Won’t spoil the result for you but, Dick Tantrum. The gift that never stops giving!

Tantrum showing a lack of racing brain there as swinging in so much at turn 1 in an F2 race is only ever going to lead to trouble. |

Dick’s a quick driver to be fair, but has a really horrible habit of bad mouthing and blaming everyone else for his mistakes and shortcomings. Which is why they listen out for him on the radio. |

Bit gutted for Piastri in today's race. He was top entertainment but should perhaps have ceded the corner to Ticktum and regrouped for another go along the straight to turn 3?
He'll learn from that but the signs are clear he is a real ace in the making. Lawson looks a cool customer? Shwartzmann's got his work cut out if he thinks he's gonna just walk this season! |

So what did everyone think of the new race format? Yay or nay?

I dont really know about the format if im honest, i cant really say it made things better or worse. The races this weekend were good though, DRS wasn't over powerful which is normally a huge bugbear of mine. Impressed with Ticktum in the feature race.

Thought the new format and the racing was great.
The only improvement I’d like to see is a better way to set the grid for race 2. Maybe second fastest Q lap? Also need to make the penalties more consistent. |

Is Verschoor full season or will he be replaced if there's a driver with cash?
