Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the Canadian Grand Prix Weekend thread.

Details about this race can be found here.

Sessions

This thread will cover all the sessions this weekend, so that's all 3 practice sessions, qualifying, and the race.

We will monitor how this goes to see if we need more granularity.

Spoilers

The rules around spoilers are not yet in place, therefore we won't be enforcing anything around spoilers this weekend. This goes beyond the scope of this thread too.

If you do not want spoilers, please do not look in this community this weekend.

The aim is to have a finished set of rules ready by mid next week.

What a clusterfuck that was at the end.

Yeah so much. This was crazy by sainz

[-] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

These conditions really bring out the chasm in ability between Stroll and Alonso.

[-] quintinza@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Between Alonso and almost everybody else. Stroll was nowhere, but Alonso in his 40's is sharper than 75% of the current grid. His reactions when the car snaps on him is unbelievable.

Wow, Williams with the big balls strategy, nicely done

[-] Kidney_Thief1988@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I respect it. They saw a small window to put in some fast laps on softs and they capitalized on it in a big way.

Q1 resultsTop 3: VER ALO HAM

Eiminated: TSU GAS DEV SAR ZHO

[-] MrStrawberry@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

Sainz should get even more then a 3 grid penalty. This was not only impeading, but crazy dangerous.

[-] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

The penalty is given for the infringement, not the outcome. Not that I disagree with you, but that is how the rules are applied.

[-] MrStrawberry@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah sure. I honestly don't expect anything else. But they should really add some additional penalties for this very dangerous maneuvers.

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 years ago

Q2, with more rain coming

[-] Omgarm@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Williams with 2 fastest sectors, just like we ll predicted.

If the rain picks up now and the softs take 2 laps to get to working temperature, those who just came in might lose out heavily.

[-] Rumblestiltskin@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

Does it rain everyontreal GP weekend?

[-] Kidney_Thief1988@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Aw, man, went to commercial right as Gasly was about to tell everybody how he felt about Sainz being in the middle of the track.

[-] LettuceTurnipTheBeet@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

That rejoin from De Vries is kinda spicy. Hope nothing bad happens during the race.

[-] Omgarm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

That wall is going to create chaos if somebody doesn't make the corner.

Oooh I do love a wet qualifying!

[-] Omgarm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It is so great to see lap times improve every lap.

[-] condodog@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Wow we need rain every weekend. This qualifying is nuts

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs

[-] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Tsunoda has been an absolute menace haha!

[-] itsmikeyd@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Perez has bottled it.

[-] unomar@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

I look forward to McLaren raising my hopes, and then dashing them quite expertly.

[-] Rain3h@feddit.uk 1 points 2 years ago
[-] MrNorm@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

He got so unlucky last time. Let's hope the team got some good data from their upgrades kicking in!

[-] PriorProject@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm liking these liquipedia pages, so much context. Plus the session times posted there.

Rawe ceek, here we come!

[-] MrStrawberry@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I know that this post is for the full weekend. Could we still have a separate race discussion? I think this would make it a bit better to keep an overview.

"There's a surprising number of cars out there, considering this is approaching biblical"

[-] imasnyper@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

"Good weather for a duck"

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

Technical issues for Zhou, that was quick

[-] Omgarm@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Wonder what the issue is. Hopefully he can recover tomorrow...

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago
[-] Omgarm@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Must have still fucked with his pace. Starting 20th is better than from the pits at least.

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

🟥 Red flag. Hülkenberg with engine issues

[-] jalda@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

🟩 Green flag. This one has been a bit shorter.

[-] abclop99@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago
