Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

I'm just looking for excitement. It's very telling that the "Top 5 Battles of Canada" on the F1 YT channel includes three three-way battles, whereas the "Top 5 Battles of Spain" had a "battle" from qualifying.

I need to see Aston Martin unveil the most illegal, protest-inducing, send-Newey-into-a-coma upgrades and for it to rain so my boy Lance can get that maiden win.

Williams 1-2, verstappen dnf, Charles leclerc now leads in points. Mercedes are running the reverse layout playing mario kart.

Anyone got a weather forecast?

[–] t0fr@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Atm, rain Friday thru Sunday

[–] Tagger@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yay, fun rain or so there will be no race at all rain.

[–] t0fr@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It says 1mm for now, so that sounds like fun rain to me!

[–] bobbo@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I’m going so I’ve been watching the weather closely. Looks like consistent forecasts for intermittent showers throughout the weekend. Should be fun :)

[–] melonpunk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Just hoping it doesn't get smoked out. Had some shitty days recently for that.

At this point I'm just hoping for rain so that Max can at least be challenged by someone

[–] dark_shines11@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But Max is ridiculous in the rain. I don't think that would be enough. I'm not sure anything can stop him at this point.

As a Lewis fan, this isn't what I want to see, but it's hard to begrudge Max fans enjoying how well he's driving.

After Aston's bad weekend in Spain, I'm hoping they can bounce back with an Alonso podium. Mercedes's performance looked promising in Spain, I think it'll be a fight between Hamilton and Alonso for the final podium place behind Verstappen and Pérez.

[–] lordromanov@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I'm still not convinced mercedes is above Aston given how they performed well at Spain last year before dropping down again after. Did the upgrades work or does their car just suit that track still?

[–] GovernorBlaze@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Is it too much to ask for a Ferrari win?

[–] Omgarm@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Depends on what you are willing to sacrifice.

[–] Cmmndrkn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

As a Ferrari fan, yes.
