Hmm.. Perez out in Q1 and starts the race from somewhere in Carson City.

 

[Limejuice]

Oh fuck! Williams in the wall.

I hope Colapinto has his credit cards with him.

 

[1%er]

Oi Colapinto!!! your keeping me up

 

[Limejuice]

As we await Q3, Williams staff in Grove will be waking up the local Halfords store manager.

"Have you got any car parts? We're going to need all of them."

 

[Limejuice]

Colapinto's car gets returned to the garage in a sack.

Brundle comments it looks like a "skip-job".

 

[1%er]

Off to bed for a couple of hours, the dog will have us up by 6.30

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Hamilton You just knew after those top timings during free practice that it was never going to finish well.

 

[spitfire]

Qually replay starting now on Sky F1.

 

[spitfire]

Christ, that Colapinto crash made me wince.

 

[spitfire]

Everyone is fucking freezing.

 

[spitfire]

Yes George.

 

[dessiato]

Perez

Morning, all.

Sky being a bit "wow Vegas!", which doesn't sit too well with 5:30 a.m.

Martin's grid-walk: he can't find any of the 77 celebs who are supposed to be on the track.

Huzzaa!!!

 

[Limejuice]

Anthem watch:

An elaborate a capella rendition to disguise the fact the regime is transitting to pure depravity.

-78,000,000 / 10.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

That sphere is such an impressive piece of engineering.

 

[a_chap]

10pm? 10pm??!?!

 

[1%er]

3am here

 

[Limejuice]

Sad if Albon was knocked out by litter.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Fingers crossed we don't get a safety car to mess with George's lead.

 

[Limejuice]

I wouldn't like to be the person who tells Sainz he has a penalty for buggering up the pit entrance.

ETA: No penalty? Coo.

 

[1%er]

Fingers crossed we don't get a safety car to mess with George's lead.

Come on Lewis

 

[1%er]

Great race Lewis ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm off to bed

 

[Limejuice]

Great race Lewis ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm off to bed

Sleep tight.

Bed bugs, etc.

 

[Limejuice]

So much hugging!

I mean, a manly handshake is in order, but hugging!

O tempora, o mores.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

I wouldn't want to hug someone who was wearing a crash helmet, looks painful.

 

[Limejuice]

With all the self-congratulation and self-love in the Red Bull team over Max x4, I wonder if anyone will remember to thank Adrian Newey.

Not so far.

Congratulations to Max on becoming a three times world champion, under the rules of the sport and a 4 times * world champion. Fair play, that race in Brazil was sublime and showed he can still battle when the chips are down and he hasn't got a car streaks ahead of the rest. Next season will be the big test for how great he really is, when he'll actually have some competition right the way through the season.
