Well to be fair, Lando also wants to make the gap between him and Checo bigger. So, Daniel goes faster = Lando goes faster = bigger gap between Checo
‘TeLl DaNiEl To PiCK uP THe PaCE’ FUCK OFFFFFF
There aren’t enough words to describe how heartbroken I am at this moment. What made me more worried was when Rafa revealed that he started feeling the pain as early as his match against Basilashvili. My heart goes out to him and praying for a speedy recovery 🙏🏻🙏🏻. If there’s one thing Rafa Nadal always does, it’s bouncing back no matter what 💪🏻.
Congrats as well to Del Potro. Definitely put up a fight, but also had great sportsmanship at the end. It’s very hard to hate the lovable giant 😊.
THANK YOU I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS! AND AS AN ASIAN F1 FAN, VEGAS BEING A NIGHT RACE IS ANOTHER PLUS FOR ME NOT WAKING UP AT 1 AM TO WATCH THE RACE
F1 Drivers React To The New Las Vegas GP
THIS!!! Sometimes and idk why but I forget I still have my glasses on when I step in and realize only when the water hits my lenses 😂
Based on a true story :)
Webtoon
We’re also gonna need VB’s story about his last trip to Vegas 🤣
So, Is Charles Leclerc gonna tell us what he and Daniel had done in Vegas?
Man been teasing us for decades.
YOU TELL ‘EM CHARLES! YOU TELL THOSE HATERS 👏🏻
max antis can go suck eggs in hell and charles said that PERSONALLY 🥰
Couldn’t have said it better myself 👏🏻. We Asian F1 fans experience the same almost for all the races, heck the races in the US alone is at 1 AM in my time zone, but with Vegas being a night race, it’s gonna be one happy Sunday morning whilst I watch the race 😇☀️
My 2 cents on the Vegas GP bc I can't sleep:
- I don't really have an issue with 3 races in the US. The US, as a country with a rich motor racing heritage, hosts a myriad of historical racetracks of high standards. But instead of making use of those readymade circuits, we have a track that is aspiring to give Daytona a run for its money on bumpiness, a stadium parking lot, and a street circuit. The opening of the US market is a wonderful opportunity to introduce the wider world to the beauty of American circuits and the quality racing they are capable of producing, not tourist postcard attractions with labeled corners.
- This may be total nonsense, but the words of the governor are giving me the vibe that he wants Vegas GP to be the new Monaco GP (in terms of glamour and prestige). First of all, Monaco isn't the most fitting track for current cars, so the racing isn't that great, but that's not the point. The point is that, with Monaco ceasing to be a standalone event this season and Vegas coming onto the calendar next season, I'm sensing perhaps Vegas will be (or attempt to be) on par with Monaco in terms of special events. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I hope Vegas doesn't become like Monaco, where what happens outside of the race is of more substance than what happens on race day. Nowhere else has Monaco's racing heritage to be able to pull it off.
- I think I would be delusional to believe historic European tracks won't be cut from the calendar. In fact, I would rather prefer it over 30 races, although it is not unlikely to have 30 races and less European circuits in a few years time. The removal of motor racing history and heritage from the calendar is sad to watch.
- A bit of tangential observation: Europe (FIA WEC) and America (IMSA) spent years working out a cohesive regulation (LMH and LMDH) to make racing more accessible across the pond. Phenomena like this represent the trend of motor racing becoming more global (especially across the Atlantic), with a key emphasis on the quality and cultural heritage of motor racing (shown in the endurance case: WEC constructors want to race in Daytona/Sebring, IMSA constructors want to race in Le Mans). It shows sacrificing racing heritage like historic circuits is not necessary for attracting new crowds; in fact, one may argue that these historic circuits are drawing said new crowd in.
- Going back to F1 and motorsports. The way to create and maintain viewership is through superb racing and professional race control on high quality circuits. Drive to Survive is all fun and games until the newly-inducted realise the lies and cracks in a gimmicky show. F1 shouldn't aspire to be widely publicised and widely ridiculed as a Netflix show.
- That said, Vegas can end up a great track and if it does so I'd happily eat my words.
- I know some Europeans care about time zone, but it's something most of us non-Europeans had to deal with for most of the season. Just as I don't believe F1 should specifically accommodate American viewers, they are not obligated to go out of their way to accommodate European viewers either. It is one weekend, and no one is putting a knife on your throat to watch it live.
isn't it SO boring when the same driver wins every week :/
I ship FEDAL all the way, but this is still a better love story than Twilight 😂♥️
when Grigor visited the Rafael Nadal Academy | on ‘ seeing Rafa on his home turf ’ :
“It was great. I think we had an amazing time. Honestly I mean he’s a special guy to me, I’ve always looked up to him. He’s just — what can I say. I mean I don’t think there’s enough words to explain the importance of that for me to be there with him on the court practicing and kind of just learning. Even if it’s on the court or whenever we have that little time to — while we’re grabbing a bit of food or anything like this. And then we still had some time to enjoy a little bit; we were going around the island a little bit, trying to enjoy the water, so just spending time like two regular guys it didn’t feel — the best thing it didn’t feel like any competing or anything like this, and I think this is so important, like a healthy I’d say rivalry but it’s not exactly the way it is. We compete against each other but in the same time we kind of could put everything aside, we didn’t have to talk about tennis all the time, we enjoyed other topics and just spent some time together. I was very frank with him, and very straight, I was like ‘listen, I want to ask you some things’ and he’s ‘yeah sure, ask me’ so I was just asking him right away without pulling back, and yeah, he was actually a little bit surprised sometimes which was pretty funny but I’m a pretty straight-up person so that’s cool.”
Such an AMAZING match from these LEGENDS 🔥⚡️🇪🇸🇨🇭🎾
Unpopular opinion: How about we see how the cars perform around the circuit first before blasting it all to hell?! 😤
Me walking in to see people complaining about the Las Vegas street circuit: Ah, so people are getting aggy and need to take a breather.
I’m being serious, some of you are coming off as bratty little kids when things don’t go their way.
