Really pumped for the new cars! If for nothing else then Design. But man even look at this last years cars, beautiful

Lots of memes on IG about Hamilton stepping away, highly doubt it but would be balsy although just playing into his whiner reputation

[bcrdukes]

I don't have much to add other than tickets for the Canadian GP is nearly sold out and hotels are almost fully booked. Most of the F1 teams are staying at the Fairmont. :)

[TheStig]

Will definitely be interesting to see how things with Hamilton play out. I hope he stays, not just for the future battles with Max, but also to see him up against George as a teammate.

AlphaTauri's first start up on the Honda motor

Haas released their livery for 2022, it’s just a rendering though but I guess that’s what that the car will look like?

Red Bull reveals their RB18

[Hondaracer]

So all their reveals are gonna be these prototype concepts so they can hide the final design until the first race? :/

[TOS'd]

Just things I noticed from the Haas vs RB:

Air intake: Haas = rounded triangle, RB = rounded trapizoid
Front wing: Haas = square point, RB = rounded point
Front wing side fins: Haas = straight up, RB = pointed inwards
Side mirrors: Haas = vert./horz. supports curved, RB = vert./horz. supports straight
Front left/right intake: shape different between the two

theres probably many more minor things

[Hondaracer]

When you see them side by side with the 2021 car the new one looks pretty sweet

[inv4zn]

Surprised nobody posted yet, AM revealed their car - and it's the actual car. Not "new" livery plastered on the FIA shell.

Are they allowed to do that? I thought they had to wait until testing.

I think teams can do their own individual testing as they see fit on their own tracks (wind tunnels are limited)...the 'official' preseason testing is where they all come together to test on one track.

[supafamous]

Are they allowed to do that? I thought they had to wait until testing.

They used a filming day. You're allowed 2 days of 100km of "filming".

I hate the fact that Mercedes is so damn good because it makes for boring racing, but I seriously love that they seem to be only team REALLY pushing the boundaries and coming up with completely out of left field designs.

From the Split-turbo of their engine, to DAS, to the trick suspension, and now to this. And they pretty much manage to do it all within the rules, unlike *cough* ferrari illegal fuel flow *cough*

So far so good.

[sonick]

I think I am already on ep 6. Some thoughts:


- The tension between Ricciardo and Norris seems very manufactured. Based on all other interactions, seems like they get along fine, Netflix just blew up some of the comments from Norris and made it a story line.
- Tsunoda is awesome. I wish they got more into his time in Faenza. Generally hope he's able to turn it around.
- Gunter continues to be a hilarious character.

I completely agree with your post.

I finished the whole season, there wasn't much Netflix could do to spin the narrative as the 2021 by it self was already thrilling and dramatic.

Christian Horner getting tons of screen time, typical Netflix making him look like the biggest asshole team principle :lawl:

EDIT: I felt that Netflix rushed on the editting. The AlphaTauri segment had a screw up on the subtitle. It said it was Tost talking to Yuki but in fact it was Helmut

The engine sound track was really out of sync on a lot of the scenes.

I think they purposely made Riccardo look like the bad guy here, make it look like he's a bad teammate. Showing how Carlos Sainz is so friendly when he goes to his new team and getting along with all teammates. Then Riccardo, they are implying that he is a bad teammate.

I am thinking it may have something to do with luring Max back into doing interviews next season. But its crazy how they can craft the narrative like that (proving Max correct). I honestly thought that Riccardo and Norris had an amazing relationship throughout the season.

this was the biggest shock to me.

Didn’t realize his dad was also the chief sponsor until thay episode

[sonick]

I haven't followed as closely to F1 before the last few years, but I am generally surprised at the hate that Hamilton gets, is it simply because he's been so good?

Everything I've seen from him, D2S or otherwise, he has not shown any arrogance , he's always first to congratulate his team for successes and take failures on himself, speaks with humility and let's his driving speak for itself.

Perhaps there was prior history where he wasn't quite as polished?

I think it's just that some people are tired of seeing him and Mercedes always winning. I'm still a big fan of his and hope that this season is the one where he gets his 8th championship.

[SkunkWorks]

I thought Hamilton and Mercedes were portrayed very favorably in DTS...

