“We’ve lost Bottas to engine problems, and we’ve lost Tsunoda to Kevin Magnussen problems” 💀 💀 💀

Why are people confused as to why the Williams cars are struggling?? They’re being held together with duct tape, spit, prayers, and the last bit of James Vowles’ dignity. Like let’s not be shocked they’re shit let’s be grateful they’re fucking running

post-race Yuki Tsunoda was so calm in his interviews commenting on Magnussen ramming his car unnecessarily and getting thrown out of the race, it’s so sad that now he has to intentionally be overly calm and controlled even when he has every right to be mad because everyone calls him “the immature aggressive one”
I was just thinking about it because after the race Daniel Ricciardo was visibly offended and cussing about Lance crashing into him. Daniel of course had every right to be mad, but it’s just so sad that no one, Daniel included, affords Yuki the same grace to have emotional responses like a human being because of the projected Model Minority Myth they put on Yuki.

The moment everyone in the Toyota Gazoo Racing garage earned their Oscars:
Half an hour before the end of the race, Kamui Kobayashi is in the car with clear instructions to do a massive fuel-saving job.
Ferrari No.50 (Fuoco)'s engineer comes on the radio telling him to push, they're convinced Kamui will need to pit again for fuel.
In the Toyota garage, Nyck de Vries is watching the screens with everyone else.
Alex Wurz pulls none-too-gently at Nyck's jacket and tells him to get ready.
Nyck rips off his headset, takes off his jacket. Comms (and everyone watching) interpret that as a sign that they're going to pit Kamui soon.
Wurz pulls in both Kazuki Nakajima and Sébastien Buemi for a talk, comms pick up on their concerned looks.
The message (probably) gets relayed to everyone chasing Kamui, especially Estre, so he doesn't push as hard to save his own fuel.
....Kamui doesn't pit. He has enough fuel.
Minutes later, Nyck is in his jacket again, all cozied up and sitting nice and pretty in the garage.

Anthony Davidson on commentary: “I’m particularly pleased for Nyck de Vries. Formula One chewed him up and spat him out. But he’s bounced back and I can tell you with conviction that he is -- make no mistake about it -- one of the best sportscar drivers the world has ever seen.”
😭😭😭😭😭 NYCK. YOU'RE A WINNER BABY.

what’s crazy is I genuinely think in a few years nyck de vries can wash away the f1 stint, it’ll just be a distant weird memory replaced with Toyota trophies

its so lovely that the organisers allowed zhou to have that moment on the grid, post race. they've really acknowledged how monumental it is that he's the first chinese driver in f1 and that its his first home race.

Seeing the way even the race directors and stewards have a plaque for Zhou so that he could put his car in parc ferme on the main straight and then seeing the fans cheering him on despite not scoring and then him falling on his knees crying. This is why we love sports and this sport, and this is for the little boy who was in grand stand 20 years ago and then left his home, his family and every single thing he knows to pursue his dream, and here he is achieving it
My thoughts exactly.
Honestly my favorite part of this whole weekend. You could see how much it meant to him, and what an incredible feeling it must be to look back at being a kid in the stands at the first Chinese GP 20 years ago, and driving in that same GP today.
