Please sack Latifi now. Don't wait, he's not only a liability to Williams, but he's a hazard to other drivers.
 
What's the reason for the safety car?
 
Not sure why this warrants a SC
 
And sad news as the crashy Williams has been retired.
 
What is it with these minute+ delays before SC is deployed? Once or twice you could put it down to indecision, but now it's seeming deliberate when it's obvious one is needed.
 
That car was in a sketchy spot with a broken wheel.
 
Latifi retires...

I wouldn't say it's obvious now, but the delays are getting ridiculous, yes
 
Ah so they probably thought it could be moved out quickly, but nope.

Looks like it was waiting until they could actually collect the leader.

Most likely it was indecision while they worked out if the car could be cleared with hands (VSC) or a tractor (SC). With the wheel damage, that needs a tractor.
Of course, at a normal club event that car can be manhandled under double yellows and it would have been cleared before the SC was even called, buuuuuut FIA...

One has to wonder, how he still has super license points.
 
Is it me, or did Albon's rear wing look wonky after the Lap 1 spin?

That never used to bother them though, they called them right away in years gone by and still do so in practice sessions.
 
How many laps to you reckon we actually get through? 55-56?

SL is only to get into F1, once you do that's it. Unless you're so bad that they take it away. Like Yuji Ide.

At the current rate it's only about 50, but should get a bit higher as the track dries

He's no Murray Walker.
 
I can see Verstappen going to slicks early, in a case of "not much to lose"
 
Place your bets about Ferrari and their pitstops.

Longshot bet is that Sainz ends up getting pitted by the Alpha Tauri team accidentally.
 
So which lap are we predicting PER gets told to let VER past?
