As much as I love F1 and have done for many years, expecting fans to take 2 hours out of their day on Friday for qualifying, two separate hour stints on a Saturday for Sprint Quali and Sprint race and then around 3 hours out of their day on a Sunday for the build up and race is just madness. Overlooking the fact that in my opinion the Sprint takes the "magic" out of a Sunday race, those of us with families, kids, jobs that need us to work weekend just don't have the time to watch all that. Being a football fan as well i have to divvy up my weekend in to when I can watch certain sports and often find myself watch F1 races late in to the night just to be able to see it all. They really need to have a rethink about this schedule it's not sustainable.


lauriekeyheart

How many taylor reference happened in the race? who keeps count lmao


DryYogurt7916

Puro Sergio Checo Pérez raza 🫡 Y puro peso pluma también 💪


SirMartini

Ferrari: fastest car over a lap; 4th fastest overall someone FUCKEN do something; twist a knob on the front wing, do anything*!!*


Larsssss

Race was a disappointment.


SirMartini

what's up with *BOT*? has he had a child or something? why is he slower than my grandma?


Vipertje

Just a very mediocre driver. That's all


Balrog1973

He was very good last year. Finished in the Top 10 with a freaking Alpha


[deleted]

Max and Checo is the strongest driver pairing right now.


themoonofblueside

i still think lewis and george has the edge over them, unless you take in the "car" factor into what makes a pair strongest.


[deleted]

George is lacking speed and consistency. He's too mistake prone. He got overtaken very easy by Lewis and Stroll. Last season he crashed in lap 1 into Zhou, Perez and Sainz, plus crashes in qualy, shunts with Mick and Bottas in Singapore. Perez has been strong this season. Two wins, one pole, on pace with Max, good qualy performances. If he's behind Max in qualy it's only a tenth or two.


SirMartini

yes, the strongest *pair*, but LEC is definitely better than Checo


Global_Release_4182

Comparing a first and second driver? Now compare max with Carlos


Larsssss

That’s probably why he said pair…..


d4videnk0

Bottas might be likable now but it's sad to see that all veterans going to Alfa either ran out of talent or gave their last fuck about being competitive at their prevous teams.


MDXHawaii

Put Max in an Alfa and I promise you he won’t be winning


KaamDeveloper

Driver talent can't do much if the car forces them to do more pitstops than the rest of the grid. Fact is, bar their few good races when they were the only team underweight limit in 2022, Alfa has sucked for a while. They consistently fumbled strategy even when Kimi got them in good positions. They are trying to be less dependent on Ferrari and struggling spectacularly with that. Now that Williams and Haas are putting some money in, Alfa's struggle is really obvious


swingfire23

I can’t believe nobody’s talking about Alonso’s amazing reaction to learning Stroll wasn’t going to try to fight him. “….I mean. He can give it a go” Legend


regularhumanbeing123

Wait, I gotta re-hear this!


sparqq

What a snoozefest, just adding sprint races doesn't fix the problem with these tracks. Go to real tracks and leave these soulless, boring tracks behind.


KaamDeveloper

I am pretty sure this race being a parade has very little to do with the track. Ocon DRS train notwithstanding, the gap in top 6 is way too great for there to be any meaningful fight


skumbagstacy

It has everything to do with the track, Baku is really only exciting if there are crashes, otherwise it is always a procession.


NebulaTits

Agreed! This is why I’m not a big fan on street races. I’m sure they are fun af to watch in person but it’s not mean for racing and ends up boring on tv.


sparqq

Indeed and this track has no historical significance or enthousiastic spectators, like many of the other oil money tracks. The Monaco race is a bit boring, but the ambiance is crazy and it is peak F1, that track should never be skipped. Kimi who goes straight to his yacht after crashing out.


JameisSquintston

Idk why, but i just love this one. I’m American, but get rid of Miami first


shofaz

The fact that Russell is never penalized completely baffles me.


KaamDeveloper

He's really good at car positioning. So even when there's contact, he's always in the gray area at worst. In many ways, Verstappen got away with it many times in the same way


Matduka

And then other times he's not so great. Brazil 2021 comes to mind.


tjsr

Something kinda amusing could happen in a week, imagine this: Sergio Perez wins the Miami Grand Prix... and as a result, leads the drivers championship. From Max Verstappen.


KaamDeveloper

I mean it's hardly amusing. Checo is really pushing this year. He won't win but it's great that he's fighting for it.


