when max dominates he DOMINATES it's not some pimp shit like what happens at mclaren

[mild crescent]

BROOOOO NOOOO LMAO, IS MCLAREN, BUT I BELIEVE ON FERRARI

[outer abyss]

Mercedes

[shy zodiac]

Max wins finally

[still moss]

yes because of max we are faster than yuki

[stiff bough]

most of the grid it kind of flip flops between weekends, so its hard to say definitively who is in what order

[main anchor]

Holy glaze

[pine salmon]

ill build the fucking car myself bro ferrari needs to work on that before i kms

[woeful lily]

And that's why I am being delusional let me have this 😂

[fleet coyote]

Lewis did well

[haughty marten]

McLaren
Mercedes in the cold
Red Bull with Max
Ferrari
Mercedes without cold weather
Williams
Racing Bulls
Sauber
Aston Martin
Red Bull without Max
Haas
Alpenis

[smoky notch]

||Abu Dhabi 2021-||

[viscid elbow]

Lewis out for Baku. Has just been diagnosed with ligma.

[humble valve]

can we shout out to alex albon and gabriel bortoleto and ISACK HADJAR FROM THE PIT LANE

[delicate edge]

you’re a gasly fan but you’re unaware that Alpine did not develop the 2025 car to entirely focus on 2026?

[sinful barn]

My new wallpaper to make smile everyday when i wake up

[lofty blade]

send me that

[still moss]

exactly he isn’t that far off lando it’s just catching up to piastri which i don’t see happening unless he dnf’s which he never does but if he keeps winning who knows 🤷‍♂️

[lunar river]

Send the raw image, i need this as my wallpaper too

[pine salmon]

another kinda movie fr

[tacit brook]

What is ligma?

[raw plaza]

lmfaooo\

[haughty marten]

I will say this

Max will be good in Interlagos and Vegas

Those will be tracks where he may be able to have a chance because of the straights and speed

[outer abyss]

Developing the 2026 car to increase safety cars per race 🔥🔥🗣️

[viscid elbow]

Ligma balls

[sick turtle]

Morning bros i am happy

[delicate edge]

we red flagging the season with this one 🗣️🔥

[sinful barn]

@lofty blade @lunar river

[rose aurora]

EXACTLY LET ALPINE COOK lowk gasly has insane potential but his shitbox of a car makes that not possible, there’s gotta be a reason why he decided to stay until 2028

[tacit brook]

Astonclass ☝🏻>Mclaren podium 🤡

[raw plaza]

now ollie bearman has 10 penalty points

[haughty marten]

I could see Max passing Lando

Passing Oscar tho will be tough unless there's misfortune

Either way I'm just glad the title fight isn't over yet

[smoky notch]

Woah so has Alex Dunne omg they could be race ban mates together 😍

[lunar river]

Gasly could be one of the best drivers on the grid and the guy has such a cool personality off track, he just doesnt have the car

[viscid elbow]

Fuck yeah boys … can’t believe I got someone with the old ligma gag in 2025!!!

[tawdry jackal]

Honestly he definitely could of if silverstone Spain fuck ups haven’t happend also Austria

[rose aurora]

YEAH FR HE IS MY GOAT i also believe that alpine is probably cooking for 2026 if gasly says that it could be a frontrunner in 2026

[outer abyss]

Bro has more wins than Ferrari this year 🔥🔥

[lunar river]

Whoever just skulled this, you need to be more delusional like us gang 🙏 otherwise you aint a real f1 fan

[tawdry jackal]

Unless both mclarens have 2-3 weekends where they dnf I don’t see it

[sinful elk]

Lancey my goat ❤️‍🩹

[smoky notch]

Can't see Max winning, I can barely see Lando winning the WDC nevermind Max

[crimson sphinx]

To think max will win the wdc needs ferrari level cope, but lando has a chance

[tawdry jackal]

Ngl if they didn’t swap Oscar wins the championship 95% gurantee

[haughty marten]

Max is not impossible. Just incredibly difficult

Lando tho...it's still very much in play

[outer abyss]

If Lando could actually race then maybe

[smoky notch]

Ngl I've just given up hope for Lando because he's made the same mistakes he made last year when chasing Max

[sick turtle]

For the sad Ferrari/haas fans, y'all just got to wait 1 year and you might be getting this goat

[devout fossil]

DU DU DU DU

[viscid elbow]

Austrian national anthem

[woeful lily]

For max I can be as delusional as ferrari fans

[lunar river]

Tbh I dont think lando will win, he clearly does have a chance, but his mentality just isnt there and he makes so many simple mistakes that were easily avoidable like canada this year, thats whats gonna make him lose, also I went to gilles Villeneuve a few weeks ago, the tire marks are still visible

[minor juniper]

this entire race was a fever dream

[sudden niche]

What is this mentality nonsense lmao. Lando is a fine driver perfectly capable of winning a WDC, in fact he was on track to keep it close till the DNF in Zandvoort, we would not be having this conversation otherwise.

