@keithcollantine.bsky.socialSome very sketchy near-misses in this session with drivers clipping around turns 18 to 20.
@keithcollantine.bsky.socialAll year it's felt like the television director is ignoring developments happening live, like then when they cut away from watching Russell get his car back on track.
@racefans.netPoints Williams scored in last year's Azerbaijan Grand Prix: 15
Points Williams has scored so far this season: 11

@keithcollantine.bsky.socialGasly gets a five second time penalty for pit lane speeding, as he did in Monaco...
@keithcollantine.bsky.socialLousy power units, dismal circuit, 57 processional laps, track limits rows, winner decided by a VSC period which was caused by the guy who's only got a drive because his dad owns the team.

@racefans.netHamilton was the only driver to have scored points at every round this year but his brake failure has ended that.
@keithcollantine.bsky.socialYet another new-build F1 track where track limits aren't enforced properly and we get drivers cutting them all over the place at the start.
Pathetic.
@racefans.netThe 2026 Spanish Grand Prix is go!
Antonelli cuts turn one and five, Verstappen cuts turn one.
@keithcollantine.bsky.socialFerrari opting for the 'how can we stop them clashing on the first lap again?' strategy.
