Losers team commentary: Bahrain grand prix 2023

lots of Alpine mechanics saying "I got a penalty"

BIGGEST LOSERS IN BAHRAIN

    1st  |  Barge Bored  |  76  |  A well-timed Boost so early in the season

    2nd  |  Tardi Minardi  |  42  |  A decent haul of Track Points plus a close Fast Forecast

    3rd  |  Pierre Ghastly  |  41  |  Biggest Track Pointer but didn't Boost

    4th  |  Hot Hot Hovercraft  |  39  |  Strong Track Points result

    5th  |  Mancunian Badboy Racing  |  39  |  Again, did well with Track Points

    You can see the full scores for this race on the data page.


    TOP TRACK POINTS IN 
    BAHRAIN

    🔢 Piastri's calamitous start in F1 helped Pierre Ghastly to 41 Track Points. Should have Boosted but, hey, we're only just getting warmed up at the start of the season.

    🔢 Hot Hot Hovercraft and Mancunian Badboy Racing had similar Oscar assistance, and they earned 39 Track Points each

    🔢 Barge Bored and Tardi Minardi each bring in 38 Track Points, the former taking an impressive extra advantage from a Boost Button (see below) thereby topping the overall points in Bahrain

    See the full Track Points on the data page

    PODIUM OF SHAME

    At each race, the bottom three Track Pointing teams will be forced into an Ejector Seat at the next race in the season. Here are those teams and the changes we're forcing them to make. Teams on this list can still Eject again before the next race.

    😳 Oh no  |  Ejected: Aston Martin [D]  |  Replacement: Alpine [G]

    😳 Strolling the Ranks  |  Ejected: Yuki Tsunoda [B]  |  Replacement: Oscar Piastri [F]

    😳 Doughnut Zebra (🍩🦓 ) |  Ejected: Valtteri Bottas [E]  |  Replacement: Oscar Piastri [F]
    .
    Team pages will be updated soon.


    EJECTOR SEATS IN 
    BAHRAIN

    💺  All the teams are new, so there were no Ejector Seats in Bahrain


    BOOST BUTTONS IN BAHRAIN

    🔴 Top Booster: Barge Bored

    🔴 Pretty poor Boosters: Skid Blocked, 🍩🦓


    FAST FORECASTS IN 
    BAHRAIN

    Grid Forecast  |  Perfect = Gasly  |  Close = De Vries, Piastri

    Start Forecast  |  Perfect = Hulkenberg, Zhou  |  Close = Alonso, De Vries, Magnussen, Ocon, Perez, Stroll, Tsunoda

    Race Forecast  |  Perfect = Norris  |  Close = Hulkenberg, Zhou

    🔮 Perfect guess: Strolling the Ranks (best Forecaster of the race)

    🔮 Close guess: Tardi Minardi,  What Verstappened x2, 🍩🦓

    🔮 Wrong guess: everyone else


    PITLANE PUNTS IN 
    BAHRAIN

    🎲 There were no Pitlane Punts in Bahrain due to it being the start of the season. We'll aim to launch our first Punts of the season this coming weekend.
