2025 British Grand Prix

Qualifying in 35 minutes. 2am start here. I may watch a little. Worked till midnight tonight.
 
Another flawless qualifying performance from Verstappen. All of his challengers flubbed the Club corner complex in one way or another, Max just executed better than them.

Could be rain in the forecast tomorrow, or at least cooler temperatures. The cooler it is the lesser McLaren’s tire advantage should be.
 
Who gets the axe first? Franco or Yuki?
I don’t think either Lawson or Hadjar even want the second Red Bull seat right now. They’d probably be wise to keep Yuki in there and hope he adapts eventually. That car just seems really tricky to extract performance from.

There’s no way Franco is any upgrade over Doohan at this point. Idk what Alpine are doing there, they’re just a cluster of an operation as a whole.
 
Okay, what should an ignorant viewer watch for today? It's rainy and windy and I have almost no indoor chores to catch up. My only previous F1 exposure is a few Monaco races, an event that didn't make me a fan of the series.

I Googled DRS, VSC, and sectors this morning and think I have those down. Ignoring powerplants and suspensions, are there other rules that differ from IndyCar that I'll need to know to enjoy today's race?

Thanks.

Just watch the damn thing and if you have further questions we're here to help.
 
Bortoleto was tiptoeing and spun anyways. It’s treacherous out there.

I’d be especially wary if I were on hards right now. Interesting tire choice.
 
I can’t remember the last time they actually raced in conditions that would’ve necessitated the full wet weather tires. They’re always hesitant to let them run anything other inters, and will run around behind the safety car until those conditions come back to them.
