New Ferrari bargeboards

 

[Düber]

Amazing that it makes such a difference, looks like they are just plonked down as if they needed somewhere to put them.

So I'm in need of some assistance gentlemen, I will be missing the Baku GP this Sunday due to a show my parents will be starring in at the Suidooster Fees. Anyone know if the race will on DSTV catch up? I'm using the DstvNow app on my android box. I need to see this race after the show, anyone that can help?

I thought all these little winglets and flip-ups had been banned under the new regulations...

FP1 canceled...............

A manhole cover on the racing line Wrecked George Russell's Williams so they have red flagged the session to secure all the Manhole covers again.

FIA have confirmed that the Session will not restart.

 

[Agent_Smith]

Lol, of all the teams for this to happen to...

 

[thestaggy]

The FIA and marshals began to carry out an inspection of drain covers around the circuit, with over 300 manhole covers at the Baku City Circuit.

Adding to the drama, the recovery crane carrying Russell’s car then collided with an overhead track bridge on its way back to the pitlane. It was announced shortly afterwards that the session would not be restarted.

I only see highlights packages online for past GPs so my suggestion would be to use your PC or Phone and head over to thepiratebay.org and search for it there.

If you can find a Sky stream SkyF1 are repeating the race at 10pm SA time.

If not on catchup, then there should be a rebroadcast sometime later in the evening (usually about 7 or 8pm). If you can avoid spoilers, then it should be like watching it live. I usually do this when I have golf or a run on Sunday and there's a gp on.

Sent an IM, I hope - the new forum calls it a conversation.

 

[thestaggy]

That must've hurt.

Looks like Leclerc may have lifted the cover before Russell came along. Russell saw it at the last minute but too late to avoid it.

Magnussen - tsk tsk

Stroll - LMA... actually it's not funny anymore. You can't drive.

Stroll has always been more dollars than ability.

That serrated wing could well be Ferraris secret weapon for the next two races.
I wonder how long it will take Mercedes to counter it.
