If you’re using AppleTV, you can link your F1TV app to your AppleTV account and use it instead. I highly recommend it, because the AppleTV app is trash, and the F1 “section” is even worse.
A lot of people are complaining about this regulation. I agree with the drivers that they should have more control and some regulations regarding deployment and recharging should be fixed, but the racing is much better than the DRS era.
And Verstappen has to drive a shitbox for the first time in his career. I’m not surprised he was making noise about quitting after two whole races.
Great race! Exciting from start to finish! Max was sort of a prick, but nothing too serious. Leclerc with a last lap spin. Good times!
Also, I’m loving the flippity wings on the Ferrari’s and now also the red bulls. But I loath that the media has glommed on to calling it “macarena wing”
Say what you will about Max, but that was a proper display of car control on the first lap.
I feel bad for Charles, but really, forth or sixth, what’s the difference? I think I heard Lewis mentioned once, maybe twice.
You can feel worse for Leclerc…
Well, he had a good first lap.
Good sprint race in Montreal. Didn’t work out for Kimi, but it wasn’t for lack of trying. Nice to see that the McLaren can be competitive against Mercedes as well.
Probably a wet track today (Sunday) for Montreal’s race. The start delay until 4 pm (so not conflicting with the Indy 500) may cut down the chances of rain. Cold weather (12 C or 54 F) - will be miserable being a spectator.
There is also problems with wildlife on the track. Raccoons and groundhogs abound in the area - attempts are being made to humanely remove them to a nearby area.
The 500 was red-flagged for drizzle for about 15 minutes, but has resumed and is at lap 127 right now. (3:03 EDT)
A frontal boundary is on its way and will likely stop the race for at least 30 minutes if they don’t just say the hell with it and checker flag it.
Red-flagged, and the front is now less than 15 miles away and approaching rapidly; they’ll need to clear the track and get the green flag dropped ASAP, or it will be red-flagged (or checkered as said) for an hour+.
I’ve been watching on the Speed cam feed on YouTube, because I can’t watch the regular broadcast live, and it’s a lot more interesting and exciting.
Great race! Absolutely gutted for Russel. But that hamstappen fight was great too! Well earned won for the teenager.
The car. The car can be competitive. The team, not so much.
Yeah, that was pretty good. I feel that if George hadn’t broke, those two would have eventually taken each other out. Nice points haul for Ferrari.
“hamstappen”…
I approve!
It looks like my speedy internet has passed the test.
