So Vettel made the right decision to move. Poor Alonso.

Remember when everyone was saying Ferrari won't be competitive until 2017, like, three months ago?

 

[Deadman]

Watching on some dodgy hotel wifi that keeps buffering.


Mclaren coverage unaffected.

So Vettel made the right decision to move. Poor Alonso.

Let's wait a couple of months for McLaren's inevitable improvements that do jack squat.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Wow at Bottas.

Wooooow at Mercedes...

 

[Pimpwerx]

Merc are starting to flex a bit. .7s on the slower tire. No doubt scrubbed. PEACE.

 

[Mohonky]

Honda might reach Q2.

Way more than expected.

Dunno, its a big ask, theres a whole 2 cars to lose from Q3

Not for the right reasons tho. Pretty much the best of the rest right now.

 

[RoKKeR]

I had forgotten that NBCSN has more commercial breaks than actual F1 footage. Ugh.

 

[Mobius 1]

Well... Surprise!

 

[Paradise Brunch]

Mercedes are faster 0.7s with slower tyres... At this rate they might overlap the rest of entire team during raceday.

 

[yami4ct]

I had forgotten that NBCSN has more commercial breaks than actual F1 footage. Ugh.

They aren't too bad during the actual race, but Quali is pretty bad.

 

[Mohonky]

That wolf whistle lol.

 

[Tubie]

I had forgotten that NBCSN has more commercial breaks than actual F1 footage. Ugh.

Univision has no commercials in the US.

 

[Shaneus]

Holy shit Verstappen third! Jesus!

 

[Aiii]

Go Max go!

 

[ramparter]

Seriously how did Ferrari managed to turn things around?

 

[hamchan]

Young Max showing why they fastlaned him.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Univision has no commercials in the US.

I don't think they air qualies. PEACE.

 

[Juicy Bob]

A fucking 17 year old is third fastest...

 

[Mobius 1]

Mercedes will end up with a .9 advantage or more.

 

[yami4ct]

Holy shit Verstappen third! Jesus!

If Toro Rosso can pull that performance off with the Renault power unit, what's Red Bull's excuse?

 

[Sloane]

Not for the right reasons tho. Pretty much the best of the rest right now.

Well, they seem to be at least as fast as Williams and a (working) Red Bull.

 

[Tubie]

I don't think they air qualies. PEACE.

Watching them right now, dunno about the race tho.

 

[Pimpwerx]

I wish I'd kept my initial pick of str, but I had doubts about their reliability. So I went with lotus instead. PEACE.

 

[Leunam]

When I was 17 I was struggling to get a decent grade in high school chemistry, not putting in Q2 quality times in an F1 car.

 

[hamchan]

McLaren... yeesh.

 

[Ryne]

McLaren can stop sandbagging now.

 

[Draconian]

Holy crap McLaren.

 

[jey_16]

BAHHHHAAAAAHHHAA.....McLaren dead last!!!!

 

[Staab]

Goddamn McLaren, goddamn

 

[Tubie]

So the Hondas won't get to Q2.

Holy shit lol.

 

[Aiii]

They removed the flag graphic for drivers on their in lap at the end of the session, fucking booooooo!

 

[Mobius 1]

Senna must be weeping, wherever he is. What a fucking fraud McLaren has been.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Congratulations on the worst driver move in recent times, Fernando

 

[Shaneus]

If Toro Rosso can pull that performance off with the Renault power unit, what's Red Bull's excuse?

That's what I'm thinking! I can only assume the aero is too tight on the PU and causing it grief. STR are usually more conservative, yes?

 

[yami4ct]

McLaren can't pull out of Q1? Holy shit, they're worse than I even expected.

 

[Sloane]

Fucking McLaren.

 

[Hasney]

Holy shit Verstappen third! Jesus!

 

[RoKKeR]

McLarennnnnnnnnnnnn.

 

[Mohonky]

..........and the Mclaren confirmed to be the biggest turd going.

Mclaren should have just bought some Porsche 918's and lapped them instead.

Alonso to go into coma.

 

[Kahoona]

Well, that Honda engine didn't burst in to flames at least.

 

[theignoramus]

Poor form from Mclaren, but its a long season. Im glad Alonso is spared that embarrassment of a car this weekend though

 

[Foshy]

ahahahahahahahaha mclaren

 

[Mobius 1]

That didn't take long hahah

 

[Pimpwerx]

Watching them right now, dunno about the race tho.

Huh. Where? Is it regular univision or a sports channel? PEACE.

 

[Lach]

Peter Sauber at the track. Let's hope he's there to fire some management people...

 

[Tubie]

It's time for Button to shine in Malaysia.

Right my Brit bros?

 

[Shaneus]

I actually feel sorry for Button and Alonso/Magnussen. Even below Sauber and FI?

Also, who are the teams running Renault now? Is it only RBR and STR?

 

[yami4ct]

That's what I'm thinking! I can only assume the aero is too tight on the PU and causing it grief. STR are usually more conservative, yes?

It's only my second season watching, so my detail knowledge is low, but that sure sounds like something I've heard before.

 

[Tubie]

Huh. Where? Is it regular univision or a sports channel? PEACE.

The regular Univision channel on DISH.
