The Japanese believe that his PU cannot be repaired for the rest of the season and that the reigning World Champion has already lost one PU from his pool.
This means that he will have to complete the next 22 race weekends - including 6 sprint races - with 3 PU's !

Killed the PU in Turn 10 during FP1. Pilot error. So Mad Max is human instead of a T-1000 killbot.

Oh no! He *maybe* won't win one race, that one is for Checo! The competition in F1 is fierce this year!

It's good that Williams races with Mercedes engines, otherwise team MERC would be the slowest team on the grid with a Mercedes engine....
Their start of the year is a disaster.
You start to wonder if Hammy already knew this years car would be this bad...again when he signed at ferrari

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:00 AM

anyone online in this nightly hour? (for us europeans that is)
I deceded not to watch a rerun; the australian gp is usually good for quite a bit of chaos. Better to experience that live

Of course my friend...

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:02 AM

Hammy on softs, ALO on hards...

I think the prediction for tyres was med-hard-hard.
But maybe Hammy knows something the other drivers dont

I had a party last night from a mate of mine who turned 50....
I went by train....obviously not because I like trains.
So I was back at 2.00, decided not to sleep. Thats for after the race.

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:05 AM

A clean start. A wonder

And it looks like Max will be out of DRS range before DRS?
edit:0,9sec

And sai follows and now leads!!

SAINZ got DRS and is P1 now !

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:07 AM

What a move from SAI!

G30M · 03-24-2024, 12:08 AM

carlos strategy: back up Max for Lando to attack?

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:09 AM

And it seems that the Mclarens can follow too.
I wonder if Max has a problem.

G30M · 03-24-2024, 12:09 AM

brake fire?

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:10 AM

Edit: Max has definately a technical problem
His new engine goes bye bye. Or brake? or fluid from the engine on the brake?

Artemis · 03-24-2024, 12:10 AM

Brakes on fire. Max is DNF.

LAP 4 : Smoke and fire at the right rear end of MAX's car ...

MAX is DNF !!!!

GuidoK · 03-24-2024, 12:12 AM

This is the moment Checo has to take over!
That's his job.
