Hit me with those Baku predictions! |

04.24.23 | gooooooooooooooo nascar |
Jash
04.24.23 | I like it better when they turn right too |
ashcrash9
04.24.23 | primarily a NASCAR fan but I warmed up to F1 during that great 2021 championship battle and gradually lost interest again as it became so Max-dominant. Ricciardo and Seb were my dudes when I did sporadically watch (the time zone conversion is rarely kind since I work most Sunday mornings) and that's taken a toll on my interest this year, but I have friends who are really into it and their enthusiasm rubs off enough on me to keep tabs on the headlines |
Jash
04.24.23 | Despite leader dominance the midfield battles are still incredible to watch if you’re invested. Danny will almost certainly be back in a driving seat next year, and Alonso can be your new Seb. A friend of mine sent me a site where you can watch them back for free years ago, I’ll see if I can find it and send it your way, I finally pulled the trigger and got the F1 Live subscription because I got tired of waking up at 4-6AM for most races |

garas
04.25.23 | Heyho!
> Hit me with those Baku predictions!
VER-PER-ALO. And I feel one Williams car will finish in the points. |
garas
04.25.23 | I'm a big fan of RedBull and F1 since the Vettel-era. |
Jash
04.26.23 | My hope is that Checo tags Max on the first corner, they both dnf, then Alonso wins and leads the championship standings for one race. That being said, it’s more than likely the prediction you said. Hamilton drives great here, so if they get lucky on strategy Alonso might face some heat for third, but not likely.
All that being said, it’s the first sprint weekend with the new format, so only one practice session and quali on the same day might shake up the race order like we’ve never seen. Can’t say I’m in love with these sprint races, and the new rules around them this year, but it might shake the grid up in an interesting way, we’ll see. |
garas
04.26.23 | Tbh, I hate the entire sprint race/weekend thing. It adds nothing to the sport, just unnatural excitement factor. Less practicing often may shake up the grid, but it'd be easier to reduce them a little bit (BUT also giving extra testing time to the teams, that'd be the only way to be fair).
I also want to see Alonso win again, but I don't think this will be that track. Aston isn't that strong if high top speed is required. |
dedex
04.26.23 | im all for Alonso this year (bc Alpine will make a point in disappointing me) |
Jash
04.26.23 | Speaking of race daddy Alonso, can you imagine if these Taylor Swift dating rumours are true? What part of El Plan is this??? |
Jash
04.29.23 | Just watched Quali, Leclerc turns his early season woe’s around for now, Mclaren bring (something) to the table for once, and DeVries continues to prove he’s the disappointment of the year |
YoYoMancuso
04.29.23 | Red Bull has been absolutely dominant to start the year, would be great to see Scuderia get a win on Sunday. 2022 was an amazing showing from Red Bull and Max but the season was so dull
then again, maybe we were just spoiled by the spectacle of 2021 |
MisogynysticTryhard
04.29.23 | Proud Lewis fan here
I hate Max, Russell, Gasly with a passion. The most entitled racers I’ve ever seen.
Lewis is nothing but pure class. |
Jash
04.30.23 | Big Lewis fan here too, agree with everything you said after.
Bought F1TV last night (about damn time), making dinner then sitting down to watch the sprint race from today |
Jash
04.30.23 | Watching Max yell at and chase after George when they had the post sprint race interviews was hilarious, it takes two to diva |
YoYoMancuso
04.30.23 | Max will do things with his car that I've literally never seen before and then just ruin all his likability by being a drama queen
Pulling for Leclerc tomorrow |
Jash
04.30.23 | So happy Perez got lucky with that safety car today to shut Max down. Leclerc also did a hell of a job keeping Alonso at bay, race daddy was lighting it up at the end there, my word |
YoYoMancuso
04.30.23 | happy Ferrari finally got a podium. I'd love to see Checo continue to win, if only to surpass Max in the championship |
Jash
05.01.23 | The only thing that would make me happier than Alonso taking the drivers championship this year is if Checo stole it from Max. Both are pipe dreams, but man does it make me happy to think about those scenarios |
MisogynysticTryhard
05.01.23 | The top comment on the official highlight video
“Whoever stretched this to 7 minutes deserves a medal”
Big facts. Feel like half of these races are nothing more than a designed/safe exhibition race.
