[Official] Rate the Grand Prix: Austrian Grand Prix 2023

What is your vote?

That was an enjoyable race and despite it being a bit of a track limits penalty fest, the penalties added some intrigue. However, I don't think they had too much of an impact on the outcome of the race. Looking at how the cars, drivers and teams stack up relative to each other, this is more or less the result I would have expected if there had been no penalties. 7

[Aysedasi]

I enjoyed the highlights. The track limits business is farcical. Dig a bloody great hole there and fill it with gravel. I thought it was decent to watch. I'll give it a slightly generous 7.

[rika]

Would maybe give 6 or 7 but will wait with rating until results final.


If takes too long will subtract points
If too many changes will subtract point.




This should just be handled better!

[rika]

Sorry I voted 8 but can you nplease delete that.
The 8 was meant fo sprint race not GP

[rika]

Please change my rate from 8 which was meant to be for sprint race to 1.


Race could have got 6 or 7 but hate way they handled it and finally deserve not more than 1.




Race results only 5 hours after race
Handling of penalties was very very poor
Race resutls not like race I watched so feel cheated


1 is more than enough.




Please change vote, thanks!

Ignoring the track limit penalties it was a very enjoyable race with lots of varying tyre strategies.
So 8.
If I was going to think too deeply about track limits it might have been a generous 2.

[nobster]

because the track limit saga I gave it a 3, without it would have been a 7

[steve_r]

Ignoring the track limit debacle I gave it a 6. If the track limits thing was at the forefront of my tired and hazy mind this morning, I would have given it a much lower score.

It would be nice to have a race winner that was not a foregone conclusion at some point before this season is up. But the racing further down the field was good.

The level of dominance is now so great that it would take a brave man to bet against a RBR whitewash this season. Every race a team seems to get a little bit closer, Aston Martin, then Mercedes, perhaps even McLaren but then by the next race they seem to drop back again. There is no consistent challenge from any team. And we no longer really have anything much in the way of mechanical unreliability to mix things up a bit.

Can someone change my 8 to 1 or tell nme how I can do it?
I see no option so I can not do it myself, no?

I'm not sure about this - Perez is beatable, so all (ha!) it's going to take is a Verstappen reliability issue and the whitewash is gone. There's a long way to go yet and reliability/engine penalties could still come into play.

Sorry I don't understand any of those options???




What you mean by 'generally', that means sometimes there is a way, no?
But how?






It was because there was 2 poll at once and I placed my vote in wrong topic.

For that I apologise but that is reason I did mistake.

[Aysedasi]

The question is, bearing in mind just how important a forum poll can be, is it really that important.....? Then again, nowadays we're voting on sprint races, so perhaps it really is that important....

I think you're being invited to search eBay for a cheap time machine.....

[steve_r]

He is saying that there is no way of changing your vote, with a joke about time travel.

These votes are just a bit of fun, and not to be taken too seriously, so no need to change. They do sometimes give us an overview as to whether other people liked the race or not and sometime enable interesting conversations.

If I could go back in time I would amend my own vote downwards by a couple of points, but it's not that important really!

7. There were a few small lulls, but it was mostly entertaining.

[rika]

Is OK, I did not understand joke


Maybe from movie I have not seen? I have no idea what but is OK.

Likewise!

7. Quite a good race. A bit farcical with the track limits penalties. The fault is with the FIA. Get it sorted for 2024.

Primarily, the fault is with the drivers. They are the ones not sticking to the rules. But the FIA is also culpable for the silly track design and rules.

[Lancsbreaker]

Quite a good race with a lot of action through the field, but downed it to a 6 because of the incompetence of dealing with the track limit issues......

[Born Racer]

Some decent racing, some awful DRS. 4.

And Red Bull again.

Three DRS zones is ridiculous.

[GT6]

well better than some recent races so gave it a 5
