Gasly got screwed.
Yeah so much. This was crazy by sainz

Wow we need rain every weekend. This qualifying is nuts
Let's revive Bernie's sprinkler idea.
Wow, Williams with the big balls strategy, nicely done
I respect it. They saw a small window to put in some fast laps on softs and they capitalized on it in a big way.
Just the perfect timing. Got the tyres into the temperature window before the rain got stronger. Not sure if those who put on the softs late will be caught out by the rain now.
Go on Albon!
Williams with 2 fastest sectors, just like we ll predicted.
Williams dominance could bore fans
These conditions really bring out the chasm in ability between Stroll and Alonso.
Perez has bottled it.
Wow, can't believe just a few races ago we were talking about whether this would be Perez year. And he is not even close to Verstappen.
Q2 results
Fastest: ALB VER NOR
Eliminated: LEC PER STR MAG BOT
exactly as expected
Stroll just isn't cutting it on Aston Martin anymore. Maybe his dad can give him a cushy office job so we can get a competent driver.
🏁 Checkered flag as the rain increases
Top 3
HAM 1:13.718
RUS +0.027
SAI +0.126
What’s great weekend. Canadian GP, US Open, and the Ashes. F in the chat for my wife and kids’ TV time please.
::: spoiler LEC PER and STR out in Q2? This is interesting :::
If the rain picks up now and the softs take 2 laps to get to working temperature, those who just came in might lose out heavily.
Q1 results
Top 3: VER ALO HAM
Eiminated: TSU GAS DEV SAR ZHO
Sainz is getting a penalty for that surely
Nice amount of impeding today.
Wow, Perez missings another Q3. Changing conditions give you some excuses, but overall that is not a good look against a team mate that is dominating the championship.
Seems like lemmy.ml is having some trouble pushing out comments to other instances from this post 😬 Many comments here are missing on other instances
Might make sense to host these threads on a less overloaded instance?
Aw, man, went to commercial right as Gasly was about to tell everybody how he felt about Sainz being in the middle of the track.
Starting to rain, and most drivers on softs
how do y'all feel about race weekends with these later than usual session start times?
I hate them, give me my 8-9am sessions!
How about you Euros/Asians? Are these times better or worse?
Hulk P2? Please let it happen!
I know that this post is for the full weekend. Could we still have a separate race discussion? I think this would make it a bit better to kepp an overview.
There are a couple of reason why I'm going to say no to this now.
- I don't want to change how we're operating a race weekend during the race weekend.
- I'd like to see the experiment of one post per race weekend through.
If we get enough feedback asking for more granular threads then when will absolutely consider how we change things for future races.
Tomorrow there will be a post-race discussion. Perhaps in there you can make this point again?
Sainz vs Perez was fun.
What is this race direction? We're missing albon and Norris soft lap. Who is in charge this weekend? Seems worse than other weekends.
Sainz should get even more then a 3 grid penalty. This was not only impeading, but crazy dangerous.
The penalty is given for the infringement, not the outcome. Not that I disagree with you, but that is how the rules are applied.
Leclerc eliminated because Ferrari decided not to switch to softs when he wanted to. Stop inventing!
Does it rain everyontreal GP weekend?
Q2, with more rain coming
Nando win please!
So one-lap-shootout coming up.
wait, just tuned in, what the fuck happend?
