F1 2025 Dude Where’s My osCar

Another Verstappen win.
Norris was reeling him in but ran out of laps to get the job done.
A much better race than that snorefest in Monaco a couple of rounds back.

Reading that things are looking up for Jack Doohan getting the second Alpine seat for 2025

Indeed. While Verstappen is still ahead of the field, he’s gettable if those other teams/drivers are that the very top of their game. Impressive driving by Lando, he’s at least going to give second position in the drivers championship a genuine crack.

I enjoyed the Spanish GP a lot.

Would have been interesting had Norris pitted earlier on his first stint and his second pitstop not been 3.6 seconds. Good race, slightly formulaic but that can be Barcelona at times.

Lando definitely has the better car. Red Bull limit and penalties on win tunnel use is having an impact.

Lando will win a few races but hopefully Verstappen still wins the title.

I imagine Lawson will get the gig over Dan next year. The stuff about this year is just speculation at this point based on what is expected to happen next year.

Lawson will be lucky to get a seat.

Marko disagrees

Speaking to Austrian publication Kleine Zeitung, Marko said the desire is to have Lawson.

“The shareholders have made it clear that it is a junior team and we have to act accordingly,” he said.

“The goal was that [Ricciardo] would be considered for Red Bull Racing with exceptional performances. That seat now belongs to Sergio Perez, so that plan is no longer valid.

“We will have to put a young driver in there soon. That would be Liam Lawson.”

Sorry l was thinking Sargent.

Lance has contract for beyond 2025.

Daddy does good for him.

So we are quoting renowned F1 media outlet The Nightly, and going with Lando Stroll contract extensions?

We are getting into “I saw it on Tiktok” territory here

this is what you get when you let bullwinkle post links with impunity .

My bad. Lance Stroll not Lando.

Piastri P2 after FP1.

Sprint Quali up next.

What do people think of this circuit? The reason I ask is, on paper is looks fairly plain and simple. I know the original track was modified a while back ; 90s?

OP P3 SQ.
