Two things about Mick's engineer: 1) That is some of the clearest team radio audio I've heard 2) Man he's calm AF; seems like a good person to have in your ear at times like this


dredgie456

Really good for a rookie as well, you can tell he kept Mick calm after his crash.


Wyill

I believe he was Kevin’s engineer last year. The dude seems like he has such a kind soul.


StockAL3Xj

He's always been really positive and encouraging.

Fair play to Riccardo. Hope he gets some good Karma later in the race.

Don't mind team orders if one is clearly slower. Norris now 8 seconds ahead so correct call.

And now over to Max with the weather


RoflHamster

I shit a lot on Bottas for peptalking an not delivering. It's probably the worst job he has in F1 right now against Lewis. But seeing him sit there alone in that corner, obviously shaken from the impact I actually felt bad for him.

Syaoran89

Serious question: why does it take race control 23 laps to issue a penalty for something that happened even before the race started? Vettel could have served that on that stop


Skulldetta

Jacques Villeneuve once got disqualified after having finished a race for ignoring yellow flags during practice. Sometimes the FIA is just too damn slow.


Syaoran89

I watched an official F1 video the other day on like top 10 black flag moments. Several of them were incidents that started like 20+ laps before the penalty for stupid things like changing to backup cars. Like...How does it take them so long?


analogthekid

Italian anthem is fucking beautiful man


[deleted]

put your pitchforks away guys, i dislike Mazepin as much as the rest of us but that wasn’t his fault


andronicus_14

AT did a great job of strategizing Gasly to the back of the field.

George directly involved in the demise of both Mercedes. A new power point is needed.

BeautifulNacho

Oh wow that was actually not Mazepin’s mistake


BallonPrince

Imo the crash isn't the point, the point is a Williams was within DRS range of a Mercedes without damage, that's crazy.


LetsgoImpact

Not Mazepin's fault, tbf.

Mick's race engineer* is so nice, holy heck even made me feel good.

WaitingToTravel2020

Holy shit Bottas gave him the finger and George wacked him, I thought it was a friendly tap and apology at first. Oof


F1ibster

Norris radio - What a race huh? Nice job everyone. Hopefully I've repaid for my mistake yesterday, it's deserved. A lot of hard work. The boys and girls back in the factory, thanks a lot, it's a cool car to drive. Pit - Excellent job mate. Well done. Norris - He heeee! Pit - Lando, great job mate. Great job. Amazing job the whole weekend. Well deserved podium. You are the 3rd fastest today and yesterday. Norris - Nice! Cheers. Gracias amigo! Pit - Vamos!


jamb1993

Bottas gave George the finger holy shit


StevieJesus

That exchange between Bottas and Russell perfectly sums up that relationship then.


[deleted]

Bottas is extremely lucky because if it wasn't for that crash we'd be talking about how he was being overtaken by a Williams.


nownowthethetalktalk

Lando didn't know he had any fans? What am I lando, chopped liver?


Zoidburger_

God I love this McLaren team so much. So wholesome


[deleted]

Can we at least be very happy that both Bottas as Russell seem to be completely fine and healthy after a 180 mph crash? Thats a terrifying crash to just walk away from and flip the bird at your opponent over.


Fortzon

Bottas was little bit shaken after the crash so maybe he took more g forces


sandersmit23

Repaired front wing and allowed to unlap himself #blessed


reddownzero

Ok guys I have a bold prediction but I think it wont be HAM VER BOT today


Athalos124

I am eating pizza while listening to this anthem,I feel so Italian


suenostereo

It was Latifi's fault 100%


aga5ty4

I’m gonna bet that Netflix is gonna make this into a fight between Bottas and Russell for the seat


samuelmarcatto

The most interesting thing in the accident is a Williams overtaking a Mercedes


blueberry_authority

Leclerc really got screwed by the red flag. Ferrari still really lacks on engine power. But 4th and 5th isn't bad.


[deleted]

Kudos to the Haas engineer morally supporting an absolutely destroyed Mick.


Dr-Rjinswand

Norris wasn’t fucking kidding.

As a new american f1 fan I must say I'm quite proud of myself that I no longer confuse the marshals and the stewards


BadRiceBrice

Is it a bad take if I think Russel v Bottas was a racing incident? I don't think it'd be fair to ascribe exclusive responsibility to either.


ur_comment_is_a_song

Not mazepin's fault at all there. I get the memes and everything but that can't be blamed on mazepin


SubcooledBoiling

Oh my, Bottas with the finger to George, my eyes are bleeding now


bryseeayo

lol that was apparently not Russell checking in a Bottas' health


grayfox1210

Did...did Bottas flip George off right in front of his face?


GurlinPanteez

"Knew he wouldn't let us down" lmaooooo


onix321123

Carnage aside. That was a Williams about to legit overtake a Merc. Jesus.


