with a nasal blockage. 4/10.

Which idiot put Australia so far away, it's far too early to be up on a Sunday...

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Why is Brundle not doing the grid walk any more? Was always the best part of the build-up, but anyone else doing it is rubbish.

He's just finished. He was doing it earlier. I think he's just legged it to the commentary box.

We are guaranteed so action with Alonso and Sainz coming through the field

 

[Limejuice]

The hard tyres are ...

Never mind. Sainz out.

 

[Limejuice]

Nice to see gravel doing what it was intended to.

 

[Limejuice]

Wonder how Max will get on with the "new" restart rules.

If Mercedes had left Lewis out for 1 more lap, get in there Grorge

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Worked out well for Russell.

Yep. Go George, go!

I want to see George attack Max, this could be interesting with Grorge having newer tyres

I'd pay to see that. Oh , wait...

I have Sky. I AM paying to see that!

Max out.

Hahahahaha.

I mean, shame.

Too tired to do the maths but could Mercedes be leading the constructors championship if it finishes like this

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Leclerc for driver of the day for sure, done a great job all race.

No, they're 40 points behind, so with Leclerc's 25 26 on top of that they'll still be top.

Mazepin, surely.

He hasn't spun or crashed all weekend...

Charlie for the title?

George on the podium!!!

Great to see Grorge get a podium
