Poor Sargeant. He gets a lot of shit, but that’s gotta suck being sick out there, as hot and humid as it is. Yeah, nothing wrong with retiring if he really can’t handle it anymore.
According to Dutch commentators he doesn’t like to drink during racing. Could very well be the cause?
(I don’t know if he was sick from the start)
F1TV commentators mentioned that he actually was sick over the whole weekend, but the team kept it quiet.
I was really worried he was going to crash the way he sounded. Absolutely right decision to retire and the team sounded really supportive.
What a shitty situation to be in really…
Hamilton: I got taken out by my teammate.
Russell: I got taken out by my teammate.
Inserts spiderman meme
Solid stuff by Norris. From 10th to 3rd is quite the feat.
What a shitshow of a circuit. Too bad petrodollars speak higher than anything else
I know. And we have this for 9 more years. Yay.
I agree, but apparently it’s fun to drive
1.8s pitstop by McLaren, damn
Perez lapped by his teammate.
Hopefully, Logan is okay.
I can’t imagine being sick while driving a bloody f1 car. Sounds horrifying honestly
Another 5s for Perez lmao
Maybe he’s trying to challenge Ocon’s penalty record
Hey Lance, please let Fernando through. You’re slow as fuck. Thank youu
Sainz might be out with a fuel leak according to Albert Fabrega
Ferrari should just put him in the pit wall to call strategy for Charles. Maybe the strategists would learn something.
Definitely out, they’re saying now.
Edit: Fuel leak. Probably close to the tank, or the tank itself, since they couldn’t fix it in time.
F1TV says he will not take part.
I am jealous, can I also get a five seconds penalty?
FIA STEWARDS: 5 SECOND TIME PENALTY FOR CAR 780 (THA) - TRACK LIMITS
I like Oprah Winfrey as a steward.
I still can’t wrap my head around McLaren’s turnaround mid season. If you only count the second half of the season, they would be well in the fight for the constructors championship.
I think these forced tyre changes have ruined this races potential
They need to change those curbs for next year. It’s unacceptable to have curbs that cut the tires and force these kinds of restrictions.
Poor Logan, I hope it’s nothing serious
Perez grabbing a 5s penalty after he finally made his way to the front… Fuck’s sake, Checo.
aaaand again… while he’s 11th…
