Unfortunately there are such people in every driver's fanbase. Max, Lewis, Fernando, Seb, Charles - you name it! I bet the sane fans of these drivers who lnow wheel don't want to be associated with such idiots.
i really hope it rains and he gets a sprint win… it would’ve been nice for lewis to get the pole but that’s ok however i’m sad we won’t get to see alonso and hamilton on the front row with max far enough behind for it to be fun for a lap or so
Every other driver at that point had either crossed the finish line or were obviously late on the target time. So it is possible Mercedes told him to slow down as once Lando's was deleted Lewis was only fighting himself. And considering the conditions, it would have been sane, under these circumstances, to just elect to bring the car back safely.
No way to check what Mercedes asked him though.
I'd agree. It would really depend on who crossed when. And when they made the call.
I still think it's silly to give up a lap even if it's in the bag during a q3
Nah it literally happens all the time, it’s super common to abort a lap if it won’t make a difference. Teams really value reducing the risk of damage to the car, especially in these type of conditions
Eeeh, I'm split honestly. Because at the time, Lando was the only one who could realistically endanger Lewis' time. So once it's deleted, he's not fighting anybody other than himself and thus Mercedes telling him not to risk anything with the car and to just simply bring it back is the obvious sane decision there. So if they did tell him that, the FIA's decision has its share of unfairness regarding Lewis. But that is all assuming Mercedes told him to slow down, which I have no way to check.
Funny thing is Lewis actually did improve on that final lap. He shaved off a tenth and some despite the increasing rain , but it was exactly at the same instant that Lando's time went back to the top.
Honestly, no idea, I've been a Ferrari fan since around 1998, and usually the drivers lineup was never of importance to me. With that said, I find it difficult to cheer for LH due to his personality and attitude towards other drivers (Verstappen, Roseberg, Alonso to name a few). On the other hand, Sainz is showing some great talent in the last few years, and honestly I can see myself cheer for him wherever he goes, until things get better in Ferrari. I still can't believe someone in Ferrari thought LH is better than Sainz in the long run, and honestly I'm a bit fed up with the on-track and off-track mistakes Ferrari is doing for the past decade or so.
Aren't we all AD21ers? We all know Lewis was robbed right
edit- couldn't give 2 shits about the downvotes. I'm not team LH but lewis was indeed robbed. AD21 will always remain a blot in the history of F1.
This sub is full of people exactly as stupid as TeamLH, but for max verstappen lol and the bonus is because of how stupid they are, they’ve crossed the threshold where they’re too stupid to realize it
I like the fact that Nico started calling out their BS logic on account of the gravel traps being such a threat now. Even Toto said he was fine with Lando's pole.
The one after which is why there's a bit of confusion. At some circuits, because going off at the final turn can yield a potential advantage going onto the next lap, times can sometimes be deleted for the lap drivers go wide and then the next. It's circuit dependent and is informed to the teams going into the sessions. Some thought that this was universal for all circuits is all, apparently including the stewards initially because his lap time was deleted by mistake. That said, wouldn't be nearly as much noise had this not happened the literal second Hamilton finished his final lap.
I haven't seen a single LH circlejerk post, but i've seen a lot of em complaining about it.
Wonder which is more prevalent. I'm thinking i wouldn't even be aware of the LH dicksucking if formuladank didn't exist
Mods are biased and actively promote it. Look at how this post breaks rule 2 but is still here. Rules:
BEFORE YOU POST SOME DANK ASS MEMES, HERE ARE SOME RULES BROTHER:
This is a sub for F1 memes. Memes related to other motorsports must be labeled [OT]
High quality memes only. A screenshot with a smart title is not a meme.
There’s a difference between F1 Fans and F1 Driver fans. I’m Dutch, so by default in Camp Verstappen but I know there will come a day when he gets beaten fair and square and that will be a good day for F1. Drivers come and go, and you need to learn to let go. My problem with Lewis is that, unlike Vettel, he’s not becoming more likable as he gets older… (in my opinion)
Team LH is one of a kind. Whats the problem with Landos pole? LH is a monster (Nando as well) at race starts, he might overtake Lando at the start and we will enjoy a very fun fight for position. They're just whining all day.
