about using wag promotion for f1 academy...i seriously have nothing against influencers or models and seriously good on them if they genuinely care about and support the series.
but i mean wouldn't it have made more sense to get lily muni he or tiffany cromwell to do the promo if they wanted wags...yk like the actual professional athletes. or why not consider women who are in motorsport but aren't given the recognition as interviewers or even the wags such as the mechanics who may get lost in the crowd or the pr team who constantly chase after the drivers in the background.
even if it isn't it just comes off disingenuous and reeks of paid promo. which usually wouldn't be a problem but its an odd direction f1 academy should be going for their image.
GP and Helmut were betting on whether or not Max would get pole?? And GP bet AGAINST him and lost £50 ???? 😭😭😭
Thoughts on monaco as an overall race track?
I usually don't like street circuits but as an overall race track, I do think Monaco is pretty good. I like how challenging the circuit is with the elevation changes and the tight hairpin turn, and also it's just nice to look at.
The race this year was boring because the pit stops under the red flag meant a lull in strategy and movement in the top 10 spots. The size of the cars and the narrowness of the track doesn't help either since it's now nearly impossible to overtake without risking contact.
But I don't think this makes the circuit itself bad. Qualifying was great, other motorsports (and formula feeder series) have raced with more entertaining results, and even if it's notoriously hard to overtake there's usually better strategy to make up for it.
I think smaller/narrower cars would definitely make the race more competitive, but I don't see that happening in the near future. A change in layout to make it possible to overtake more in certain turns would be helpful too, but I'm no track designer though so I've got no clue if that's actually possible.
If I'm super honest, I would trade Monaco for the return of tracks like Sepang. But by itself, it can definitely be enjoyable and I like it.
A summary of the Saudi Arabian GP! You’ll never believe who won this one
Well that's Yuki starting P10, with Daniel directly behind in P11 (and he'll have a set of new softs). That's a good result for Daniel and puts Vcarb in the best possible position to try and make it into the points tomorrow!
I really hope this result is a sign that the new floor has helped Daniel, and once they actually get a bit more time to bed in the setup Daniel will be back on track.
hey hi hello omg MAX P1 OMG WE LITERALLY PREDICTED THIS SHIT IM SO HYPED GRABBING UR HANDS AND JUMPING AND DOWN RN GIGGLING
