If they don’t make Lando the P1 driver now if Max is ahead of both of them next race they are even dumber than we’ve already seen.

He is indeed! Great to see. Will be exciting to see what happens when they get within a second of Sainz.


If it hadn’t been used to fuck over Piastri as much, I would agree. It’s just a stupid saying they have hoping that their drivers never have to actually go head to head directly.


I doubt Antonnelli will even try to defend, but imagine the world where he actually keeps him behind him…


Indeed, this makes me suspect they’ll have enough pace to catch up to Verstappen in their last stint.


Damnit Nando, stop creating this kind of chaos


That Ocon pitted after the fact makes McLaren’s strategy seem even worse than it already did


They count in different circumstances, so why wouldn’t they?


They do ofcourse know the next lap they will put in, which is useful to know, but it does seem like they might lose track position because everyone got bunched up again.


“Theme from Jaws is starting to mix with Du-du-du-du…”


I just hope the stewards don’t decide what the consequences of all of this is after the race…


They finally got it for the grid line up! Good times!


Cadillac already hired the assistant he harassed, so that would seem very unlikely.
Like others stated, if it’s not someone I’m close to, I wouldn’t want to do it. If my partner however asks me for help, being able to help her and solve a real problem she has, brings me tremendous joy.


The McLaren team have positioned themselves as the arbiter of fairness. If it’s about being fair and they thought Piastri did nothing wrong they should have restored fairness too.
Lando did nothing unusual wrong but from replaying his pit stop a bit, it looked like he didn’t drive neatly in the lines, which can cause problems for the mechanics. Though if someone has the true top-down view from that I’m happy to change that view.
Ofcourse the problem is their arbitrary interference in the race which seemingly seems to benefit mostly one driver when it comes to the 2025 WDC.


Hadjar getting a P10? Quite neat.


I guess this is where Lando will need to show his mental strength because even if he had nothing to do with this, it’ll make him seem incapable of winning by overtaking.


I hope that Hadjar can keep the third place, but this also opens P4 for Albon against Russell with a damaged car.


While his starts are more variable I’m not sure that’s a mental strength thing. I guess it could be but in Spa you could for example hear him complain about his lack if energy as the reason for why Oscar overtook him. He can’t acknowledge in the moment he made several mistakes. Which I don’t think is abnormal, but from the outside it looks as though if he can’t have that external cause for his problems, he spirals into performing worse than when he does have the external excuse.
Piastri is in red as well.