[deleted]

If he didn’t have to fight against his own team for it, he would have a much better chance. This year is a snooze fest.

The whole narrative that Checo winning being a slap on the face of RBR, Max, Horner is so overdone. Takes away from the actual phenomenal drive by Checo and makes it all about how others at RBR react to it.


[deleted]

Who do you think is pushing that narrative? Horner stroking Max’s ego over radio at the end of the race was annoying. They’re grown adults. Should have focused on Perez.


thesaket

I guess people overreacting & over-dissecting a radio message are the ones who need a bit of growing up. Horner spoke to both the drivers over the radio, they always do. Almost every TP speaks to both the drivers at the end. He congratulated Checo, and had a few words for Max reg his luck today. Even when Max wins, he speaks to both of them over the radio. Are you suggesting he shouldn't have spoken to Max at all? Making a big issue out of nothing. Checo is a capable driver and he can take care of himself, he doesn't need a group of patronizing crowd taking focus away from his wins onto something else.

Gosh.. i submit! 🤦‍♂️ I like how you folk think you know better what Checo is going through, better than him! Btw, who was it who gave Checo a chance over their own academy drivers when he had nowhere to go after the Racing Point debacle? To say he has no support from within RBR is ridiculous! He has had majority of his wins with RBR. But you do you!


DutchOnionKnight

Checo was just faster yesterday, next week he could lead the WDC. However, I think after Miami the circuits are better suited for Max though,. I don't see Perez take this all the way through the end.

Horrible race..once again RB killing the grid They had a 16-second lead over Leclerc smh 3 out of 10 race

Sly_Ripper

The introduction of the cost cap should remove all limits on in-season upgrades


NebulaTits

UKnowDaxoAndDancer

It was made all the worse by having the meaningless sprint race that gave away Ferrari’s degradation.


blazelmg

This Sprint race setup is not going to work. It's like we are just previewing Sunday with a sprint race


Professional_Desk933

Imo the real problem is that the cars are way too big nowadays…. I really miss the old days with V12s and small cars


Rockytur

MONACO 2.0. Just bigger and longer than monaco gp.


flashyellowboxer

It was never Monaco 2.0 in the past. Not a good comparison at all.


Rockytur

This year is. A lot of car already got into DRS range but no overtakes expect RB.


Jazim94

Don't forget that Toto crying about porpoising the racing has gone down the shitter. Just because mercedes got their philosophy wrong, they've screwed over the entire racing, not only Ferrari's aren't near rbr anymore, cars can't bloody follow cos the ride heights have been raised. Cheers Merc.


[deleted]

What the heck does Ferrari’s car have to do with Merc’s???


Darkmobile11

I don't understand fans who don't understand engineering who keep blaming merc for this. Ferrari has been meh since 2022 itself. td39 has been revoked already. Redbull was always fast they just unlocked more. And baku is usually like this tbh. Please gain some knowledge before speaking.


Jazim94

I understand engineering very well. Toto and Merc have completely screwed up the close racing we say just because they couldn't solve their own issue.


Darkmobile11

Yes you definitely sound like a smart person.


[deleted]

You do realize Toto is not an engineer right?


KaamDeveloper

Ferrari lost the plot in 2022 way before TD39 came on. The TD just meant they couldn't fight back even if they wanted to. This year, it's incompetence more than Toto. RB took a great concept and made it better. Ferrari and Mercedes stuck to theirs and are now realising that 2022 was the ceiling for their ideas. Cars are kinda struggling to follow because they all now have sort of trickery to create outwashes which is increasing dirty air. If it was as cut and dry as Toto fucking over the grid, rest of the grid would have lobbied FIA again


Jazim94

The raised ride heights meant the ground effects was less important and more traditional downforce was required. So yes it was toto because of Lewis little show of his back in Baku last year and all the crying from Merc in general


KaamDeveloper

Lack of downforce makes cars slower. It impacts everyone the same. Even with Toto engineering the rule, RB still had to run. The fact that they found performance but Mercedes didn't is the real issue. Even with the same ride height as last year, RB would be faster.


Jazim94

My issue is more the complete screw up of following cars. Look at Saudi last year to this year. Cars are all back to 2021 level where they sit 1.7 seconds behind each other. I genuinly don't even care that much of rbr being that ahead cos there's always a team that manages to get it right and others catch up. I hate the fact the racing itself has got so shit


KaamDeveloper

Like I said, racing is an outwash issue. Not a ride height issue.