Lando has said he wants to win the WDC his way. I respect him for that.

[pulsar ledge]

Who’s crying for Oscar

[smoky notch]

It's not about the mentality it's just how many mistakes he makes compared to Oscar

[outer abyss]

Lando needs to learn composure from Ocsar. If he keeps his current mentality up then he is definitely getting dropped in the future

[haughty marten]

The thing is

For Oscar to win the WDC, he just needs to minimize errors and avoid bad luck

For Lando to win WDC, he needs to be PERFECT

[lunar river]

Yes but have you seen the guy’s crashouts? I did explain myself a bit bad there but that wouldnt make me like him getting wdc with that attitude he had in 24 where he was just trashtalking max and lewis etc

[woeful lily]

And not comply with stupid team decisions

[scarlet moss]

Oscar and Lando are going to clash within the next few races

[dim pond]

Gonna be off their game then

[lost moat]

hes matured a LOT this season. i really hope that the championship title is close. this is coming from someone who did not like lando at all last year and the beginning of this year. he deserves a shot at a championship, but i wouldnt be mad if either of them won

[sudden niche]

What mistakes?? name one major blunder Lando has had outside of the Canada mishap. Very few.

We would not be saying this if he didn't DNF zandvoort

[smoky notch]

Saudi quali?

[outer abyss]

Maturity ❌ Better PR ✅

[haughty marten]

He's still leading by 31

No one is crying for him lol

[cunning needle]

man carlos is struggling 😔

[pulsar ledge]

Ok then, I heard they’re crying for Lando being favoured and being fav child

[scarlet vessel]

Lando has improved his mentality greatly since last year
But he would have to win the next 5 races to even be level with piastri if they continue with 1-2 finishes
So I do think it's very unlikely he wins this year

[viscid elbow]

Bahrain - missed start line

[sudden niche]

?? You make it sound like he's been whining since the season started. He's way more mature now, while still willing to be his usual more "emotional" self. That's fine?

The real mountain Lando has to climb is finishing ahead of Oscar every race weekend from here on out. THAT is the real issue here. I don't think it'll happen, but that's the ONLY thing it boils down to, not this mentality whatever

[teal swallow]

Y is no one talking about how good of a pace is Stroll having

[frank beacon]

Until Aston Martin made him pit and he finished dead last

[sick turtle]

Real response: I want Lando to win so people get mad throughout the winter break and see what shenanigans it brings. It sounds so interesting to think about. I don't mind piastri winning thought at all though it's just funny to think about Lando winning.

[plucky hearth]

Why does it look like Russel is going too slow on turns

[haughty marten]

In the end, nobody will remember the favoritism

They'll remember the trophies

[crimson sphinx]

Nah fanboys will

[oak shell]

we are always alive

[little garden]

Fr like tf were they doing

[tall moat]

But lando didn't have the pace today and he makes too many mistakes

[lunar river]

I feel like stroll’s love for the sport mightve came back a slight bit, we need more rain so his inner senna can come out and win all races😂

[pulsar ledge]

Fr

[smoky notch]

Like Lewis vs Nico

[sudden bough]

albono is the goat

[haughty marten]

I'm fine with either Oscar or Lando winning

But yeah Lando winning would be hilarious to see just because of all the haters coping and seething

[viscid elbow]

Luckily ChatGPT remembers all his mistakes this season better than you do:

1. Bahrain Grand Prix – Starting Position Penalty & Miscues

Norris received a 5-second penalty for stopping slightly ahead of his designated grid box—he misjudged his position at the start

He later described the race as "messy," citing unnecessary recovering efforts and overtaking mistakes that cost him a better finish

2. Saudi Arabian GP (Jeddah) – Qualifying Crash

In Q3, Norris crashed into the barriers at the high-speed mountain section, derailing his qualifying. This placed him in 10th on the grid, significantly compromising his race start and allowing Oscar Piastri to seize the championship lead

3. Canadian Grand Prix – Collision with Teammate

During the Canadian GP, Norris collided with his teammate Oscar Piastri while battling for position. He was deemed at fault for the incident and labeled the move as “clumsy.” This crash ended his race and a potential strong result

4. Imola (Emilia-Romagna GP) – Qualifying Mistakes

Norris admitted to mistakes during his final qualifying lap, stating:

“I made a lot of mistakes. Never good enough in my final lap in quali…Just not good enough.”

