FORMULA 1 ROLEX GRANDE PRรMIO DE SรO PAULO 2023
Throw away all the oil money race tracks and have multiple races here
Probably my favorite race of the year, even though it was only a sprint. That brings my hopes up for tomorrow's race a lot.
Alpha Tauri looking good for the real race tomorrow.
Max and Lando went into the sunset
What an absolute stonker of a race! Possibly the best sprint this year. Hopefully the main race is also this entertaining!
Hats off to the direction and F1tv commentary!
Yes Yuki
He somehow managed to keep the same pace as LeClerc and pull away from Sainz. And the AT's tire degradation is clearly better than Ferrari's. He was a few tenths faster than LeClerc in the last couple of laps. Another 3 laps and he would've been ahead.
This sprint race might be the best of any race this season so far. So much going on.
Is this what happens when you take 'managing' down in importance?
they were still managing the wear on those softs, it would've been a different race if they hadn't
Pretty exciting so far. Lots of close racing and overtaking.
Absolutely! Even before DRS there was a ton of action.
OK, that was a sick pass of Perez by Hamilton. Goddamn.
Perez better pick it up.
Now this is pretty exciting
What a race
Am I crazy or is it way too advantageous to start second? Verstappen had the best line...
Some tracks are like that, but I suppose we'll see what happens in the real race tomorrow. Though this practice/sprint race tends to ruin any surprises.
Some tracks are like that, first isnโt always best unless you have the acceleration speed to keep ahead
I'm liking that Checo is proving on track that he can be the best number 2. Vamos Checo!
He was closest to his team mate?
He gained positions, kept it clean and widened the gap with Hamilton. Which is what he needs to do.
Ahh you mean number 2 in championship, not a number 2 driver.
I agree he put in a strong race, but I suspect his goose is cooked at this point. It's surely too late when you've got Ric, Law and Tsu all waiting eagerly in the wings.
If he can consistently finish 2-4 and qualify better, he can help play pit games. That's all that's needed to keep his spot. I don't think Tsunoda or Lawson are safe choices so he'd need to do many mistakes like in Mexico before that could become real imho.
You may well be right. I guess Tsuonda and Lawson would probably fare no better fundamentally and lack Perez's experience, but an on-form Ricciardo is a juicy prospect, surely?
Yeah, but if Perez can prove himself a known, consistent variable, I don't think it would make sense to switch it up. Neither would be a future WC so they need reliability from day 1 in 2024.
I always love those shots from the front where a car appears from another one to make a pass. Like what we just saw with Perez on Russell. Very cinematic.
What a fantastic sprint. Just pure, clean racing. Hope to have more of them in the future.
Hamiltonโs pace is gone
Giga chad Padre
Oof Lando dropped 2 places. Doesn't look like he tried to push hard on that first corner.
Perez down 2 places as well.
Eat that ocon
I love this track
That was already entertaining before DRS was enabled.
