2019 Formula One German Grand Prix

[Ernie]

What a crazy race! It has topped even the very entertaining Silverstone race.

 

[Tume]

WHAT. A. RACE. Absolutely speechless.

Spoiler: I also feel sorry for Mercedes

Nah just kidding, love this refreshing change

 

[BP]

I'm so happy for him, he was somehow my driver of the day, an underdog coming out of nowhere also god damn it stroll
Gasly out! Torpedo in!

Kyvat drove a great race today, but I think I'd prefer Albon in the RB seat, he's really impressed me just a hair more than Kvyat this year.

Man what a race! As a Ferrari fan I feel bad for Bottas though.. And the orange army celebrating his crash leaves a bad taste in my mouth aswell. I don't understand how you can cheer that hard when a competitor goes off at that speed.

I watched the onboard cam and it looks that Gasly made a mistake. He had all the place to overtake and did it too short. I didnt see Albon moving on the right while the overtaking.

Respect to Vettel for this particular race.
And for Ferrari for not spoiling his race.
But also respect to a racing series which are not afraid for racing in rain.
Hehe to the contrary of racing series on the other side of the pond - where most races is aborted before there is even the slighest sign of rain.

While I agree on your point - they should not rush Alex into that Red Bull yet. On the other hand, I think that "performance" by Gasly was probably the final nail in the coffin for him...

i doubt it was only the orange army cheering, ofc he crashed right in front of them but from the camera at the 2nd straight pointing towards turn 1 you could see everyone getting up and cheering on the main straight as well. Even though we were in germany i think loads of people enjoyed seeing mercedes race going down the shitter

It was Alex.

4 out of the top 5 have come from the Red Bull junior program, they sure do know how to pick them. Also very happy for Stroll, managing another good run today shame he didn't get the podium but it's good to see him and the Racing Point guys back up able to maybe contend for best of the rest.

Bottas can't even pass him, huh?

Verstappen voted driver of the day rather than Kvyat or Vettel.
Whats even the point of that voting anymore? Getting flooded by the orange army anyway.

Just be happy that there is no "fan boost" like in Formula E...

Hahahaha. True that.

Actually, I like to see albon in that seat but as it stands the red bulls think they can take the fight to Ferrari in current season's constructor championship, imagine if gasly (55points) could have just half of Max's points(162), they could be higher than Ferrari now. and for continuing that trend, i think they will see kvyat as a better temporary seat filler because of his experience and his recent form.

Three races in a row we had a great race now! Who said F1 was dead? This race was crazy and must have had a record number of pitstops. In the beginning though Leclerc seemed to have the best strategy with 2 pitstops under a VSC, but Charles made a big mistake and crashed. Max drove fantastic and even with a bad start (according to Max there was no grip on that side of the circuit) and a 360, he deserved the win (as predicted ). And Vettel was also great , starting from 20th and finishing 2nd. And big congrats to Kvyat.. a podium and becoming a dad in one weekend!

Aww, this'll be the first time since France I'll have to watch the GP at home. I got spoilt by the fact that the two races this season I have been to (Austria and Britain) were the best two of the season by a country mile. Hopefully this isn't a curse on the rest of the season, and my presence was enough to coax F1 2019 into action!

Hockenheim is a great circuit, and the new layout is the best layout in the world right now for racing in any category. I think Austin is about the only other circuit on the F1 calendar that comes close to how much opportunity there is to overtake. The potential for cutbacks, multiple lines and battles lasting half a lap are absolutely massive at this layout.

If you think the old layout is better, just watch any Monza Grand Prix from 2001-2017 in the dry to see why low downforce configurations and a circuit made up of straights and chicanes creates crap races. Then watch Hockenheim 2008, 2012, 2014 and 2018 and see how overtaking happens everywhere and battles don't just stop happening after the hairpin. The old Hockenheim was only "good" because it was unique and the new one is perhaps the most underrated circuit in the world - because it gets so much hate despite being one of the best circuits for modern racing. Why do you think it's the home of the DTM?

You are so lucky man,happy for you,

At the Canadian Grand Prix, the Ferrari Tifosi Red Army does the exact same thing. I have seen it in person.

Isn’t it refreshing to see the Mercs struggling? They are humans after all...

the tifosi does this since i watch f1, its just how passionate people are all for their own team-driver .
