I do find it funny the broadcast and some other pods are so concerned about watch times for brit fans. Like man try being a east coast US fan. Loved Nico this weekend hopefully we'll get more of him instead of the other randos.
20:45 No dude the Full Wets are SLOWER than a sliding all over the place Intermediates. That’s why teams/drivers don’t use them. You’ll have grip with Wets, sure, but your lap time will be slower than everyone else and you’ll be lapped last. It would have to be raining so fucking hard for the Wets to be faster than Inters. Which if it is, *that’s* when the spray is a huge problem and they red flags it. The old wet tires from back in the day were awesome. Just watch Brazil 2016 and compare that to wet races now. Can’t blame Pirelli though since developing a specific type of tire with no data or development testing is kind of impossible. They keep trying but F1/FIA/teams need to cooperate and actually make it happen. Marko is just teasing. He’s using the expensive cost as just a tease to dismiss Sainz to the press if they end up not choosing him. They have their foot in all these doors and aren’t letting anyone know what they’re doing because they don’t even know yet.
What platform are you watching on that you all heard Niko and Crofty? I watch via F1 TV, and the commentators in the booth for the race were Alex Jacques and Jolyon Palmer. Feeling like I really missed some commentary gold this weekend. 😕
You can switch with F1TV. Tap the screen once, top right is Alex and co, one beneath is Sky coverage. One below that is just raw data and the bottom one of the 4 options is the live feed from any cockpit of which you can choose to have commentary OR actual engine sound + pitwall comms.
I feel like Lewis is not like fully engaged in set up? He leaves it up to the engineers? He was used to the bullet engine and just slamming on downforce whatever. But nowadays maybe even the engineers are pretty clueless.
I live in NZ & I can’t explain the sleep deprived fueled injection of euphoria I got when I saw this pop up on my home page at midnight, you guys make the sport so much more entertaining 🫶⚡️
You know, I never pay attention to y’alls name, but the dude with the white hat looks like Kendall Schmidt from Big Time Rush. Literally, look him up 😂
Thank you for acknowledging Sainz's behaviour. This is the race that proves why he didn't get renewed I feel. He shows flashes of brilliance but then he takes it into the gravel. Also he is showing why he didn't stay at Mclaren, Renault and why they didn't fight for him when he was a Red Bull junior driver. Sainz drives for himself, he has always been selfish and never plays as a team. Ever.
You guys are delulu with that max cause stroll to crash into Daniel on purpose what would be the benefit of that max doesn’t want safety cars they close the gap between him and the person in 2nd
Not sure how? He was pushing to the very limit on that last stint and his back right slipped slightly into the gravel. Most drivers would lose so much time there or even spin out whilst Fernando lost almost no time and passed Lewis only a few corners later. There's a lot of credit to be given in that recovery.
yellow shirt may want to lay off the hater-ade. the constant jabs and assuming intent in several drivers' actions (armchair expert indeed) isn't helpful to anyone, and the stroll take is where i'm gonna just click off the video. big oofs. I liked the podcast up until that point - there was a guest show a couple weeks back that was a fun watch. maybe try more of that, less of whatever this is
brother.....how are you defending lance. The on-board literally SHOWS him not paying attention and looking to his right at the apex of the corner...basically texting and driving lol
Nico needs to be there every weekend

Full wets also overheat and degrade very quickly if the track isn't a literal river.
To the people saying "stop defending Lance"... they dont? Keep listening and keep opinions to the end of the lesson 😂
Great pod as always boyos!
Bro in yellow just won gold in Mental Gymnastics for that absolutely brain dead defense of Lance Stroll….
The only sport they compete in.
Only old heads hate on Sprint races
What you should do is ... GET OFF MY LAWN YA HIPPIE!
Nope. Most drivers prefer the old format too. My 20 something son prefers the old format too.
Danny did hit Oscar in the process damaging his diffuser apparently. So he was nursing an impaired car until the end.

Just waiting for the Yuki/Magnussen section of the pod so I can be angry with likeminded individuals.
40:36 and we're here.
Martin has a 16 race contract, he wanted to be there and Japan as well. Good show

Merc being clueless is only sinking in now?
32:04 EXACTLY Riccardo knew how to hold his line.

Ha. True
Things I’d never expect to hear on the Red Flags Podcast, the helmet catch!!!!

The Lance Stroll defense is wild. Get bent.
What do you expect? Part of the tribe.
People forget that rain is an equaliser Lewis' set up would have only given him p8 rp7 at maximum so i get it that he wants to experiment
They put soft on Fernando so he could try to take advantage on some cars at the restart after SC
Nico destroyed checo post race interview. I like Nico's racers take as a commentator but that was too much.
Sprint race was so much fun. Traditionalists gonna stop hating fshooooo
You guys are delulu with that max cause stroll to crash into Daniel on purpose what would be the benefit of that max doesn’t want safety cars they close the gap between him and the person in 2nd
Guys....even most drivers prefer the old format. So no valid point!!
My 20 something son prefers the old format. 😐☺️
Martin is blatantly unwell, very sad. I do not enjoy Nico's commentating. But he is better than the others (not Crofty obvs)
Dude im sorry but all of the "yeah" "rights" "yup" add-libs are a little hard to hear
don't defend Lance guys, c'mon
He’s making good points but it still it strolls fault. It’s just not as horrible as everyone is saying
OMG Formula 1 has hit rock bottom when people are praising sprint races
Please dont pronounce guillotine like gillateen
Fernando is getting praised so much for a mistake that he made is beyond me😂
Not sure how? He was pushing to the very limit on that last stint and his back right slipped slightly into the gravel.

@@pepperbrooks7 but that recovery would have been needed if he didn't make the mistake in the first place
@@marshallmarthes So you admit he saved it?
I did not care for Nico’s commentary 😂
Lmao brother, brother please. Were you hung over still watching the stroll collision? Lance is a bonehead.
yellow shirt may want to lay off the hater-ade. the constant jabs and assuming intent in several drivers' actions (armchair expert indeed) isn't helpful to anyone, and the stroll take is where i'm gonna just click off the video. big oofs.

Or we could just not hate the drivers and criticize them for mistakes
Leclerc should’ve been Karen of the day for the sprint race
brother.....how are you defending lance. The on-board literally SHOWS him not paying attention and looking to his right at the apex of the corner...basically texting and driving lol
They are tribal brothers.
