Genie Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 It’s all setup for a snoozefest. Mclarens can’t compete with the Red Bull (although closer than the were before). 2nd hardest track to pass on and the risk of rain seems to have gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Thank god for that fight back from Norris, without that this could easily have been the worst race of the year. 2024 quite comfortably the worst season in recent memory, boring tracks and boring races, not good at all.

Genie Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 (edited) Awful race, Max’s tyres giving up slightly earlier than Lando’s gave a bit of excitement at the end but not great by a long shot. Max seemed comfortable out front until his tyres started to fade. The Merc’s also rans. Ferraris slightly better but don’t look like winners.

OutByEaster? Posted May 19 Moderator Share Posted May 19 Nice to see Max under a tiny bit of pressure and flapping like matrons skirt in a hurricane. I mean it'd be better to see him lose, but at least we got to see him make a pr*ck of himself again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 19 VT Supporter Share Posted May 19 The only good thing about that race was knowing the McLarens are genuinely quick. Another couple of laps and Lando could have had him. It’s encouraging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted May 21 Author Moderator Share Posted May 21 Yeah that one will be quickly forgotten. Pity Lando over-steered twice before the DRS detection zone or he would have had enough laps to do it. Credit to Stroll and Yuki picking up the leftovers. Actually thought Yuki looked like he could do more this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Thankfully the last two races have generated some interest, let’s hope it continues. Please can the TV production company stop messing with graphics for graphics sake. I dislike the status bar on the left, but worse than that was the incorporation of the stupid banners above the individual cars. Ruined the aesthetics of watching the cars on track, and I would have assumed that anyone still watching the recent borefests must be dedicated enough to know which car is which. Totally unnecessary, as is the in-cockpit, make you feel sick, camera view. At least I can get to Silverstone this year and enjoy the three days in the outdoors.

OutByEaster? Posted May 23 Moderator Share Posted May 23 So McLaren are going to run Benetton livery? I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Just been watching some of FP3 at Monaco. Seems like quali could be even more of a mess than usual. Cars going slow on the racing line in the tunnel, cars going slow and weaving after exiting the tunnel with cars on quick laps right behind and Rascasse becoming even more of a car park than usual. Just asking for a massive accident to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Perez has to be the worst driver on the grid. Back to back Q1 failures in the best car for years. He’s an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 A Max pole today would be his best ever. Alsonso disaster as well, the difference from last year to now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 If Leclerc doesn't finally win this one tomorrow than it's time to give it up fella. Should be better than the McLarens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
