There was some weird circumstances which happened in practice 2 where both Ricciardo and Piastri were parked parallel from each other on the track. When I tuned in they were already this way and a red flag had just been put on the P2 session. Didn't know what had happened until they mentioned about his hand being broken.

"Daniel Ricciardo has been ruled out of the Dutch Grand Prix due to a broken hand sustained in a crash during Friday practice, handing Liam Lawson his F1 debut with AlphaTauri in the process."

A Crash that injured Daniel Ricciardo's hand and right now he will be change with Liam Lawson for the remainder of the Grand Prix,

https://youtube.com/shorts/nTpjlcX6ezg?si=i4NOC2TEqfsovv-n

It was really unfortunate that Daniel Ricciardo got his Hand injury Well it is a coincidence and a debut for Liam Lawson to be driving in the Alpha Tauri this is his chance to prove himself but surely he doesn't have any training or preparation for this, for sure this could be a good thing for him if he does well

It was really a sad thing for Daniel Ricciardo to be injured in the 2nd Practice it was a sad thing for sure Liam Lawson is ready to replace anyone who is injured in the RedBull or Alpha Tauri, and for sure the 3rd driver or the replacement driver is ready for this but I sure wish he got training for this because it is a coincidence that Ricciardo got injured,

but in the following qualifier Lando Norris is looking great and Max Verstappen is doing his best in getting this win in his home Turf I think he will not let this opportunity slide for sure and get this win in a dominant fashion,

I was so busy with other things that I completely forgot about the F1 and yeah because of the Summer break as well I got bored with it but upon returning I was surprised that Daniel Ricciardo got out back because of a hand injury on the Practice, to be replaced by Liam Lawson and looking at the 1st race of Liam Lawson on the 3rd Practice he was on the 18 places, then on the Qualifying  he was drop to the bottom because he got a red flag,

DUTCH GRAND PRIX 2023 - QUALIFYING RESULT

For sure the thing that Carlos Sainz did to Oscar Piastri needs to be investigated when he is going outside the pits and Oscar Piastri is going straight Carlos Sainz just gets into his way, another incident for Carlos Sainz and Oscar Piastri indeed, for sure there is something that Carlos Sainz doesn't like about Piastri for sure back on their recent clash, Q2 eliminated was Liam Lawson, Valtteri Bottas, Kevin Magnussen, Esteban Ocon, and Zhou Guanyu, then the start of Q3 Logan Sargeant finds the barrier and brought out the red flag, then Charles Leclerc got the Yellow flag all of a sudden, and finishing the Qualifying they though that Lando Norris will be on the 1st position and because both the McLaren 1 and 2 are in the 1st and 2nd position until Max Verstappen got his time, then the last result on the qualifying was

1st) Max Verstappen
2nd) Lando Norris
3rd) George Russell
4th) Alexander Albon
5th) Fernando Alonso

There was no shock at the end result, Max got the win as always, no matter what happened during the race, he kept his lead and just won it as expected. I am guessing that as long as he finishes the races with no crash, he will just keep on winning. This makes it 10 for the season if I am not wrong, and that breaks the record Vettel had, and that's another record Max broken. Unless something major happens, this dude could get to 8 titles as well, he will have just 5 left after this, and 2026 is the season big changes will happen, if Red Bull can stay even just a bit decent during that time, I bet that he will break that 8 title record without a doubt, he is unreal.

Truth be told he will surpass Vettel having the record with the next race.
This one was a real mess from beginning to end with Leclerc retiring his car from an earlier incident. And Perez getting a penalty from the restart of the remaining 5 laps to conclude the race after the red flag from the collision into the barrier.
Gasly moving into the podium place due to that 5 second penalty to Checo moved him out at the checkered flag of getting a third place finish.

Overall, no one can say it was a boring race. Because if you saw it that way you are certainly not watching the race and just going by the podium and finishing places.

Wet or Dry I think it is also the Drivers decision when to go to the pit that keeps this Dutchman alive and with no crash for sure he is still simulating what he is going to do That is why Max Verstappen is a different racer for sure Compare to the rest of the drivers we have now, he is breathing and eating racing all they all thinking about it 24/7 because he will never be this good if he doesn't think about it for sure, I feel like he will surely reach the goals of the past champions or even surpass the likes of Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton, and for sure if there are Max Verstappen in the F1 Lewis Hamilton will not get his 9th championship for sure,

I thought that my eyes were deceiving me when I saw Peire Gasly on the Podium instead of Sergio Perez on the Podium, but upon reviewing what has happened and confirming it with your post getting back on the divers It was Sergio Perez  penalty deduction that have cause I'm but for me it was the heated of the matched and I think he still did a great job with his RB,

Off to Monza for the Italian Grand Prix but can Verstappen avoid the track's curse this weekend?

