When lando was quicker last year, we never made excuses like the car better suited lando or similar shit. The popular consensus was that piastri's inexperience was resulting in worse tyre wear and pace. Piastri has worked on these issues and is now just as quick while being consistent. Why is it that people are making excuses like the car suits piastri better instead of just admitting that piastri has made a big jump.

That hat is certainly something.

That was a great race. So many great performances as well - piastri with the dominant win, russell dragging the fast but buggy merc to 2nd, gasly being ahead of several of the big guns for most of the race, Yuki making it into the points in just his 2nd red bull weekend and Haas in general nailing the strategies with their drivers also executing.

The wheel to wheel racing was also insane. These modern cars are good for racing but now need wider circuits. The old circuits are unfortunately too narrow for these behemoths.

Piastri is the real deal

Yuki justifying his 'promotion', being so close to Verstappen

Verstappen under investigation. Could become interesting.

For Andrea's sake, I hope this is true. Or else he will have a lot of egg on his face trying to explain how his team fumbled a WDC with the best car and two top drivers

She was walking after the crash so I am hopeful that they are keeping her just for observation.

Yeah I also watch the F1TV feed and I see 2 reasons why McLaren didn't go for that.

1. RB in 2013 had internal demarcation between the drivers. Vettel was number 1 and Webber number 2.
2. McLaren want to treat the drivers 'equally'. They don't have the stones like Red Bull/Mercedes do to execute the best strategy and then handle any driver fallout later. Even when said strategy is justified because it is the best outcome for the team.

Sparks from the plank and floor hitting dry grass. It rained today so the grass is damp and hence no fires today

This was one of the best victories for Max

McLaren in a perfect catch 22

Yeah but they know he has less than 2 hours in the car. How do they expect him to nail it in one go. They could have given him the new softs for run 1 and then depending on how he did, they could have chosen to go again with new tyres.

Max knows he has earned that pole. No wonder he is happy

How the hell has max pulled that! That red bull looked a handful even in his hand throughout the weekend but somehow the madlad has done it

I blame red bull. Why not give him 2 runs with the new softs. Better to reach Q3 with only one new set than to not reach Q3 at all

Yuki noo

Too much fire

Nope. I don't hate anyone.

You just condone members of your government hating vast groups of people by voting for them. Doesn't seem like the actions of a loving person

Why. Every teammate since his Renault days has outperformed him
