2017 FORMULA 1 AZERBAIJAN GRAND PRIX Baku

[R154]

I am pretty excited to see what's coming in this race.

#44 for the win as always.

I am most excited to see whether Stroll can keep a bit of momentum in his drive and finish +3P or more from his start. I was excited to see him passing aggressively in Canada.

I don't have high hopes for young Max in this session. He seems to be becoming more reckless and less calculating. With that said I expect him to compete as hard as he possibly can. Maybe a good quali will set him free?

I genuinely want to see Max battling with Ham/Seb. I am praying for one wet race. So badly I want to see him drive the tits off that redbull in the rain.

I don't particularly love this track. However, the scenery is nice?

RACE FANS UNITE.

BEAT IT TONYTIGER

Let's see this new Honda iteration they're bringing out.

It's technically and ironically the European Grand Prix since everyone thinks of Azerbaijan when they think of Europe.

Hated the race and the track last year as the long straight proved to be a dud for passing. Probably the same snoozefest this year. It's one of the tracks I'd rather not have on the 2018 Calendar as opposed to China or Singapore being dropped; hopefully they can ink deals.

Honda engine update isn't the update promised for the last race. Just a partial update.

Let's hope the racing is a little more exciting this time around. I really love the scenery here.

How the hell does F1 go from Canada to Azerbaijan...? I hope the mechanics have airmiles..

I predict the the angry goomba to finish 3rd. Sorry R154, I think the Ferraris have the edge. I think the Mercedes are more like a constipated farts right now. You get the odd whiff of win now and again, but its a struggle to get it out. The Ferrari's will have a advantage in turns 8 -12.
One McLaren will finish, the other will blow up or give up. I hope its Alonso. I like the guy, buts its so comical when it happens to him.

Im actually surprised its the European GP.. Me feels its more Eurasian..

[R154]

I refuse to call it a "European" GP.

I think Mercedes is just a little shell shocked by how fast the Ferrari has actually become. They are working... they will come back stronger for the 1/2 way marker.

I really hope a McLaren finishes. However, between an Alonso engine failure, and a stoffle being stoffle failure, I dont have high hopes. Long WOT = death for honda engines. Period.

More than anything, I want to see Max kamikaze Seb.

Many Thanks,

Cheering for #44 but totally agree with this. Especially Lewis's showing last year.
Would be happy to be proven wrong.

Yup Lewis in 10th for FP1. Max 1st! McLaren speed trap at 182.6 vs Mercedes at 209.4

Numbers are meaningless without context. I'm talking about Lewis 10th. McLaren speed trap? That's fucking legit.

[npham]

This race is going to have so many SC's. Everyone is bailing and hitting barriers in FP1/2. Palmer is going to be fired soon, can't keep doing fuck all and crashing the car.

[That.Guy.S30]

[jacky4566]

Well. Well. Well.

Just a great quali.

And fuck all of you about stroll. Something is happening to the Canadian!!!!

[tonytiger55]

Holy crap.. The angry Goomba qualified first. Mercedes upping the laxatives.. Was not expecting that..
I wonder how Vettle's race pace will be...

The mid pack looks really interesting..

[R154]

I hope Max just piles into the back of him at lights out. Really hoping rakki holds his place. I want to see bottas battle with Lewis. But he is to much of a team player.

[rage2]

Damn Finns haha
