F1 2024

[Mike Hoxbig]

I confine my opinion to racing not idiocy

He was also involved in a decent battle for last place with KMag

But there were some interesting things happening. Let's not turn it into one of those "Max won again therefore boring" races...

Agree to disagree really - this one doesn’t stand out as a race worth much discussion post this weekend.

Not memorable in that sense but not exactly a snooze fest. There was some decent action. Stroll crashing under safety car lol, he never fails to amaze...

Yeah I agree. I enjoyed the race. I think Hamilton is falling deeper and deeper into a dark hole and this year will just be pain for him.

Lando did good, Max was super dominant, just the way he pilled on the seconds during Sprint and race day was insane. Perez looked a little slow this weekend, Alonso looked fantastic, he continues to amaze me at that age. Ferrari's not quite on it this weekend.

Let me not even get into that little fart stain of a Stroll.. Jassas please can someone get some balls and tell his Dad to send him somewhere else. At this point it is becoming embarrassing and I get the feeling he is the running joke down the grid too.

Man it is sad to watch F1 these days. Every race we have to listen to Hamilton complaining on his radio. It makes for this whole negative atmosphere. Maybe why some of his fanboys find every race boring.

Yirre! Are you gonna blame everyone else but yourself?

A furious Daniel Ricciardo has lashed out at Lance Stroll following their collision​

One of these days he is going to piss of the wrong guy and get moered inside his garage. Please slam into Yuki or Max.

3 place penalty in next race for Richardo. Is Massi a steward now?

 

[UrBaN963]

The irony of Ricciardo getting the 3 place penalty because he couldn't serve his penalty in the race because Stroll destroyed him from behind is quite something.

They're happy to ignore a time penalty if you retire. What happened here?

Not sure exactly. He had a penalty for overtaking Hul (or Mag?) under the safety car. But I'm not sure all the details.

Gotta serve the penalty regardless.

Not a time penalty. That gets written off.

f1 in general is becoming boring

if it wasnt for the fight for p2 which isnt even a trophy than alot would stop watching

ferrari competition

perez comp with mclaren and ferrari

ferrari vs mclaren

merc vs alonso

russell vs top 8

thats the only fun parts but soon this will also get boring ...max is in another league and cant fault him but its boring as furk

Perez, suzuka last year? It can only be added to their finishing time if they finish.

Agree. Without doubt he is the biggest whiner in F1 by a long shot. Literally every radio call, every interview. "The car is slow". We get it. Merc gets it. I bet they can't wait for him to leave now.

Im not a massive F1 fan but I do follow the results and watch the highlights. My question is how can this be "fixed"? Should this be addressed? You cannot really penalize a team/driver for pwning everyone else if they are not breaking the rules. The Red Bull team is just that good at the moment.

Ive seen a few muppets online crying that Max has the fastest car and thats the only reason why he is winning etc etc, but at the end of the day, in my limited opinion, he is doing a great job and he is showing considerable skill in handling said car. Lets be honest he is not winning by these massive margins just because his car is the best.

So, to reiterate my point, how do you level the playing field if one driver and his team just kicks ass (legally)?

You change the rules and regulations every so often

Maybe give the kakker teams a higher cost cap. I mean they got to catch up and then do some to try beat RB.

In MotoGP, there is a concession system in place that allows the 'lesser' teams additional testing and track time in order to get them up to speed.

Perhaps F1 could adopt a similar model. There is only so much a wind tunnel or simulator will tell you but nothing beats sorting out issues on the track.
