How to make this F1 interesting again?
Even if Max starts last, he ends up winning the races.

What is the secret of Redbull?

We have nearly 10000 people working on the other cars and nobody can discover it.

I dont really know man, i want also to see some real action for the winner of the race, but seems like impossible this year. For worst im gonna repeat what i said early, if you see anyone can battle against the Perez RedBull or at least be near him, but when we talk about the Max Verstappen Red Bull nobody has a chance, its like a F1 against a F2 car.

Agree FIA needs to change his policies, i know the safety first its ok, but now they are so much afraid about everything, its a danger sport everyone knows this.

About the rain itself i read some articles where they showed they are having a very bad problem with the new desing of the cars who felt so much water to the rear so the driver behind cant see anything.

This race was really fun with all this entries on the box and change of the tyres, sad to ended not so good in terms of fun. Asides of this i repeat what i said early, clearly Perez car its not the same as Verstappen, do you see how Verstappen cut the distance between them with Inters? I know MV its a way better driver,but cutting 2 seconds per lap in a short circuit? Really?

What kind of pussies are the race control of FIA.How come you can stop the race in the best possible moment of the race where a lot of aqua planning was happening,it was an error of most teams to go for the intermediate tires when heavy rain was coming,they should have left the race go through as Verstappen asked why did they throw the red flag,they,FIA race control are making even more boring what is a real boring season,this race was interesting exactly because of the rain which came and changed everything around.I lost even more points now as I had Perez second while the Redbull team for the first time made a worst mistake,they call him in the pits just 1 second before the red flag.

I agree with you about that. FIA should let the drivers race under this kind of a rain. As long as there isn't a situation like the track is flooded I think it is drivable. Verstappen was able to finish a lap under heavy rain with wet tyres. There are only 8 laps left for the end of the race. I think they could have finished the race under these conditions.

We still don't know when the race will restart. By the way the third place was given back to Perez. He is lucky to be in this situation now after going out of the track and losing a few places. Gasly and Albon are doing a pretty good work today too.

Quite the race and we are not over! I do expect the race to resume and give us the last 5 laps on circuit but Max cannot lose the race no matter what. At least this race wasn't as much as boring as the last ones and if we could have rain on all race at least for a couple of laps , that would bring a lot more hype around the race itself.

I can't hold myself to applause the crowd of Zandvoort as they really know how to put a show and also have fun no matter what weather is around the track. Grin

Raining all night and showers in the morning here. Don't know if that stays on the tracks but it will not at all be hot.

Toke it matters. You can't change your picks if you want those EB points.

Quote from: casperBGD on August 26, 2023, 01:49:35 PM

Belgium was first time that I missed EB points, and only yellow cap this season for me
maybe there is something in that missing of EB points, it could be back through podium bonus, which is much easier to settle if you know qualification results
and getting all points for podium with bonus is better than just winning Max at first position, since that is what everyone is putting lately

didn't do that this time, but thought about that for following races

Let's see how I end up.

It's 3 missed points, which feels like a lot, to catch up you need to get 2 podiums right, so the advantage lies in picking out the rest of the finishers -- but I couldn't really tell so in this round I simply assumed most of the grid stay in points, with some overtaking.

Looks like I was horribly wrong... and another DNF for Leclerc.

Quote from: 1miau on August 26, 2023, 05:29:21 PM

Maybe you can gain back 1 or 2 points tomorrow by knowing qualifying result already.
For example, no one expected Albon, he qualified at posititon number 4 today and Williams seems to be very strong here. Sargeant had a crash unfortunately but he still qualified Top 10 for tomorrow.
Or podium positions like suggested by casperBGD.

I did indeed put Albon in 8th, and both Brits on podium, hoping their performance in Q continues and their cars don't let them down! They let me down lap 55 now and out of sight.

Quote from: cryptofrka on August 27, 2023, 06:05:46 AM

Same thing happened to me, at least I managed to submit on time for the actual race placement.
In this pool it's especially punishing when you don't submit and it has happened to me too often already.

Still - I managed to win 2 of jeremypwr's race contests so I already got most of my money's worth - now I can finish last in the pool with no regrets Grin

Yeah, I did remember F1 needs before qualifying. 2 points guaranteed and with Max's domination, pole adds to 3, it's a mountain to climb. You're right about all these prediction contests. Play them all, win once or twice and it's money returned at worst. I do have a hard time remembering them!

^ Afaik, it wouldn't have mattered much if you made your picks after quali as we'd most likely change our picks after the grid is set and forfeit the points made on our pick for pole position right? I think it's a necessary gambit to get more points post race.

But yeah, I made my picks after quali too. So that's what I'm telling myself rn. Cheesy

And judging from the gap between Verstappen and the rest at Q3, I think he'll win with a more than 15 second gap later.

Well it was a chaotic first stint for the race.The team at Redbull clearly favors Max Verstappen by undercutting Perez through the pit stop when this is not at all needed since Max Verstappen was at a certain lap with over 4 seconds difference in a single lap when they were using the intermediate tires.

Now the Safety Car has made the gaps go away and we have Redbull one two now which will be extremely difficult to change until the end of race unless the drivers make some errors as the rain is almost 40 minutes away which is plenty of time for Redbull cars to create the gap with the other teams.

Oh damn me, I forgot about these picks. No EB or pole position points for me, so I hope to make up for those lost points. Funny thing is I actually had them entered already, but failed to click save before I closed the window.

Pretty dumb way to miss out on given points, especially on Max's home turf, huh!

I am dumb sometimes...

As of the practice sessions tomorrow Formula 1 is returning from the break officially. Don't forget to make your predictions after a long break like this. It would be much more difficult to make up for a lost race week from now on as we have left the half of the season behind. I'm not happy with my current place at all and I want to finish the season in top 5.

Nothing has changed,people should capitalize on the 2 EBP points and a sure Pole Position most likely for Max Verstappen as it already happened,especially this was more likely in his home turf in front of the home fans.Then put the top 5 teams in the scoring points which are as right now in my opinion Redbull,McLaren,Mercedes,Ferrari and Aston Martin,I by the way forgot to put the drivers like this order so most likely I will be losing some points in this race,of course I am not going to change anything and lose the precious EBP points.

The rain most probably will be present in this race which should make it a bit more chaotic and more interesting.

Instead of Norris I put Hamilton to podium in the last 10 minutes. However he couldn't even qualify for Q3. If there isn't a big miracle we won't be able to see Hamilton on podium tomorrow. As long as Verstappen doesn't have any technical issues it doesn't seem possible for anyone to overtake him. I don't remember this kind of a domination for a long time.

Pole again for MAX with more than half of a second in such a short track.

If tomorrow will not rain and he will push he will give 1 lap to everyone.

Keep in mind that during the long break, teams are not allowed to work on their car.

This mean we should be at the same point of the last races, with RBR dominating during races and a closer Mclearen on qualify.