The races just feel way too safe and relaxed most of the time. Like the drivers aren’t even really challenged in any way. |
MisogynysticTryhard
05.01.23 | Praying that Ferrari/Aston can make it a bit more interesting down the stretch |
Jash
05.01.23 | That won’t change this year if you’re focus is on the front runners, the midfield battles have been super interesting so far this year. 2026 is when everything will get completely shaken up again, but I’m hoping Ferrari/Merc/Aston can get a bit closer before then |
MisogynysticTryhard
05.01.23 | What’s the deal with alpha tauri this season? Didn’t their team principal step down? Feel as if they were on the way up prior to this season, now fighting Williams/haas for the basement it seems |
YoYoMancuso
05.01.23 | Yuki was able to get into the points after Ocon almost killed a gaggle of press photographers in the pit, but De Vries is an absolute shit tier driver |
Jash
05.01.23 | Tost is stepping down at the end of the year, someone from Ferrari will be replacing him. Yuki is a super underrated driver, I can’t wait to see him get a better car under him in the future. Nyck is easily the biggest disappointment from all the rookies, and going into this he was my bid to have the best rookie season of the three |
Jash
05.01.23 | That whole pit lane incident was absolutely insane, so thankful nobody got hurt |
YoYoMancuso
05.07.23 | Leclerc's crash ended up screwing both him and Max, this is probably Alonso's best opportunity to snag a win @Jash |
Jash
05.07.23 | They have to hope that Red Bull fucks up the strategy, because Checo is on one this year, I’ll be happy if either of them win |
YoYoMancuso
05.07.23 | it feels weird for me to simultaneously hate a team and love one of their drivers, but Checo has been one of my favorites ever since his crazy Sakhir win |
Jash
05.07.23 | I feel the exact same way, I live in a fantasy world where somehow he beats Max this year |
MisogynysticTryhard
05.08.23 | I want to care about f1 so badly, but the competition is lacking and it has been for ages it seems. Also, hard lol@ Logan Sargent. Watched the highlights and at one point, without a noted incident, he was 15 seconds behind the car ahead of him.
I’m just a casual fan, and I appreciate the sport, but it’s nothing really but an exhibition in my opinion. No one that isn’t already into the sport is going to get excited for a 5th place battle. |
Piglet
05.08.23 | Every time I try to watch the F1 I'm reminded by how much better the MotoGP is. For one thing you can overtake, and cunts leaning nigh horizontally, scraping their knees on tarmac at 300km/h around corners hits different. Also everything about Verstappen is eerily similar to that of a rodent, if a rodent was a man. not gud |
YoYoMancuso
05.08.23 | Disappointing race for Ferrari : ( |
garas
05.08.23 | Legends say Max's hard tires are still usable. It was crazy how smoothly he won... and to see Leclerc struggling to overtake K-Mag, that was unreal. Miami was OK. |
anarchistfish
05.08.23 | Miami is one of the worst f1 tracks I've ever seen |
garas
05.08.23 | Nothing beats Le Castellet as the worst track, imo. |
Jash
05.08.23 | I watched the motogp season opener thinking it would spark another addiction but I was pretty disappointed, it felt like it was over almost as soon as it started, undeniably an incredible sport though.
Max’s drive was pretty incredible, I was really pulling for Checo. Daddy Alonso is the new Mr. Consistency |
Jash
05.15.23 | Who’s betting Nyck gets replaced after the Spanish GP? Marko has given him the ultimatum |
YoYoMancuso
05.16.23 | who would AlphaTauri give the seat to? |
Jash
05.16.23 | Ayumu Iwasa or Liam Lawson |
Jash
05.18.23 | So bummed Imola got cancelled, but I hope everything out there settles down soon for the locals. Fingers crossed they reschedule it for later in the year |
Jash
05.29.23 | What a wild last quarter of the race, Monaco in the rain is the best. Still shocked that Ocon managed P3, so happy Alonso got P2.
