F1 2025 - Previous Rounds

[King Of Money]

I'll be watching from the Lando Stand.

Regardless of the weather, you'll need to wear a poncho.

 

[Forward Press]

I mean, it comes with the position. Wouldn't blame him but he's the best driver in the world and there's huge rumours he's defecting.

Sorry Max, suck it up. Or hurry up and announce what you're doing and then they'll back off a bit.

Of course, but from all reports Max is one of those that detests the F1 circus and would rather be at home on iRacing than actual racing. I do like the image though, gives Renaissance style vibes.

The blow on Stowe will be bigger than Monaco.

 

[Bradesmaen]

I'm not made of money unfortunately but eventually the British GP (along with Monaco, Spa and Singapore) are the four overseas GPs I'd love to attend for a race weekend.

Done two of those. Ironically I lived in the UK for 2 years but never went to Silverstone. Might go one year now living in Dublin, same with Monaco as it's close.

 

[Festerz]

Channel 4 is showing all the sessions of the British GP live this weekend.

So Karun and the rest of the annoying cheerleaders on Sky can FRO (Edit: yes there are British commentators on Ch 4 but they are more focussed on the track action than cheerleading.

As soon as the footy finishes the VPN is switching on in the Festy household.

 

[Crimson Azure]

I am highly confident that a driver in a car will come off victorious.

The height difference in the commentary box between Crofty, Jensen, and Anthony Davidson is hilarious.

 

[Crimson Azure]

They must be zero public transport to Silverstone as there seems to be thousands of cars everywhere in the fields around the track.

lol, I just noticed Naomi Schiff is wearing flat shoes too. My first thought was due to her being taller than everyone but Jensen if she had a heel.

Fun fact.

Get them to lie on their backs and Croft is still a metre taller.

She's got something else going on rn.

Weird observation, the weather in the UK must be completely sweltering if the colour of the grass is anything to go by. I'm used to verdant meadows but there's a lot of dead stuff out there to maybe catch alight like it has done in other rounds this year.

Anthony Davidson copped an on-air zinger from Nat last week about his (lack of) height.
AD didn't appreciate it.

LOL, imagine a fire in the field of cars.

 

[jb04]

Now they're dunking on AD saying 'shiny' in an odd way.

They also gave him stick at the top of the broadcast for not having accommodation on track and going home in the evenings.

I'm here for this.

It's out in the middle of nowhere. There are probably park and rides in place. Nearest train line is 14km away in Wolverton.

LOL, I’ve been watching F1 for over 30 years and never noticed or thought about where Silverstone is.

When I saw the wide pan shot before practice started, I thought, it’s in the middle of nowhere. Usually just skip through practice to the driving these days and we never used to get this stuff in the old free to air days.

Yeah because it's an old RAF airfield it wasn't near anything important. Plus the Beeching cuts in the 60s got rid of the closest railway station.

 

[largebus]

Pretty much every UK racetrack is an old RAF base.

Yeah, I think I remember the RAF base, but just never connected it with being in the middle of nowhere. Sort of like the old Laverton RAF base in Melbourne which was right next to a train station.

Yeah, big open space and already installed tarmac. Only few I can think of that aren't are Donnington, Brands Hatch and maybe Oulton Park - mainly because they aren't flat tracks.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Prancing horses setting the pace here. Interesting

Think Waverley Park

 

[King Of Money]

Both Racing Bulls giving both Red Bulls a bath so far.

Edit: 10 minutes later VER jumps to 5th.

Circa 1970 I’d imagine.

Wouldn't read too much into FP results.

But for the amusement, would love to see Lando out-qualifying Oscar just to see the board melts.
