Good information here if you are new to F1.

Clipping or de-rating is when the engine is at its max powerband in the gearing ratio and the battery suddenly disengages, so the engine experiences sudden power loss. This can present interesting challenges and even sudden engine failure.

If the MGU-K [Motor Generator Unit Kinetic] (which is the part of the engine that regulates the hybrid input from the battery) fails, the driver will be down 150 hp for the rest of the race. Ricciardo won Monaco in this exact situation. If the MGU-H [Motor Generator Unit Heat] fails, the battery cannot regenerate and the driver will also be down 150 hp, but with a limited amount left in the battery usable.

That was a massive wreck. It truly is amazing that Yuki was able to just hop out and walk.

Any Vegas odds on who will push the other driver off at Turn 2/3 during the start tomorrow?

There's usually a "first to retire" or "number of classified cars (finishers?)" and those are fun to throw a few dollars at.

What a start by Max

I don't think he could have pulled that off any better.

This doesn't feel like the first time this season that Max has tried to go long. Pretty sure it worked last time, too.

Only Lap 21 though.

Well that was beneficial for Max

Very entertaining race. Was nice to see the Ferraris with more race pace. Sure wish they would figure things out consistently.

Williams has become a force to be reckoned with. I hope they stay competitive this season.

Looks like Red Bull have found some pace. Norris getting the pass on Piastri was huge. We might have a 3 way title fight brewing.


Piastri has been nearly perfect on the season. But I feel McLaren thinks Norris has a higher ceiling. So they aren't ready to push all in on a driver for the championship. But if they mess around too long, Max Verstappen will make them pay.

I really liked the commentators today. They didn't appear to carry any bias, unlike the way it feels that Croft and Brundle do. Especially Brundle.

I've been watching F1 TV this year. No crofty or brundle has been nice.

There are so many commentators out there that actually know racing. It's unfortunate that those 2 still occupy much of the airwaves.

-Overall a pretty good race. Pirelli bringing the softer compounds certainly helped.

-The start was great IMO. Max is a an excellent driver and today proved he can still make things happen without ****ing everything up in turn one. I think that largely has to do with the unforgiving track though. One of my complaints with some of the newer or street tracks is the amount of runoff there is. Take Miami, there's no real punishment for running wide or sticking a wheel out when you know you've got ample concrete beyond the track limits.

-Imola was great today because it forced the drivers to stay as close to track limits as possible. Gasly went wide and straight into the gravel. It could have easily cost him a retirement. I'd like to see more tracks try and make it more difficult to run wide. Either with grass, gravel, or tighter barriers. I think it really improves the overall racing and competition.

-Also Ferrari had a decent strategy today! Really pleased with Hamilton's drive. 12th to 4th is impressive and he seemed to be better settled in the car than his previous races.

-McLaren must have been thinking Max is one lucky SOB to get to pit it under a VSC and SC.

-Wish Kimi could have had a better race. Being his home race and living less than an hour from the track is an incredible amount of pressure. Really stinks he couldn't at least finish the race.

I've been telling my family for years now I want a new "Cars" movie(s) based on Formula 1. Maybe this would help.
