So was this is like... A Life Racing Engines in the way?

i was honestly waiting for a radio call telling bottas to slow down

zandvoort 2021 moment

Τhey haven't told him to do that because he had a penalty. That's why

It really makes you think how much he held back during his time with Mercedes

Opened comments and read this as he said it, can’t agree more.

It's like he's liberated now that he knows he's not gonna play second violin next season

Guy was a little emotional during the interview. Tears of joy. I'm so happy for him. Stoked to watch what he can do in the Alfa with some freedom to actually race.

That audio made me soar, great to hear

I think we will hear from James tomorrow if Bottas looks like he'll win the sprint race!

I'm done 🤣

@@alistairboyer To Start Last?

@@alistairboyer Sure, because Bottas has zero chance of winning the driver's championship, so if it's a choice between the two of them, they are going to pick Hamilton. Not sure why this is so difficult for people to understand. He's the second driver because he's an inferior driver - it's simple

@UCcMC3aWAT8tizKRk1ziTA5w so let me get this straight. Because he is an inferior driver, in some races he has to slow his pace down because the better driver, Lewis, cannot win otherwise. He needs to be given a break any now and then, amazing as he is. And that sounds 100 % fair .... right ?

Yup, Dio Mio Gio has got it.

Well it's only been 2 weekends so far that he's done that consistently. We'll see if he continues to get there (I hope so).

He's done it three times? Once in a wet qualifying which had a Williams on the front row as well. If anything he's been pretty disappointing

Nothing special since the track suits the car. So it’s at least the bare minimum in this case.

Lol so true

Not big deal we will be happy with Russel

Haha dutch comedian. Perez is much more embarrassing he is a real no2 driver but you won’t talk about that

or change the tyre early during the race :)

Everyone is talking about it, nice last name, might be in f1 next year

It's traditions. Gio always seems to switch on around Monza. Something about Italians and speeeeed

Rici get i pace because the tarck its not as technical like other Ther only 2 chicane, And 1 combinatiin low speed corner And 1 parabolic corner

Ricciardo has matched norris in high speed tracks like this with not much braking. Need to see him match norris on tracks with high braking and technicality

Italian Jesus' qualifying performance is positively surprising considering the car he's in. If only he could bring that performance to races too..

merc might sabotage his car later

Don't forget zandvoort, "I'm just playing around"

since when is running to win a troll? Bottas is doing what he knows how to do

@@eeeeeek"hey Valteri, remember when we put that new engine? Yeah, you didn't really need it."

@@eeeeeek lol on spot.... They are changing its engine so Bottas will start at the back of the grid on Sunday

Hope he does

@@JASON57FOOTBALL Really more than Bottas?

He started to shine 2 years ago. Shame his season at Red Bull went so poorly, I'm sure he'd be up there in top 3 if they gave him more time to get used to the car.

Lando new winner?

Daniel gave a tow to norris

Well said

@@robn2066 that doesn't diminish Norris' accomplishment, he proved to be fast before. He is consistent Same as Gasly, he's showing confidence in the car and in the team, and the team is retributing that confidence.

@@robn2066 not in the final run. Lando finished behind Ham and Daniel got (or maybe not, depending on the gap) tow from Gasly

Yeah! He’s really fighting for that seat! It’s the only one not confirmed yet.

@@baseballguy3741 technically seb too is not confirmed even though I think he will stay

@@baseballguy3741 He shouldn´t be fighting for it because he really put the work in, he gets faster and faster every year.

Don't forget Sainz, the Sunday driver.

This is the kind of track where you really see the car over the drivers because it's not particularly skill based for these drivers.

@@failtolawl also Ricardo driving style doesn’t work with the merc in slow speed corners cause him slowly punching the brake causes understear, so a track like this with like no slow speed corners helps

@@IrrIdk Turn 1 is pretty slow

@@IrrIdk Do you mean mclaren? Merc is mercedes and I don't think Ricciardo's ever been in a merc...

Hamilton´s stooge

i wonder if bottas will have to give way tomorrow.

yes true but what about Race ? Ocon won a race with Alpine and Bottas didnt with a Mercedes.. He deserv no more than Alfa

I agree, but where is he when it he when it really matters?

@@karanbraria93 he didn’t get the new engine yet

this is normal... Hamilton can bring a world champion title. Bottas cant bring nothing. If Perez win p1 and verstappen p2, nobody will be happy in Red bull

but if hamilton was out, and bottas was fight for pole position against Red bull drivers, of course Mercedes would be very very happy with the bottas pole position

in baku perez win and every body was sooooo happy in Red bull... because max was out

I don’t think they will fire Gio. They need at least one driver who understand their car, without Kimi next year, they don’t have any other options

I hope he does. A certain chinese driver is rumored to have a 30 000 000 $ sponsorship package to offer to Alpha. I hope they take him so that Bottas's car will be better.

contract are not base in just one race.

@@myco9253 Zhou?

It will be based on what happens in f2, if Zhou wins the title he'll be favourite to join alfa romeo the following season, he brings in a considerable amount of financial investment with him. Besides, giovinazzi's race pace has really been lacking for a second straight season (even after considering the the terrible team strategies)

@@mintdrunk2981 this isn't his first time being out qualified this badly. Considering his experience in F1 compared to someone like Albon who only had 2 seasons, he's underperforming badly

He gave max a tow in every lap, and when he asked for one, the team ignore him. I get it, max is fighting for the championship, but in monza the tow is at least a gain of .4 seconds. Max and Horner thank him at the end of qualy, so he actually did his job
