All this hype for a P17 finish.

[–] stephen01king@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wouldn't expect anything more, because that car is shit. But I enjoy the hype, nonetheless.

[–] soviettaters@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I will be cheering louder than ever after Danny has a thrilling fight with Logan Sargeant.

[–] frippz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I guess all we can hope for is a good fight with Yuki.

[–] Determinator@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Really looking forward to seeing how he performs this weekend, hoping he performs in line with all the hype surrounding his Sim work and test time in the Red Bull.

[–] ChrisFhey@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Do keep in mind that he’ll be driving a shitbox and not a Red Bull.

[–] june@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If he doesn’t win in an absolutely dominating fashion at the Hungaroring we’ll know he’s washed out.

[–] ChrisFhey@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

We'll see, I suppose. I kinda just hope it means Yuki is pretty good.

[–] timespace@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not to mention that his main complaint with the McLaren was corner entry and the AT has the same issue.

[–] soEZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

And breaks, don't forget the breaks...that Yuki describes in very colorful words last I remember...

This will be interesting, but my bet is if he could not consistently put decent laps with a shitbox mclaran, changing to a shitbkx alpha won't change a thing....

[–] ChrisFhey@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

That's not a good sign then. :(

[–] Determinator@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I know, definitely managing my expectations cause of that. Will be interesting to see how he performs relative to Yuki at least.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Part of me wonders if the car is actually better than it has looked driven by Yuki and Nyck.

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah. I've been under the impression that Yuki has been driving exceptionally well for most parts of the season. Especially until recently, he's been incredibly consistent.

[–] MrNorm@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I hope he does well. It's been really weird watching him go from Red Bull, Renault, McLaren and not really look that comfortable. I think he'd be good with Yuki

[–] f4te@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

boy that smirk just says it all, don't it?

[–] wim@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

That's Ricciardo's hide the pain smirk. He's always smiling, even last year during and after the McLaren debacle.

[–] Meloku 3 points 1 year ago

He looks so happy in that suit. It's not the best team to be racing on, but he's racing and he's enjoying it.

The vibe.

Admittedly, the fact that AT are apparently unable to learn from their parent team is definitely going to slow him down.

[–] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Back to the start 😁

[–] LouLimes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Dudes washed but I wish him the best

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO
