David Wright
We don't know yet, but it's a penalty for sure if that was grass or gravel he wouldn't have made it and he didn't take the left side because he couldn't pass Kimi if he did, he's fucked.
do people watch abu dhabi? Everything is decided, the Track is shit and everyone wants it to be over.

Parker Smith
Is the worse than the Schumi/Ferrari days of dominance?
For me it is. I don't ever recall the pre-season wankery in those days where motorsport press would claim it was going to be competitive and would hype up other teams.
If not the best, he's most certainly the most entertaining driver of the top three teams. That he keeps completely humilliating his teammate is an added benfit
Nicholas Young
I stopped after /mag/ died fucking mandrama fags ruined everything and I'm still ding-dong diddly seething about it Keke
they were mentioning how there's usually a lot of dutch people show up to cheer him on and he says well that doesn't help it doesn't give the car more power. She says well surely it helps a little bit and he says no it doesn't
Hudson Lee
This is a weird season, three teams only got 1 car (Red Bull, Hass and Alfa) how is this even allowed.
What is the point of F1 in its current state? It is literally more stale than during Schumi's height. Not even the midfield is interesting.
Are they trying to kill it on purpose with their shitty regulations? >lets make it hybrid with the knowledge that only one single constructor has been developing this technology 3-4 years prior, surely that will make for a fun viewing experience!
Hamilton with a 12 second gap fucking 10 laps into the race. There is no point to watch this for the racing anymore, none of the constructors are even in the same league, might as well start mixing F3/F2/F1 cars together. The only reason to watch is for the slim chance that something goes completely wrong and Grosjean takes out a third of the cars on turn 1 or so, failing a major upset like that the races are mindbogglingly boring.
They managed to make a sport about cars going over 300kmh fucking boring, that to me is a more impressive achievement than Hamilton breaking WCS records.

Chase Powell
>if i can just make it back to the pits it should all be ok
Anthony Reyes
There is no point.
Hamilton wins every race. Bottas comes second and awkwardly gives shitty excuses as to why he came 2nd in the same car during the postrace interviews Vettel is angry at the world and everyone is at fault but him for his underwhelming performance Lekek rubs salt into Vettel's wounds with a big grin Verstappen finishes where he starts Gasly embarrasses self by being the only person on the grid to never finish anywhere near his teammate Grosjean either DNFs or wrecks the race in turn 1, also complains that is never his fault despite always being the only common denominator Cyka Blyat desperately races his heart out to not be redemoted etc. etc.
Race in race out, I didn't even watch todays race and I am pretty sure 90% of what I just said holds true.
To be fair to Ruth he was fucked anyway, too slow on the softs to make a difference, so they went for a long stint on the hards.
Two stopping would have left him last.
Sebastian Wood
This semen-slurping sport is already in a sad state. Last thing we need is penalties for every overtake that is not 100% clean
Carter Gutierrez
Should be s lam dunk penalty then but why bother listening to the stewards or the FIA in general? They are corrupt and/or useless.
James Young
no, it will be even warmer here
Wyatt Gonzalez

Problem is the track, had there been gravel or grass Ricciardo wouldn't have made it, a natural penalty no steward action needed, but since the track is just drive anywhere you want you need the penalties.
Dominic Ramirez
It's a stupid reddit meme

Why? F1.0 is Hamilton, F1.1 is Bottas, F1.25 is Rari and RB. Everyone else is just unable to compete in any way

Mmmm why did Ricc not get a penalty? Is the decision out? First on Fat john, then on Lando and Gimi, same shit thrice.
Nathan Cox
quite like to see VET return to RB if I'm being honest
Imagine being bottas, trying to escape the shadow called lewis's lapdog, succeeding twice this season, once barely, only to enter a bigger shadow called average driver who is 12 seconds behind his teammate after 10 laps, just because your finn hand-eye coordination sucks Now imagine being ferrari, making a car that's suitable for racetracks which have at least 3-4kms purely in straights. You know whatever downforce and suspension updates you try to do you're fucked. Imagine being RB, having the fastest driver but your sushi car doesn't allow him to gain on anyone, while you signed the absolute most exposed driver. Truly, things couldn't have been worse this season. Screw toto and lewis

>now you remember sophiaposting before Carrie arrived.
Bottas worse shit is his attitude, a lap dog to Hamilton and Toto who always obeys, Rosberg was slow sometimes too, but at least he raced and didn't obey team orders, and when Hamilton was clear faster, Rosberg hitted him on his way through to fuck him up.
Mason Allen
>fuck 'em all, how does that sound
sounds to me he's on pretty high damage control, but otherwise based, pilled, etc.
Jayden White
>10 sec penalty +5 for pushing Lando out of the track (4 wheels out too) and +5 for gaining advantage on Kimi with 4 wheels of the track
i think the last lap incident in th emidfield is the perfect example of why f1 should be raced with walls, gravel traps, and grass, instead of in a fucking parking lot with paint on it. that could have only happened on paul ricard
>manages to qualify with essentially the same time as Hamilton, can literally see the gust of wind that blew his rear wide causing him to lose the few hundreds difference >in the actual race 18 second difference wewlad, he is just not that great a driver when compared to Hamilton

