Poll: Official 2024 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix Thread - Corniche Circuit, Jeddah - Round 2

McLaren looks slower than the Merc in a straight line even with DRS.

Wonder if Hamilton is using the battery in defense at that point as well as the poor drs

There’s an overtake award now?

They need to create something that someone other than Max can win

Magnussen pit radio - You need to go more slowly, keeping the cars behind you, behind. We've been given another 10 second penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage. So the only way for the team to get something out of this is for you to do as we've asked.

Magnussen - Yeah, copy that. Understood.

 

[Kautya]

Whats the life on the mediums ? 28 laps look's like a lot.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Feel like we're going to see a crash of frustration behind Magnussen soon. A lot of cars there.

 

[Chabsy]

A safety car now would make things interesting.

 

[Stu999]

That looked dodgy from KMag, surely he forced Yuki off. What a whopper.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

All this is good for Ricciardo, he can catch up and not look as slow.

Dunno why everyone thought the second coming was returning last year when he came back, he was bang average at Renault and trash at Mclaren yet a year out of F1 and all of a sudden he was gonna be the man?!

Not sure if his heart isn't in it or he can't drive these cars but he hasn't been any good for a long long time now. Could have probably had Lawson in the car for half the price and got better results.

in my opinion Danny Ric was good in the RBR because that car suited his driving style, the moment he moved teams it was shown that he struggles to adjust his style to the way a new car handles.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Tyres are way too hard here.

Edit: This Haas strategy just showing how **** this track is.

 

[Stumble Bum]

Some of these cars need a new livery. The blue cars all look the same.

He was also max's hardest team mate

Kmag is giving meTruli train and Petrov blocking Alonso for an entire race vibes.

 

[Flibster]

Albon pulling a quick surprise on Tsunoda there. Nice.

 

[Stu999]

4 seconds between 12th and 18th (last) due to KMag shenanigans. Done think I’ve seen that before.

Edit - he’s done a great job for Hulk.

I remember reading about a conversation between him and Sainz after he went to McLaren. Sainz was like, how’s that McLaren? It’s weird isn’t it?! And ricciardo was like, thanks mate, you could’ve told me before I came here! He’s definitely a driver that needs a car with a particular style to see his best.

Piasto can't even get passed a 39 year old lol
