Holy shit, Logan Sargeant Q3 lets gooo

[–] greyfrog 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wasn't really expecting much higher than 10th from him in Q3, so this isn't that bad if they can lineup tomorrow without taking any grid penalties

Logan better than Lewis, you read it here first! /s

American dethrones British king of F1! USA! USA! USA!

This didn't age well...

Nice two first two rows, with for different teams. Love it!

Edit: even better: 6 different teams at the first 3 rows :)

McLarens and Williams loving the wet again

[–] espentan 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Mhm, and also high downforce, low speed tracks (relatively speaking).

[–] bhmnscmm 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Am I misremembering? I thought Williams' strong suite was high speed tracks before the break.

Either way, Albon is always good in wet conditions.

Yay Williams! Nice going..

HAM beaten by SGT, time to retire πŸ’€

/S

[–] greyfrog 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So happy to see Sergeant make it into Q3, even with the crash. It'll be good for his confidence.

This weekend has been awesome so far and I'm not just saying that because I'm a Williams fan.

That's what.. someone said.

[–] Gsicht 6 points 1 year ago

That heli cam with the speed information is fantastic!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ferraris are looking strange today. Locking up and sliding eveywhere

[–] bhmnscmm 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's at least the third time that's happened to Leclerc today.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Between the two of them they have missed the first corner 4+? Times.

This could just be an extension of leclerc's habbit of pushing beyond what is possible

[–] bhmnscmm 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could be, but he was on a cool down lap, right?

I think he was on a cool down one or two other times too. This is definitely a bit odd.

Leclerc has about had it with Ferrari..

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

When is he out of contract?

[–] espentan 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] bhmnscmm 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Were those rumors about his post 2024 Ferrari contract several weeks ago ever confirmed?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

They need to clean house with their strategy department

[–] espentan 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sainz, realizing McLaren will be a threat, tries to innocently take them out. Clever.

Edit: Well, right now Ferrari are only a threat to themselves.

[–] espentan 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Albon and that Williams really love these conditions, on this track.

[–] bhmnscmm 2 points 1 year ago

I'm so happy to see McLaren making a strong showing after the last few years. Excluding Redbull, I think the second half of the season is theirs to lose.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is this the first Q2 for Sargeant?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Alex Jacques just said this is his 3rd Q2 appearance

[–] espentan 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I was wondering the same thing.. think it might be.

Edit: 3rd time, apparently.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Shortest Q3 debut for anyone?

Edit: couldn't find stats. I remember at least one driver crashing in Q2 but making it through for the first time though.

[–] lazycouchpotato 4 points 1 year ago

Both Williams in Q3!

[–] espentan 4 points 1 year ago

The difference between Max and Perez is similar to the difference between Albon and Logan.

[–] bhmnscmm 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kinda surprised to hear the optimism about Ricciardo coming back next year despite the injury.

[–] espentan 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Do we know how severe the injury is, yet? It didn't seem that bad, and it would be harsh to dismiss him for missing a couple of races this season. If Lawson wins today, he might be in trouble, though.

What did Leclerc set on the top of the car before he removed the wheel?

It sort of looked like a Ferrari branded tape measure.

[–] BURN 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Seatbelt buckle. All the harnesses clip into one central point on F1 belts iirc. I think it’s normally left attached to one of the over the shoulder belts

[–] bhmnscmm 2 points 1 year ago

Ah, you're definitely right. I had no idea they could be removed entirely, I thought they were permanently attached to one of the straps.

[–] hal_5700X 2 points 1 year ago

Both Williams made it into Q3. Lets go!

[–] bhmnscmm 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe rain will come during the red flag and Williams will lock out the front row? Please? I'm desperate.
