F1 Official Thread - Grand Prix of Britain

[Sinner]

Find it harder to read. I would prefer a bolder font. Plus the lack of the team colors makes it more difficult for me to identify a driver.

And why is the sector timing/coloring just a tiny line?

I agree that some of the fonts should be bigger, as well as the sector lines... but some of the names and numbers on the bottom of the screen look bigger and sleeker. I also like the timing tower has the full team-logo instead of partials last year. The team logos could have a bit more color for some teams.

No one should make a judgement about a person/character based on DTS. They make stuff up and create their own storyline/narrative.
Just look at the lies about the relationship between Lando and Carlos...

EXACTLY this. And that's the problem for a lot of the new fans who are watching cuz of DTS. Netflix like to paint their own narratives on these 'characters' of the show. I've had someone tell me they didn't like so-and-so cuz of how he was on the show... which is entirely unfair. Another problem which arises is that ppl become more fanatic about these characters rather than the actual sporting side... the actual racing.

Fair.. but have you seen George Russell's interviews outside of DTS?

Still an arrogant entitled jerk.

DTS just made it even worse. possibly one of the few personalities accurately portrayed on the show.

I wasnt a fan of the sector thickness. I liked the previous. Other than that I like the overall updates to the graphics. They are a bit harder to read due to the font boldness. But also my 20/20 has become 20/40 for further sight as I just learned on Monday.

Williams and Mclaren sharing the bottom this season? JK

I'm happy Haas in the mix, Mag and Mick. Sunday should be fun

Yes, I watched a lot of him, Lando, Alex and Charles on their streams, seen other various interviews and I didn't get that vibe from him.
Sure, you can call him arrogant... but that's pretty much the attitude of the entire F1 field... pretty much a lot of pro athletes for that matter. It's the attitude they have to have out there... and that if they're in good machinery, they can be the best of the best, that they belong there.
Personally, I don't see George anymore arrogant than, say, Charles or Lando or Lance. If anything, hearing his team radio at Hungary last season showed a lot of maturity as a team player.

Mercedes have suddenly found their pace, what a surprise

 

[Sinner]

I'm absolutely shocked.

 

[kobeoverbron]

Lewis struggling but they seem to have less bounce.

Ready for quali

Both are fools! Lewis was inspired by Senna, while Lando was inspired by Rossi!

Meanwhile, it appeared certain #TeamLH fans took offense to that and started taking shots at Lando.
It was a joke, it was banter... Lewis got the joke and had a good comeback! These kids...

 

[Bantz Lord T]

All of the Ferrari powered teams look good out there

 

[zeroregret]

Bottas putting in decent times. Nice to see Albon made it out of Q1.

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Bottas putting in decent times.

He beat both Mercs! I’m sure that feels great

 

[kobeoverbron]

Bottas beat Lewis

DannyRic way off today, glimpses of last season.

Haas boys!

Aston… imagine Seb’s reaction at home

I hope Seb finds a competitive team next year

I hope Seb finds a competitive team next year

I fear that he will retire, if the cars stays uncompetetive

 

[zeroregret]

Mclaren not looking good so far. I understand that Daniel hasn't gotten much time in the car but expected Lando to get through. I'm guessing they have some issues with the car.

 

[jewelknows]

Top 3 and middle pack will be fun this season

Mclaren not looking good so far. I understand that Daniel hasn't gotten much time in the car but expected Lando to get through. I'm guessing they have some issues with the car.

Car hasn't been good all weekend so far. Just a general lack of grip. Lando didn't sound too surprised, so this was probably all they had.

 

[kanyeezy411]

Man why are they always showing purple sector’s, when it’s not true…

 

[denni5themenace]

the mercs and their customer teams just dont have it this weekend

 

[VinMillerHearn58]

Those Ferraris are quick

 

[kanyeezy411]

Went like expected. Ferrari and RB in their own league.
My prediction was Lewis at P5 (everything above would have been a bonus). Lots of work to unleash the potential of the Mercedes.

Super impressed by Magnussen! Bottas did great as well
