Too early for George

What do I know Ric’s comeback is already on.

Russell out?

 

[chrismscotland]

Alpine obviously borrowing Ferrari's strategy team for the weekend

 

[chrismscotland]

Lol, Perez and Russell out, Danny Ric fastest

 

[Stu999]

Alpine LOL.

Good job Hulk. Didn’t realise he’d had two P6s in the last two races.

 

[Dougsnake]

Perfect timing for Danny Ric to be twisting the knife in Sergio's back.......

I'd love for him to have a podium car to compete with

 

[MCFC_ANDY]

wow great end to Q1

 

[I_M_Weasel]

Never been a fan of Perez, he’s bang average playing second fiddle to Max, as if RB would pay him back down the line. It works when RB are miles ahead

He had some good drives with midfield teams when exploiting a long tyre stratergies, but it hasn't turned into being a solid number 2 at a top team. I really don't understand why he got a new contract, he's had plenty of chances.

Maybe Mercedes don’t use Crowdstrike despite the sponsorship?

 

[Tigget]

Perez surely has to go now, all his own fault too, unacceptable level of consistent poor performances. I want to see decent drivers in all the front cars, especially when we have a tighter front end battle between multiple teams.

He needs booting out the sport not just Red bull

He is actually the worst driver in a top team I’ve ever come across, never seen anyone make so many mistakes so often and even when you forget the mistakes he’s still slow.

Just awful driver who was overrated by casuals who think a few decent results in a mid tier car makes you a top talent.

They did have problems yesterday, but presumably were able to quickly apply the workaround.

CrowdStrike-sponsored Mercedes F1 team hit by CrowdStrike outage

The Mercedes team was seen wearing shirts with CrowdStrike's name on it while addressing the problem, which originated from CrowdStrike itself.

Oh interesting, thanks.

 

[Mr Jack]

What happened to Russell? Trying to follow in an airport.

Don't know how Crowdstrike software updates, if its completely automatic etc . My old employer were very risk adverse about any updates inc Windows , didnt allow auto updates etc , surprised someone like Merc does, but you can say that about all those big companies that have been caught out.

What happened to Russell? Trying to follow in an airport.

Went out too early when track was still drying and didn’t have enough fuel to stay out.

track was drying and times dropping massively, didn't have enough fuel for a final run on the dry track