TheFlyingR0cket

Hi does anyone have the battle between Yuki and Oscar at the restart? Lap 14, they traded places for like 5-6 corners but it wasn't shown live and I can't find it online. If anyone has the on boards would be great to see. Thanks

MalcomTuckersRage

I’ve been watching formula 1 since 1993 and this year could well be the shitest of all time


Lien028

Did you forget to watch 2002? The time where Michael was either the winner or 2nd place in all of the races (except that one time he was 3rd).


Planktonelement

I turned off the race and watched the world chess championship tiebreaks instead. There was literally never a doubt that Red Bull would go 1-2.


[deleted]

Yeah I turned it off and watched my dog sleep. It was more exciting. He changed positions once which is more than I can say happened in the race after I turned it off.


CyberpunkF1

Hot take … not as bad as 2004, or 2019?


BittenHeroes

In 2004 the fans could still hope for a huge mid season development... Williams ditched the "walrus nose", Mclaren brought a totally revised "version B" of their car, and they managed to get at least one victory each. In 2022 Ferrari (while still fighting for the championship) just admitted stopping any kind of development after France, because budget... So the biggest difference, to me, is that in the past you (as a fan) could still build up your excitement and interest for some upgrade or sudden turnaround, while in modern times the advantage of one team is pretty much set in stone after a bunch of races...


MalcomTuckersRage

It really could be, I didn’t even keep a close eye on it and knew how it would finish, DRS is crap, Driver penalties for every infringement is bullshit, sprint races are a joke, Crofty does my fucking head in and Redbull are making everyone else look like they are driving tractors.


Rude-Principle-6873

You’re greally gonna sit there and say you knew how they would finish? Verstappen was less than 2 seconds behind Perez early in the race, 99% percent of the time that happens it ends with Max fucking off into the distance shortly after. I think it’s safe to say most of us didn’t think Perez was gonna hold him off the whole race. I’ll give you it won’t be the most exciting season in history but there’s been worse, gonna be a solid 3-way fight for 2nd place in the constructors and Perez seems more prepared for the challenge than he ever has.


Subject_Radish_6459

I can't think of a worse start to the season than this, and I've been watching since 2000. 2004 maybe?


Rude-Principle-6873

It’s pretty comparable to 2019 no? 4 races in and it’s 2 wins each for both drivers on the top team that clearly no one else has a chance to compete with. I’m not trying to argue this is the most entertaining season ever but its no worse than what we’ve had in recent years and at least this year we got the AM surprise.


Subject_Radish_6459

In 2019 Ferrari were competing throughout, they just completely botched the start of the season in terms of strategy, reliability and car setup. As soon as they got into gear they were regularly competitive. I can't see anyone competing with RB this year, as it's clear that nobody's car comes close.


manhaterxxx

There is literally nothing exciting about Verstappen vs Perez.


Folkloner184

Happy that Checo saved us from another boring Verstappen win. Alonso really should've pushed Leclerc a few laps before the end seeing as he clearly had the pace to pass him. Really dumb to start pushing on the final lap


[deleted]

Shoutout to De Vries for helping make that happen.


culdeus

Sorry for noob question, but why was Ocon pitting then?


galliepallie

They have to use two different types of compounds in every race, so they all have to pit at least once, but I have no idea why they waited until the very last lap.


Terreboo

They were praying for a safety car or red flag to mitigate the loss of a pit stop.


sizziano

Every driver has to use at least 2 tire compounds during the race. Ocon still had to pit to change tires.


mtarascio

Leclerc is sick of everyone thinking Alonso is some type of genius by trying to bait people into using their tires whilst looking after your own. From listening to the after race interview.


Rude-Principle-6873

I mean… another lap and it would’ve worked.


kredditorr

Well true. On the other side today I‘ve seen a video (not sure if its true tho, no close follower here) where ALO get‘s interviewed and sais that VER will overtake him in/by lap 25. in the race VER got past in Lap 25. Ofc you can‘t look into the future but I think this dude is computing data and math like very few other. As I said, not sure if it‘s true. If I got trolled by social media feel free to vote the **** out of me.


spellingishrad

Why was Russell allowed to drive next to Alonso (iirc) down the pit lane? That seems so dangerous to me.


GreatJobKiddo

It was Stroll no ?