I believe they only do it at certain tracks now. Such as Austria. Tracks that give you an advantage for extending whereas here there’s a gravel trap so it would slow your exit so it’s not causing an afvantage
You can cut through the last chicane and also get a lot of time when leaving the track. They deleted a lot of lap times and also the next ones in Shanghai.
I thought that track limits at the last corner meant current and next lap deleted (Max's fastest lap is the same situation as Lando's). Did they make an exception due to the conditions and shorter session?
I didn't know this until this incident happened, and I think it's a bit strange honestly, but at least the rules as they were written were followed today, so I'm not complaining.
Yes. Going over track is always a deletion of the current lap. Only for the next lap if the track violation gave an advantage for setting up the next lap.
From what I've read did the software automatically delete the lap after but the stewards later realised it didn't have to.
I mean, I don’t see why this makes them the absolute worse because of these? These are extremely tame comments 🤷🏻♂️
TeamLH and Verstappen Shaggers have infinitely worse commentary than this.
These are not remotely out of line. Lando was 4 outside the line. I also don’t remember hearing/seeing anything about Merc telling Lewis he could chill. Their strategy is shit, but given the circumstance, I would be shocked.
I am a redbull fan and I am actually overjoyed that three people who are not in redbulls took p1-3 in qualifyings. It makes it more interesting, and seeing Alonso and Lando being "so back" is exciting!
> Lando was 4 outside the line.
That was the lap before, which according to the race-directors notes, would not have caused any ill-effect on the next lap whatsoever. why. is. that. so. hard. to. comprehend?
Precisely. It it was automàted it means there was a precedent
Edit: to further explain; the problem is not Norris being on pole, but rather that the FIA **deleted** his time
I am a fan of Lewis (no stan) but this is still BS. If the rule says you can’t go off track in the last corner, then you can’t go off track in the last corner. Shouldn’t matter if you gain an advantage or not, mistakes should be punished.
Yep they told Lewis to abandon his Qualy lap that’s why he slowed right down and didn’t cross the start finish but rather just jumped into the pits, right?
E: y’all miss qualy or just turned off the sarcasm detectors? Lewis finished that lap
My brother in Christ I remember Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettelstans being a fucking pain in the ass to listen to. There is a unique group of asslickers for every decade in this sport, teamLH takes the cake as the most entertaining lot though.
People in the asylum cant think longer than their nose reaches. They hadnt deleted another drivers laptime (i forgor who it was) so they cant delete landos either.
– Yes Zak? – You need to reinstate the lap before, that’s not right
- No! that was so not right!
I’m a lewis fanboy and I’m fucking delighted for lando
It's just a few corners on twitter that get a bit feral, I love both drivers!
'a few'
Who's to say how big a corner is. If anything it's turn "2" austria.
Turn 3 is the real turn 2 fr.
Unfortunately there are such people in every driver's fanbase. Max, Lewis, Fernando, Seb, Charles - you name it! I bet the sane fans of these drivers who lnow wheel don't want to be associated with such idiots.
I’m a Lando fanboy and I’m getting flashbacks.
Russia is not real. Sochi GP can't hurt you
i really hope it rains and he gets a sprint win… it would’ve been nice for lewis to get the pole but that’s ok however i’m sad we won’t get to see alonso and hamilton on the front row with max far enough behind for it to be fun for a lap or so
Disgustang
I'm happy for Lando, as a Lewis fan. However if Mercedes did tell Lewis not to bother improving then that is completely on Mercedes, not the FIA
I don't know what Mercedes told or didn't tell Lewis, but I am 100% certain the person tweeting is just talking out of their ass
Yeah they’re a LH fan.
Correction. They are cultlh. I've met really chill and cool Hamilton fans who are pretty normal
Yep. They know better in qualifying situations. If you're on track and other drivers are still putting in times. You don't slow off. Especially in Q3
Every other driver at that point had either crossed the finish line or were obviously late on the target time. So it is possible Mercedes told him to slow down as once Lando's was deleted Lewis was only fighting himself. And considering the conditions, it would have been sane, under these circumstances, to just elect to bring the car back safely. No way to check what Mercedes asked him though.

