Those emergency ponchos will be in good use this weekend at the 2025 F1 season-opener in Melbourne!

Technical track with close walls in some areas? Check.

Several rookies first F1 race? Check.

High likelihood of rain? Check.

This should be fun.

We're all here to see Lance Stroll bin it, and you know it!

[–] Majorllama@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

It would be really funny if he was the only one to put it in the wall the whole race.

Looks like 9 DNFs in 2010 is the highest we've seen in Australia, maybe we can break the record this time.

Well stroll is definitely good for taking himself and at least two others out. Let's say each rookie decides to take a trip across the grass. That gets us to 7... Who else is likely to crash?

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm willing to bet $20 on Hamilton going out cuz "This car's really screwed up mate" while Charles drives it just fine with no complaints and makes it to the podium.

[–] Majorllama@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Not a Hamilton fan haha.

I don't like ocon so let's say he also crashes. That gets us to 9. Who is the last guy to screw up?

[–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Hulkenberg to crash out on the penultimate lap from 2nd.

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

Looks like we hit 6/7 predicted, and although Hamilton didn't dnf, he was incredibly unhappy the whole time.

With the most shocking twist, "Hulkenberg in second" was closer than anyone would have guessed.