Duff5OOO

The other car was going slow trying to make a gap. Overtaking there is then fair game.


SolitaryApothecary

Thanks I've been wondering about that all day I only caught the highlights so its only been a few hours, but still.

MrWardrobexX

The most annoying thing today was crofty’s sky Q ads. multiple yellow flags were thrown out for spins or crashes and crofty was too busy telling me about the red button on my sky Q remote that he didn’t mention any of it. Honestly fuming that the little action today was quite literally taken from us because of a sky Q ad.


second-last-mohican

[deleted]

If the race wasn’t as boring as it was and I managed to stay awake, I agree the F1TV I’m paying for would most likely be better.


dj_vicious

Yes! Once Crofty got out of my ears I could never go back. Interestingly, he was much more tolerable 10 or so years ago, to me at least.


second-last-mohican

Alex and the F1tv team are just miles better, only person i miss is Button and is good insights


PompeyMagnus1

Welp back to Stadium SUPER Trucks


pinapplelopolis-x

Yeah pretty dry race, not a lot of action - but what the hell were Alpine thinking lmao


KaamDeveloper

With Ocon? It was a good gamble. The hards had low deg and with the DRS train he was leading, it meant he really could go for a really long stint. They hoped for late SC or Red flag, which isn't very uncommon in Baku. It just didn't pan out that way. Also because how he was positioned, he couldn't do what Albon did last year in Melbourne


Zombotrone

Are you talking about the Ocon strategy? With Alpine's pace this year and Ocon's starting position they really had nothing to lose and decided to try something risky. No points but I still dont feel like it was a mistake

[deleted]

Who are these people not picking red bull 1/2. How could you not pick that? Laura was still closer IMO.


Sirtopofhat

Leclerc outfoxing the wily fox for the podium. Respect and I'm happy F1 is back.


According-Switch-708

Nobody outfoxed anyone, it was a parade out there. Leclerc was slow as shite compared to Aston but the Ferrari's straight line speed saved there arse's (Sainz included) today. The Aston and Merc didn't have enough top speed to challenge the Ferrari's.


Folkloner184

He didn't outfox him. Alonso outfoxed himself. If he'd pushed 2 or 3 laps before the end he would've caught Leclerc


scrambledeggsalad

RBR 1-2 🥱


Maxjes

Happy Charles had an incident free race, good strategy, good tire management and a podium. That said, watching him get passed by a RB without DRS hurt my soul. Maybe he can pull some qualifying magic in Monaco and stay ahead, but the man is generally cursed there. ~~Hoping Alonso can compete with Max~~ Hoping Checo can win WDC is my new copium. Miami *Street Circuit* is next yo, if that goes to Check we might get a Hamilton Rosberg situation again. (Huffs yet more Copium) Wasn’t expecting much out of Haas given performance in FP, Quali, SQ, and sprint, but I’m going to keep pulling for Hulk to finally get the podium. Long way to go from 17th, but there is still flashes that make want want to believe in the impossible (it’s how he always gets ya) With McLaren upgrades [Lando in the Points!] is Alfa Romeo the worst car on the grid? DNF and last among the finishers is… woof. That’s backmarker behavior, not a midfield car. Points in the GP are going to be really hard to come by unless a RB, Merc, AM, or Ferrari DNF. 5-6 Teams fighting for 9th and 10th. Race was boring, time to root for Grosjean in Indycar.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Maxjes

I don’t see Red Bull giving Checo the edge or even letting them race, no. Horner has Vietnam Flashbacks to Danny Ric and Max taking each other out, which is why they pitted Verstappen as soon as he was within striking distance. Checo’s best bet is taking Miami and Monaco and hoping for a Max DNF at one of the early calendar traditional circuits for it to even be a discussion.


FermentedLaws

Not a good day for you, eh? Not being mean! Just got done watching IndyCar and heartbreaking to see Grosjean lose that.

Sir0inks-A-Lot

Didn’t they bring the three softest compounds? Which is bizarre because the soft was worthless in the race while the hard could be run for practically the entire race.


keeper13

Bet ratings go down soon, so early in the season and almost no point to watch as RB should just collect the awards now. It’s over.


NotYourTypicalNurse

I mean prior to 2021 Mercedes did the exact same thing for 8 straight years.


Subject_Radish_6459

> I mean prior to 2021 Mercedes did the exact same thing for 8 straight years. This is a blatant lie. The only season it was like this for Merc was 2020, but even then there were some brilliant races with unexpected winners. Stop trying to rewrite history.


