    Kaya nga! New track, interesting since short track. Traffic (during qualifying is a challenge) and search for clean air.

    Max is really good but among the much younger drivers, Norris and Leclerc can be better with a much better car. Let’s wait for the younger Schumacher to join into the fray.

    Si Bottas nung nasa Williams tapos nalipat sa Mercedes ganun din.

    Wala na yung panahon nila Alonso, Senna, Lauda na yung skills ng driver ang nagpa panalo sa kanila.
    Schumacher's dominant era (2000-2004) was also in a Ferrari that was head and shoulders above competition.

    Formula 1 has never been about equal machinery (it's not a one-make race series after all). The best teams always get the best drivers to improve their chances of winning.

    So-so driver like Bottas can consistently get the best car on the podium, but it takes a special talent like Lewis to consistently win. He has won when the car was not performing very well (Turkey), has won with impressive tire management on 3 wheels (Silverstone), and has climbed up the points despite being last on the grid (Monza).

    Bottas in Bahrain last week has shown that it's not easy driving a Merc in traffic (barely got in the points). But he's there because he qualifies well, and serves as a good second-fiddle to Lewis, enough to easily secure constructor's championship for Mercedes. They don't need another Hamilton-Rosberg rivalry - they score more points and win more races with a clear #1 and obedient #2.

    Russell will get the seat in 2022 (either LH retirement or Bottas kicked out) but Sakhir is a good opportunity to show that he definitely deserves it.

    Am very impressed with Max's talent but kid has got serious entitlement and attitude issues.

    First time to watch F2 for a change - Mick Schumacher really does live up to the name. Rose from P18 to P7 by the end of the race to keep a 14 point lead from Illott in the championship.

    Down to the wire in tomorrow's sprint race but Schumacher will be starting from the front row so should be an advantage for him.

    Tsunoda also securing his superlicense with a win in this race, improving his chances on the 2nd Alpha Tauri seat (to Albon's misfortune).

    F1 is maybe around 15% about the driver.
    These drivers (especially those on top) doesnt have that much difference among them.
    The car is what separates them apart.

    Ground effect dues to sealed floor
    Double deck diffuser
    F-Duct
    Mass damper suspension
    And the list goes on...

    On the Hungarian GP, still can't understand yung lone restart daw ni Lewis Hamilton on the Mercedes. As I understand, they're supposed to do the restart on the pits, pero he did it yata on the track. There's footage of his restart with the pace car behind, but can't find a full footage with an explanation of what happened.

    Watching Formula 1 on Netflix, I'm just amazed that these 'kids' almost grew up together on the tracks, starting from their go-kart racing days. Some go on to race in Formula 1, while the others were left to compete on Formula 2 while waiting for their chance to move up to the bigger league.

    Standing start talaga, what I understand is bawal mag instruct ang pitwall sa drivers during formation lap. Yet drivers can enter pit then doon mag start.

    Ocon did, everyone followed. Nagpalit ng slicks.

    Everyone decided to start on the pits since they changed tires which wouldve been a disadvantage. But the advantage of slicks over inters more than made up for it. And LH had to pit in the next lap anyway.

    And despite all that - LH still finished on the podium.

    I’m bummed for Seb losing his podium though. 18 pts down the drain [emoji2959]
