F1 - 2022 Season

[longers]

Pirelli: [Sean Kelly] The medium-medium-hard tyre strategy did not figure in any of Pirelli's strategy recommendations for today's race, it wasn't even suggested as an alternative to the quicker strategies

lol

cruel, but true. The tactical savvy of Ron Zook. Only the SEC fans here will get it, but that's my take.

Good race from Max and strategy from RB, nicely mirrored by the horrendous Ferrari strategy. Lewis did well too. Really hope he can get a win this season to carry on his record

Verstappen easily gets to 100 race wins, 28 at age 24. He'll have 33 by the end of the season. For reference Lewis had 33 at 30.

You’re assuming he’ll have a competitive car for the rest of his career.

At this rate he will only need 5 or so seasons out of about 10-13 he could have, unless he has a serious accident that cuts that short. He will be classed as the best driver on the grid once Hamilton retires and as long as he doesn't upset people like Alonso does he will be able to move to be in the most competitive car.

That's a terrible move that. Although I read Alpine needed to make space for some young driver coming through otherwise they would have lost him, and it was Alonso who needed to make way. Still, going from a very decent car to a, well, absolutely horrible one, isn't going to score him many points next season. Maybe Lance's dad thinks he can learn a thing or two from Fernando? Who knows.

A lot of hype around this kid so will be good to see him in F1 next year

He's good but he is also overhyped a lot by younguns who think winning F2 is a clear sign of someone being a god tier talent.

What a Piasco.

They say they have a contract with him, which means he should be racing with them next year, whereas it appears he wants to go to McLaren instead.

Not a good week for Alpine considering Alonso bailed from them, which by many accounts was a surprise, and now this with Piastri.

He'd only said the other day he didn't want to go to Williams as they'd hoped.
