Lewis looking absolutely fucked coming out of the car there.

Bono my spine.
Finally gets over covid and then the car gives him sciatica.
He’s surely been told to ham it up too given they’re looking the regs changed to even things up for them.
Imagine the seethe from Horner when FIA mandate a standardised ride height.
He was literally complaining about a cold arse.
You could get rid of it with setup so it's their choice to run it like that.
Regs are set until 2026 I believe. Not a chance there.
di Resta was suggesting during the race that the FIA might issue a demand for teams to fix the porpoising as a driver safety issue.
It's solvable, the teams are just choosing not to as it compromises pace.
What sort of a stupid name is Pato O’Ward?
A mostly Mexican, slight Irish and brought up in the good ol' US of A type of name.
Vettel’s spinning recovery makes for a beautiful gif
Apparently Spa might not be on the calendar next year. Lol at that
The Americans really couldn’t give a fuck about good circuits and tradition. No doubt another street circuit in some questionable state will step in.
Anyway, I see the noise from drivers about porpoising is really heating up today. I am firmly in the camp that says the FIA shouldn’t do anything because the teams can easily fix it but Horner is already bleating so let’s fucking do this. I’d be happy for the FIA to relinquish whatever credibility it has left to send that cunt over the edge.
Kyalami might be back next year.
Sounds like Piastri in and Latifi out at Williams is all but confirmed for 2023. Latifi is expected to see out the rest of this season as of now, though.
They'll need time to find a new sponsor to replace Sofina. The Latifi's bring a lot of money into that team.
EDIT: Ah, it looks like Williams are going ahead with the switch to Renault engines next year. That will explain them not needing a pay driver.

Merc have proper fucked themselves. They've repeatedly called for FIA to do something about porpoising expecting them to standardise ride height or something but instead they've said they're just going to measure vertical movement, essentially forcing Mercedes into making their car shitter, and the smoother cars like the ominous Bull can just proceed as they are.
Only way to do it, this must be the one time a year Christian Horner is right.
I don't know what else Mercedes were expecting, really. Unlike them to do something so uncalculated.
It's like when cricket captains try to get the ball changed. Indiscriminate bleating because people with the kind of mentality you need to get to the top of sport/business are unable to process failure.
Perhaps they knew they would have to raise the ride height anyway and this might mean other people have to as well, classic crab bucket tactics. Or they thought it would be a ride height mandate rather than this.
This is all fine until Mercedes raise their ride height and the floor starts creating lift on the Mulsan... I mean, Monza.
Maybe that's how the new regs were meant to encourage (literal) overtaking.
Looking a bit moist here.
I do love a wet qualifying.
Well, Aston Martin’s earlier promise didn’t last. Lol.
Can’t believe Latifi managed to stay on the track
Shame that wasn’t Verstappen.
Oh well Checo, there's always next year.
Verstappen pole for sure.
The wet stuff does sort the men from the boys.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he wins 75% of the next races. Hopefully a kiss of death.
This is all well and good until someone(Mick) tries to go on softs as a gamble and bins it, ruining everyones lap.
Russell softs
Tomorrow's dry so I can't believe this shook up grid will stick.
Alonso
Tomorrow might be chaotic at the start with Mick chilling in 5th. He’ll be confused being that far up.
Alonso's going to be a pain for everyone behind him. Look how much trouble people had passing him in Baku.
Verstappen to lap everybody.
Ted’s Notebook should really be an hour long. I could watch him or Brundle walk about and be unscripted all day every day.
Come on Nando, stick the Dutch knobhead into a hedge.
Hamilton can’t even get close to Alonso.
Now make Max’s engine pop off too
Red Bull power units.
Cert Verstappens goes now too. You rarely see one without the other these days.
Mick
Poor bastard
“Hamilton’s complaining about…..” could be a new drinking game.
Looks like they’ve made Leclerc’s Car worse.
Sainz slowly getting my hopes up with him clawing back Verstappen but the latter is probably managing his tyres
Ferrari
They’re a shambles

Ferrari really gambling on another safety car? That seems a very odd way of potentially losing to Hamilton as well as Verstappen.
Lucky bastards.
Come on Carlos
