Mexican remix of the F1 theme is a certified banger

 

[Flibster]

I really don't get all the effort they put in for F1 in Mexico. Change the theme to a mariachi version? Can you imagine doing that for every race?

F1 in Germany - Eurorave or Ooopah band version
F1 in Italy - Opera
F1 in UK - Oasis or Spice Girls version
F1 in Japan - Bring on the hōgaku
F1 in France - Accordion or Europop

[Flibster]

Every 14 laps.

 

[Flibster]

And Tsunoda's out already.

 

[Flibster]

Perez up to P13, Piastri still in P17

Safety car deployed

 

[el_dazza]

Tsunoda is a disaster zone isn't he.

 

[Flibster]

Gasly pit radio - We can see a puncture mate

 

[AlphariusOmegan]

T1 carnage before they even got there

 

[iamtheoneneo]

lol good start.
Im fed up of everyone gripping over Tsunoda - he is utter trash.

 

[Flibster]

Colapinto pit radio - Max PU cooling. As much PU cooling as you can

 

[alchal]

All the talk about piastri...let's see.

Max showing why he's still leading the championship.

 

[booyaka]

could be a while under safety car as they need to move Albon as well
