Latifi didn't even wait for the race to go full Latifi.  Qualifying is the best time to dive into a corner, you know.

Yeah, what's up with Latifi, eh? Williams will have no choice but to drop him if he keeps wrecking every practice and race. It's been a perfect record going back to Abu Dhabi, IIRC.

Stroll was the one who got the blame for that Q1 crash as he got a grid place penalty and rightly so because he was the one who turned his car into Latifi.

Albon got DQed from qualifying because his car couldn't give a fuel sample

Alpine fixed Alonso's car after his (mechanical issue caused) Q3 crash

I doubt the money Latifi brings makes up for the money the team is losing in rebuilding the car every time he crashes

This should be far to farkin' late/early for me, but I've not been going to bed until 2am anymore... so it's JUST in the realm of not being annoying. Time to get more coffee, and then on to Melbourne.

F1: 3 practices, qualifying, and pre race all free (well, on "cable"). Indycar: other than the race, jack shiat unless you pay for peacock. Heard Colton set a new record at LB today.

I dunno, some people may find his services rather valuable.

He was simply passing Stroll as they often do during qualifying. Stroll just wasn't paying attention and turned into Latifi.

I think they were equally at fault. Stroll goofed, but Latifi's been goofing up every single darned quali and race.

Any picks for tonight/today?

It's almost 1AM ET (GMT-5) and I'm feeling Leclerc and one of the Red Bulls DNFing, and Norris on the podium.

I'm thinking Herta has a better shot at an FP1 this year unless Pato screws his head back on straight.

In case you missed the news: they had 4 DRS zones on Friday, but took away the first one through the redesigned back stretch along the lake because the walls are too damn close to the track and it wasn't safe

First time I get to see a race live this year. Of course, I have to be at work at 6 and I only got 3 hours of sleep earlier, but some prices must be paid.

I'm loving this season. So far it's had everything except a competitive Mercedes, so it's been almost perfect. But it's early, so anything can happen.
