harperdc posted:Yuki isn't a bad driver, but he's been promoted very quickly to F1. I said it last year, if this was the 1990s, Yuki would be the kind of driver made to test cars five days a week around Europe all season, or go to IndyCar for the year to get racing experience. He just needs more experience, and it's difficult to justify that while also taking an F1 seat. But it's more for F1 teams to stop loving promoting 20 year olds into F2 and then F1.

Feels Villeneuve posted:People don't really like having tire barriers next to the track in fast sections because bad things can happen if you clip them. Pablo Bluth posted:I believe they're using these They're showing some close-ups of it and it doesn't really look like that barrier, but just a straight block. It doesn't appear to be two walls with some crumpling stuff between it to absorb the impact. I hope it's some fancy tech though, because it looks murderous. edit: Schumacher is OK physically, news from the Haas team.

Theophany posted:pro tip: when it's a really serious accident, Sky F1 don't fill the time hand wringing over Lewis' poo poo rear end quali lap, they get Martin Brundle on to talk about the many times he nearly died. On viaplay someone is interviewing Mika who immediately brought up Michael Schumacher's condition which was kinda hilariously insensitive

Commentator on the viaplay channel confirmed that the blocks at the impact site are just individual 4 ton concrete block that are bolted to each other (and not the ground). Seems wild, I mean I guess it's good that they can move slightly to dissipate impact, but it's literally a heavy concrete wall. edit: Confirmed that Schumacher has no physical injuries.

This season has four really competitive cars/drivers at the top and a really tight mid-field. Seems to be pretty promising in terms of racing entertainment.

F1's terrible race direction has apparently been shuffled down to F2, poor Hauger and whatever the gently caress happened there. The race director instructed Prema to enter the pit lane under the Safety car, then decided the pit lane was closed and penalized him ten seconds. He went from first to last place.

Considering Russel is the only mercedes engine starting in the first ten places I wonder what the chances are that every single mercedes supplied team has crippling aero issues, and that there's no correlation with the power unit being the common denominator.
