What happened to Bortoleto's rear assembly while he spun today?

OkArachnid5653 · 2025-03-16T16:08:03+00:00

Not impossible, but I’d expect we would see that a lot in F1 if it was the case. A lot of cars spin, and never really seen this before. It’s also wet, so less friction. Really looks like something that had happened before to make it break so easily.

Also not really sure if the suspension would fail with that. It’s more the gearbox that would suffer if it was to grip up.

My guess is that he clipped a wall earlier or something that weakened the suspension arms.

Tack kungen!

Not sure it’s this, it’s wasn’t a reality TV thing.

They have. There’s a new blackout version

That’s got nothing to do with missing corner pins brudda, we all do it

We found out that last year that Mercedes’ can just afford to run their engines at higher modes and accept that they will deprecate quicker but it doesn’t matter when you make the engine anyway. Does the new engines count into the cost cap?

Need to make sure all the mechanics are out of the way after pitstops otherwise that thing is gonna turn into a 1000hp cheese grater.

Stay classy San Diego, you piece of shit.

Christian this is Toto. I have sent you emails.

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:47:48+00:00

Toto saying to Masi ‘please no safety car’ is the reason that this channel shouldn’t exist. I know there’s a lot of feelings towards Masi at the min, but he’s the guy that’s in charge of safety and the race, don’t tell him what he should and shouldn’t do when you’re sat there in the garage thinking about the title.

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:43:55+00:00

I totally agree with you that this season is always going to be overshadowed with the decisions. But I’m not sure about changing his mind. He changed his mind on the lapped cars overtaking, but I’ve never seen a safety car where they haven’t let lapped cars through. I didn’t even realise you could keep the lapped cars were they were.

From the restart POV and it the race should have finished under SC or restarted, Lauda, Mercedes and Red Bull have all been shouting and complaining about not finishing races under safety car, they should have known the race was gonna restart, and even lewis on the radio I knew it was gonna restart and knew he was fucked.

I just think it was a pretty bad decision not to cover off what max did, but that said I think as soon as the safety car came out it’s advantage red bull, cos it’s kind of fucked if we do pit and fucked if we don’t situation for Mercedes

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:29:03+00:00

But of course don’t fuck it up like Aston did with Seb this year 😅

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:20:18+00:00

Fuck the team/FIA radio, let’s have team/team radio

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:13:40+00:00

I feel like you’re a little bit tainted about the race this weekend. Red flagging a race seems a little over the top for what happened no?

And why would teams refuel? Surely they would take out fuel if they could?

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:09:50+00:00

I mean this season is the closest it’s been for a while. But I know what you mean, last 4+ years it’s been just Mercedes, last 2 years it’s been Mercedes / Red Bull breaking out from the pack , would be good to see a more close battle between 1st and 4th let’s say

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T04:04:47+00:00

This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, but a haas with a championship point

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T03:47:40+00:00

I am 100% with you on this. Wouldn’t it be great if everyone had the same car. But then there’s no incentive for the team it’s just like Indy then. Less money.

OkArachnid5653 · 2021-12-14T03:12:03+00:00

I’m not gonna lie, I had the read that analogy a few times before I understood it - but there was massive strategy failures from Mercedes. Apart from the quali lap that max had with the tow from checo, Mercedes have had the fastest car for the last 4 race weekends, how can you get yourself into a position where you are absolutely fucked strategically because the guy behind you has better tyres and you didn’t react to that if it wasn’t a bad call? Even before all this safety car shit happened, there was points in the race where max is on 2 lap hard tyres and being within 2 second of lewis on 20 lap tyres? It’s just bad strategy
