Poll: Russian Grand Prix 2021, Sochi - Race 15

[Terminal_Boy]

Its been proven time and again that using Bottas as a moving roadblock for Max offers next to no advantage .

Bottas will slow Verstappen for 1-2 corners.

Anyone watch the 007 piece on sky? Was a good watch.

It's recorded, was making a bacon and egg buttie.

 

[Flibster]

Ooh, anthem time.

Russian anthem is usually a cracking one.

 

[Flibster]

Wait what? Of course.. no Anthem as russia were very naughty.

Looks like Brundle hasn't bothered to show up for work again.

Is he getting bored or is Sky purposely phasing him out?

Bit ridiculous, we'll have a race in Russia, call it the 'Russian grand prix' but won't play the anthem?!

 

[Mr Jack]

Okay, can we replace all of the pre-race anthems with some slightly bonkers cultural thing like this?

Bit of Morris dancing round the pole sitters car at Silverstone.

Feels highly rare we get a grid interview with the pole sitter!

Go on strike at the French grand prix...

22°C Track Temperature

19°C Air Temperature

Risk of rain for F1 race is 70%

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Little to no chance of rain today? I pray for extremely difficult conditions!
I’m guessing it’ll be a good first half but second half, probably less enjoyable.
Hoping Bottas can go out and race, rather than being a moving wall.

Edit: My slow posting, Flibster already with the weather report!

 

[Flibster]

Hamilton pit radio - So Lewis, the rain that we're seeing on the forecast there, on the radar rather. There is a little bit that may come towards the very beginning of the race, but it may just miss up. It's sort of fizzling out, just very unpredictable at the moment.

 

[Flibster]

Sainz radio - Where will the rain hit first? Which corner?

Pit - Turn 5 turn 6. Probably light rain expected.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Only got 2 more races at this place before the race moves to St Petersburg, hopefully can't be worse than this track!

 

[spook2575]

Looking forward to this race start! Doubt bottas will hold max up much

 

[Flibster]

Stroll radio - Make sure you use the pit board, I might not hear you very well.

Pit (with a lot of static) - copy that.

 

[Flibster]

Verstappen radio - My battery is just draining, I don't know what's going on.

 

[el_dazza]

Oh don't say Max has issues already ffs

Phew, all ok.

 

[englishpremier]

That is dirty by Fernando he planned that.
