    How does race direction always miss everything? It’s mad. I understand it must be a hard job, but like… Wtf? Cutting away as soon as the nose of one car is ahead of another, missing battles up and down the order in favour of watching P1, P2, P3, and P4 go round in a procession. Makes the races seem so fucking tedious.

      I’m seriously considering to stop following the sport altogether since watching the events live often means I sacrifice part of my weekend and more often than not it’s just not worth it because either nothing happens all race or stuff does happen but the folks who direct it are more interested in showing celebrities and partners of drivers.

      I regularly fall asleep during races.

    Is it too much to ask to get pictures of the late passes instead of the Antonelli-Norris battle? There were not even replays of LEC passing ALO or GAS passing STR.

    Edit: and now BOR crashed and we don’t know why nor how… Nervermind, the broadcast showed a replay just after I hit send.

    Holy shit Bortoleto’s crash. Glad he’s ok.

    Understandable to check if he’s ok first before showing the footage.

    Franz Tost is on commentary today at Austrian TV and was just asked about Colapinto’s 2026 contract.

    Briatore has said that “ultimately we’ve got Franco on talent and the fact that he brings the financial side is a happy accident.”

    Tost says the truth is that “they got Franco because of the financial side, and the fact that he has talent is a happy accident”

    :D

      Antonelli might have said this, but it looks like the actual problem for Piastri, Hulk and Colapinto was that they were understeering the corner before and when trying to correct that they drove onto the wet curbs
