What makes the Baku Qualifying session feel like a Formula One Bermuda Triangle?
Bus up bankers. Simply lovely Vakers. Or I guess what is yabba Yabba dabba doo, Venkas. Yabba dabba
doo. There you go. Simply lovely. I was like, what was that ironic? Like who are we who are we talking about here?
That's Isaac Hadjar saying, Simply lovely bro. Yeah. Bro. Yeah. Bro, broke my wrist 'cause I jerked my my big dick off too hard, bro. I'm back.
Back, bro. Back. Well, I mean, I feel like we just watched a replay of twenty I'm like, are we stuck and are we back in 2025? Like, Lando's making mistakes, Kimmy's bot Kimmy's making mistakes, George's fast as fuck, uh, Oscar's fast as fuck, and Leclerc's fast as fuck. Yeah. Uh this feels like uh this it feels like um From maybe like Baku, like we we entered like a a different dimension.
Yeah.
And where like Oscar chokes and uh Lando's impenetrable and doesn't make mistakes. And now we're back. Like we can't now we're back.
It's undid That's how it
feels.
It it it it undid Baku is just like this vortex. Like it's just like the Bermuda triangle. It's a b the Bermuda Triangle of Formula One. Things happen there that never happen anywhere else. It's what I said with Gunther. I said there's always something goes down at Baku. And I also said that Kimi Antonelli would fucking be that this might be the first falter of Kimi Antonelli. And this is really kind of like the first real fuck up that he. He's had all year.
Yeah, that wasn't a uh you know, an engine blow up or something like that. No, he just completely botched it and then He compl like it was like one of those it's not like You know There's the um There's the wall hits where you like just went too fast and you hit the wall. Yeah. But this wall hit was it's like one of those like you took your eye off the ball and you just you just you hit the you hit the inside of the turn. Yeah. That's all that always now let me explain this. That always looks so stupid. I know it's I know the racing is hard, but like when I fail in the video game, it's usually not because it's usually you you usually usually don't hit the corner on the inside. You usually are going too fast, you didn't break soon enough, and you just go flying.
That's how m But that just seems like a lack of um focus uh taking your like uh taking your eye off the ball a little bit.
Yeah, I mean it's a couple it's it's it's either maybe a lack of focus or also just maybe like him trying to like Go too aggressive. Like it's an aggressive if you're cutting the corner too harshly, then there's like an aggressive element to it. And like for him, here's the thing. He does that shit in Q three? I'm like, sure, he's going for it. Like that car had so much pace. Right. I mean, George was eight tenths up on everyone else in Q three. I mean, that car had pace. So the idea that he was like pushing that hard in Q3. Corner cut in Q one when you have the rocket ship of rocket ships, especially at this track. With a new engine, you know. You're getting
you're getting through Q one. So what are you doing like just what are you doing? Right, and he was through. He g actually got through, even though he crashed. He was like so he was already through. Yes. That's hilarious. This laugh. He didn't even mean that laugh. But I think what these guys is is they're they're they're dialing in for later laps is what they're trying to do.
He's trying to like you know, okay, here's my practice run, practice run. Let's like get it so that like come come go time. I think the reality, maybe what this was, is that George looked like he was having the upper hand the whole weekend. Like F P one, F P two, F P three. He uh Kimmy also had the the the the failure, so he didn't get as much practice time in. And I think maybe he was feeling a little bit of like George has the edge. on me this weekend. So like let me really go for it and quality and maybe I can pip him in Q three and he's doing aggressive runs in Q one and then all of a sudden, baby you're starting sixteenth. Now
But who cares? Who but if I'm him and I'm just a rational human being, this is why I'm not a formula well, I'm not even that rational, but m more rational than he is.
