@detmer87 Says:
All wrong
@milk3013 Says:
well this aged well
@CT37BN Says:
Max, Sergio, Fernando, Sir Lewis, George are top drivers to pick in rain conditions.
@timoschwegler9023 Says:
Gonna watch it live
@Xdpitt Says:
I needed this
@xxczerxx Says:
The thing that's so painful about rain cancellations is that a rain race is SO good
@bjornjochems Says:
A question, if the qualy dries up and you could use a dry weather tire. Do you need to use the tire for that session? Because you want to use a dry tire as soon as it gets dry enough, but you do not want to use the hard, you want to use the soft preferably.
@carisi2k11 Says:
Should have went to Imola after Baku before going to Miami
@Franky46Boy Says:
If there is not a build up of the facilities for the race, there will not be a race...
We'll see.
@OldManOnTrak Says:
15:20 - Why this desire to encourage 2 pitstops rather than one? Would 3 stops be even better? What about 4? More pitstops just encourages LESS actual racing and more focus on pitstop strategy. Personally, I would much rather teams have the option of no stops at all but they have the ability to overtake others on track.
19:00 - If F1 persists with the cringe-worthy "driver introductions", I'm not going to tune in until just before race start. It's becoming farcical.
@imrustyokay Says:
Remember Seb's "First Underwater GP 2060" shirt? I think he may have been 37 years too early...
On a serious note tho, hope everybody in Imola and all of Northern Italy are safe from the flooding up there.
@grahamroden8897 Says:
Redbull 1+2, more politics and just a continuation of an exceptionally dull season unless you ignore the guys in p1&2.
@101Altaaf Says:
But if your car upgrades are good in the wet… 😎
@billeib427 Says:
In 10 years or less - John Malone of Liberty Media will sell F1 to Disney. Then say Bye-Bye to Motor Sport F1. America is the kiss of death in the 21st century. Milk F-1to death. Light turn out for FP on Friday in Miami. Can't use BS to make motor sport fans. Sunday was a sell out for the race. The headliner day. So, create some fake racing for Friday and Saturday to draw the "Drive to Survive" crowd, Yikes. Path to failure. Don't get sucked in by the USA. Take it from a Yank.
@mixmaster1079 Says:
For me a big talking point is the way the race times have been pushed back so late, It leaves little time to delay things in off chance weather can improve. They have learnt nothing from sepang and spa.
@cameron5543 Says:
I watched this while taking a shit and I flooded the toilet
@andrewfigaroa7031 Says:
1. Max , 2. Checo, 3. Alonso Leclerc crashes , Mercedes are slower thanks to their new upgrades...
@Osprey6m Says:
It has nothing to do with the zero sidepods. It is dissappointing to hear lazy pundits spread misinformation.
@OMGz1122 Says:
If i was Charles Leclerc, I would drink a Cortado and chill for the time being
@andrewstorm8240 Says:
Like watching 3 brothers talking
@randar1969 Says:
Could be intresting. Yes we know from Brazil 2016 that Max is good in the rain let's see if he still has those balls of steel. On the other hand if it rains due to grip issues engine power is not an important factor as much anymore. Nobody can take corners on full speed in the rain so it levels the playfield a bit. Looking forward to a wet race and to see if teams who don't have the engine power can score some good points. I mean teams like Alpha Tauri/McLaren.
@fsconsultantcy2559 Says:
races are too short , been watching indy always 2 or 3 stop only two compounds much more exiting
@stavrosk.2868 Says:
I'm a Max fan but I hope Alonso will take the opportunity to win in a rain race.
@marcossonicracer Says:
dude, according to one source, the F1 staff is being EVACUATED from the circuit. no staff=no race. WTF... and if still they decide to race, Italy is supplied from CGT energie, who said that they would already cut power to monaco in that GP weekend. who is to say that they just won't pull the plug also?!
@kingblue22_efc80 Says:
Might get cancelled because rain😢
@Jadhav687 Says:
Race will be canceled
@craigcharlesworth1538 Says:
"FIA knows what its doing".
Were you WATCHING Spa 2021?
@Nick-vu2bz Says:
Roberto is great!
@j1jem Says:
Out of curiosity, was this video recorded before or after the teams were cleared out of the paddock due to the flood risk? The Santerno is looking pretty full with 24hrs of rain still forecast!
@alessandraderango2766 Says:
Roberto 🔝🔝🔝🙂🙃😉
@Pedro285 Says:
Get real .. so many YT channels hyping up the upgrades for this weekend for Merc. Not hearing much noise from RB other than they expect others to catch up later in the season.
@TundeEszlari Says:
Great video.
@SylvainDuford Says:
Are you guys three brothers?
@mitchdaytonam3 Says:
“Max is not bad in the rain…” said with a wry smile. 😜
Haha, even he knows how much of an understatement that is.
@DenDave_ Says:
As long as we dont get another Spa 2021, i dont really care what they decide.
@markdance574 Says:
Iv been a big f1 fan from the age of 8 - now in comparison f1 is not the same sport it was - the racing isn’t the same and more over the drivers for the most part aren’t as good either as they once were - infact I now enjoy watching moto GP more .