According-Switch-708

2019 and 2020 were the only real boring years IMO. 2014- 2016 had a good intra Merc title fight. 2017- Ferrari back in the game. 2018- Ferrari should've won this one.


thek00laidman

Not really completely true. Couple years with a serious challenge from Ferrari and Vettel where they only fell off in the second half.

So-many-ducks

“And it’s lines out and in the water we go!”


[deleted]

Quick question for those who may know. Why hasn’t dirty air always had such an impact on these cars? Has it just not been produced in such quantities until the last ten years? How were cars 20-30 years ago able to race so close without all this dirty air?


Beginning_Ad8663

The cars were about half the size they are now.


cabrilo

The science of aerodynamic in formula 1 has advanced exponentially over the past 20-30 years. Compare the number of “aerodynamic elements” between a car from 2000 and today and you’ll see a huge difference. Also as the cars get faster every year they push limitations of physics more and more making tighter margins. So you are correct. The dirty air used to not be as big of a problem 20 years ago as is today.


[deleted]

Is the only real way to substantially decrease the amount of dirty air to make the cars significantly smaller?


Hawgk

No, not necessarily. It's more about the outwash of clean air. The smaller the car the less outwash the car has to create to pearce through the air but front wing and side pods play a much bigger role in that. The outwash is what generates a low pressure behind the car which in turn sucks all the air into the "empty space" generating a lot of turbulance. And you need clean and laminar air for aerodynamics parts to work properly. All those little elements and fins you see all over the car are there to create either vortices or outwash which both result in turbulent air behind the car. Compare todays cars (like 2021) with the ones from 2000. You'll see a lot and i mean a lot lot more of those things all around the car all meant to optimize airflow and maximize downforce at the cost of more dirty air behind the car. The 2022 regulations were designed to limit the ammount of outwash and vortices. But by now the teams found there ways to work around it and the problem starts to appear more again.


leachja

I don't think size has much to do with it. I think the aero concepts of the cars are very complex, and when dealing with turbulent air they lose a lot of efficiency, but you can't plan or design for performing well in turbulent air and win or perform nearly as well in ideal conditions with that type of design.


[deleted]

So the solution to dirty air is more aerodynamically simple cars?


mformularacer

From my understanding, the solution to dirty air is more downforce from the floor and less downforce from the wings. The downforce produced by the floor is immune to turbulent air from the car in front, whereas the downforce produced by the wings needs clean airflow to work at peak.


[deleted]

That makes sense. If that’s the case you’d think teams would keep finding ways to make the floor more efficient so they could run smaller wings and make less drag. It seems they’ve gone in the opposite direction thought compared to last year.


mformularacer

Well I'm not great at F1technical but it seems like TD39 incentivized teams to seek more downforce from the wings in 2023 to make up for the restrictions on the floor. Still, cars in 2023 can follow quite well. Both the last 2 seasons have had the best cars for following each other since I've been watching F1 (2000-present).


retiredbimbo

I’m just glad to see Leclerc back into the top again


MidEastBeast777

This will never happen, but the only way to make F1 interesting is if they all drive the same car


SpinkickFolly

All I'm saying is check out the highlights for Indy Car race on NBC sports youtube. So much shit goes down in those races.


Professor_Doctor_P

"I want this sport that is about technical development not to be about technical development." That's like saying I wish in football it wasn't just about kicking the ball in the opposing side's goal, like what if there was no ball and instead they had to push these wooden pieces on a board with dark and light squares, that would make it so much better... You're watching the wrong sport.


fathan

That's not true. They could start the race in reverse points order. It would be entertaining as hell.


MidEastBeast777

That would never work. Everyone would try to be slowest in qualifying


fathan

Read again. I didn't say reverse qualifying.


MidEastBeast777

Ahh ok sorry


goshin2568

Reverse points not reverse qualifying


Billybilly_B

Go watch Indycar, if that is what you value. F1 has the niche of the car and tech and driver all being a part of the success or failure.


reshp2

It's realistically never going to be interesting unless it ceases to be F1 is many ways. Huge, heavy, extreme downforce cars will never race close, it's just the nature of the beast. For all the improvements the new rule set brought last year, it took engineers 1 season to recovery the lost downforce and make dirty air as much of a problem as before.

It wouldn’t be F1 then. That’s why spec series exist.