[Koal-84]

According to the current weather forecast, there could be another rain race in Monza, and due to the high TOP speed values, the RedBulls are once again favourites. But in terms of TOP speed, which is very important in Monza, Ferrari and Mercedes are also close to RedBull. I am rather sceptical about Aston Martin and Alonso being able to repeat the good result, the Aston Martin is not one of the fastest cars on the straight.

Red Bull has as good as the nose in front with the DRS.

For sure that was a fan-made theory and we are not sure if that could also happen to him for sure it is just a coincidence that it could happen every time a driver could win this Season or year he will surely lose that race next season or year but let's see if Verstappen can cut the curse or he will be a victim of it this week in Monza, let's just hope that a Fatal crash won't happen,



https://racingnews365.com/ricciardo-provides-update-after-hand-operation

Updated to Daniel Ricciardo's condition, After Practice 2 of the Dutch Grand Prix Daniel Ricciardo suffered an injury when he saw Oscar Piastri in front due to a barrier collision so Daniel Ricciardo decided to intentionally crash his Alpha Tauri into the barrier but because he didn't let loose of the steering wheel he injured his hands in the process, and the X-rays revealed the extend of his injury and needed surgery the next morning so for sure Liam Lawson will still be driving Alpha Tauri this weekend and hopefully Daniel Ricciardo will come back in September for the Singapore Grand Prix

[Koal-84]

Who can replace Sainz right now ? I mean , sure , Ferrari will leave Sainz from next year , but who could join ? I don't see Ferrari taking another young driver just to let him go after 2 years again. In my opinion , they should let Sainz to finish his contract but on the same time Ferrari should be able to provide a decent car for both of their drivers because no matter what driver you put in that Ferrari right now , none of them will do great . The more we look at Ferrari the more we can see that they have real internal problems that fans and media don't know about them. 

It's still hard to say who will replace Sainz, Ferrari won't take on a top driver in the current situation just to have driven a Ferrari once. At the moment Sainz and Leclerc still have a contract until the end of 2024, I don't think Hamilton will drive his last two years in a Ferrari, the car doesn't meet his expectations and Sainz would have to be paid a lot.

So it's going to be difficult for Ferrari to get a good driver, Perez doesn't have a contract for 2024 yet, but there's no reason for either of them to do that. First and foremost, the Ferrari team needs to improve internally in all areas.

[Volgastallion]

What a bad luck for Daniel Ricciardo, when the luck seems to be shinny for him, he suffer this crash and the injury on his wrist. He was made a really good performance in the Alpha Tauri, now he lost again the seat and time to show he can be again in the F1 for the next season.

I hope to see him again in a good car in 2024, not in Alpha please.

Especially with their pitstops.
I remembered briefly while watching the race over this past weekend seeing the mishap by the pit crew forgetting what they were doing out there. Causing Leclerc not get his tyres on his car in time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5WGWXqoVNA
This was the extended version showing exactly what happened.
That is unacceptable for any team in the F1 to do. They have faster tyre changes during practice let alone during a live race.
You really can't blame the drivers for all the errors the Ferrari team has done to themselves this season.

[dothebeats]

What a bad luck for Daniel Ricciardo, when the luck seems to be shinny for him, he suffer this crash and the injury on his wrist. He was made a really good performance in the Alpha Tauri, now he lost again the seat and time to show he can be again in the F1 for the next season.

I hope to see him again in a good car in 2024, not in Alpha please.

Being in a good car and team would really be 50/50 as the wrist injury is a lot to be considered for the new team. Even though he heals by that time, it's possible that other teams would still refuse to give him a seat. He's a great driver and has become aggressive lately, albeit being on a car that is relatively slow compared to the rest of the teams. I think he'd be a great fit to Ferrari or even a second driver on Mercedes, but the chances are preeeeety slim.

You're right, but Ferrari's strategy has been very weak for years, either the wrong strategy or a strategy change too late. And as you say, you can't always blame the drivers. RedBull has invested years of training in the pit stops, Mercedes is also very constant with the pit stops, a mistake like in the last race, when Mercedes changed to the intermediates too late can happen, but with Ferrari this has been the negative standard for years.

