Saints played last night and won 31-12!!

 

Verstappen drops a place in the Sprint Race after getting a 5 second penalty for going too quick under virtual safety car.

 

Just caught the last few minutes of the England v Kiwis.
England hit the post with a penalty then missed a drop goal with the last kick.
Kiwis win 22-24

Pissing with rain now in Brazil for qualifying.

 

I don’t think qualifying will happen today…

 

Qualifying postponed to tomorrow morning.

 

Perhaps this result confirms that the Boks.are some way ahead of the rest. England will no doubt raise their game against them, but in the end Boks power will prove too much!!

 

Ooops..... Sorry!

 

Did you Tom it!?

 

Qualifying now at 10:30, race at 3:30.

 

UK or Brazil time? Edit: Just seen it's UK time.

 

Yep, 7:30am in Brazil, so I'd guess Max won't be playing his sim tonight...

 

Well at least it’s happening.

 

Actually watched the last two races for the first time since 2021 and I see Max is still a dangerous ****?

Just stuck quali on and is there any chance the race doesn't happen today?

 

If the rain gets so bad the race may not happen. But think is likely it will.

And yep, Max is still a mad ****. I didn’t watch much after 2021. Got back into this season.

Next season should be a cracker though, and 26 with the new engine.

 

Lewis out in Q1. He’s a bit **** at the moment.

 

The car is ****. Whatever upgrades they brought in a few weeks ago have failed abysmally.

 

It’s not great, but he’s not driving well right now.

 

I wonder with Lewis and Mercedes that they can't wait to part ways, I think the ****ness is both making statements, as in Lewis not driving to his potential and also I think they are shafting him with performance.
