Honestly, slightly surprised Yuki getting another shot. He was sensational in his debut and has shown signs of good speed, but the consistency isn't there. Plus, the first race was at Bahrain where overtaking was possible. Made him look better than had his first race been at Australia where overtaking is much harder. Anywho, good for him and hope he continues to take adv of the situation.

100% agree with you!
Tsunoda is only staying because Honda insisted. In return, Red Bull is being supported in the transition phase to becoming an independent engine manufacturer. Otherwise Tsuonda would be gone.

I'm surprised Nicky hasn't been confirmed yet.

Albonooooooooooo!!!

 

[zeroregret]

So it seems that Albon was released from RB but he has the option to go back if all parties agree to it in the future. That's interesting...

Now this is fascinating.

Mark Hughes: Albon deal hints at Mercedes/Red Bull F1 power shift - The Race

It seems like a routine F1 contract, but what if Alex Albon's 2022 deal is the first step towards a bigger Williams/Red Bull link-up?

Guanyu Zhou brings sponsorship money so I can see why they would give him priority. Guess no seat for Nyck De Vries.

 

[Sinner]

If he's able to win the F2 title, then at least that adds to his 'cred'.

Merc looking good in qualifying so far. Mclaren is looking pretty quick as well.

Nice to see Gio in Q3, I know it probably won't hold for the sprint + race but it'd be nice to see him do well if this is his last home race. Gonna miss his luscious locks and spectacular helmets

 

[zeroregret]

Bottas on pole. Feels like it has been a while since Merc locked out the front row

 

[zeroregret]

Danny Ric looked good as well. Also matching Lando. I hope things only improve from here.

Still not used to this format. I even forgot there were points to be had tomorrow.

Mclaren so close to taking the 2nd row. I don't think they will be able to pass Max if it stays as is after the first corner. It will probably be a DRS train but good job by them.

Lewis not taking advantage of the tow like others cost him.

Good lap by Max to edge out the Mclarens but man did they sacrifice Perez

 

[Sinner]

I should be happy with P4/P5... but I was hoping for Row 2...

Anywho... so close. But like Ted said, Valtteri's gonna tow Lewis around and then let him win on the final lap.

The Mercs seem to have the upper hand at Monza

It will be back to the regular scheduled program after this race.

Which is why Mercedes needs to capitalise.