Or Ferrari could always let Carlos Sainz stay at Ferrari if he can do well in the remainder of the season, which is hard for him to accomplish for sure if we look at the things that Charles Leclerc has already accomplished with Carlos Sainz's near collision with McLarens Oscar Piastri, and is viewing this as only Oscar Piastri's fault which in my opinion he was the one solely that needs to blame in that incident and not once but with the following Dutch Grand Prix the near Collision would happen again with Oscar Piastri yet again is not a mere coincidence,

As many have not noticed Carlos Sainz is not driving his SF-23 in Practice 1 of the Dutch Grand Prix, This is because the Ferrari is accustomed to giving a chance to newer drivers to get a feel of F1 and this time it is Robert Schwartzman's turn to likely get a change in the near future to be the next driver of Ferrari, Well Carlos Sainz is in good condition and not injured well this is just 1-time thing and after the Practice 1 Carlos Sainz will be back on the Practice 2, so yeah Sainz did compete in the Dutch Grand Prix,

Being in a good car and team would really be 50/50 as the wrist injury is a lot to be considered for the new team. Even though he heals by that time, it's possible that other teams would still refuse to give him a seat.

This kind of Injury  is pretty much common in the F1 world because if they can not take their hands on the wheel of the F1 car while they are about to Crash then it is likely injury for the Driver and for sure this is likely F1 team knows about because the crash on the barrier is pretty much common, and can surely happen, so for Ricciardo, it is really interesting if he can return or not, for this season,

[rdbase]

^^
Actually heard he was going to be out for the remainder of the season with a possible reshuffling again for him during the off-season. This is only speculation so far because it was an injury to a mid-season replacement driver in the first place so I would be surprised if we see him driving for Red Bull or Alpha Tauri next season.

Practice 3 is just an hour away so strap in for a day full of racing, as we wait for qualifying next up, to see if Ferrari can do anything worth mentioning come raceday on their home track:

[boltz]

Can McLaren produce a big surprise today in qualifiers ? So far both of drivers showed a good pace on Monza and McLaren is looking fast and stable. However ,if it happens , I would love to see Piastri taking the pole as that would kinda shock a lot of people even if the kid is a future world champ material.

Ferrari also have a good pace out of nowhere , but do they have a car ready for Sunday race pace ? Hard to tell to be honest.

Sure the injury of Daniel Ricciardo can surely lead him to be out for the entire season because there are many saying things like that but Ricciardo has said that he may be back in September maybe mid or the last week of September but it really got no assurance that he can race with that kind of injury, so likely we can see Liam Lawson for a long time with Alpha Tauri,

Sure I have also Waiting for the Qualifying and Skipping Most Practice run for a while now, I really don't know but I surely just looking at the results of the Practice, and watching the Qualifying was what I am doing right now Carlos Sainz is making a great comeback again on Practice 2, 3 and now in the Qualifying he was in the lead and Ferrari with the fans goes wild it was the 1st time Carlos Sainz is really doing it, and the Curse might be true,

Can McLaren produce a big surprise today in qualifiers ? So far both of drivers showed a good pace on Monza and McLaren is looking fast and stable. However ,if it happens , I would love to see Piastri taking the pole as that would kinda shock a lot of people even if the kid is a future world champ material.

Actually, it was Carlos Sainz that have led the Qualifying and shocked everybody if Max Verstappen lost in the Italian Grand Prix then we can surely say that the curse was really True that whoever won the last Italian Grand Prix will suffer a loss next season and it was happening but surely let's wait for the race t happen and how I wish that Max Verstappen will not make a fatal crash during the race,

It's as if they are not learning from their past mistakes. Sometimes a pit too early, oftentimes a pit too late and a change in strategy, too. They had a decently built car with decently capable crew, plus their drivers are also top tier when it comes to F1. Even if they have the fastest car of the season, they still fail to consistently win and post positive results.

For sure that was in the last couple of Grand Prix that Ferrari was struggling to make progress but right now it is a shocking thing that is happening right now Carlos Sainz is making an uproar right now and I really wasn't expecting that to happen It was always for Max Verstappen to make a lead always actually I was resting for a bit for an F1 news but after I am back in the F1 now I am seeing a different story right now and Ferrari might win in the Italian Grand Prix this season,

Can McLaren produce a big surprise today in qualifiers ? So far both of drivers showed a good pace on Monza and McLaren is looking fast and stable.

It was Ferrari's time to shine right now as Carlos Sainz shocked everyone by leading the Italian Grand Prix's Practice 1, 2, and now the Qualifying, this is the 1st for Carlos Sainz to make a lead like that it could have been the latest news that he would likely be given an ultimatum to improve that Charles Leclerc has given the full contract for the Ferrari team next season, so likely that was to prove that Leclerc is not the only one that is improving,

It's as if they are not learning from their past mistakes. Sometimes a pit too early, oftentimes a pit too late and a change in strategy, too. They had a decently built car with decently capable crew, plus their drivers are also top tier when it comes to F1. Even if they have the fastest car of the season, they still fail to consistently win and post positive results.

If you look at the Qualifying result Carlos Sainz is now leading not only the qualifying but Practice 2 and 3 as well, Here is the results and we could see a different winner in the following Race for sure,
