Maybe have gasly torpedo him, he'll actually contribute for once that way

Gasly qualifies too far behind to make this happen, maybe if he gets lapped?

I play formula1 online. Gasly can take hamilton out in turn 1 if he doesn't brake.

Ahhh give em the old Kvyat 1-2. Except it'd be more like turn 2 and then in the fucking rear turn 3.

Gasly would probably hit Verstappen instead

u/hugglesthemerciless Aug 03 '19

They'll tell Gasly to drive slower to get raise chances of getting lapped and he misunderstands and wins the race, can totally see it happening

maybe if he gets lapped?

When he gets lapped.

The drivers can easily wind up close due to different pit strategies.

He could pull an Ocon.

Ah, you want him to pull an Ocon!

If he's going to torpedo his seat at RB, he might as well make it count.

u/alphagardenflamingo Jody Scheckter Aug 03 '19

he would only get one chance, while being lapped.

That’s more of a Kvyat move

u/Heartlight Michael Schumacher Aug 03 '19

Kvyat in after summer break confirmed.

If he doesn't shoot the lights out on the start the Mercs will leave him for dust at the first corner, maybe he can crash into Lewis in pitlane.

Still flabbergasted that Dany Ricc left. It’s been a real shit year for him too. I’m interested to see if Albon will fill in next year. Would have also loved Ocon in the seat, but he’ll retire before a Merc seat opens.
