Be interesting to see how full it is. The last few years of racing there it was empty.

I don't mind the track, not a fan of the sharp corners that prevent overtaking. Turn 1/2 is great, final straight is great. should really change the turn onto the main straight into more of a flat out left so you can get a better run out and down the straight.

Nah... it was a sell out. They were all out the back, in the hospitality tents.

Oh, hang on, we're talking about F1 here, aren't we? Not Port's AFL games in Shanghai.

What are the F1 equivalent of bay covers ?

The final corner has been changed

Lewis will just drive straight through the gravel.

It is great to have Rosberg in commentary. He offers so much more than any of the others bar probably Jenson and Brundle.

How the hell does the grass on the side of the track catch fire? Never seen that before.

 

[Barrybran]

Track lighting up. Literally.

 

[dazbroncos]

Nico just made Karun look like an idiot.



and im here for it.

Totally lit him up.

14 mins remaining in P1....

Bono, muh track limits !

Pretty decent pace gap between the two Alpine's. It'll be interesting to see how much of a difference the upgrades really make come quali and the race.

Turn 5 has gone szechuan again in sprint quali

 

[gaskin]

Hahaha grass is on fire again.

Daniel outqualifying Yuki is great.

It was turn 7 earlier. Clearly the solution is to just burn all the grass

 

[gaskin]

A couple of people on Reddit have said China are notorious for using chemicals and painting the grass green to look better for tourists so I wonder if that has gone on here.

 

[Barrybran]

Both stakes in SQ3 is solid. Mercedes struggling.

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

That's awful luck with the rain for George, cost him 10th

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

No big updates for the Saubers this GP from what I saw, do they just really like this track somehow?

 

[gaskin]

George will probably still pass all these guys in front of him and finish in the points for the sprint.

Or do a Bottas in Hungary and crash out 5 cars

 

[Barrybran]

Nice driving Oscar

 

[gaskin]

Lol Lando.

 

[Barrybran]

I don't mind F1 in the wet

 

[gaskin]

That was an awesome session. For once nobody knew what the hell was going to happen. More wet more often please.
