PER with the deleted laptime

This has been an awful season for him. I think if he continues like this through next year they'll find someone to replace him (and it won't be RIC)

[โ€“] breakerfall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Put him RIC in the ~~Toro Rosso~~ ~~Roro Tosso~~ Bed Rull next year.

[โ€“] toastedcaps@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

At least he has pace this weekend

[โ€“] regal@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He is still in second place in the championship and brings a lot of sponsorship money. Max will be champinon and red bull will win the constructors this year. Unless the other teams catch up, I'm not sure red bull would risk replacing him with an unknown quantity or with someone who could really challenge Max before 2024. He will probably be gone after that though (end of his current contract)

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I think they give him next season, and at the end of the contract they just won't renew and can promote Yuki (or Lawson if he's really as fast as they say)

There's no reason for them to break the contract early and it'd only hurt them

[โ€“] lackthought@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I say give Yuki a shot next year, he has been improving and is more consistent

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm inclined to agree. Yuki has matured a ton and you can see it in his driving. I'm worried it's still a little too early, but at a certain point it's sink or swim

[โ€“] lackthought@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

don't think De Vries is going to make it to the end of the season

he isn't the future at Red Bull anyway, might as well see what Lawson can do

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

He's looking terrible and has been all year. I started off thinking he'd get the whole year, but at this point it makes no sense to keep him in that car.

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Max not enjoying the track limits

Looks like the iRacing ones are accurate

[โ€“] melonpunk@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

It's so hard to get excited for a lap here as I'm just waiting for it to be deleted. These track limits are not making this fun. Cutting corners I can accept, but outside track limits in this case feel too much.

[โ€“] breakerfall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Good point... on the outside, the track construction should make it disadvantageous enough to stay on the tarmac.

[โ€“] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Unpopular opinion: FIA tried to solve this when they decided not to monitorize track limits in Bahrain 2021. But they received a lot of backslash, both from fans and from a certain team. So FIA decided instead to go for a more strict approach, and as a result, that certain team has a driver on P15. Karma.

[โ€“] lhx@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It should probably just be at least 2 wheels on the red and white curb for the last two corner exits.

[โ€“] jyter@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Perez missing Q3 for his fourth race in a row with whatโ€™s easily the fastest car on the grid is painful to watch.

He has seemed like a steady hand to back Max up who could be great on his best days, but where is this atrocious form coming from?

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Overdriving to compensate for being slower than max

I think it's a mental thing. He's a great driver on a good day, and has the race pace often to back that up. But when Max runs away with it Checo pushes himself harder

[โ€“] jalda@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Eliminated in Q2: RUS OCO PIA BOT PER

Pรฉrez outside Q3 for the 4th time in a row, this time due to track limits

[โ€“] wason@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Why did RUS get out? Track limits?

[โ€“] jalda@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Eliminated in Q1: TSU ZHO SAR MAG DEV

[โ€“] wason@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Track limits are going to determine who wins now?

[โ€“] Varyag@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Well, that was a long wait for the inevitable Max pole position. Even when trying to be conservative with the T9 track limits, he was still clear ahead of Charles that was pushing extra hard there. Speaking of those track limits, my impression is that the Red Bull Ring kerbs were designed with the track limits in mind that if you're on the red/white you're still in, and not specifically the white line. Oh well, they're the best drivers in the world, they can figure it out. Not like me fucking around in Assetto Corsa, 4 seconds off the pace.

Bottas pointing the wrong way with a car that won't go into neutral

That was quick

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Perez wowโ€ฆ

[โ€“] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Bottas spins in turn one

[โ€“] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Albon and Hamilton with the same lap time

[โ€“] wes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Took such a long time to take Verstappenโ€™s laptime away due to track limits.

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Bets on someone getting a Q1 lap deleted post session?

[โ€“] Aurix@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[โ€“] overtinker@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah I just tuned in and it seems like they weren't sure whether or not he can get it out of the grass himself. They might just be extra cautious with flags now given how bad they were with safety measures so far this season

[โ€“] iTipTurtles@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah looks like they were just making sure incase he was stuck fully

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Looked like BOT was stranded after a spin in T1, was looking like a mechanical problem. He got it restarted just after the RF was waved