Especially the Silverstone crash, they put in Lewis' radio asking if Max was ok immediately after the crash but in reality he didn't ask until he got back to the pits for red flag.

But that's DTS as max called it. Lots of TV induced drama, highly entertaining regardless.

No they didn't. They featured that along with toto inspecting the damage afterwards.

[nabs]

After finishing the DTS season, the season wasn't that great tbh.

I think they wasted a lot of footage on making Mazepin look bad, which I don't have any issues with, but they spent too much time on it, they could have got the point across a lot quicker.

No interviews with Max really made a huge difference, the last race stuff fell flat for me.

I think this season I was much too involved in all the news and controversy in real time, that the Netflix rendition of events wasn't interesting to me. They glossed over sooo many things, they could have spent more time talking about the rear wing controversy, because it followed them for 3 races, as well as Max touching the rear wing/fine etc.

I think I was just de sensitised to the information as I already knew what happened more than the show could provide.

The one thing that I thought was something I didnt catch was Ricciardo and Norris's relationship, but then that was quickly squashed with their reaction video.

So.. not a good season for the show for me


However, I always LOVE watching to see the cars and races in 4K! It always looks so gorgeous. I really hope netflix gets those live streaming rights for this reason.

People always forget the shit that Hamilton did to gain positions, he used to be fairly scrappy, people forget about this.

Max is much more scrappier, but its youthfulness, its exciting, and him and Perez working together is magic.

Maybe McLaren can google why they're so slow

They need more ram :lawl:

[pastarocket]

Although it’s early in the season now, Ferrari is looking great with their cars and drivers.

Some optimism from Hamilton too. He finished third and shares the podium with the Ferrari drivers despite the pole position 5 and issues with the Mercedes car.

@LewisHamilton

Great start to the season. We gave it our all and ended up with the best result we could have. Well done to the Ferraris, great to see them share the podium. Big week of work ahead but I know we got this

Very entertaining race! Ferrari's looking good!

[nabs]

It was an awesome race! Im a RBR fan, and was extremely sad, however I can't help but be excited for this season. So many changes.

[68style]

What F1 has done to bring themselves into the public eye the last couple years is remarkable... I have seen coworkers and women who don't even know how to change a tire or what model car they drive all talking about F1 now like they've been watching since Mansell days or something lol

[SkunkWorks]

Whoever pitched the idea to have Netflix follow along needs to be given all the money.

[Great68]

I'm not a fan of the show myself, I couldn't make it through and stopped watching about 1/2 way through Season 3.

That being said, no one can deny its effect on getting some new interest into the sport has been huge. Even if they're just casual fans.

[mikemhg]

Do we think it was just the show?

I feel like the online presence and marketing of F1 outside of the show on Netflix has been a big change as well.

F1's marketing team as a whole have done a phenomenal job.

[MarkyMark]

If it wasn't for the Netflix show I don't think I'd even know anything about F1 right now. Even my wife watched the last 20 laps of the last race because she saw the show and wanted to see who won which is saying something lol.

The show really does a good job of making the cars actually look fast... When watching it live on TV it really looks a lot slower than it actually is.

[hud 91gt]

It’s the show. I’ve had people ask me about F1 a lot in recent years, and 100% has to do with the show. I don’t watch it at all, but it’s gained a ton of interest from a lot of people that have had zero interest in Motorsport previously.

[Hondaracer]

I think a lot of people are into the personalities even more so than the racing itself. Especially when Toto and Horner are plastered all over the regular broadcast

While I think that the show was probably the single biggest thing recently, the marketing team definitely made other changes that good impacts.

Embracing social media, youtube etc (Things that old Bernie was super against when he ran the show). Focusing away from the super hyper elite to make it a bit more relatable to youth and regular people. (I think they realized the sport couldn't sustain itself catering primarily to old rich people)

Youtube is a big one. Them doing highlights of the FP, Quali, and the race makes a hell of a difference as I typically don't have time to watch the whole thing anyways.

The zoomers love memes, and there is good meme culture in F1.

For me, I started watching F1 in the early 2000's which is how I became a fan. I was captivated by Schumacher.

^^^^^^^

oh 100%, and Ferrari knows that too.

