Hell, if it rains tomorrow, Russell could be on for a really mega performance considering just how well he was doing.

Reminds me of Barrichello getting pole in Belgium in 1994. Here's hoping for a good result tomorrow.

Well... at least if the race does now happen I can watch it live after my shift at work, rather than on delay as I usually have to for the 2.10pm UK start times!
Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
Liberty Media will be battering down the doors of the FIA's headquarters tomorrow. I know the weather can't be helped, but the byzantine rulebook, three-hour rule and packed calendar effectively means they're losing an entire Grand Prix, and therefore part of their product This will be the last time the three-hour rule exists, mark my words.
Question, can we even award ROTR and IIDOTR for a race that never officially started?
It has led to some quality banter on social media and Discord though, what a glorious mess!![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)

I quite like the way there's a regulation that seems to say you can make up the regulations as you go along to try and get some racing in!
Not sure they'll manage it, sadly.

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
It really doesn't look good this, though, does it?
Pootling around behind the SC in conditions no better than the previous attempt to get it going, seemingly just so they can award half points based on qualifying. Garbage.
Still, at least that made-up decision to let Perez back in ('cos Horner & Marko said so presumably?) is now meaningless.

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
So having done two laps under safety car we can award half points which is quite ridiculous considering how long we’ve had to wait. That said imagine if Verstappen wins the championship after this result? Hamilton fanboys will go more nuclear than normal
While it’s nice to see George and Williams potentially get 2nd to me this is more hollow than Monteiro’s podium at Indianapolis. At least Thiago still to race 3 cars and complete 73 laps. But George still had to do the lap yesterday and you can’t take that from him

That said, Spa is my favorite track to watch, so I’m disappointed, guess I’ll watch the 2019 race.
It's just unbelievable...that Formula 1 could be such a ridiculous melange of idiots.

That must be one of the strangest unrejectifications in modern F1, probably since Monteiro yeah. The "race" "finished" more than five hours ago, but I'm sill slowly processing what on earth happened.

At least Baby-Faced George will get a result that justifies unrejectification sooner rather than later. I wouldn't mind betting it'll happen in the first race of 2022, wherever that is (we all know it won't be Australia). Watching him on the podium it was almost as if he was saying to Lewis "see you next year, mate... get used to this!"
Tiago Monteiro, and not forgetting Narain Karthikeyan, are far better examples of unrejectification being blind to circumstances.

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
I've had an idea...surely there could have been a call to the fans at Spa to volunteer to drive around the circuit for a bit to clear a lot of water, with some kind of disclaimer that it is at their own risk? I don't know...its a bit out there but imo worth a try

I don't know. I've worked at drag strips where we have done that, but roughly 3/4 of a mile all flat and straight is totally different to 4 1/2 twisty uphill miles. Plus the car parks were mud bogs, so all the cars would be dragging mud and gunk everywhere, plus the fans had been sitting for what? 5 hours at that point? I'm sure a few adult beverages would have been consumed (Lord knows I would have) so that would just be asking for an accident.

I believe that the organisers of the Turkish GP did try something similar back in 2020 - in that case, they got a number of hire cars and drove them round the circuit overnight to try and clean up the surface and reduce the amount of water on track.
However, it seems that didn't really make much of a difference for that race, suggesting it might not necessarily have made a lot of difference for Spa either.

So this is now the Netherlands GP discussion thread....
How did the stewards not give Mazepin a penalty for that move in front of Vettel? Regardless of the other cars trundling around, Mazepin chagged direction into the path of a much faster car on a hot lap.
Also it seems he may have been told that Hass have other options for next season judging by his diplomatic and carefully worded response to the incident https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/maze ... e/6660459/

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
Terrible driving from both Haas drivers. It seems that they have a procedure which has apparently just completely broken down between the teammates. Perhaps they're getting on each others nerves.
Reject of the Qualifying for me has to be the Williams drivers. Both had a good chance at Q3 and both binned it and ruined each other's hotlaps. Absolutely crap![Facepalm :facepalm:](./images/smilies/icon_facepalm.png)

I got some IndyCar vibes (or I should say general open-wheel oval vibes) from the last corner. This turned out to just be a fun track to watch cars on, like Suzuka.

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
So this is now the Italian GP discussion thread....
What are people's thoughts on the crowding in the pit lane, at the chicane, and before the last corner? This seems to be a problem specific to Monza because of the old circuit layout, the very high speeds and the pinch points,
The former f1 drivers are clearly concerned that a major accident will be caused by the dawdling and there were one or two very near misses during the SQ. But short of saying that the pit lane may be randomly closed after a given time or using a lottery to select qualy runs I cannot see any solution. At Zandvoort, Masi mandated queueing at the pit exit which seemed to have some effect...

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
I agree with what Martin Brundle said - it's going to take a massive accident before the problem is taken seriously, it seems.
The only thing I can see that would absolutely definitely work is that they resurrect the old style qualifying for Monza only - 1 car at a time does 1 flying lap. That would also reduce the factor of slipstreaming, though admittedly everybody does that so you would imagine that taking that away would still yield roughly the same result.

Re: 2021 Discussion Thread - Styrian GP discussion!
I'm happy about the Monza title contender crash not just because it was an epic sporting moment, but because it evened up the championship in terms of them having the points gap they deserve. Let me explain....
Imola: When a safety car affects a result by changing pit strategies, I'm all over how unfair the world is, but when it just bunches people together, it doesn't bother me. Still, if you're going to talk about the luck each contender had, you can't leave this out.
Baku: This is another weird one. Without Verstappen's blowout it's +11 (he got FL) for him, that's easy. But the "standings of justice" depend on how you want to count Hamilton's mistake. I don't want to say it should actually be +25 to Verstappen when the mistake wouldn't have happened without the restart. And it's tempting to just say that because neither scored, we can comfortably call everything okay and move on. But when you step back, you see that with equal luck, Verstappen should have taken away more points. So +11 to Verstappen.
Silverstone: The crash was mostly Hamilton's fault, since he was the one who understeered, i.e., made a driving mistake. But through the corner, Verstappen wasn't going parallel to the track either, so I call it a racing incident. No compensation warranted.
Hungaroring: In the real world we had +16. If we take their qualifying spots to be the likely results of a "just" race, which I will, it should be +10. So that's +6 to Verstappen.
Spa-Francorchamps: Maybe it should've not been considered a race and Verstappen should lose points, but really, I'm fine with what this did to the championship. Brawn was happy to admit that yes, they did effectively give out points for qualifying, and he likes that. I'm more ambivalent than positive about it, but that's fine.
Monza: Verstappen did what he should've done if he wants to be champion, but the crash was still his fault. Hamilton was on the inside and had a right to the corner. I consider second the likely result for a finishing Hamilton, so that's +18 to Hamilton.
So that's a total of 1 point that Hamilton should have more of. But when you consider getting off easy at Imola and the unforced error at Baku, that 1 point doesn't bother me.
Also, yes, I'm not counting mechanical problems, slow pit stops, and other "team things". I don't think you should when the drivers in question are racing for different teams.
