I expect to see the safety car a lot ! And a disaster as well...

Honestly , this track looks like a (deadly) trap ...And I fear the worst for the drivers safety !

Doesn't happen often, but I'm 100% in agreement with you.
This track looks like a bumper car crash fest waiting to happen.
....especially with the high speeds

This track is the second longest out of all of them, just Spa at 800 metres longer.

That may be the one thing that limits a crash fest, if the field gets spread out a bit on the long track.

I reckon that's right but the start will be the tell all and Alonso's prediction of no calamity could be right.

GuidoK · 12-03-2021, 12:57 PM

wow pretty hard crash for Lec. (not full throttle though)
But he's ok, the barrier did it's work.

E90SLAM · 12-03-2021, 12:57 PM

Glad Leclerc is ok.

I've watched this 5 times my friend and now we know why they are the highest paid drivers.

It's always so funny to compare these laps with the laps from the safety car:

Now the safetycar is of course an aston martin Vantage, which I consider 'a fast car', and you hear the tyres squeal in the corner (so the driver is giving it the beans), but man does it look slow compared to F1

On camera everything always looks slower so I don't think I can even comprehend how it would look like actually sitting in an F1 car.

Exactly . It looks like the safety car runs in slow motion ..

What do you think for Sunday . MAX or HAM ?

While he was steering in ,he ran too wide over the curbs and lost traction ..
Yeah ,of course it was his own mistake ..
