F1 2022

Nico appears to have so much angst, it must have been rough to drive at Mercedes with Hamlet, at least he now has Bottas who understands. I'm really hoping Bottas finishes higher than him this season.

I'm surprised at how quickly Mclaren recovered. From near the back of the grid in the first race to 3rd at Imola.

I think they played their super performance bonus card for the year early this year. Last year they used it at Monza.

But seriously their car does better on certain tracks, like ones fewer low speed corners.

New track this week, also added a Miami starters group in case anyone still wants to join in the predictions: Carb F1 team on Superbru - F1 Predictor Game

I like the look of the track, except the stupid fake boats on painted "water":

Also WRT the bouncing this seems like such a simple solution I wonder how long it will take others to impliment.

Hoping for some typical Miami sudden rainstorms to shake up the weekend. Just not a Spa repeat please

This is fun. For the first time this season, we have a 6-horse race for poll.

 

[Areola Grande]

Sheesh, what a lap from Leglegg.

If there are 2 sets of rules in the wild we can always choose which ones to apply later if needed

Feels like FIA are favoring RB a little. I'm with Ferrari on this one.

“Following the eighth round of this year’s FIA Formula 1 World Championship, during which the phenomenon of aerodynamic oscillations (“porpoising”) of the new generation of Formula 1 cars, and the effect of this during and after the race on the physical condition of the drivers was once again visible, the FIA, as the governing body of the sport, has decided that, in the interests of the safety, it is necessary to intervene to require that the teams make the necessary adjustments to reduce or to eliminate this phenomenon,”

FIA intervenes to reduce F1 porpoising on safety grounds

The FIA has announced a new technical directive that will take steps to reduce the porpoising affecting the new generation of F1 cars on safety grounds.

So, predictions for Canada ?

 

[Areola Grande]

So, predictions for Canada ?

Latifi to do his part in showing off how safe and secure the Canadian barriers are.

LeGlegg to suffer some form of failure.

Lewis to beat George in quali but be taken out by a numpty.

Verstappen to win. Perez to outbrake himself somewhere and go off, losing a spot or two and finishing 3rd.

Sainz for a podium.

Mick to finish 15th.

Best about WFH is that I can stream this during meetings.

And yes, I have 2 subs and can watch cricket at the same time.

 

[rinners]

When they come to Kyalami will it count as the start of the race when the start lights go off from load shedding?
