Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2021Formula 1

[Veinz]

The trophy looks nice.

Pourchaire is fine according to Fred Vasseur who talked to him on phone, he plan to drive next week.

Good to hear! But I'm more worried about Fittipaldi tbh. Let's hope we get similar news about him soon.

 

[McLaren]

"Unofficial info: Enzo is fine but with a broken ankle. I saw him walk out consciously onto the stretcher."

 

[BrainsBush]

Here we go! Enjoy the race. May the best one win.

 

[Veinz]

Can we just get rid of the Brian Tyler theme song now?

[Veinz]

I haven’t been this nervous for a long time.

 

[phillgt2002]

I've been waiting in anticipation for this GP.

 

[GingerBredMan]

After much debate over whether or not I was going to watch the race... I can't find it on cable. Maybe Karma I guess

 

[phillgt2002]

One thing - this is my first time watching a grand prix on US cable TV since I was a child... the advertisements on ESPN are atrocious. Just pathetic.

If you've ever wanted a proper sign for something, it doesn't get much clearer than this

You might be right, can't remember the last time I couldn't find a race on TV, probably back in the Bernie days.

 

[Fat Tyre]

Let's hope for no Turn one chaos. Settle down Max!!!

 

[barak181]

I'm predicting a DNF for either Max or Lewis.

 

[McLaren]

People commenting elsewhere about Bottas hitting Max, and it was nearly Checo.

 

[Liquid]

Excellent start by Bottas. Right when the team needed it.

 

[PaMu1337]

Yuki decides he wants to live

 

[phillgt2002]

This track is absolutely insane.

 

[Grayfox]

No crashes on Turn 1.
Lucky

 

[Jezza819]

Wow, a clean opening lap. I wouldn't have thought that.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Surpassed my expectations so far. There were some passes. Let's see how things go after things settle down.

 

[Fat Tyre]

Russell pulled a Bottas and lost 3 places on the start.

Incident with Stroll it seems

 

[phillgt2002]

Leclerc's intuition in the first corner was fantastic, along with his defending of the position.

 

[PaMu1337]

Wow, Yuki just fully pushed Ocon into the wall

 

[McLaren]

Leclerc's intuition in the first corner was fantastic, along with his defending of the position.

That replay was crazy. He came really close to that back tire clipping the wall as they came out of the turn.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Is this going to be like Baku 2016 where the F1 drivers saw the F2 guys being bats*** crazy and deciding to keep it clean in response, and therefore leading to a dull GP?

 

[PaMu1337]

Looks like Verstappen is not able to follow closely enough to get in DRS range

 

[Grayfox]

Bottas wants Lewis to "Be Faster"

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Only a few cars are within DRS range.
