Albon & Ricciardo collide Lap 1 of the 2024 Japanese F1 Grand Prix

Alex Albon and Daniel Ricciardo collide at Suzuka Circuit at the 2024 Japanese Grand Prix at Turn 3. Viewed from Grandstand B1

[@chocomonstaar]

I watched the race on Sky Sport, but didn't realise there was such an elevation change here. They should really show this in the official camera angles.

[@LiquidTurbo]

Yes the elevation change is huge

[@SwingAxleLover]

@@LiquidTurbo Is the whole pit straight downhill?

[@LiquidTurbo]

@@SwingAxleLover yes it is, downhill into turn one and the Esses climb hill up till Degner 1. How do I know? From going on a track walk of half the track.

[@greenbabies99]

@@LiquidTurboalso since theres a bridge on the track thats goes over

[@LiquidTurbo]

@@greenbabies99 yes I’m well aware

[@breeze5387]

neverr realised how insane the altitude change is, its incredible

[@LiquidTurbo]

It’s not really reflected properly in TV broadcasts

[@Jamtoastbutterlovely]

The camera angles on TV are so bad! Why do we not get an angle like this!? Thanks for uploading!

[@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044]

Great seats!

[@Adam-vx6to]

What section of the B grandstand was this? Looks like great seats

[@LiquidTurbo]

B2 - highly recommended! Go up high if you can

[@Adam-vx6to]

@@LiquidTurbo nice! Considering those seats for next year

[@LiquidTurbo]

@@Adam-vx6to you’ll love it

[@Adam-vx6to]

@@LiquidTurbo I had the cheap seats this year and they were pretty good, but I'd imagine B grandstand is even better.

[@seamusblack5876]

Fantastic viewing spot

[@LiquidTurbo]

Indeed. Highly recommended!

[@mushieslushie]

Trying to look for seats for next year, looks like you had a screen there that wasn't on? That sucks.

[@LiquidTurbo]

I’m sorry?

[@dorukartan7588]

@@LiquidTurbo he is saying at 0.14 there is a television screen that isnt on and its bad for you to not be able to see the whole race

Nisiquiera en videojuegos me doy cuenta de los cambios de las altura que tienen los circuitos

[@endeavor44]

Here before this blows up

[@LiquidTurbo]

The only thing blowing up is Ricciardo’s career

[@Boomhauersdad]

@@LiquidTurbo people always wanna bring people down

[@LiquidTurbo]

@@Boomhauersdaddidn’t realize stating a fact (that this incident isn’t great for his career) is “bringing people down”

[@Jonpoo1]

That’s what they said in the Williams garage.

[@Carl_za.]

The elevation change is crazyy in real life

[@LiquidTurbo]

Indeed

[@kevinrafisugiharto5380]

Wait... Is that Japanese commentator is Pierre Kitawa?

[@LiquidTurbo]

You tell me!

Danny just didn't leave the space for Alex. Clearly Ricciardo's fault here 🤷‍♂️

[@han00709]

I mean theres a driver on hes left. He was trying give the other driver space but didnt noticed alex because he was in his blindspot. Another thing Alex should back out instead trying to get side by side with danny (In my opinion its a racing accident)

[@SkyDecks]

@@han00709Even though Ricciardo didn’t mean to turn in to Albon he still did it and it is his fault. Albon did also try to back out but was pushed on to the grass

[@LiquidTurbo]

Wasn’t it classified as a proper racing incident, mate?

[@Reaper-lr8pq]

@@LiquidTurbo I forgot to add that it is my opinion 🤷‍♂️

[@han00709]

​​@@SkyDecks I mean he didn't technically turned on him he's was on the racing line and Alex wasn't. He just didn't noticed Alex was there but in the end it just a racing accident.

[@fakecontent5950]

safety car appeared fast wow

[@LiquidTurbo]

Medical car drives behind cars on the first lap for fast response to any lap 1 incidents

[@alangaming2003]

Erm that the medical car

OMG...the sound is terrible, sounds like Fiat 500 driving by. Anyone old enough to remember blown diffuser sounds!

But a penalty for Ocon
