Danny Ric going to be #AllElite after he retires from F1 with that sleeper.

What's the rule on that? And if he can, would he be several laps down?

Looks like they’re allowing him to start from the pit lane!

Everyone arguing over whether the race has technically started or not lmao. If Perez comes back in he's my goat of the week

Cause it's a rolling start, Kimi and Checo are starting at the back. I might actually get paid out big after this is all said and done lol.

Russell with a podium if this race gets called. Mr. Saturday with a brilliant drive in quali!

[Salodin]

Russell gonna get his first podium in f1, in a Williams car. Amazing, kid is a star. Move over Bottas, I hope Alfa treats you well.

Mazespin with fastest lap cause fuck you that's why hahaha

Makes me feel extra sad for Norris. Could've had an easy podium today if FIA had redflagged before he crash like they should've.

[Krandor]

Mazepin getting fastest lap is by far the best part of this

[synistar]

If he were in the top 10, he would have received 0.5 points

[Nitsuki]

Russell put a fucking banger of a quali lap so, he definitely deserved the podium. What a disaster of a race, but on to Zandvoort!

Crofty just let it slip that Russell is in merc next year. “Many podiums in the future”

[Krandor]

This is going to make for some fantastic obscure trivia questions in the future.

Shortest f1 race ever, only race to start with 19 drivers but finish with 20, what is the worst thing Lewis Hamilton has ever seen

[Salodin]

A whole lotta teams wondering if they shoulda taken their grid penalty on any new parts this race. Mercedes got a freebie with bottas in a way, and McLaren having to use a new gear box at least means the next race should have everyone ready to blow their load. Russell got his podium for the season, max and lewis are competitive in points again, and McLaren are that much further in the best of the rest.

RBRs season turned around just like that in the shortest race ever lol

So did they have to do a processional lap at some point? I ended up just going back to sleep a little after the red flag. What a stupid weekend and a damn shame.

[Krandor]

They did do a second lap so that the race would count after like 3 hours.

[Salodin]

Hamilton spilled the beans and pretty much said they had to do that in order for the event to count as happened, and therefore they don't have to give refunds for the lack of a race, on top of other considerations. Seems shady

Glad Hamilton called them out about it both in the post race interview and on social media.

Kimi retiring at the end of the season.

[Salodin]

Kimiiiiii

Guess Bottas is going to Alfa, and that other Mercedes F2 kid is going to williams

My predictions:

Alfa: Schumi + Bottas
Williams: Albon + Latifi (rbr said they want to throw albon to williams)
Haas: Mazespin + ?

Please get rid of Gio, i always forget about him

[Krandor]

I'm pretty sure Mick is staying with Haas at last check