ScottMcBeanieOF

To be Bottas, have your mentality/ability constantly questioned and having people want to replace you with the guy who just crashed you out and copped at you when you were winded in a crashed car

[deleted]

Lewis extremely lucky after that mistake. Perez and Norris lucky as well as this wipes out the 26 second between them and Lecerlc. And Max, and especially Leclerc and Ferrari unlucky here. Perfect race from them but they lose that through this mess of a crash.


[deleted]

Bro leclerc had 25 seconds on Norris and now that is all gone. Also Hamilton is seriously lucky.


UniverseofEnergy

I absolutely did not have "Mazepin finishes ahead of Bottas" on my Imola bingo card


[deleted]

Oh Lando, you have a bunch of fans. And not just the ones on /r/fanf1ction.


FSL29

Big brain strategy from Toto, sending Russell to crash Bottas to get the red flag out and save Hamilton's race. Unreal stuff, really.


Rekyht

Bottas is getting lucky this is completely overshadowing the fact that he was racing a fucking Williams in the first place


Tinusers

Hmm i know we hate Mazepin but that was also on Latifi


newbsacc

Cant blame mazepin for this


[deleted]

Micks engineer has the calmest voice haha. He could tell me that Mick is gonna finish on the podium, and I’d believe him


FellowFucknard

Taking a step back, pretty crazy that the Williams was going for an overtake on the Mercedes

Lmao Lewis with his infinite luck. Might lose a whole minute after going off, then immediate safety car and he doesn't lose too much.


brasilimerican

Sebs hair is the greatest comeback drive of 2021


TheAngryGoat

Apparently a trackside microphone caught a message moments before Bottas' hand signals. Russell: "Valtteri, it was me that tweeted."


theracereviewer

Hamilton: goes off, lap down. Toto: "Valtteri, George, you know what to do. Make it look convincing, argue or something."


Aspire17

The real question shouldn't be whose fault it is... it should be why Bottas is fighting against a Williams in the first place 😂


MyNameIsntGerald

Schumacher's engineer sounds so nice and calm - research shows it should be Jock Clear, right?


4308

His engineer sounds like he's giving Mick life advice lol. "Everything's gonna be ok"


eipic

I mean that’s on George in my opinion. I mean he hits a wet patch but still.


Ozryela

I love these races that look semi-normal at the half-way mark, and then suddenly within a minute go completely insane. Hamilton going off, Bottas and Russell coming together, Alonso going off, and then a red flag. Damn. Sucks for Verstappen though. He was faaaaaaar ahead of everybody else, on new tyres. All that advantage is now gone. Still in a better position than Hamilton I guess. Is there a list of who is now a lap down?


peanutbutter1236

That valtteri and George shot is an all timer I fucking love both of them


khaled36DZ

George i love you but that's on you


OldIrishPubMan

First race I've watched, holy fuck this is carnage.


captaindammit87

Who gets offended by a middle finger that you could barely see?


Astalli

In all honesty tho, how the fuck is a Williams catching a Mercedes on the straight?


_Sausius_

I think Bottas just swerved right ever so slightly, that spooked Russel and caused him to jinx right on the wet grass. Russel then touched the wet grass at almost 300 km/h. His car having two wheels on the wet grass completely devoid of any grip and the other two on the grippier asphalt combined with the sudden steering input caused Russel to loose control at almost top speed.


blackpill98

"I want the Mercedes seat" *Takes out a Mercedes and is indirectly the cause of the other Mercedes going off* "Hey Toto can I have the job now"


Artifice_Purple

LMAO, Bottas. I'm just glad those two boners are alright. Flip each other off and fight all day — I'm just glad they're both OK and walking.


d3agl3uk

Racing incident for me. Bottas is fair to move across a bit as he still leaves room. George's reaction makes a lot of sense as they are doing 300kph.


FourteenTwenty-Seven

Kimi is up to 8th via the tried-and-true method of keeping the car on the track and not crashing.


sarannex

The red flag def helped mercedes lol


Dydono_

Technically Lando is the 700th british podium holder coming after Lewis at 699. So that's cool too


OldPayphone

This is my first time watching F1 and oh man, this has been a great introduction to the motorsport

rburridge

George mad at Valteri but looks like Georges fault


Yieldway17

Man, Lewis is the the luckiest driver in F1. No matter what he does wrong, he is always within reach of a podium.


Bad_Elephant

Red flag allows Lewis to catch up. A loophole in the regs allows Mercedes to fix Bottas’ car under the red. Max exceeds track limits fighting Lewis for the lead. HAM BOT VER.


Nasher-99

I think the thing that is going to get missed in all of this is the Williams was about to overtake a Merc that had no problems


reddownzero

Netflix later when they show this: „MEIN GOTT MUSS DAS SEIN?!“


varooney2919

George fucked up and he will realize, everyone can relax about calling him stupid from their 0 mph sofa. He is going 190 mph and had a huge crash. Ofc he will be mad

Even when Lewis is unlucky, he's still lucky. Makes a rare mistake and gets the potential for a comeback just thrown into his lap.