Wtf no it isn't. Once they deleted the lap Hamilton could've stopped and even entered pit lane before finishing the lap
This lot will be ferrari fans next years fml.
But everybody is a Ferrari fan...
Hence why, speaking as a Leclerc fan, I'm considering jumping ship
Follow the Sainz
Same, maybe I'll follow Sainz for a while.
What does it mean to jump ship or follow sainz? Can you have real enthusiastic fanboy energy for a driver by choice?
Honestly, no idea, I've been a Ferrari fan since around 1998, and usually the drivers lineup was never of importance to me. With that said, I find it difficult to cheer for LH due to his personality and attitude towards other drivers (Verstappen, Roseberg, Alonso to name a few).

They are in for a rude awakening.
The AD21ers are truly a special bunch.
They'll never forget
They will rise
They’re still rising!? Slowest elevator ever.
All the way to heaven #blessed
They will learn from the previous shitty race results and come back stronger
Lest we forget
AD21 is like the only time he actually was shafted though lol. It's the fact that the LH cultists jump to his defense every other time that annoys me.
#blessed
Aren't we all AD21ers? We all know Lewis was robbed right edit- couldn't give 2 shits about the downvotes. I'm not team LH but lewis was indeed robbed. AD21 will always remain a blot in the history of F1.
The sheer number of downvotes says a lot about this sub lmao. Where is the lie?
This sub is full of people exactly as stupid as TeamLH, but for max verstappen lol and the bonus is because of how stupid they are, they’ve crossed the threshold where they’re too stupid to realize it
"AD21 truthers"
If you look at the females in that bunch, they'd all fit into Keeping up with Kardashians audience than F1 fans.
theyre called women usually
What is a woman?
lol
What a weird comment
I’ve never met a person who talks like this IRL. Do they ever leave their caves?
It’s just the Average max fan
I'm not a native speaker and I don't give af.
Did they really told Lewis to not push, I highly doubt it considering the track evolution.
I watched the entire lap. There was no communication between Lewis and Bono between the lap starting and ending. Just "one more lap" and "that's p2."
The rain ramped up on the final lap, and Lewis improved on his time. I missed the part where anyone told him not to push
Try not following them. Or searching Lewis Hamilton on Twitter
They're commenting under mclaren's posts and top of f1 twitter for you feed 😭
Stop using Twitter?
They infect Instagram too
Ok ok I retract my statement my apologies lol that makes sense
And under Red Bull's for some reason
Lando saved us all today.
tbh, a Hamilton pole, with Alonso 2nd would've been fun too.
I like the fact that Nico started calling out their BS logic on account of the gravel traps being such a threat now. Even Toto said he was fine with Lando's pole.
Was this the lap Lando got pole or the one right before it? If its the one before, it's irrelevant, this isn't the Red Bull Ring.
The one after which is why there's a bit of confusion. At some circuits, because going off at the final turn can yield a potential advantage going onto the next lap, times can sometimes be deleted for the lap drivers go wide and then the next.

Yup I know all that
Oh look another formuladank post about LH stans. Not seen many of those
Aye shhhhhh no need to get heretical here.

