TIL, Gasly loves Pandas. Thank, random F1TV driver infographics.
And his favourite food is Italian!
Was that Alonso’s fault? That seemed like Ocon’s fault since there was snap of oversteer just before.
Definitely not. Esteban lost it and widened his “trajectory” into Fernando’s front left.
Yeah, absolutely. I suppose you could argue that Fernando could’ve been even further to the right, but no, Esteban has to take the fall for that one, me thinks.
If Ocon thinks the loss of control was because of the line he had to take because of Alonso’s position on the track, then, maybe? Seems like a bit of a stretch but Alonso could have been a little wider if he was on a slow lap but I mean nothing seems especially egregious to me
Ocon seems to have just gone straight into Alonso
That post race interview by Lando was my favorite of all time hands down.
Hehe, yeah. The lap really did look quite scruffy at points, with a cleaner lap he would’ve really beaten it out of the park, so to speak.
Go Danny!
DR P4 in SQ2! Both ATs, really, since Yuki is P10 currently. Impressive!
It really is!
Prost still the undefeated champion of Interlagos, with 6 wins. Surprised to see Lewis “only” has 3.
Nice one Lando, and Danny!
Edit: And Yuki!
Go Lando!
“Max, that was not expected”. Now’s not the time for you to be cheeky, Checo.
Sprint qualifying at its best. Congratulations Lando!
What a mess in the pitlane exit… Max having to fight his way out on track.
They should have made the session 4 minutes. The first 4 were pointless now. Nobody wanted to go before the last possible window…
Perez just seemed to block Verstappen’s lap, only to pit. Did he mess up during that run?
I’m not sure what happened there. Based on the “that was not expected” comment on the radio it sounded like he went rogue for a bit.
Excited to see what McLaren can do today, and if the Astons really have a bit more pace than they’ve generally had for the second part of the season.
Absolutely, yesterday was looking like anyone’s and then the rain came!
That dent in the headrest is another nice example of how cool all those protection mechanisms are.
😂😂😂sky is playing the radio messages and there is no sound whatsoever, complete silence. Wonderful broadcast, hope it gets flex for race day
EDIT: Crowd and pit lane sounds! “Technical difficulties” graphic is gone! Thank god. I did not know how much I missed it
Is this the first time Perez has been ahead of Max in a session, this year? Certainly feels like it.
