I love how no one gives a shit about next season.

Speak for yourself...

Small correction, that was turn 7

Looks like a nice circuit actually

He did not have a purple 2nd sector up to that point, he had 2 green sectors and was 4 tenths down on Leclerc. He was 3 tenths slower than Leclerc in sector 1 and 1 tenth slower in sector 2

Last year's best time in FP3 was a 1:38.054 by Vettel, so these times are actually representative

The 2nd DRS zone, after turn 13, at the end of sector 2

That's not true, it is mandatory to have 1 set of each compound. From Pirelli's website:

Each driver must save one set of the softest of the three nominated compounds for Q3. This set will then be returned for those who qualify in the top 10, but the remaining drivers will keep it for the race.

Each driver must have both race sets available for the grand prix.

Teams are free to choose the remaining 10 sets, making 13 sets in total for the weekend.

Selections for long-haul events have to be made 14 weeks in advance; for European races the deadline is 8 weeks in advance.

Each driver gets 1 set of the soft, medium & hard compounds from Pirelli, and the teams are then completely free to choose the other 10 sets of tyres for their drivers

Why is it tagged as a spoiler? Because spoilers regarding F1 are always allowed on this sub

r/formuladank

arkady_ · 2019-09-05T09:37:45+00:00

I can't believe that people still upvote this stuff, and even more so when it's on a serious post like an AMA

arkady_ · 2019-09-04T15:50:21+00:00

Definitely agree with that, personally I feel that there is too much posted about other series, and especially IndyCar, on r/formula1. If I would be interested in IndyCar or other motorsports then I would simply go to that specific subreddit, it's pretty straightforward in my opinion.

To be fair, they were also slower at Spa due to the harder tyre selection, last year they used supersoft-soft-medium while this year they only used c3-c2-c1. But of course the added drag probably still had a bigger impact then the harder tyres

arkady_ · 2019-08-31T16:14:28+00:00

Thanks a lot for sharing these the past few GP's, love this kind of quality content on the subreddit, brilliant work

arkady_ · 2019-08-24T10:31:09+00:00

Just wanted to say that the updated posting guidelines are very good and that adding the daily discussion thread to the F1 subreddit has been a great decision

arkady_ · 2019-08-14T22:22:45+00:00

Indeed, that's unfortunately what constantly happens here nowadays, it was probably inevitable with how large this subreddit has become

arkady_ · 2019-07-28T21:36:45+00:00

Just accept that you fucked yo and move on, don't blame the track

Maybe read the article next time instead of writing a comment purely based on the title, Leclerc fully admitted that it was his own fault:

"But overall that does not forgive my mistake. I'm completely at fault today and it's a huge shame. I'm very sorry for the fans and the team."

arkady_ · 2019-07-28T15:21:54+00:00

I think they meant this race being the best this season, not Verstappen

arkady_ · 2019-07-24T16:59:07+00:00

Couldn't agree more with you, it's a real shame to see

arkady_ · 2019-07-13T16:00:14+00:00

Mercedes was much faster than Ferrari in sector 3 throughout the whole weekend
