also doesnt look like its planning to rain today *sigh*

riciardo looks pretty fast..he might be able to put it on the podium...if something happens to one of three regular podium dwellers ahead of him...

oh well..time to find out if the mercs will just run away with it

lets watch

They said it was a broken exhaust in the pre race show. Sainz has had shit luck so far this season

“Plan c is what three stops and borrow someone else’s car?”

I pretty much died at that. (No idea who else sees our commentators but that was their reaction)

Also hasn’t worked that well for Gasly either, drops him back quite a bit.

comentary here is waiting for tire blow outs

not sure i want to see that happen on this track

gin-san - shitpost specialist > farscythe - makin da cawfee! 08/30/2020 at 10:29

Lando showing some speed, hopefully he does well to make up for that final lap car failure last year

The US broadcast is absolutely terrible at figuring out which drivers are which. YOU HAVE ONE JOB.

farscythe - makin da cawfee! > smobgirl 08/30/2020 at 10:33

yep...dutch broadcast is likewise terrible...also seems incapable of correctly identifying tire compounds by the colour

its impressive

farscythe - makin da cawfee! > farscythe - makin da cawfee! 08/30/2020 at 10:39

haha...riciardo ninjad the fastest lap there

smobgirl > farscythe - makin da cawfee! 08/30/2020 at 10:46

They went on and on about Norris having Stroll right in his mirrors and having to do some defending...Norris had  just passed Stroll and was disappearing off into the distance

oh well...not expecting next weeks race to have much different results than this one...

but the nurburgring should be fun...with snow (really...having that track that late in the year is risky....lol)

Not the most exciting race ever but not bad, good midfield action today.

Another day in the office for Mercedes. Valtteri was pushing but he’s just not consistently quick enough to put the pressure on Hamilton.

On the other hand, RIC with a fastest lap, maybe things have finally turned around for Renault. Still, I wouldn’t be too excited until they can consistently battle Red Bull, let alone Mercedes.

Ferrari was just lmao this weekend

Lando drove well today, it’s not quite the 5th place (I think) he would’ve gotten last year but he did the best he could under the circumstances.

lol....d’oh

but tbh...i get the impression that for comentators its more important to keep talking than it is to know what they are talking about

yep...it wasnt a bad race...tho...mercs has now won so often they forgot to look excited about it..lol...at least they found some enthusiasm again by the time they got the champagne

tbh between gasly, norris and albon is was pretty entertained...and watching kimi overtake i think it was leclerc was oddly satisfying

Can’t wait for Danny Ric post race interview lol

It’s Sky Sports, so every English speaking country gets the same  horrible commentators. If they could just let Will Buxton and Jenson Button do the announcing it would be great

I wasn’t sure, because I know there are a ton of English-speaking commentators there who aren’t on the broadcast I can see. Are they not able to show these guys a leaderboard while they’re blabbing? They’re constantly saying someone passed someone who’s like five cars away on track.

They have all of the information, they just only seem to quickly glance down at the race feed and spout off nonsense