Every single test between the 918, P1 and LaFerrari, the Ferrari was never the best in any categories even though it should have the "highest specs."

But you know what, you ask any enthuastist or general population of which one to take home... and 99% of the audience is going to take the LaFerrari home.

We will take it home because it is NA V12 that revs passes 9000, general population will take it home becaue it is a Ferrari.

[68style]

I was into F1 after playing Nigel Mansell racing on SNES constantly… then got out of it… got back in 04 or 05? When Alonso won the championship… I happened (just by coincidence, unplanned) to be in Paris in the Renault factory store on Champs D’Elysses the day he clinched the championship it was insanity hahaha

I used to be more into CART in the earlier Paul Tracy days and Greg Moore etc… WRC as well, went to a big event for that in Wales in 2007 when Colin McRae was still alive!

How does that boost system work? It seems to be pretty random, where sometimes the person behind has it, but sometimes they don't. And sometimes the person who just got passed has it, but sometimes they don't. I couldn't make any sense of it, and it seemed like whoever happened to have the boost last, won the race

I think what you're asking for is what is DRS known as drag reduction system. I think this video will help you explain it. Tons of other videos on YouTube also.

EDIT: Then there's also the battery hybrid system where drivers can charge the battery and deploy it for defense and attack mode. But I believe your question was leaning towards more on the DRS system.

You have to be within 1 sec behind the person in front when you cross a DRS detection line, then you're given the use of the DRS system (kind of like driving over a power up in mario kart)

that's why ya saw Max and Charles braking during the race trying to let the other pass em at the detection zone, bcuz with the new regs the cars are able to drive really close to one another, so they're able to play more of a game of tag with the DRS line

Also why in the last race Charles kept letting Max pass before the straights and Max kept falling for it, same with this race it took Max a min before catching on

It's also why Hamilton refused to pass Max last season so Max slowed even more and Ham hit Max instead of passing

[TypeRNammer]

It's also why Hamilton refused to pass Max last season so Max slowed even more and Ham hit Max instead of passing

At that moment, Max was told by his engineer to hand the position back, but do it strategically.

https://youtu.be/QS4Z38HhsMc

[SkinnyPupp]

So t hey wanted to create more passing, but all they did was create a new strategy where they refuse passing LUL

[Hondaracer]

I dunno..the last two races there’s been a tonne of passing

[Vancouver240sx]

Interestingly the DRS line hasn't played AS BIG of a role in other years (yes, we've seen incidents of this in the past, but not like we have this year). I think it highlights the new F1 design which is allowing drivers to follow more closely, which was the original problem DRS was brought in to fix.

Now if we could get 1 refuel stop during the race, shit would get real!!!

I am loving this season so far! Lewis with the HUGE upset in Quali, very unexpected. Ferrarri in consistent winning pace so far.

[Eff-1]

This track is a bit of an anomaly in that there is a large DRS effect, along with the placement of the DRS detection line right before the main straight which then feeds into another passing zone.

Seeing drivers purposely braking to avoid being ahead at the detection line is very unusual and the only other time I can remember that coming into play was last year at this same track. So it's all very situation-dependent.

That being said, this year with the new regulations, we are all curious to see how the DRS zone at each track will come into play given the new aerodynamics.

[Great68]

A lot of people seem to be upset about the fact that drivers slow down to play the "DRS detection" game.

I say fuck that. I think it's great, I love the gamesmanship.

That being said, I think the DRS as it was set up at this track was maybe just a touch too powerful.

But I also think that despite the new regs, DRS does seem like it's still going to be necessary for a while.

[Hondaracer]

Without DRS I’m not sure the red bull could overtake the Ferrari.

Certainly the Mercedes do not have the straight line speed for overtaking without it

Exactly... I love it... it adds another layer to the drivers/team prowess, and becomes part of their strat. Same as the first race, pruposely letting Verstappen overtake on turn one, just to get him coming out of turn 4...

On top of being the fastest on track with a competitive car, you also have to be the smartest on track.

Though nth can help with bad luck, feel bad for Perez ...