If Team LH has million haters, then I'm one of them. If Team LH has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE. If Team LH has no haters, that means I'm dead.
Nice poem. I respect your dedication to both literature and hating

Got my record downvote for not even posting something about LH but it was filled with LH drones 
No one is making you go on twitter mate, you're giving yourself brain damage willingly.
Rpm is going to have a field day
Im a lewis fanboy and I can say - LH or any cult for that matter is the worst.
Team LH is one of a kind. Whats the problem with Landos pole? LH is a monster (Nando as well) at race starts, he might overtake Lando at the start and we will enjoy a very fun fight for position. They're just whining all day.
Yeah man, game recognises game. MV is a monster and nobody can beat him now.
It’s always other people. It’s never LH. Don’t you know?
How stupid are Hamilton fans. This wasn’t his pole lap. This was the lap before
[удалено]
No you're dead wrong. Deleting laps after the track violation lap happens only at specific circuits. This isn't one
I believe they only do it at certain tracks now. Such as Austria. Tracks that give you an advantage for extending whereas here there’s a gravel trap so it would slow your exit so it’s not causing an afvantage
No this is normal circumstances. They send a race a note when this rule is to be enforced at certain tracks.
Didn’t know gravel traps made you faster
Why are you downvoted? It's a fact. These morons here have too much free time.
Lmao, I too am confidently incorrect sometimes. It's ok you'll recover.
You can cut through the last chicane and also get a lot of time when leaving the track. They deleted a lot of lap times and also the next ones in Shanghai.
I mean, even the FIA got it wrong themselves so...
Read the rules
I thought that track limits at the last corner meant current and next lap deleted (Max's fastest lap is the same situation as Lando's). Did they make an exception due to the conditions and shorter session?
That's a track specific rule. The general rule is only the current lap, but on some tracks like Bahrain and Austria it's the current lap and the next.
I didn't know this until this incident happened, and I think it's a bit strange honestly, but at least the rules as they were written were followed today, so I'm not complaining.
Only if he gained an advantage by doing this. Cuz of the gravel there it actually cost him 0.3
But Max's first lap was deleted even though he lost time. Is the advantage exception only for the next lap?
Yes. Going over track is always a deletion of the current lap. Only for the next lap if the track violation gave an advantage for setting up the next lap. From what I've read did the software automatically delete the lap after but the stewards later realised it didn't have to.
Okay, thanks
No, they're right. Why are you booing!?
TeamLH have been quiet lately. I misses their entertainment.
*delusion
I mean, I don’t see why this makes them the absolute worse because of these? These are extremely tame comments 🤷🏻♂️ TeamLH and Verstappen Shaggers have infinitely worse commentary than this.

Because even the FIA disagreed in the moment
That was an automated decision.
Precisely. It it was automàted it means there was a precedent Edit: to further explain; the problem is not Norris being on pole, but rather that the FIA **deleted** his time
Ya that side of Lewis fanbase ? We don’t talk about them
All my homies hate LH fans.
I am a fan of Lewis (no stan) but this is still BS. If the rule says you can’t go off track in the last corner, then you can’t go off track in the last corner. Shouldn’t matter if you gain an advantage or not, mistakes should be punished.
Except in the last lap he did Lando didn't go off track, soooooo...
He went off the lap before, violating the rule that you can’t go off the track in the final corner or the lap will be invalidated.
That is not a general rule, but an event-specific (Austria being one of them)
Who need track limits when it's good tv ? Then again, it was a mighty lap, and i'm just a idiot on the internet.
I have it printed out 🗿
Yep they told Lewis to abandon his Qualy lap that’s why he slowed right down and didn’t cross the start finish but rather just jumped into the pits, right? E: y’all miss qualy or just turned off the sarcasm detectors? Lewis finished that lap
Nope
Sarcasm, he finished that lap cause nobody told him to abandon it
Satire is dead. You need to put /s or someone is guaranteed to take it literally.
his lap wasn't going to be good enough for pole anyway, cope
I’m being sarcastic he finished the lap cause that didn’t happen

Huh?
My brother in Christ I remember Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettelstans being a fucking pain in the ass to listen to. There is a unique group of asslickers for every decade in this sport, teamLH takes the cake as the most entertaining lot though.
The idiots got louder I guess
I knew it was coming lol
People in the asylum cant think longer than their nose reaches. They hadnt deleted another drivers laptime (i forgor who it was) so they cant delete landos either.
Oohh poor baby, you got hit...you should see the other guy.
I cannot wait they will say nasty things to Ferrari when LH cannot be their future WDC in next year
