Poll: Official 2025 Azerbaijan Grand Prix Race Thread - Baku City Circuit - Race 17/24

[Trusty]

That has to brake failure or something.

Yeah. Didn't look like a lock up

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Piastri just not getting off the line there.

 

[uscool]

Good for the championship race if Norris can take advantage

 

[UTmaniac]

I think there where 2 jump starts watching Hamiltons onboard. Alonso and someone else

Lando?

 

[Mesai]

Just need 1 more McLaren DNF to add some spice to the WDC.

 

[utajoker]

Alonso reacts to piastri jump

 

[Vinno]

Yeah. Didn't look like a lock up

He just locks up.

 

[chrismscotland]

Alonso too, clearly just reacted to Piastri, imagine he'll get a penalty too

 

[imtoooldforthis]

Yikes, what a run of errors

 

[Trusty]

He just locks up.

You can see it from the replay just then that he does lock up but its still a weird one, even with a lock up that car should have slowed down more than that.

 

[chrismscotland]

Yeah. Didn't look like a lock up

You can see the left tyre locking, he just made a mess of it by the looks of it

How would that add spice to the championship when Oscar is already leading? Adding spice would be Norris closing the gap

 

[UTmaniac]

If Oscar jump started, will he have a penalty rolled over to next race?

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Alonso too, clearly just reacted to Piastri, imagine he'll get a penalty too

It's been 5 seconds for doing it this year, right?

 

[Scam]

Oh dear Oscar. How bizarre.

Funny how quickly we can get an onboard replay for that but not when drivers drive into each other?

That's adding spice for you. Get verstappen back in the game instead. :'D

 

[Mad_Jay]

This would be Landos chance to prove he has what it takes.

But how many times has he been in this sort of position? I can just seen him floating around the rear end of the top ten.

Race control - Incident involving Piastri noted - False Start - Moving before signal

Race control - Incident involving Alonso noted - False Start - Moving before signal

Yeah I think so

 

[Kenai]

Norris needs to get a podium as a minimum here otherwise this will be a massive wasted opportunity for him.
