June 15Jun 15 Couldn't agree more w/ her. I like waking up whenever, getting myself going and then firing up the dvr to watch my races first thing Sunday morning. Used to like staying up late to watch the opener in Oz, but they've fucked that up for me.
June 15Jun 15 Yep. I now associate Sunday morning with F1. Got shit to do or golf to watch in the afternoon.

June 15Jun 15 Switching back and forth between US Open. Not much is happening so far. Leclerc is pissed about strategy.
June 15Jun 15 no idea how they didn't touch going down the first part of the straight lucky to not cut down piastri's tire Edited June 15Jun 15 by elfenix
June 15Jun 15 Just now, texas08 said: Great job taking it like a man Norris. Agreed. He owned up to the stupidity.
June 15Jun 15 Lando doesn’t have the mental makeup or wheel to wheel composure to be a world champion right now. He might be able to get there someday, but this season won’t make it any easier for him.

TIL there’s a magical strategy that makes up for being drastically slower than your teammate. Lewis started on mediums and had no pace. There was no way to avoid pitting him into traffic. He just wasn’t fast enough to gap the back marker hard runners in his first stint.
June 15Jun 15 Eating dinner at the beach. Found the race on Austria TV. Walked in and saw Norris fuck himself. Very bad i wish there was a way to go Green/White/Checkered

Keeping him out on the mediums would’ve been worse. I should not have blamed their strategy today. I didn’t know his car was damaged when I originally posted. Apparently the groundhog put a hole in the floor. Solid little animal.

June 15Jun 15 Eating brunch in a restaurant watching the race and the looks of all the Ferrari supporters whenever we would get yet another episode of F1's version of "Charles in Charge" was priceless. Love the unintentional comedy between Charles and his engineer. Lando is a fucking moron and doesn't not have the temperament to win a title. He has talent, he wants to be good, and then he gets nervous and shits himself again and again and again. Finally, where can I can get a t-shirt that reads" We aren't testing, we are racing." That is a mantra to live by from Fernando.
June 15Jun 15 Author Lando is just not as good of a driver as PIA. Obviously not as good as Max or Leclerc and honestly don't think he's better than George. If he can't beat Oscar in the same machinery does he try and take a leap to another car a la Danny Ric? Does he stick with McLaren? Either way, couldnt happen to a better guy.

It wasn't a late brake. Later than normal (everyone was conserving tires, so) but definitely under control. It was showing the excellent driving by Piastri in the duel. He was late on the brake vs Norris, nobody is calling Piastri the last of the late brakers. I'm the last person here who is going to support Norris btw. Edited June 16Jun 16 by NoName
June 16Jun 16 Piastri has the patience to be a champion. He didn’t fight for 3rd at the start of the race. He was patient and I think he could have gotten third if McLaren had told Lando to back off. McLaren cost themselves a podium (and points due to Lando being a moron) on Sunday.
June 16Jun 16 14 hours ago, NoName said: I look at this picture and it so perfectly sums up that Lando is not only unaware of his physical situation on a track, but he was completely unaware of the situation involving the standings in the driver's race other than he is behind Oscar. As goofyboy pointed out, Oscar has shown so much more patience than Lando on the track and in race situations as they impact the standings. If Lando doesn't try to make the above pass he most likely finishes 4th which is 10 points for him. If Lando does make the pass that nets he 2 extra points with a chance he does catch Kimi. At the most the move nets him 5 points if he does execute two clean passes. I know the argument about how important 1 point can be in the driver's race, but there is no math that works out where the risk of that outside pass where half your car is on the grass is acceptable when you consider what is to be gained for you and your team and the potential that McLaren could have lost both drivers because of an incredibly stupid and immature decision.

It wasn't a late brake. Later than normal (everyone was conserving tires, so) but definitely under control. I think the point is to highlight Oscar's great driving. He outbraked Lando in the chicane to regain the lead, which led to Lando binning himself.

"It was feeling pretty decent up until then. And then, I didn't see it happen, but obviously I heard I hit a groundhog," said Hamilton. "So that's devastating. I love animals, and I'm so sad about it. That's horrible. That's never happened to me here before. "It's never nice to see that - I just hope it didn't suffer."

I race for them, you know, every single weekend. I try and do well for them, more than I often try and do well for myself.
June 17Jun 17 Wait, the groundhog thing wasn't a joke? I just thought everyone was trying to be clever.
