Poll: Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2021, Imola - Race 2/23

[Flibster]

Stroll's rear brakes on fire going down the pit lane and Vettel's rear brakes smoking.

Sounds like Aston Martin build quality to me.

 

[muon]

Radar shows its a one off shower though.

 

[Merlin5]

If they have to start on inters/wets, we'll miss out on the fun and games of Perez starting on theoretically faster tyres and needing to get into P1.

This.

 

[Psycho Ned]

How has that happened?!

Literally just drove out of the garage!

 

[el_dazza]

Might as well just smash his front wing with a sledgehammer in the garage and save going out and getting wet!

In Russia, car spins you!

I was going to say we should run a sweepstake on how many corners he'll last but everyone would be clamouring to get 1

 

[Flibster]

Wow. Stroll's cake tin's around the rear brakes are a bit charred...

 

[Flibster]

How has that happened?!

Literally just drove out of the garage!

Guessing it's a system/setup failure. It's on both cars.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Inters I assume then?

 

[Flibster]

Right, time to make coffee....

 

[Merlin5]

Wow. Stroll's cake tin's around the rear brakes are a bit charred...

Yeah, they just showed the mechanic on the cake tin, big hole in it.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Looks safe on that roof!

Looks like nearly wet tyre conditions.

Not sure I’d want to the best the first person into some of those corners.

 

[Merlin5]

Lucky neighbours with that view of the track from their houses.

 

[el_dazza]

Looks safe on that roof!

Looks like nearly wet tyre conditions.

This is half the fun, if the other half of the track is bone dry then the wets will burn up mega quick. This has the potential to be rather exciting.

 

[Mr Jack]

Looks like rain has covered the rest of the course. Inters all round, I reckon.

 

[Flibster]

The **** is that trophy?!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Well, that’s how you do a national anthem.

 

[Flibster]

Oh he's belting the anthem good and proper.

Yup. Nice one.

Here comes the Frecce Tricolori.

 

[Kenai]

Will probably turn into a lottery as it dries, wouldn't be surprised to see Bottas try and switch to dry tyres early to grab an advantage and gain a few places

Suddenly bottas could be useful.

 

[Merlin5]

Great voice. Waiting for him to say 'go compare'.
