@antipodean ok I understand why he was so angry when he came in...
He was also going to fast, so right to be angry but being a fluffybunny too
I think he only got the red flag notification half a second before? Can't really go jamming on the brakes eh

Ah you could be right, I'm watching rugby at same time. Totally fair enough if that's the case. Wasn't someone killed like that?

Gasly has been summoned by the race stewards for “reaching speeds up to 250km/h when completing the lap under the red flag after passing the scene of the incident””

Hamilton had this for years. No sympathy.

Went up the inside at the first corner and t-boned Sainz out of the race. He had no chance of getting around without collecting someone.

A move that he only spent a five second penalty for.

What's going on?
Magnusson gets out first in q1 before the rain hits and gets the best time. Russell crashes and during the red flag the rain hits properly and everyone decides there's no point going back out.
Magnusson and Haas for their first ever pole.

So new season and we're in to 2023. Second season of the new car and after the third practice session of the first grand prix at Bahrain it looks like a much closer start to the season. Surprise is how close Aston Martin looks to the traditional top three of the last decade (Red Bull, Mercedes and Ferrari).

@antipodean I was flicking channels and saw a little bit of a practice session
I’m not a big fan of F1 as it becomes a procession of slot cars easily but I do admire the technology and fighter pilot like abilities of the drivers (the over paid posturing can fuck off)
Anyway, what I came to add was there were some excellent in garage shots of drivers waiting to go out and you could really see the scale of the cars against the driver. Again I would draw the fighter jet analogy as these machines are beasts. You just don’t normally get that proportional view -

They look bigger cos of the new cockpits which are barely open anymore. But their garages are like surgeries, so clean. They are an OCD heaven, nothing out of place. They look like display pieces, rather than work sites. Very interesting to wander around