Side note, what’s everyone thinking about that new Mercedes car? Arguably the worst track to have to test it out on so it’ll be a couple races to get proper data and tweak it, but thank god they finally realized the zero side pod concept wasn’t going to work |
YoYoMancuso
05.29.23 | I think Lewis’s drive signifies that the new car could get some results, Monaco is just Monaco |
garas
05.30.23 | Monaco is the best, sadly the rain did not bring the chaos I wanted to see. Shame for the bad Aston strategy with the medium tire...
> What’s everyone thinking about that new Mercedes car?
I hope it's worse than it was. |
garas
06.04.23 | I can't wait for the race today. The Spanish qualy was... spicy. |
garas
06.04.23 | This was lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5db_abpMNQo |
Jash
06.04.23 | Oh man was it ever! Can’t watch until later, silencing all my phone notifications so it doesn’t get spoiled for me |
Jash
06.04.23 | Race daddy radio strikes again |
garas
06.05.23 | Race was a snoozefest, Max could have stop for a quick nap even, lol. God bless Zhou for delivering almost all the actions on track. (Plus he really deserved those points.) |
Jash
07.02.23 | Okay can we talk about how yesterdays sprint race was the best racing we’ve seen all season??? Going out for a short hike before coming home to watch the actual race, very excited though. Red Bull Ring is easily one of my fav tracks, would love to attend one year and camp in that gorgeous country side then choke on orange flair smoke all weekend |
YoYoMancuso
07.02.23 | Ferrari not sucking ass????? |
garas
07.02.23 | > Okay can we talk about how yesterdays sprint race was the best racing we’ve seen all season???
It wasn't that good, imo. But it was faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more interesting than the main race, though. Except the constant penalties for track limits + Lando's performance. McLaren is good again?? |
dedex
07.03.23 | McLaren isn't good again, Lando is just really really really good. All those penalties were ridiculous tho, 3/4 of the grid got penalties. Why don't they just put gravel in those areas so that drivers have no incentive to go off-track limits |
Jash
07.03.23 | Once they get the upgrades on Piastri’s car as well we’ll see how much the team as a whole has improved, but Lando’s car had much more pace this weekend. As for the track limits, they’re professional drivers, they shouldn’t have to put gravel for them to stay in the lines, and not every single driver got penalties on race day, so it clearly can be done |
garas
07.03.23 | "and not every single driver got penalties on race day, so it clearly can be done"
Absolutely. If Russel and Zhou could complete a race in the lines (not a single issue with track limits), so the rest could do as well. Like Verstappen and Alonso also finished the race with only one deleted lap.
(Another good reason why Ocon doesn't deserve that seat at all.) |
Jash
07.03.23 | Yeah Ocon’s performance was laughable, 30 seconds worth of penalties |
Jash
07.03.23 | McLaren kind of missed on this upcoming anniversary livery, I get the intent but they should’ve just dropped the orange if they wanted to pay homage to that chrome era. Although it hasn’t been fully released, that snippet of the Williams one is exactly what I hoped for and I’m so stoked to see that car on track next weekend |
garas
07.04.23 | Yeah, it really feels like a missed opportunity. If I'd their designer, I'd go with chrome base with the google colors instead of orange - that'd be really "Chrome"! *ba dumm tsss* |
Jash
07.09.23 | What was that about McLaren not being good again? |
YoYoMancuso
07.09.23 | Ferrari once again sucking ass????? |
Jash
07.09.23 | How the turn tables
Amazing drives from Lando and Oscar, Albon hanging on at the end was great too. Also, has Perez officially lost his seat next year? |
YoYoMancuso
07.09.23 | i'd be surprised, he still has 2 wins this year |
garas
07.10.23 | > What was that about McLaren not being good again?
See??
It doesn't look good for Perez atm, but yeah he won two races after all. I think he can stay if he won't start fucking up everything. But de Vries though... Danny Ric back to the Alpha Tauri? (Inner scream: yeeeesss) |
dedex
07.10.23 | uh yeah McLaren was flying this weekend.
