2019 F-1 Racing schedule

dragondick

The time limit for each F-1 race is 2 hr.   Due to too many incidents which required Safety Car on the track which took up quite a bit of time and therefore before the race can finish, time is up.

Anyway.  Vettel got lucky, had a pit stop at the right moment and leap frogged several leading cars, including his team mate LeClerc.  Subsequently, several incidents + safety car which all played into the hands of Vettel.

I might post again if my prediction is not correct which I doubt.

The Formula-1 event is the 2019 Russian F-1 GP, to be held this coming Sunday!

Will keep you all posted.

1.  LeClerc snatched another pole, his 4th in a row.  Basically, he established himself as the #1 Ferrari driver.
a.  If Ferrari MGT doesn't get the message and treat LeClerc the way a #1 driver deserves, they will regret it soon.
b.  The Ferrari exit door now has Vettel's name on it!

2. The starting order will be LeClerc, Hamilton, Vettel, Bottas.   Max should be 4th, but due to engine change, he lost 5 places.

3.  There will be live telecast at 0705 but I suggest you are properly seated by 0700 or you will miss the first corner.

The 2019 Russian F-1 GP has just finished.  It was Hamilton, Bottas, LeClerc.

For a change, Vettel drove a brilliant race, but DNF!

The 2019 F-1 will end in 5 more races.  The upcoming race is the one in Japan in the coming weekend.

For some reason, the F-1 Japanese GP has always been a wet race, and rain master will excel, e.g. Hamilton and Max.  The unknown factor is LeClerc, how good is he in the rain?

We know LeClerc is quick in the dry, can he handle the rain.  If he wants to be a motor racing legend, he needs to prove that he is good both on dry and wet!

I really have to pat myself on the back for my foresight,  a typhoon is threatening Japan's Suzuka Circuit where the Japanese F-1 GP would be held, there will be changes to timing of various programs.

Of course, it will be a wet race!    May even be a race cut short by rain!

As the 2019 F-1 season is drawing close to an end, I visited my #2 posting of this topic,  I got all of my predictions right on too!

Please note the official qualifying session and race will be on the same day!

I forgot all about the time difference between Japan and Canada, and that the Japanese GP started and finished while most Canadians were still sleeping.

As a result, I didn't even get to watch the race.

The result:  Bottas, Vettel, Hamilton.

Per news report, Bottas overtook Vettel at the start and led from start to finish.  LeClerc and Max were involved in a tuzzle and both DNF.

After the win, MB secured 2019 F-1's Constructors' Championship!

Looks like MB, in addition to securing 2019's Constructors' Championship after winning the Japanese F-1, has a significant chance of winning the Drivers' Championship as well!
