Danny P5 også! 

Selv om jeg heier på Tsunoda i denne team kampen her var det litt gøy å se Ricciardo gjøre det så bra rett etter Villeneuve sto i beste sendetid å kalte Ricciardo en oppskrytt fører som har mer PR verdi enn faktisk verdi som en racing fører. Det er få personer jeg tåler dårligere enn Villeneuve kjenner jeg, så holder meg nok unna Sky dekningen i morgen

For min del er eg skuffa over at vekt berre blir redusert med 30kg. Bilene burde blitt redusert til 600kg igjen.

synes det er idiotisk at f1 har en regel om minumums vekt, om et lag kan klare og kutte vekt og oppnå sikkerhetskravene burde de helt klart få ha fordelen.

James Vowles makes it very clear Williams' prime target for 2025 is Carlos Sainz.

Spennende race 🌧👌

Tja, hadde han ikke fått løpet ødelagt at RC så kanskje. Hvorfor ventet de ett minutt før de sendte ut SC?

Det var forbikjøring det av Albon!

Kan noen sende en nesehårstrimmer til Henning?

[Evil-Duck]

Nooo, Tsunoda 😢

Kanonbra løp 👏

[Evil-Duck]

Fantastisk løp ja, taler godt for resten av sesongen dette her 

[MartinF]

Nydelig løp. Canada gir oss alltid bangers, og dette var ikke noe unntak. Synd det ble Max tilslutt, men når det blir tørt der og Max ligger først så er det umulig å gjøre noe.

Han burde pensjonere seg. Det er dessverre en nedgradering hver gang han kommer på. Han snakker for mye om veldig gamle ting. 

 

Det der veldig mørkt ut for Perez. Lurer veldig på hva som er den langsiktige planen til redbull, de må jo spille 3d sjakk her? 

 

Tipper Sargent ryker med en gang Antonelli blir myndig. 

[Auto Asmodeus]

Bra race ellers. Mon tro hvordan løpet hadde gått dersom McLaren hadde doublestacka eller pitta Norris først ved SC.

Edit: Og det Red Bull gjorde med Perez er faen meg usmakelig. Så det regna småbiter etter bilen og at de sender ham inn fordi de vil unngå SC betyr også at de driter i sikkerheten til alle de andre fordi taktisk fordel er viktigere. Rasshøl hele gjengen.

The minimum age at which a driver can compete in Formula One has been lowered from 18 to 17, opening the door for Mercedes junior driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli to make his F1 debut before his 18th birthday on August 25.

The 17-year-old Italian is currently racing in Formula Two but has emerged as the leading contender to replace Lewis Hamilton when the seven-time world champion moves from Mercedes to Ferrari next year.

The lowered age limit applies to participation in a full race weekend and single practice sessions, and it will most likely result in Antonelli taking part in an FP1 session for Mercedes at one of the next six races.

In 2016 a minimum age of 18 was introduced for F1 superlicence applicants, but changes to the FIA's International Sporting Code this week mean 17-year-olds are now eligible as long as they are "judged to have recently and consistently demonstrated outstanding ability and maturity in single-seater formula car competition."

The FIA also removed a requirement for drivers to hold a road-car licence, which Antonelli is ineligible for in his native Italy until he turns 18.

In theory, the tweaked age limit allows Antonelli to race in F1 before his 18th birthday, but earlier this year Mercedes played down suggestions he might replace Logan Sargeant at Williams before the end of the 2024 season.

A free practice appearance is a more likely outcome, as all F1 teams are obliged to allocate at least two practice sessions per season to drivers with less than two grands prix experience.

For noe forbanna tull det der er. FIA mente Colton Herta ikke kunne få SL til å kjøre F1, men Antonelli som er 17 og har fremdeles har tilgode å få så mye som et podium i F2, han skal få SL?

THE CHALLENGES PIRELLI FACES TO MEET F1’S 2026 RULES TARGETS:

- Pirelli agreed to reduce the front tyre width by 25mm and the rear tyre width by 30mm while retaining the 18-inch wheels, aiming to save weight and enhance tyre performance for 2026. Pirelli Boss Mario Isola explained, "We proposed narrower 18-inch tyres to reduce weight, which we believe strikes a good balance."

- The FIA anticipates minimal loss of grip despite the smaller tyre dimensions, stating, "We do not expect significant changes in mechanical grip due to the tyre modifications." Says FIA single seater technical director Jan Monchaux.

- Discussions about switching to 16-inch rims were held, but concerns over load capacity and increased overheating led to the decision to continue with 18-inch tyres, as Isola elaborated, "After simulations...we opted to stick with 18-inch tyres."

- The weight reduction from smaller tyres contributes to the FIA's objective of decreasing car weight by 30kg. Nikolas Tombazis remarked, "The FIA will provide Pirelli with more opportunities to conduct tests for 2026."

- Pirelli faces challenges testing on current-era mule cars that lack representative aerodynamics for 2026. Isola clarified, "Our mule cars will be larger, heavier, and lack active aerodynamics."

- Pirelli plans to finalize tyre constructions by September 2025, expressing confidence in meeting the ambitious development timeline. Isola concluded, "We are committed to developing the best tyres for the future. If adjustments are needed in the first year, we will refine them."

- The reduction in tyre diameter from the current 720mm to 705-710mm is part of efforts to make F1 cars smaller and lighter while maintaining 18-inch wheels.

- Pirelli's decision to retain 18-inch tyres is aimed at addressing tyre overheating issues seen with the current F1 rubber, ensuring they meet the requirements for 2026.

- The smaller tyres are expected to save approximately four to five kilograms, contributing to overall weight reduction targets set by the FIA for the 2026 season.