Danny Ric back to the grid would be amazing yeah. Shame that de Vries doesn't deliver tho.
also: another shit weekend for Alpine. idk what is happening but this is real bad |
garas
07.12.23 | Danny Ric is back 😎 I should have bet on it. |
dedex
07.12.23 | good for him! kinda feel bad for De Vries, shows once again that Red Bull are mega pushy in terms of results. I bet Perez is sweating hard now. |
Jash
07.12.23 | This is totally Helmut getting Danny back in the groove so he can take over for Checo next year |
Jash
07.23.23 | Turn 1 is gonna be lit this weekend my dudes |
Jash
09.17.23 | Great race today, Sainz using Lando as defence was a masterclass in intelligent driving. Liam Lawson getting his first points and Piastri gaining 10 places in their first Singapore GP’s is also huge |
dedex
09.18.23 | amazing race yeah!! really gutted for Ocon tho, the Alpine dual points finish was almost in da pocket. Happy for Lawson and Sainz!! |
garas
09.18.23 | Happy for Lawson and Sainz!! [2] |
Jash
09.24.23 | Can’t wait for race night tonight, one of my favourite tracks on the calendar, so glad it’s not pouring rain like last year |
dedex
09.26.23 | mclaren really turned shit around bravo to them
also really wish Lawson will get a seat next year (Sargeant out?) |
garas
09.26.23 | Sargeant is stressed af, and looks like performing under pressure is not his biggest strengths. If I'd in the position of Vowles, I'd send a contract to Lawson asap, even if a one-yearer is the only possible option due to Liam's other contract to RedBull. |
Jash
09.26.23 | Yeah Sargent needs to go, highly doubt that Lawson will go there though as he’s gonna be in the Alpha once Yuki or Daniel take Checo’s seat |
Jash
10.22.23 | Today is going to be a wild one, Hamilton might have a chance at a win considering Ferrari (….), but if Norris can keep it together it will get super interesting |
Jash
10.22.23 | Lewis was flying at the end, if they boxed him a couple laps earlier I think he might have had Max. Also so happy Yuki got into the points |
Jash
10.29.23 | Danny Ric starting P4 today, let’s goooooooo |
garas
11.05.23 | Fernnnnnnnando Alonsoooooooo!! Without him this race could have been an absolute snoozefest. |
Jash
11.06.23 | Yessssss, so happy he got back on the podium |
Jash
11.06.23 | Also, Leclerc in the barriers on the formation lap then his interview after was hysterical |
Jash
03.02.24 | We back baby!!!
Really excited to see how this first race plays out, single lap pace for everyone is much closer so far, but we’ll see about full race pace tomorrow |
Jash

rockandmetaljunkie
07.07.24 | Used to watch A LOT of F1 in the 00's until the early 10's, now my interest in the sport has waned. I stopped watching after 2015... |
YoYoMancuso
07.08.24 | mercedes with 2 wins in a row. this has been so much more interesting than last season |
Jash
07.08.24 | 6 different race winners this year, I’m loving it |
zakalwe
07.08.24 | F1 in the 80s was incredible, early 90s amazing and then it just slowly became more and more staid.
The worst of the popular sports that aren’t American.
|
garas
07.08.24 | > 6 different race winners this year, I’m loving it
Albon needs to win this year with Williams, ehehehe |
Jash
07.09.24 | Given that they’ve got James Vowels heading the team into the new regulations in 2026, and rumours that the new engine Mercedes have developed is top shelf, a Albon win with Williams might not be too far away. He signed for 4 years based off reports of how good that engine is going to be |
Jash
07.28.24 | What a rollercoaster today. Incredible race all in all, then a disqualification for George?! Makes sense why Lewis couldn’t get him now. Amazing drive from Piastri as well, this kid is the future for sure |
Jash
09.01.24 | Absolute SCENES in Monza today! Oscar clearly driving that orange machine way better than Lando, but Ferrari’s strategy team get their years salary in one race. So happy for Charles to win both his home GP this year. Even happier with how this constructors championship is shaping up |
garas
09.02.24 | Oscar is much better than Lando. He lacks some experience, though. I also was very happy for Charles, finally a well-executed strategy from Ferrari, ehehe! Plus, I am very happy about Williams: Alex brought scores again, and Franco finished 12th as a newbie - that's massive improvement! |
Jash
09.15.24 | What. A. Race.