Angel Foster
The last Ferrari race winner. The last Ferrari WDC. On the team for the last two Ferrari WCC.
Can the FiA please, PLEASE come back to real earth and actual reality and make some regulations that make some fucking sense? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD THIS SHIT IS SO FUCKING BORING RIGHT NOW. I am saying this as someone who has been following F1 for about 30 years now. This was quite possibly the most boring race I have ever witnessed. Did anyone even overtake anyone? All I saw was Hamilton lap a bunch of the tier 3 teams.
Tactics where instead of racing, you pit TWO laps before the end for fresh tyres so you can at least get a point for fastest lap. LITERALLY GIVING UP ON RACING AND GOING, "welp, no point in this anymore, might as well just try to cheese that last point" how fucking retarded do the rules have to be that it encourages that sort of behaviour.
Basically no wheel to wheel racing ever, 6 second gaps or more between cars for most of the race.
FiA interferes with penalties far too often and far too harshly. You get pushed of the track? Better slam those brakes and give up 3 positions before you enter the track again or else a 5 second penalty awaits you
Making the dumbest judgement on when to inform who about rule enforcement. Canada GP was actually quite fun for a change with Hamilton pressuring Vettel, but boy the moment he the Ham Man heard Vettel got a 5 second penalty he just backed the fuck off and that was it, race dead form that point forward. By all means inform the teams, but why does the driver have to be informed of these penalties in real time, all it ever does is kill the racing. FUCK OFF.
This used to be about cars going fast, rivalries between drivers, drama on and off track. Now it is all about which team can fiddle their way through the rules the best.
Even dumb shit like Barichello stopping on the track to let Schumi pass him is preferable to this snoozefest, at least that caused massive drama.
Not, not really finbro, it is called statistics, they tend to not lie. Shit has never been so stale in F1 ever.
There is so little overtaking now that the teams might as well be racing on different days and just timetrial it, there is barely any interaction anymore anyway.
Jackson James
fellow dutch anons why do you have minorities in your studio
Anthony Reed
It's a high speed course ferrari should win
Nathaniel Ross
He's right though, it's not just rose tinted specs. This season really has been fucking diabolical so far with some of the most insipid, sterile races I've ever seen in many years of watching F1.
Connor Howard
Double dubs confirmed Yenson temporary replace Gassy until next year
New idea. Tracks have retractable obstacles that pop up at random (with a warning of course) that disturb usual racing lines. You don't now which obstacles will pop up when, but ever lap will be slightly different. Obstacles could range from a chicane to wetness on the track to really had crosswinds etc.. Also every driver gets a fighter jet styled chaff release button that they can use once during a race to release vision obscuring chaff behind them to thwart overtake maneuvers.
>Tracks have retractable obstacles that pop up at random (with a warning of course) that disturb usual racing lines so more williams cars?
Christian Williams
FACT Formula mEme was shit but it was better shit than F1 shit
Brayden Sullivan
the reality is F1 is too predictable for teams, they have it all planned out on computer before they even turn up how about >random tyre compounds >random starting fuel (could be full race distance or half or 10%) >race distance itself can be +/-10% >car sensors can only be read in the pits >everyone must use Ferrari's race simulation software
Zachary Miller
After Gasly's recent "performance", how do you rate Brendon Hartley?

Basically every race is the malaysian grand prix
David Campbell
10 years ago I wasn't nostalgic for 20 years before that, some things were better, some things were worse, but I enjoyed the races of 10 years ago pretty much equally as those of 20 years before that. So no, it is not nostalgia, racing these days is just garbage, FiA rules and regulations kill actual racing. This is something drivers have been warning us for, for decades, but it has actually become reality now.

Nathan Morris
i would love to see a weight handicap or success ballast system in place. it's not a totally out there suggestion, series like super GT have had it for ages.
i see a couple of different ways it could be realized. you could hand out weight for the race according to the qualifying position for the top 10. you could also hand out weight for every championship point. got 88 points in the standings? enjoy your 8.8 kg.
i mean, again, it's not totally out there. i believe it has never been used in F1, but other series have used it to their own respective benefit.
Josiah Martinez

I would welcome days in which telemetry data would only be allowed to be read during pits. Also no more pitwall changing of settings. If a driver sees red because his rival is cockblocking him give him the power to put his car into partymode and go ham with all the consequences that come with it.
There is just too much infetterence (if that is a word) on track from people not actually on the track, as you say everything is calculated before the race. Worse still is that everything is calculated DURING the race too and settings adapted in real time in accordance with the readings.
I want a driver to have to judge the limits of his car, not to be told by the wall that 8th gear has a problem so to avoid shifting into it and that the brakes are nearly at critical heat so to reduce the pace slightly and oh btw you need to move your left ass cheek 2 cm forward to keep the car in perfect harmony.
then waking up for the last half of the final lap only for the TV director to show Leclerc's failed attempt at Bottas and not showing all the shenanigans with Norris, Ric, and Gimi

cars get lighter as fuel is burned off, hence the fastest will be right at the end any decent driver only needs one lap

