Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

I'm looking forward to seeing Merc Vs Aston, trouble is Aston only really has 1 car lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I need to see Aston Martin unveil the most illegal, protest-inducing, send-Newey-into-a-coma upgrades and for it to rain so my boy Lance can get that maiden win.

Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wind isn't blowing south at the moment. So the skies are pretty clear in Montreal. Even when New York was super yellow, Montreal was relatively fine as most of the smoke went around Montreal. Plus the rain that we've been getting I'd helping out a lot.

The forecast is rain all week so I don't think it will be a problem.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh so cancelled from flooding it is

I'd love to see Yuki score some points this weekend. Let's go!

I just want Leclerc to have a good race goddamn

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ferrari won the 24h of Le Mans. It is only logical to assume we're due for a big Ferrari fuck up.

Used up all their strategy last weekend. They really should learn how to budget

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Williams 1-2, verstappen dnf, Charles leclerc now leads in points. Mercedes are running the reverse layout playing mario kart.

I'm just looking for excitement. It's very telling that the "Top 5 Battles of Canada" on the F1 YT channel includes three three-way battles, whereas the "Top 5 Battles of Spain" had a "battle" from qualifying.

We expect more surprises on Sunday geometry dash bloodbath

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

At this point I'm just hoping for rain so that Max can at least be challenged by someone

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Forecast looks like rain. Doubt that'll stop Max though

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But Max is ridiculous in the rain. I don't think that would be enough. I'm not sure anything can stop him at this point.

Anyone got a weather forecast?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Atm, rain Friday thru Sunday

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yay, fun rain or so there will be no race at all rain.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It says 1mm for now, so that sounds like fun rain to me!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Max will win unless his car breaks. Still, things behind him have been getting more interesting this year, so let’s hope for more of that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Another McLaren double points finish surely isn't too much to ask for, right?

Right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm still rooting very hard for Mercedes. If Canada works out very well again, I think it will set a very different tone for the rest of the season

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes please. We need hard racing at the front to give the season real intensity. Since Perez cannot do that, revitalised Mercs are the best hope.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I’ll put my money on another Verstappen win. I hope Perez can get his act together.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I’m just hoping for a good midfield battle between AM, Ferrari and Mercedes, since I can’t really see anything except a Max win on Sunday. He is just on another level.

As a Lewis fan, this isn't what I want to see, but it's hard to begrudge Max fans enjoying how well he's driving.
