It’s not because of the technical issue Charles had, it’s because the cars stop in the pit lane deliberately.

Having a rule about that doesn’t stop the lap delta rule either, you can have both.

I think the fia are doing it correctly and they are in agreement that the status quo is fine as it is better than any alternatives. I can't see what the problem is really..

Perez is gonna win the sprint.

 

[Feek]

This feels wrong. An actual race at 11:00

I don’t know why the onscreen graphics have been slow to appear during this race weekend.

 

[SpartaP]

Come on Norris!!

 

[Stu999]

That DRS is ridiculous. Norris made up about half a second in that one straight.

 

[SpartaP]

Wow, this is brilliant!

 

[chrismscotland]

I always think the double drs zone here is a bit much, but does make for some decent overtaking

 

[SpartaP]

Watching Max onboard overtake against Norris, great move!

I don’t know why the onscreen graphic hits have been slow to appear during this race weekend.

What the hell lap are we on? They haven’t shown it for 3-4 laps on Sky currently?

 

[chrismscotland]

Race seems to have pretty much petered out now

12 now, commentators just said.

Well the Sky graphics team have logged off

 

[Stu999]

I think the best hope for the race tomorrow will be Max having a poor qualifying or being overtaken by a couple of cars off the start so the DRS keeps him honest. Otherwise he looks too fast. Has a 2 second gap now.

What happened to the times and position UI? Have no idea Wtf is going on in this sprint outside if what's shown on camera...

Oh, they’re back. Nearly half the race without the flaming graphics is a bit much.

 

[Stu999]

Perez is absolutely nowhere.

Edit - I think McLaren missed a trick by allowing their drivers to race, rather than working together.

 

[chrismscotland]

Aston Martin nowhere as well, what's happened to Alonso recently?

 

[Stumble Bum]

Max is just too good.
