@WhiskeySandwich even live the chances of the app and whatever broadcast being in synch are very long. I’ll generally find a good obvious spot, pause the broadcast, and let the live replay get to that spot and quickly hit play. It’s not that bad.
This Red Bull thing sure is dramatic. Not the kind of drama I enjoy either.
-
@mclaincausey I'm sure i'll get it down. Newb troubles for me.
dramatic redbull thing? did i miss something?
-
@goosehd huh, i havent heard a thing about it, strangely.
I have this thing where i live under a rock and avoid a lot of drama. -
@WhiskeySandwich One of the staff members who work(ed) at Red Bull accused Horner of demanding/controlling behaviour with very few details being released a little over a month ago. Red Bull hired a lawyer to investigate the complaint which has been ultimately dismissed. After the results of the investigation were released, the initial complaint was dismissed with nothing really being at issue. A mysterious random email was then sent to 149 people involved with F1 detailing the nature of the complaint.
Verstappen’s dad (Jos) has chimed in that the complaint is causing a lot of stress in and around the team and it needs to be dealt with. Everyone has chimed in with their views on this and commented that the entire situation is a disruption to F1.
The person who initiated the complaint was ultimately let go (fired) today for not being truthful.
-
@goosehd I guess cancel culture is still a thing. I’m glad it worked itself out. Thank you for the deets btw!
-
The truth is likely that this accusation was being used by internal factions pro and con the Horner regime.
Jos Verstappen of all people had the temerity to lash out at Horner’s alleged moral decrepitude.
-
Jeddah is going to be spicy. What a wild track. Seems inherently dangerous. I hope we get a great weekend!
-
@mclaincausey haters gonna hate, and some people looking for trouble find it. Hopefully they clear it up because it’s sounds like something everyone can do without.
-
@mclaincausey yeah every time I see them run this track I don’t remember it looking so ballsy. Some tracks just seem like they’re looking for trouble, speaking of my previous post
-
Jeddah was almost surprisingly predictable. Not bad in the midfield. Was impressed by Bearman. Thoughts on Lando's jump start? Seeing as he self-corrected and gained no advantage, I guess that's why they took no further action. Def seems like the Stewards were all over the place though.
-
bearman looking good. definitely one to look out for in the future. aside from the obvious red bull, it's nice to see Ferrari stick it up there. let's be honest, no one is really catching that RB this year in terms of race pace..
also stroll going into the wall again after people telling him there was one in practice.. and the engineers asking if he could bring the car home was gold..
-
Bearman did a great drive and also bold to say ‘they’re so slow man’ which shows his young age in a good way! Leclerc also drove a solid race but was nowhere near the RB’s solid surprise is that Perez didn’t fuck up anything this time. Max is writing his memoirs in front of the pack
-
Today is a great day..
-
Another walk in the park
-
That sprint battle for third! Nice one Checo
-
Not a fan of the format overall but a good sprint. Gutted for Lando.
-
@mclaincausey yeah same. Shitluck, but he also cooked that corner. Nerves. Lewis seemed happy tho. Also bummed for Fernando. Loved seeing that battle tho, Ferrari clash and all. Big Leclerc fan but I’m team Carlos lol
-
Nice to see Lewis battle again.. but then they were way of in the quali… Max is going to presume writing his memoirs on front today
-
Nice surprise and redemption from Lando
