Welcome

Hello everyone and welcome to the Canadian Grand Prix Weekend thread.

Details about this race can be found here.

Sessions

This thread will cover all the sessions this weekend, so that’s all 3 practice sessions, qualifying, and the race.

We will monitor how this goes to see if we need more granularity.

Spoilers

The rules around spoilers are not yet in place, therefore we won’t be enforcing anything around spoilers this weekend. This goes beyond the scope of this thread too.

If you do not want spoilers, please do not look in this community this weekend.

The aim is to have a finished set of rules ready by mid next week.

    Seems like lemmy.ml is having some trouble pushing out comments to other instances from this post 😬 Many comments here are missing on other instances

    Might make sense to host these threads on a less overloaded instance?

      The session times do not match with weekend warmup because F1TVs coverage of practice sessions now includes a 15-minute preshow. 13:30, 17:00, and 12:30 local time are the correct times.

        I can’t see red text on my browser, but looking at the source it looks like they used backticks ( ` ) for code blocks.

        Test

          Grey code block
          

          red code block

          I didn’t realise the different code block implementations would give different colours. Very useful!

    Thanks to the mods for making this thread!

    Hoping for a good race, though it’s bit late in the evening for us Europeans

    Anyone aware of any communities similar to r/motorsportsreplays or r/motorsportssteams?

      Notice

      We shall be banning discussion around F1 piracy in this community next week.

      We will not take any actions until the rules are posted in their entirety in the sidebar.

      I’m not aware of any communities yet, but I’d recommend taking a look at SportSurge. Easy enough to use, and should have streams for F1 sessions.

        Yeah I’m aware of sportsurge, can never seem to find an F1 Live commentary stream though.

          Interesting, I’ve used it for years for full seasons and never missed a session. Just be sure to use the new V2 version. Best of luck!

    Alonso has to lift and coast, and de La Rosa in the Spanish broadcast hints that he has to save fuel due to the high race pace.

    Lewis is keeping up with Max. Oh wait as I type this he lost a couple tenths. Still, great pace of the Merc.

    I’m liking these liquipedia pages, so much context. Plus the session times posted there.

    Is this the “official” race discussion thread? I couldn’t find anything on my instance so came here.

    Great race start by the way. Should be a good one. Enjoy!
