Aston’s upgrades are actually insane, going from last positions to the midfield with just non-engine upgrades? Hell yeah thats great, and if Honda delivers after the summer break, I can see them fighting for the points consistently. Alonso must be really happy to finally have a competitive car.

Now that the AM backmarker is moving on, the spotlight is now on William’s poor performance, and oh boy are they lacking on that department

Overall nice race, not much else to say. TV direction seems better than last week.

Hulkenberg points finally! Also pretty close to the first Audi double points. Reliability is getting there for them

Such a shame for Piastri, he was driving quite nicely, but ofc his weekly dose of 2026 luck hadn’t hit yet. Is Sainz blind or what, how could you not see both the blue flags and the papaya coming towards you at speed.

I am starting to believe RedBull is experimenting with some king of rage-based power unit, the more their drivers complain the better position they get.

Anyways, anyone got any bets on what Hamilton’s 5 second penalty will be next race?

This is actually a preview of the next regulation change the FIA has been secretly tinkering with, since tire management has been mostly solved, to introduce some more chaos into the races, teams will have to swap out between a hard and a soft chassis every few weekends. For some reason Red Bull decided to put verstappen on the soft chassis while everyone else went on the hard one, hence the degradation.

Someone put their coffee mug on the “blow up second driver’s engine” button on toto’s desk at the end of qualy huh

Yup, decision has came out, 3 place grid penalty

Antonelli gonna hear from his father after almost losing out on Q3 due to track limits lmao

I misread VES as VER and was confused as to why they were showing verstappen on a mercedes, thought tv direction screwed up once again lol

Audi points back to back let’s go! Shame Hulk once again couldn’t get the car into the top 10.

I agree tv direction is again crap. I get highlighting the ANT vs LEC fight at the front, but come on we got like 10 laps straight of that, there were some amazing moments barely shown, that three wide overtake in the midfield would’ve been nice in a screen that isn’t for ants.

I agree Luanti isn’t the best choice for that rename, but at least they switched away from minetest. IMO the original name didn’t help it sound as a mature and active developed project.

They keep them grouped together though. If you look closely, they’re in the same bubble while firefox is in another one. Probably shows both for the convenience of most devs.

(also Microsoft being Microsoft might shoehorn in some feature no other normal browser would just because)

Thanks for the explanation! I didn’t use to check Lemmy frequently up until recently, so the cornposting has always been this strange thing i saw sometimes, but never understood it. Now it makes sense

Is holding such a cob the path to enlightenment? If so, then I shall find one and hold it dearly

Fair, if we had one last racing lap it would have been a great shakeup on the front, Russell could’ve taken the chance for P1 and probably some fight for podium. But yeah, race got FIAd

Ferrari missing out a 1-2 because of strategy, good result but still managed to fit in a small screw-up in the end

Edit: Audi points yay! :-D

shame Hulkenberg once again with reliability issues, bro can’t catch a break (or some points either)

for spicing up the game whenever it gets boring

Barcelona is over, back to your regularly scheduled Ferrari shenanigans

Alright race, not much happening aside from HAM/VER fighting and the tight podium race. Shame Ferrari couldn’t get a few good positions, their pace and strategy wasn’t there today; good result for redbull tho, sadly a small strategy mistake didn’t help them keep the lead.

What on earth were the SkySports commentators doing with the weather forecast. Brother, there’s like 10 laps left, a small rain chance near the track is not gonna affect anything today.

Edit: Also, the new camera shots with that drone are absolutely amazing, could use some stabilization on the video, but for sure there’s only so much you can do at that high speed.

This week feeling like that fr. Tuesday work isn’t over yet and I’m already in need of a weekend, and the rest of the week ain’t looking easy sailing either.

Oh well, just gotta lock in brother

Yeah, sorry for the source. Saw it multiple times but couldn’t find an official or better source, seems like at the time it was just mentioned by Nico during an interview.

I… might have cursed Kimi’s car. Was watching the race with my mom and explaining to her that this guy leading the championship hasn’t lost any race due to major car failure while pretty much everyone else has. Not even a minute later his car dies lmao