[Hondaracer]

Also if races become even more competitive down the road where there’s 3-4 cars in contention toward the end of the race, you’re going to have to play that DRS game even more carefully as you’ll just be backing up a pack of cars waiting to overtake within those last few zones

You see, there’s a rule that states no one can enter the track in the five-minute period after the end of a session “with the exception of specifically identified personnel”.

Seb was deemed not to be such a person, and has now been given a €5,000 fine for *checks notes* riding slowly around an empty track on a motorcycle. Because F1.

5000 Euros fine.

Honestly I want to like Stroll given he’s Canadian etc. but it just seems like he’s too dumb to ever realize his full driving potential. Obviously to reach F1 you have to have some form of intelligence even with a owner father. However, every time I see him in an interview he kind of gives off that Buffoon vibe.

A big thing to watch was when him and Seb were given all those different mclarens to drive and seb figured them out relatively quickly whereas Lance just struggled to understand the car

I don't think any are particularly bad, my thoughts were simply on Steiner when he entered the championship and how he presented himself (or was presented in media). However, like Producer said Capito doesn't seem to be in there with much grit and enthusiasm and isn't doing much for Williams. It may be too early to tell if he can turn them around, but their fall from competitiveness is hard and sad to watch. They're abysmal.

Lol aye saw that right after guess that answers that, mick will be 25 by the time Sainzs contract ends, guess he has til then to prove himself

Schumacher still has a lot of development to do and needs some proven and consistent results. IF that happens I see him going up to a mid-level team like McLaren or Toro Rosso before he gets on with one of the top three. If Leclerc and Sainz continue to put Ferrari on the podium through their 2024 contracts I can't see Ferrari moving on from one driver for unproven nepotism.

"a live Nickelback concert" sounds like a good thing that it was cancelled :lol

Tuned in late at lap 7... Sainz out, Alonso out... WutFace

Nice pass by LeClerc on 8 though

Loving Nicos commentary rubbing the sky team in the wrong way :lol

Wasn't as exciting as I expected for a wet/damp race, but it wasnt bad!

Did Ric just psych himself out after going off?

Bottas so close! Nice drive by Rus tho

[TypeRNammer]

Happy to see redbull take a 1-2 win, along with Lando taking the last spot for podium.

Gutted for Carlos for getting beached again

I missed this. What did he say?

I can't stand Nico. The arrogance is off the charts.

[The Producer]

if we're talking about the same thing - then he politely reminded the audience that George and Lewis have the same car.

TBH I found it to be kind of a boring race... Not wet enough to make it crazy, not dry enough to make it fast or allow DRS. Tsunoda held up most of the field and they just couldn't get by him. LeClerc fucking up was the most exciting thing that happened pretty much.

Although Rosberg on commentary was fucking hilarious. I love it when people are blatant about their feelings, and he doesn't even try to be subtle.

[StylinRed]

Rosberg isn't wrong though, it's just such a shock to hear for people because the sky team is always so far up Lewis's ass, so when you hear someone speak facts it sounds like a diss

[roastpuff]

Sky Team is always heavily Brit-biased, and even more so for Ham. So it's nice when Rosberg comes in and shits all over their takes lolol.

[Great68]

Yeah I found this race kind of boring as well. Imola truly does suck for racing.

It also looks like DRS is going need to stay into the forseeable future, even with these new cars.

[TypeRNammer]

Tsunoda held up most of the field and they just couldn't get by him.

These are the going rates for Miami GP tickets. GA 3-day pass around $800 USD, grandstand staring at $1100 USD. Paddock club at $6k USD.

If this is Miami, I don't want to think what Vegas will cost.

[68style]

Wow… not just a rich man’s club to race…. Even just to watch

I’d rather spend less to go to England for Goodwood lol

[donk.]

Vancouver formula E cancelled till 2023

Welcome to last page sir hahaha

I looked the other week to see if there were any tickets remaining at miami, 1 ticket on the start/finish grandstand for the weekend was $2500usd, this was off the official miamigp website

Just insane, iirc that's double or even triple what it cost when I went to Singapore n Australia

sounds like it's getting more real

VAG hoping that significant rule changes in 2026 will allow them to enter at a time that all teams will be making the switch to fully synthetic e-fuel, significantly closing the competitive gap for a new engine.

Love this - bring on the e-fuel development boom.
