Say What You Will About Alonso But Literally Promising Someone You'd Fuck Up Their Warm Up And Then Doing

I want ppl to have chemistry with me like the way the monaco track wall has chemistry with all these drivers😪✊🏽

They just can't resist the attraction can they😔

Guys. Hey. Wydm George's car was underweight. Guys.

Got illustrator and photoshop earlier today and I've been trying to figure it out..

Im starting to feel bad for Lando actually bcs wdym "who do you think we're racing" ?? Are you guys not the strategists????

Me when I'm watching sprint qualifying and nico rosberg starts talking (I already knew he was going to be there)

Jeddah GP

I'm knackered but I just finished watching the GP so here's the highlight reel

Another terrible week for Alpine, Estaban Ocon finishing outside of the points (P13) and Pierre Gasly forced to retire after a gearbox issue on lap one.

Lance Stroll, who was the only other driver to DNF, went into the barriers early into the race causing a yellow flag and a safety car.

"Can you bring it back Lance?" "No I'm in the f**cking wall"

Behind the safety car, everyone except Norris, Hamilton, Hulkenberg and Guanyu pit. Despite the pit-lane traffic, Perez managed to get away before Alonso. Leclerc had to wait a bit, but came out behind Perez. Norris led the lineup until lap 13, when he was overtaken by Verstappen with DRS.

Almost every driver boxing got chaotic quick, but no one had it as bad as Daniel Ricciardo who had a 45 second pit stop. It almost rivals the 52 second pit-stop Bottas had in Bahrain. The Aussie also spun out on Lap 49 for seemingly no reason, a depressing end to a frustrating weekend for him.

Bearman, of course the talk of the paddock these last few days, placed P7 in his first ever F1 race after qualifying P11, becoming the 68th driver to ever score points on debut! He was also voted driver of the day (48% of the vote) but will likely not be racing in Australia, as Sainz is set to recover by then.

"You're doing a mega job out there" - Ferrari to Bearman

"Just uh yeah, difficult to overtake. but uh…thank you. I really enjoyed it. It was so much fun." - Bearman after the race

Lando Norris, who joked in an earlier interview that he would have to jump start as the car was "so slow on the straights [they] can't even overtake," was seen accidentally jump starting. He was not penalised, as the sensors did not sense him crossing the border.

Piastri, on the other hand, was stuck behind a defending Hamilton. On two separate occasions, he gained enough to overtake, but went off into the run-off area and had to give the position back. Mclaren tried to appeal to the stewards when Hamilton was suspected to be moving under breaking, but no penalties were applied.

"That was Hamilton moving under breaking, that was almost an accident we're reporting it"

The fight ended anti-climatically when Hamilton had to box, coming out of the pits just behind Bearman and ending up behind Norris when Bearman moved up. This position was kept until the end of the race, with Norris finishing P8 and Hamilton P9. Norris did get a black and white flag for weaving, but no penalty. Piastri finished P4.

"They're killing us in the high speed!" - Hamilton about Oscar, who was gaining on him

"That's impressive through the high speed with him" - Hamilton about Norris

Talking about defending, Magnussen (who had 20 seconds worth of penalties after "causing a collision" with Albon in turn 4 and "leaving the track and gaining an advantage" in a separate incident) held back all the cars behind him for his teammate. This put Hulkenberg into the points, with Albon just missing out despite passing Tsunoda with a brilliant move.

"He's getting frustrated, to be honest here, behind Magnussen" - Vowles about Albon

Verstappen crossed the finish line in P1, making his 100th podium in F1 (only the 7th other driver to achieve this). The Red Bull engineers cheered for him and Perez from the balcony above the podium.

"...another fantastic weekend.." - Verstappen, after crossing the line (I couldn't hear the rest and I replayed it 3 times)

Perez and Leclerc finished behind him in P2 and P3 respectively.

All 4 Brits finished in a row (Russell in front of Bearman, Norris and Hamilton) and Sargent placed 14th, an improvement from his last weekend where the Williams seemed to have a lot of mechanical issues.

And that's it! The 2024 Saudi Arabian GP :)

I’m not crying, you are. 😭

Oscar: We were on the same flight

Alex: Did you travel together? Sleep together?

Oscar: We were in the same row actually

Fuckk okay nevermind i was too optimistic about that

Someone needs to bring the williams mechanics a care package because I think they all deserve one after the last few races specifically
