Sky sports just straight up talking about how Sauber hasn't scored a single point and how their current changes haven't paid off as they're RIGHT OUTSIDE their garage... it's kind of depressing to watch atp I hope Zhou gets a point tomorrow
Ok so the Nico curse wasn't broken, Lewis was just the exception 😭😭
WHAT DID I SAY?! WHAT DID I SAY!!!! HE WON 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Mark Webber rn
Piastri is leading rn which means he's going to win today. You heard it here first btw 🧡
Nico Rosberg talking about Checo’s mental health, how important a driver’s mentality can be, how it would be stupid to put a rookie in the other red bull, how Hulk has deserved better cars than he got and Hulkstappen friendship, how Hungary has always been one of Lewis’s favourite tracks and talking about his records once again, how he only calls James Vowles by his surname because that’s how James referred to him, how he’s consistently praising drivers rather than criticising them (especially George).
Real F1 commentary is back. Here’s hoping we see more of him this weekend!
P9... is still in Q3!! And he improved on the final lap!! We take what we can 💪💪
WAIT WE'RE SO BACK
What is happening in the house of commons...
He just keeps haunting the narrative doesn't he

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I AM HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THAT LOGAN SARGEANT IS NOW P20 IN THE STANDINGS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Didn't get a video but here's Lewis's post-race interview speech:
"Since 2021 Ive just, everyday, getting up trying to fight to train to put my mind to the task and work as hard as i can with this amazing team. And this is my last race here at the British Grand Prix with this team. So i wanted to win this so much for them, because I love them, I appreciate them so much because of all the hard work they've been putting in all these years. I'm very grateful to everyone in this team everyone at Mercedes and all our partners, and otherwise to all our incredible fans. I can see you lap by lap as I was coming round and there's just no greater feeling than to finish at the front."
"A big big thank you to everyone back at the factory and here. I love you guys, god bless you."
> gets a 50 place grid penalty for switching engines
> starts P20
> retires before the race even starts due to a gearbox issue
I would hate to be Pierre Gasly rn 😭😭
Here is everything that every driver has said about the Max-Lando contact in Austria 2024:
Nico did take the time to look at the incident again. 'Verstappen didn't swerve towards Lando and he also left Norris a car width of space. And on the left there was a kerb and a large run-off zone, no wall. I think the stewards have intervened quite a bit in Austria, more than usual and maybe a little too much even,' the German concludes.
Yuki also does not think Verstappen's action in Spielberg was too harsh and explains: "To be honest, everyone does that." The world champion did not drive dangerously and it was not "moving under braking." It is completely normal to put "a little pressure" on the other driver and not let him overtake voluntarily. And contact can sometimes occur, says Tsunoda. He also believes that there would have been no penalty if there had not been contact in the same situation. "That's part of racing," says the Japanese driver.
Lando himself said: "Honestly, I don't think he needed to apologise. Some of the things I said in the pen after the race were more just because I was frustrated at the time, a lot of adrenaline, a lot of emotions and I probably said some things I didn't necessarily believe in, especially later on in the week.
Daniel said: “I think the contact, that can happen probably nine times out of 10 with no consequence... But I think the outcome was bigger than probably what was actually happening on track. From what I saw, at least nothing seemed over the top. Was it pushing the edge? Probably. But was anything dangerous or reckless? At least from what I've seen, no.”
George said: "Max will push the rules to the limits…as most of the top drivers do!"
Kevin said: "Max paid the price already by having a puncture. So I think some of the things they should just let the drivers sort it out in a natural way, it works out in other racing series very well, IndyCar, Sportscars and in the US, they have that approach and it works out well. The racing is tough over there, everyone understands the rules and it's more simple."
Checo said: "I think Max pushes every single bit to the limit as many top drivers do and when you're racing him it's gonna be a hard and fair battles."
Starting to accept the fact that maybe I’m a George Russell fan
It wasn't a Max or Lando win, but a secret third option (a George Russell win)
"Some of these teams have more people in media and hospitality than haas has in it's entire team" is a BRUTAL comment 😭😭
10 milliseconds off of Q3… Lowkey devastating but we do what we can 🫠
not perfect because this is the first drawing i’ve done in like a year but here’s daniel’s 2018 chinese gp win 🍯🦡
