Ah, OK. I did wonder. ESNP have been dropping Lando quotes. Must just be journalists!

Is this real omg

Does anyone know the schedule or what’s happening with the Abu Dhabi tests? I’m just trying to work out how many there are. I know there’s the young driver test but is there a Pirelli test too? Excited to see Pato O’Ward for McLaren but didn’t know which one he’d be in? Google isn’t helping me either

I'm glad the race starts at 8pm UK time tomorrow. Getting up at 5am on Monday if the race didn't start until 10pm would've been bad for me.

Alonso out now

Not out recovered

 

[Raquencha]

I was just reading about that. It’s like they throw these things in at the end of the championship just to give it more drama.

Sprint race curse for Lewis?! Interested to see the grid for tomorrow now!

 

[StephenTJackson]

Oh okay sorry. Sky think Lewis might need another engine too as Bottas just recently had an engine didn't he?

No worries, wasn't really very obvious what I was getting at.

Yeah, wouldn't surprise me. Something really not right with this Mercedes PU.

Race starts 5am here tomorrow (Monday). It better not be close! I have to leave for work as it finishes, first day back after 11weeks of lockdown.

Omg his reaction at the end! You can tell he felt bad about it. Oops!

Feels really weird to be sat in on a Satursay night watching qualifying!

 

[namenotavailable]

Where can I watch the press conference live?

 

[Red hair dont care]

So do Mercedes get fined too? Is this their fault the rear wing measurements were wrong? But SSN just said it has been tested before and passed.

Saudi Arabia Grand Prix causes a stir with dress code

The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix was already under fire because of the human rights in the country, but Formula 1 thought that racing in this country was possible. Now the organisation has come up, reported by Marca with clothing regulations to meet the standard in the country.

Thoughts on this?

I kinda wish all the drivers turn up in drag, since apparently the women can't wear makeup

Ok might be dumb here, are they legally allowed to request this? Does any other country do this?

 

[Red hair dont care]

Yes please

Yep, take me now

 

[Behtannkneeky]

It's like Baku. A very fast street circuit, with a high risk of carnage.

Yeah I think so too but I think there’s better access for the Marshalls at Baku? Idk?

 

[moshi_]

I love the F1 theme song. lol

 

[Red hair dont care]

Now what happened there, did Max slow down again but not told to? I am so confused. But few more laps and the podium will be interesting

 

[flinzs]

Ahhhhhhhhhh so nervous and excited at the same timmmmme