>the women's wc is more entertaining than f1 Well, obviously. They might be shit at football, but at least a select few of them are cute. Can't say that about any of the F1 drivers.
I don't understand why he bitches over radio about this shit. Literally in the last 5 laps, perfect race all race long, 20 second lead "WAAAH, X IS STARTING TO WEAR!".
1) It happens every race, with his epxerience you'd think he would be fine with it by now 2) The team can see all of this stuff without him yammering over radio about it, in fact they can see it more clearly than he can and long before him.
Why does he have to be such a dramaqueen?
Dramadive Hamilton Grumpy Bottas Angry Vettel
Is this really the best F1 has to offer these days?
Please just put Max in the merc so we can have a grinning smug winner every race who knows he has the superior car, doesn;t whine about it and just owns up to it. "I am in the best car and I am loving demolishing my opponents".
I feel sorry for whoever has this job. Having to sift through all that garbage material to somehow somewhere find "highlights". Can't even fallback onto showing shots of hot pit girls like they used to.

Ian Evans
and now both of you remember it was the FiA regulations that put RB in topdog position, and it was FiA regulations again that knocked them out of it and put merc in that spot.
FiA was a mistake. Despite all the jokes NASCAR and/or indy500 are more interesting to watch as of right now. Ya the tracks are comparatively speaking boring as shit, but at the end of the day I watch racing to watch the cars race, not to stare at a pretty track, and right now there is no racing in F1. Can start calling it Formula None soon.
Jace Thompson
Indy car would be pretty good if they would have nice circuits
I saw Vettel at a grocery store in Maranello yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Aha, so wie Du das jetzt machst?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Hä?” but he kept cutting me off and going “HÄ? HÄ? HÄ?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Signore, devi prima pagare per quelli.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually to “impedire infetterenze elettriche” and then turned around and showed me the Vettel finger. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Lincoln Cruz
wow that was super rude of him
Jeremiah Lee
Agreed, but currently I still enjoy both more than F1. There is wheel to wheel racing, finishes are tight, races are exciting, there is the proverbial blood sweat and tears and you can sense it during the entire race. Can't say I get that from F1 anymore, especially now that even the commentators (at least the German and English ones) are essentially admittingthe WDC WCC is decided already and the entire race long they make tired jokes about mercedes being topdog and races being boring without stepping to much out of line with their comments scared of the repercussions. Hell, they were nearly on the verge of telling you to not bother anymore and to tune back in next week for Austria, and they probably would have said exactly that if it werent for contracts and shit. Ridiculous.

Why can't they just give every team tyres from the same manufacturer, engines from the same manufacturer and chassis from the same manufacturer, and then scrapheap challenge style before every race they get friday and saturday to tinker and tweak things.
I mean, the already do it with the tyres, just do the same with engines and chassis. The constructors can compete on who can engineer the best result given the same resources.
Instead they introduce hybrid engines knowing full well the only constructor on the grid to have actually any proper experience in high performance hybrids was Mercedes. Not only are the races this year predictable, it was predictable that they would become predictable.

Don't forget that he's the same guy who, when Red Bull had about 50% of the dominance he enjoys right now, that he'd not want to win like Vettel, with a dominant car and unchallenged. Who always dismissed anyone but his own achievments as being down to the car, whil probably having the most competitive machinery over his career of any racer in history. He's the most dishonest guy in the sport and has been for a long time. Nothing he says can be taken at face value, especially not when it comes to biggening up his own achievments.
To be fair he's that high only because of his retarded mistakes (Australia and Baku, for example). While it IS bad, it's not as bad as, say Gasly, Kubica or Giovinazzi, who are consistently fucking shit
Jeremiah Thompson
>2014 Jo, Lee and Palmer Champion Vanslow runner up (Rookie)

Other 2009 gems, Button started 2019 Mercedes's like, but then he sucked the rest of the year with only a few podiums, Barrichello had his big chance but wasted it only winning a few races.
Red Bull rised but Vettel was too erratic to make it happen.
Massa got hit in the head and would turn into the Barrichello we all know today.
Mclaren and Ferrari got a late rise in performance, with Kimi and Lewis getting wins and both were separated by 1 point again at the end of the season.
Luca Badoer was pretty much Raghunathan driving a Ferrari.
Piquet Jr got fired but got his revenge revealing the crashgate and cementing Briatore status as cheater, Alonso did his usual dindu nuffin.

Already am one I'll continue to come here to bitch about the state of F1 Yes Let me know when he starts driving for a team that matters again, that, or when he is so disgruntled he start doing gimi shit again
I hope they come up with regulations that heavily favour the T3 teams, but that the T3 teams still lose because they simply don't have the budget to abuse the regulations. I want to see those poor teams almost taste victory but have it snatched from them all the same.