5. Montreal – Both Qualifying and Race Errors

A mid-season review blamed Montreal for a weekend full of mistakes. Norris struggled in Q3, only managing P7. In the race, a poorly judged overtake attempt saw him crash into barriers, nearly impacting Piastri’s race as well

6. Belgian GP – Lock-ups and Off-Track Errors

Difficult conditions in Spa led Norris to lock up at Turn 1 and go off at Pouhon, costing him valuable time. He acknowledged that pushing on tricky surfaces inevitably increases risk

[dim pond]

I like team mclaren just feel that they make really dumb decisions

[pulsar ledge]

I want Lando win

[sick turtle]

YESSS THIS GUY GETS IT

I don't mind either winning since I'm not emotionally invested in either of them or McLaren in general, but it would be fun to see Lando win so people go insane and start crashing out

[smoky notch]

Exactly my point. He's had plenty of mistakes to cost him this year's wdc

[winter thistle]

just checking how long the timeout is don’t mind me edit: TWO MINUTES?

😳 Points over the last 5 races:

Alex Albon - 28
Lewis Hamilton - 26

The only drivers who have outscored Albon in this span are the McLarens, Max Verstappen, George Russell & Charles Leclerc.

Incredible.

Bluesky · Sep 7, 2025, 3:44 PM

[weak turret]

YES MAX

[outer abyss]

Can you let me know after you have checked, thanks! EDIT: 2 long

[viscid elbow]

He's done very well but Sainz has had such terrible luck!

[cold bay]

I think the Lando Stan cope is gonna be just as funny when Oscar wins tbh. The mental gymnastics his dickriders do is insane. I don’t dislike him but they’re the fucking worst lol

[desert sundial]

Sainz and Bearman had me stressing tf out when they collided 😭😭

[smoky notch]

SAY NO MORE ALBON 7 TIME WDC INCOMING BABYYYYYY

[sick turtle]

Nah the Lando hater one is gonna be funnier since there's more of them or theyre more vocal. I think Oscar and Lando fans like eachother and both are becoming way more similarly toxic to eachother these couple of weeks. Not that I mind however, I'm just a simple f3 fan looking from the outside

[fair forge]

ai slop

[haughty marten]

I'm a McLaren fan in general, so I just wanna see Papaya on top. I don't care who it is.

But yeah seeing the potential Lando haters' copium would be hilarious

Oscar sacrificing 3 pts to get rid of the Hungary "Landos win" asterix. He owns Mclaren and Lando nothing now.

[distant light]

good trade

[haughty marten]

Tbh that's one thing I'm starting to dislike about the McLaren fanbase

This Lando/Oscar beef is just so stupid.

We have two great drivers. It's like the 2017 Warriors with Steph and KD

Fucking BEHAVE.

[desert sundial]

My favorite part of the race was when Max Verstappen said "its Max Verstappen time!!!" and Max Verstappened all over the place!

[sick turtle]

you can't live off of one driver, most people have forgotten that in the era of Max Verstappen in redbull.

[urban zenith]

Wow max had the biggest winning margin by anyone this season

[sly badger]

Lando and Max broke Barrichello's F2004 race lap record

[smoky notch]

Exactly exactly like as much as I love Lando there's absolutely no point in hating Oscar because he's a funny man let's be honest
Now other teams and drivers on the other hand....

[haughty marten]

Honestly, even tho McLaren have been dominating the season, it's satisfying that there's two drivers duking it out for the title

Neither Lando or Oscar is Checo

[worldly egret]

as a mclaren fan, I don't do beef

i think lando and oscar can coexist together

[sudden bough]

w

[cold bay]

Asking F1 fans to be reasonable is a wild request 🤣

[frank beacon]

As a Mercedes fan, they should simply disband the McLaren team ❤️

[sick turtle]

As a Rafael Camara fan and f3 fan, ninguem e besta

[haughty marten]

I prefer to hate executives like Briatore, Marko, and MBS

[snow swan]

I miss Horner. Miss the rawdog

[hushed spear]

I never see lando fans hating on Oscar it's just Oscar fans who hate on lando

gng okay "never" was a bit of an understatement but still lando haters are a lot more than Oscar haters, even in the mclaren fandom itself

[scarlet vessel]

I miss our team bro 😭 everyone's left us or been let off

[cold bay]

Yup and they are getting along great for such an intense rival fight tbh. It’s honestly just the toxic fanbases that are at each others neck

[inland jewel]

im sorry? u have NEVER seen lando fans hating on oscar?

