#F1 #BahrainGP
Hulk performed as an absoulute monster
props to Sargeant too
@Simon Wochner how many poles did Schumacher get last year?
@Vojta Jarema Williams 2023 looked like they are marginally above McLaren.
@Rob Law what was the last championship he won? Now compare to the other drivers. It’s hard to talk to fanboys.
i have high hopes for some really great racing this season!!
Twelve months ago, Aston Martin was fighting Williams for last place in Bahrain. Twelve months later, they’re fighting Mercedes and Ferrari, this has to be the biggest turnaround I’ve seen in modern F1.
@Hieu Luu AMRF1 23 is like Brawn 2.5.
I was thinking the same but, let’s see after the main race. Happy to see them on top.
Well in practice their race pace doesn’t seem that close to RB though.
@jdneverdies finding loopholes is what they are all trying to do. That’s not illegal.
Red bull invisible are they, I am a merc fan before people start getting uppity.
can we just appreciate the fact that the whole field was 1.1 seconds apart in q1 WOW
Nah redbull are easily the best boring
even if they wernt its still nice to see these cars so close
Don’t think RB was fully pushing though
And that’s big gap in race
@Moustafa Ahmed latifi was usually 1.1 seconds away from making it out of q1 💀💀
If Aston keep up the momentum of the car’s developement as they did last year then this might be Fernando’s biggest masterclass move.
@Dasni REDEMPTION TIME!
Redemption after mclaren
El Plan is in full effect!
they have the next upgrade pretty much ready, or that’s what i read that eric blandin said (they were working on them for like 2 months)
Anyone else impressed with Stroll even with his accident? He’s using the pace well clearly. And Sargeant was a beast especially for a Williams rookie
@The sAAAm Show Finding a use for an incessant tongue merely to be carping. Little people need to belittle. Otherwise it reveals their own failures when they are unable to find their favourite body part.
@The sAAAm Show Yeah it is, he’s a F2 champion and current FE World Champion.
He was one of the unluckiest drivers to have joined in a moment where McLaren wasn’t just slow and unreliable but were doing everything to please Fernando.
Saying he’s bad does first of all not take his accomplishments into consideration nor does it take into account the bad luck he’s had on his side.
@The sAAAm Show It’s like pay drivers are a new concept to you? Skill & Money got a lot of drivers to where they are today. The 80’s, 90’s and early 2000’s would’ve blown your mind with the amount of pay drivers that stacked the grid, lol.
@Brandon Lagaert // KAIHO hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha serious question?
@The sAAAm Show What do you mean? Are you saying Stoffel’s a bad driver?
Yuki did so well pulling that car into P8 for Q1.
Unlucky he had no fresh softs left, could’ve been an even better time.
Hulk was an absolute monster! Williams looking better than expected too. Was fun to watch
@Adam Wolf if you think that formula 1 is boring, why are you watching a formula 1 video?
@an human For who is the slowest
@Adam Wolf Gee, I wonder why? Could it be that all teams develop their own cars, so one team has a better car than the rest based on engineering??!!!
@Adam Wolf well redbull is just building lots of cars while relatively spending the same money as everyone else, while the merc dominance was because they spend much more then anyone, I think the dominance shown by redbull is just everyone failing to make their investment work
@Adam Wolf then maybe F1 isn’t simply for you, stop watching
Sargent n Hulk looked impressive. Alonso N Checo trying for pole was refreshing. Stroll’s effort n build up to the qualy was amazing. Meanwhile in middle of all these two frenchmen fighting n Ocon outscoring Gasly another battle to watch out for entire season.
Bro, just type out ‘and’…
Alonso was more than 6 ten’s off of pole, that’s a big gap.
I suspect Esteban will destroy his teammate on track and end his career instead of racing to score points
It’ll be interesting to see how the race pace fares for the top 4 teams.
@thebandit1974 okay whatever you say
@Twevyy at this circuit, for this race they will be on their own.
@Brandon Lagaert // KAIHO I think this season is only going to be interesting for who comes third unfortunately.
@thebandit1974 That could make it interesting as well actually, they pull a gap in the beginning and then start falling back would result in battles past the halfway point.
This season could become real interesting with AM in the mix.
@thebandit1974 that may be the case, but I wouldn’t say something along those lines it’s literally the first race of the season. Sure they look strong but to say a race of their own? That’s a bit of a reach
I’m getting 2012 vibes from Alonso this year. Once again RB seems to be the best, and AM is the underdog. I wonder what magic Alonso can provide this year
Haas did the same last year as am doubt it’ll hold
stroll definitely improving as well
@Richard Golya Ferrari and Mercedes were struggling throughout qualifying and the practice sessions. They just put in perfect laps at the end.
You can see Alonso’s lap was very scruffy, missing apexes, messy exit. And he still beats the Mercs and is close to Leclerc
The only one to match or outdrive Alonso is Máx… the others maybe in qualy… but really far from him in race and tyre management. Alonso, maybe not in qualy but in race is a beast
@paper plane How? LOL. Ferrari is better, Mercedes is on pair with Aston. And Alonso overtook both Mercs with a not perfect lap
