Amazing driving from Alonso

[-] JJROKCZ@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

What a drive from Alonso!

What happened to these mercs

Ferrari being a shit show is more dependable than my alarm clock.

[-] swolf@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Yeah the Mercs were terrible, I don’t see Lewis taking second in the championship as things stand right now

[-] TheBlue22 1 points 10 months ago

Wouldnt he have to be like at least 2nd both times and perez retiring?

[-] JCPhoenix@kbin.social 24 points 10 months ago

A little teensy disappointed Perez didn't get P3, but seeing Alonso back on the podium again makes up for it and then some.

But man, what a battle between those two. With a photo finish!

[-] A10@kerala.party 19 points 10 months ago

Alosno is a monster. What a race..... Just schooled Checko

[-] FrostyTrichs@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It was fair from both and a great joy to watch.

If by some miracle Vegas turns out to be a low deg surface with reasonable grip things are going to get spicy up front between Max and Lando.

Sign me the fuck up.

[-] Rob@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

If it’s low deg, Piastri can go toe to toe with Norris. It’s tire management where Norris makes the difference compared to his teammate. Not sure if that would be a positive or negative for McLaren when fighting for a win…

I need a finish photo 👀

[-] frank@sopuli.xyz 10 points 10 months ago

Fernando Alonso, DAMN man

[-] Sentau@feddit.de 9 points 10 months ago

It seemed that merc ran the car a little higher to avoid plank wear. That would explain why they struggled even though they bolted a high downforce setup. Anyway it puts to rest the theory that they did not gain anything from running a illegally low setup in Austin.

[-] soEZ@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Not really sure about that. Merc has been really inconsistent in performance, especially on sprint weekend... But this was definitely an abysmal weekend... We shall see how they perform next to confirm if low ride height did aid them..but would not be surprised...if that's the case as well...

[-] DV8@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

And the next GP is Las Vegas, has anyone done it on a SIM or something? The layout looks very bad, but maybe I'm not seeing it like I should.

[-] qkie@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 10 months ago

Still bummed that Brazil is not finishing out the calendar anymore. What a race, amazing drive from Lando and the Perez/Alonso battle was a treat.

[-] utubas@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

Warmed my heart to see little whinning Russell DNFing.

Also, I guess it is too much to ask Perez to drive the Red Bull like it's the best car in the grid.

[-] hal_5700X@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

If Leclerc didn't have bad luck he will have none at all.

Alonso is still showing the kids how it's done.

[-] kerrypacker@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Are we still calling Ferrari being Ferrari luck?

[-] AcidOctopus@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Happy to see Lando and Alonso on the podium.

Happy to see Yuki picking up points! Really want to see him in a more capable car in the future.
