2022 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix - Imola, April 22 - 24

Sianz feeling the pressure.

[Mchamilton]

Sainz saying he wasn’t even pushing hard. Just lost it.

He was definitely pushing, he waa 0.4 up on his best and clearly sent it into that turn lol

[Mchamilton]

Another one on the board for George anyway

[Hammerfist]

That Ferrari looks scary bouncing like that while it’s wet.

[ENGINE TUNER]

Merc had both drivers sat in the garage for most of FP1 and I think it really showed the consequences here.

Any reason why Merc would've don't that in such a critical session?

Merc have the worst strategy team on the grid, look how they are not getting temp into the tires, but they were the last to get out of the garage in q2, bunch of clowns in the Merc strategy team.

Ham is incredibly downbeat, doesn't look like they have that 1s/lap pace in the car that they see in the wind tunnel.

[Mogster]

This is incredibly tough, Imola is a glorious venue

Fastest lap under a yellow? Surely that will be an issue, regardless of a little lift.

He was 1.1 up before hand, so he gave up 0.4 so thats a decent lift

The time will simply be scrapped. He did very clearly lift

There no reason for it to be scrapped, it was a single yellow flag, and he clearly lifted past the incident

Pointless crash from Sainz... He was already through to Q3, fastest car on the track, why?

yeah, but Ferrari is at fault there. They told him to keep pushing, because the rain is coming

Driver error isn't the teams fault. Even when the team says keep pushing, you're not supposed to push so much that you crash.

he needs to rely on the team to do the right thing (take it easy, in this case). That's what I was referring to. Of course the crash itself was his own fault.

[PlatinumZealot]

If I were Ferrari i would be protesting the lift from Max.

I thought that was in the rules now? That a faster time under yellow does not count? To avoid any incentive to push the limits

Despite lifting he did a 30.5 in the last sector compared to a 30.6 in his previous lap. The question is if lifting for a blink of an eye is enough. Obviously the purpose of yellow flags is for other cars to be significantly slower there.
