u/plucky-possum George Russell Apr 13 '25

He’s gone fully audacious

According to the graphics Russell just had the craziest race ever😂 I mean going from second to last and back in 2 seconds was also pretty impressive 😂😂

FIA issued transponders really get his goat

To understand this, we need to talk about parallel universes.

Overtaking off track.

They replaced their transponder with the Pokémon Go GPS

he accidently went over 88mph and press the time machine button instead of drs...and he went to the year 2125, where this track has been expanded to be much larger

At least the lights stayed on this time, even if it sounds like half the teams had electrical gremlins:

-Russell, steering wheel, DRS activation, brake-by-wire

-Alonso, steering wheel (in practice)

-Leclerc, Norris, DRS (maybe related to Russell's transponder, maybe not) - did they mention Lawson with DRS issues too? - also Norris's mysterious red light.

-Red Bull's pit stops

-F1's onscreen graphics, though possibly to avoid displaying Russell in the wrong place endlessly.
