love when a car fucks a lap and then goes into the pit lane like. oh actually i was always gonna do that haha. i'm pitting anyway. nothing to see here i was just in the gravel bc i Like it there. almost as much as i like the pit lane. which is where i am going and always was.
you know what love that luggi is absolutely fighting stay ahead OH MY GOSH HE SPUN i was gonna sa OH MY GOSH CONTACT ALL OVER THE PLACE okay i was gonna say i love luggi fighting like hell to stay ahead of cars who are not even in his battle on diff pit strategies WHAT THE HECK THAT CAR IS PRACTICALLY STATIONARY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD OH MY GOSH THE BONNET IS PEELING. did this post have a point? oh yeah. luggi is a menace as soon as you gibve him a car to give him a car to be a menace to. they just played a replay of his spin so here's a screenshot
oh and now there's a replay of the peeling bonnet so here's a pic of that
he had to slow right down because it came up so high he Could Not See
bmws top 7 finishers *nauseous emoji*, *throwing up emoji*
podium: wittmann, da costa, martin
cars just kept slowly dnfing. di resta crashed out lap 1 and then tomczyk's car threw up smoke behind sc and then molina and mortara came into pits and never came out (because of lap1 damage?), and wickens i didn't even NOTICE, and then green spun off (race-ending) and then paffett and dani went through the gravel (non- race-ending). what the hell
my favorite part was the three-way battle that had tambay make a steller move up the middle and then also had eki make a real good sneakpast taking advantage from behind
they had this slowzone thing that i didn't understand for most of the time but essentially they can call a vsc in a certain section of the track instead of the whole thing and they call it a slow zone
luggi dani and eki out of the points what are we even doing here
tho luggi did do some fun crimes! he was one of the later pitters and a whole queue got stuck behind him and he was fighting them like ht wasn't on a different strat
my favorite part was when everything happened at once--luggi, while fighting random battles, got spun, and then the previously stoppered-by-luggi pack started banging and then we cut to a shot of tomczyk crawling down the main straight because he can't see out the front because his bonnet is peeling
eki got in the points so thank fuck we got SOMETHING out of this weekend
podium: da costa, farfus, spengler
yes it was another beamer dominance--they finished top five. deeespicable.
side note: is da costa's full last name felix da costa? i'm pretty sure yes. but idc that's too long
oh it was da costa's first win. gg's i guess.
lots of rubbing racing this race. not too much outright carnage but SO much door-to-door. banging. overtakes that they are WRENCHING out. fun stuff
omg dani FLEW at one point. that was crazy. and then he just kept driving! (well, he drove to the pits, but i was still surprised he even kept going at all.)
