2024 Bahrain Grand Prix - [RACE] discussion thread
FORMULA 1 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX 2024
Only took 18 laps for a "we are checking"
Yuki with the sass.
I like it, they screwed him
This is Yuki showing he is still immature. He wasn't going to get that pass done and only ended up making Daniel miss his window (being on softs / having Max lap them). Yuki pulls a large market and has matured some, shenanigans like this put a real negative view on an otherwise positive race.
Bottas and botched tyre nuts....name a better combo
10 laps, 8 seconds in front and not even trying.
Can we just give Max the title, let him take the year off and have a new competition for "second is the first winner"
I like Max as a person, but having another season of him racing in a league of his own is too much.
I wish Red Bull would just unleash Max instead of just telling him to build a ~15 sec gap and then drive to a delta. If we can't have competition at the front, at least let us watch Max lap the entire field.
If Red Bull do that, then F1 will start bringing a whole raft of rule changes mid season to try an screw over Red Bull and make them slower
(I mean they tried to do that last year with the floor rulings, but Red Bull ended up getting even better)
Leclerc really struggling out there. Brutal.
Max's so ahead he'll reach Saudi Arabia for the next race by the end of this one.
Max has his own calendar. Abu Dhabi in May.
Carlos gunning for Lewis’ seat next year.
Or Perez's
Riveting stuff. Excited there's 23 more races of this. /s
THE ENGINEER SAID IT!
HE SAID THE FUNNY
Wait what did I miss?
They are checking
Sainz has REALLY been performing and showing what he can do!
Yuki getting the Ferrari treatment
Max with another grand slam
Max is 15 second up the road. I was hoping for a better year with some actual racing involved.
Ah well. Guess I’ll try again in 2026 with the rule changes.
Seems like it will be the same as last year
Boy that sauber is.. green.. very green...
at least it stands out from all the blues and, well, blues
Lpine
Interesting to put Checo on the softs.
No hards available.
Brutal pitstop for Bottas. He's always the unlucky one.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Really looks like most people underestimated Red Bulls pace advantage, if anything.
Why aren't we seeing pit stop times?
Alex have you tried restarting it?
Lawrence Barretto's prediction on Hamilton seems to be spot on atm.
What was his prediction again?
I am not 100% sure but I thought 8th this race and Hamilton gave him a “hard time” about it during the drivers parade.
The Ferraris... My poor heart!
Nothing new.....atleast we haven't seen any strategy fuckups yet
Yuki doesn't seem quite happy to be asked to swap
I wonder how the relationship between Daniel and Yuki will play out this year?
I'd expect some fireworks - my guess is neither Yuki nor Daniel is there next year (one up / one out)
Honestly same. I was really expecting more from Daniel on that final stint. If the season continues similar to this, I expect a lot more frustration from Tsunoda
This is suddenly becoming a race of reliability.
Nice move from Carlos.
Mom, Max is at it again
Good luck!
Yuki is pissed lmao
Holy shit Sainz what a move
Fucking race director at the end.
Poor Bottas
I've never watched a pre-race show before.
Can't wait to get started!!!
Let's go Checo!!
GG everybody
Did F1 run out of contract with AWS to show us timings and stats or what? Or is AWS fucking shit up themselves as usual?
Did F1 run out of contract with AWS
They mentioned AWS, why would they do that if that wasn't about AWS sponsoring that? I did see a prediction of one car overtaking another. It was completely inaccurate.
Maxito, Don't play with your food
Is Zak getting paid by Sky or something? They always talk to him.
They usually have several of the TPs and team personnel give commentary each race. They rotate week to week.
Seems nothing like that,they also talk to James(Williams TP) sometimes and they did so last year in some races.
Checo looking good on those hard tires.
Great drive by Sainz.
When they finally showed Max just now, I thought it was because he had a problem lol
Will Buxton just said Checo is ‘Keen as mustard’ and it caught me off guard. Never heard that one before lol.
First half of the lap feels a lot like last year lol.
Why no more action zone in the intro?
Well I do hope the others can catch up this year...
Tuned in a bit late, was there any prime Brundle cringe during the grid walk?
He interviewed Jeremy Clarkson, who looked rather tipsy.
His voice sounded so different.
Is it me, or is that RBR front wing not flexing at all?
Another yawner. Max just walked away.
