Poll: Bahrain Grand Prix 2021, Sakhir - Race 1/23

[Kenai]

Reading the PDF linked above, the fact that cars both in front of him and behind him responded as per the stewards expectations is what has ultimately led to them dishing out the punishment

If there’s any possibility that Seb didn’t see the panels or flags it’s up to the team to notify the driver. I’d really expect some sort of automated system to beep in a drivers ear if they’re approaching a mini sector with a yellow or double yellow.

Just seen video of a flashing yellow light that he drove past, so not so harsh actually. Safety first.

Nice segment paying tribute to Murray Walker

The end of that tribute got me.

The end to that segment, genuine eye sweating moment

I think it's harsh, especially as the report even says that he slowed.

Me too I can't believe its almost 20 years since he retired!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Looks windy.

Bahrain national anthem, has the first few notes that still makes me think of Star wars...

Looks like Liberty Media have very cleverly reigned back the Lewis show by making them all do this #weraceasone line. It means Lewis isn't the middle of F1 with his BLM vitriol and making things a little contentious.

Max for the win today!

I wish they'd just scrap it to be honest; we've had a year of it

Max for me aswell.

Interesting what McLaren do too.

 

[chrismscotland]

Yeah Max for me too unless Red Bull screw it up; interesting to see what the race pace looks like through the grid though too

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Max for me, although I’m looking forward to red bull having to react to being chased and Max finally having the pressure on him. I quite like his honesty too - yes, we can win this from pole. It’s not going to help having two mercs behind him.

How many times are they going to show bottas hitting ham at turn 1. Has there really not been much action at this track

 

[Yaayuh!]

Dis gon b gud.

(I hope)

 

[Stumble Bum]

Come on Maximus

 

[Kenai]

As much as it'll be a change, how disappointed will everyone be if Max just vanishes into the distance and there's absolutely no competition again

It'll be constant whinging on here, just like the Vettel days.
