mod-edit: let's leave the politics out as per our Terms of Service

I really hate people who mix politics and sports. F1 is just a sport for us spectators and for F1 drivers.

So this Istanbul track is the of the best F1 track I know, even without slip, a really fast and challenging track. This track was a part of Presto GP F1 league 2010 I joined after the test race, I proved my simracing driving skills on this particular Istanbul track in December 2009, before that I was just a very well known pioneer track creator (Keni1 aka Keni9900026).

So this track changed my life, not so dramatically but then I first time noticed that I'm a pretty fast F1 driver and I can race with F1 car immediately without crashing and my speed also was good enough against much more experienced guys

Good memories...

F1s new Real Road feature seems off to me. Cars spin way too much, not sure, this is, how it works in real li.......oh.....

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

I totally love how postponing racing for four months has forced cold tracks, low sun, little grip on many many events as the seasons draw to a close everywhere. i never realized that of course all events are set so that hopefully there are ideal conditions when the lights go out at start. prime example: gt3 practice as the morning fog lifts at paul ricard and the combination of drying track and still wet curbs brings out a red flag first lap!

on a more pessimistic sidenote: organizers of the sweden rally have aparently moved the whole show up north for next year, because the usual location does not guarantee a snowy event anymore due to climate change. oh dear.

 

[Mitja Bonca]

Awesome P3 today in wet. I hope that Q will have same conditions.
I`m sure LH will not be in the 1st row

 

[Anbear]

Can anyone think of 'some kind of low grip surface covering that could be sprayed onto a track' ??
anyone

Nope.Cant think of anything. I'll go fill the kettle with water and have a cuppa.
I'm sure I can come up with something that can be 'developed'....

That was one hilarious / frustrating discussion to listen to, I mean, they came soo close to saying it.

 

[paracletus]

There's a drop of rain out there, which usually means a one-horse race unless MV has something to say about it.

 

[Fat-Alfie]

What, like crashing on the warm-up lap?

 

[GeForce06]

really like how they are crying because of some rain and less grip........always thought they are there because they are the best drivers?

it's because there's new asphalt, and no grip, even in the dry. It's impossible to drive like that

 

[BrainsBush]

What a Q1. Fun to see some rain masters (or better said ice masters) on this track.

 

[Appie Kuipers]

LETS ROCK MAX

 

[BrainsBush]

Ouch probably all lap times will be investigated --> KMag board radio: all drivers improve under full course yellow*
*Except Max. He set a valid lap only when Sector one was yellow which was already behind him.

And up to Q2

 

[Appie Kuipers]

Now it’s to the driver, not the mercs

 

[Rusty911]

Verstappen gives the top ten a masterclass raindriving in Q2. Mercedes drivers at +3.5 and +3.6 secs.

 

[Charlie Lockwood]

Verstappen's wet pace is just unbelievable... he's almost making Hamilton look ordinary today.

 

[paracletus]

.. And now Perez, the man out of F1 schools them all.
Oh hang on, Stroll is the best driver of F1 now.
Crazy stuff today.

 

[BrainsBush]

What a qualification show. Stroll did it!

 

[muzikant]

Haha Stroll wow.. after the Villeneuve dynasy , where is Lewis and the Merc boys

 

[Appie Kuipers]

Wow Stroll, nice for him. Merc 6 and 9
