FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRIAN GRAND PRIX 2024 ....Sprint Shootout.... ▄▀▄▀▄▀ SPOILERS ▄▀▄▀▄▀

Sprint??? Lance resigned all in one weekend?? Nooooooooooooo

 

I think I'm going to start boycotting the sprints.

 

I like the sprints. No phoney “tire management” or contrived pit stops. Just racing. Races should be won on the track with pure speed, not in the pits or by nursing tires.

Viva sprints!

 

C’mon Sergeant! Get out there and show us what you got!

 

RB looking real strong today

 

one of them is

 

All hail the return of single-lap qualifying.

 

Ferrari is attempting the no lap qualifying apparently...

 

So we’re both slow AND unreliable now, is that it?

 

Gap is pretty large after 2nd, wonder how much of a setup diff between nor and Oscar

 

ok so this was gp qualy? or sprint. I forgot which way it is

 

Sprint quali.

 

We suck again!

 

Naomi wins the eyelash qualy

 

What happened to Leclerc's car in the pit lane? I didn't catch on the broadcast what caused him to stop.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

He is an inspiring 'under-dog' lol

 

The floor Ferrari introduced at Spain seems highly problematic, and actually a downgrade.

They're going to have to consider reverting back to the hold spec if this weekend they're behind Mercedes again.

 

Apparently the car stalled and then took a while to start again (but with no external intervention); probably some electrical gremlins.

 

Exactly like the floor they brought in France 2022.
Improving global downforce but deteriorating the global balance of the car.
They have not just the competences right now to be at the very top.
Sad but true.

 

looks like even reliability issue is here to add to the woes and the one lap gap even grown

another tough weekend
