Mercs doing Q1 on mediums. Are they planning soft tyre then hard tyre in the race? That'll probably be an unusual choice.

Wow, tight times.
Education is that which allows a nation free, independent, reputable life, and function as a high society; or it condemns it to captivity and poverty.

Tsunoda should calm down. What an annoying and childish behavior every weekend.

Probably S/M/H 2-stopper. Just like RB.

I doubt a 1-stopper will be competitive enough.

Can't remember a tighter qualifying session as we've just seen in Q1. So exciting to watch!

Stable rules have a habit of doing that. Everytime there is a massive rules / concept change, things spread out. With stable rules, over time, the mid pack and back marker teams make gains relative to the front.

It’s a bit of an allusion though, as it looks closer on paper than it is. A spec class is like that, .3 may look close, but it’s a mile away at the same time.

Tsunoda already flopping, not even able to replicate Gasly or Albon's first few races. Plus he has a bad attitude and is constantly swearing on the radio. Not impressed since his first go out in Bahrain.

They didn’t run Medium in FP3 so this was probably practice for Q2

I was thinking the same thing actually. Was quite excited about him in Bahrain, but not since.

Personally I think they should start handing out fines or penalties to drivers for excessive swearing over the radio. Heat of the moment is fine but not just a string of expletives after the horse has bolted.

It was amusing once, but not so much the second, third, or fourth, or...

Why penalties? Can't you handle it? Aren't you a grown person? If he swears too much the only problem it creates is for him as his team won't be impressed (unless he overperforms consistently) and might get rid of him.

Are people such a snowflakes (and I might add hypocrites) these days? :roll:

Mr tough guy throwing around the “snowflake” term while simultaneously being triggered by people complaining about Yuki’s outbursts... :roll:

I think people handle it just fine, it’s just annoying.