Oscar showing prowess beyond his years! Lando with a fantastic recovery drive, as well as Lewis. Berman AND Colapinto in the points?!
This season is shaping up to be one of the best in years, cannot wait to see what the remaining races bring |
Jash
09.26.24 | 100th comment in the thread happens to be my send off to Danny Ric, only seems fair. His character did so much for the sport, if this is truly it for him we’ve lost a legend.
Thanks for the good times |
garas
09.27.24 | RB was way too harsh on him. Like, why not kicking Perez too, at the same time? He's underperforming as well, and in an even more embarassing way. Unfair, poor Danny Ric... he deserved better. |
Jash
09.27.24 | They had to ditch him now because there was a stipulation in Lawson’s contract that if he wasn’t in a Red Bull (affiliated) seat by September 2024, he could look elsewhere. Perez should’ve been ditched halfway this season to give Danny half a last year there, but also Perez brings in so much contract money that’s the same reason he started this year |
Jash
11.03.24 | Okay, as much as I hate Max, even more so after his wild driving the last couple races, he put on an absolute masterclass today. One of, if not the drives of the year. Alpine potentially running a 50 million dollar gaining race out of nowhere was not expected. All together one of the most exciting qualifying sessions and races of the year |
AnimalForce1
11.03.24 | Super insane race, especially with a black flag involved. Verstappen put on a show, but fuck me it’s so boring to see him win again and again, even with the insanely good performance. I was more hyped about the Alpine success tbh |
ashcrash9
11.03.24 | [2] |
Jash
11.03.24 | I can’t understand anyone saying it’s boring seeing him win with that kind of performance, I’m the biggest Max hater and I was jaw dropped by that drive. Alpine lucked out with a car that was bad in the dry, but somehow came alive in the wet, along with some advantageous yellow and red flags in quali and the race, but props to them for holding their ground in the long run |
garas
11.04.24 | Nah, the Alpines were the lucky ones since (turns out) noone other than Max knows how to drive in wet conditions. Lando showed poor performance with those lame mistakes, so he should blame himself too not just being unlucky. I'm super sad for the Williams team... man, this weekend was harsh on them. |
Jash
03.14.25 | Alright fam, first session of what is going to be the greatest season of the last decade (at least) has come to an end. Looking likes it’s going to be a wet opening race, which is going to make this even better. 7 rookies, Lewis in red gunning for his 8th, Max on the back foot, and Mclaren with two drivers that could be fighting for the championship between the two of them. What a time to be watching 20 cars driving around fancy circles |
garas
03.14.25 | Go Williams!
I can't wait for the rainy season opener! |
Jash
03.15.25 | Sainz is looking so good in that Williams so far, I’m here for it |

03.15.25 | Still don't understand Red Bull picking Lawson over Tsunoda |

Egarran
03.15.25 | So this is where garas is hiding. |
Jash
03.16.25 | “Still don't understand Red Bull picking Lawson over Tsunoda”
Because Honda is no longer their power unit provider and Helmut Marko’s racism. With Honda providing power units to Aston Martin starting next year I’m pretty sure he’ll end up move there and replacing Lance Stroll. |
Jash
03.16.25 | What an absolute heater of a first race, did not have Mercedes leading the constructors in my cards. Sauber scoring more points this race than all of last year, Alpine carrying on their trajectory from late last year, Haas straight to the back, and that Williams is looking super good, minus Carlos binning it under the safety car |
Jash
06.19.25 | Attended the Canadian Grand Prix over the weekend, was such a cool experience, although my favourite part of the trip was having my brother do some reel to reel mastering on one of the last demo’s I made before my hard drive crashed and I lost all project files.
George deserved that win after such an incredible quali lap, Mercedes made the right choice going to the mediums (which we can all thank Aston Martin and Alonso for), also so happy for Kimi and his first podium. Lando continues to prove that he is a loose canon, thankfully he didn’t take out Oscar too |