Hate to tell you but every driver is gonna have hate from everey other driver's fans, regardless if they're teammates or not

[haughty marten]

I keep saying this

Lando and Oscar are being extremely civil despite being in a fiery title fight

Their fans are being stupid

[desert sundial]

Christian and Toto secret romance days are over 😔

Du du du du max verstappen 🗣️🔥🔥🔥

“No risks, full push” 🔥

[oak shell]

it was a littil "InChIDenT"

[smoky notch]

Literally this is the best relationship of two title contender teammates probably since 1986

[dire silo]

It's bc they support the drivers individually, not the team. That's the big difference. We would've had the same shit with Nico and Lewis if that was around for the post-tiktok social media era.

[crimson sphinx]

Bluds stop talking about that shit and let it go

[blazing minnow]

anyone got info on Hulkenberg's DNS yet?

[desert sundial]

I think Lewis deserves big props for his race today, shame he had a 5 grid pen but he did great!

[blazing minnow]

Nico Rosberg took a selfie with Ferrari fans a day earlier

[rapid hinge]

Same same but hey 4 place is way better than DNF 💀💀

[untold bloom]

god every single time max wins i just uhh remember this image

[vernal wadi]

This is why I respect oscar, but I expect the same respect for Lando, but I know the kids will find a way to hate him anyways.

[crimson sphinx]

Beautiful ngl

[viscid elbow]

Oscar is a cool cucumber 🥒

[haughty marten]

Now Max is the "Sainz"

How times have changed

[delicate edge]

very wise from him

that pit stop was catastrophic though, you can see on the replay the mechanic staring at the wheel doing nothing before a colleague taps him on the shoulder to remind him to screw it lol

[bold zenith]

So this the one where George crash at the end

[blazing minnow]

2002 and 2015 core

[winter scarab]

they still ended up with a p4 and p6 still not too shabby tbh

[untold bloom]

i’m a max fan but even all of those wins were just too much for me 😭

[viscid elbow]

Sainz Singapore finish that year was so dope

[haughty marten]

Yeah eventually you're like "come on can everyone else keep up"

That's me rn as a McLaren fan. Happy that Max was able to keep up.

[crimson sphinx]

Yeah but it was nice to see a driver make the most of a great car

[grim kernel]

Great day on the f1 server

[untold bloom]

OH AND HIS ITALIAN QUALIFYING WORLD RECORD TIME WAS OUTTA NOWHERE THAT WAS GOATEDD LOL

[viscid elbow]

Perez in Miami losing all the confidence and never recovering 🙁

[tall wind]

Guys the results arent loading in, i hope Ferrari won!

[untold bloom]

he kept kissing the walls 😔

[alpine meadow]

Being a lando fan strains me mentally more and more every race can this guy have a not controversial race for once in his life

[grim egret]

someone check on yuki

[haughty marten]

I mean

He still has a chance to win WDC

Or at least he has a better chance than Max and George

[crimson sphinx]

Yuki and the vcarbs almost got lapped by max

[tall wind]

Do yall think Max or the car made him won?

[grim egret]

the car

[untold bloom]

while max doesnt care about hate and controversy, lando straight up ABSORBS the hate and controversy, he should just ignore what others say
this doesn’t just go for formula one drivers, everyone should just not care what other people think (if they themselves are doing the best they possibly can) LIKE LANDO DOESS

[haughty marten]

Both

Max was great and the Red Bull is good in Monza

[blazing minnow]

don't let the haters get in your head, just focus on yourself and improve

[crimson sphinx]

Mustve been the wind

[tall wind]

[haughty marten]

Basically

Be Oscar

[paper vortex]

why do people hate mclaren again?

[blazing minnow]

mate aren't you supposed to be at AF corse for the lineup?

[crimson sphinx]

Herd behavior

[blazing zephyr]

Piastri will win baku.

[paper vortex]

Also 1 minute to just chat, Are the mods daft?

[distant light]

idk same reason people hated 2023 verstappen
fucking 2 minute cooldown

[haughty marten]

People hate whoever is successful

They hated Seb
They hated Lewis
They hated Max

[rapid hinge]

Same reason why people hated Max back on 2021 to 2023. They keep winning and sports fan on general hate the people or team that always win

[split bane]

My man Charlie will win in this truck he has to drive, trust🕯️

[scarlet vessel]

Fans will always hate the team or driver that dominates

[snow swan]

He decided to race like mad max, at first i thought red bull made some changes to their cars

[alpine meadow]

Even lando was one of the most loved drivers back in 2020 so at this point I wouldn’t be surprised if oscar becomes more disliked in the coming years especially if he doesn’t have competition

[blazing zephyr]

Why did alonso dnf??

[paper vortex]

Tbh I never hated max for being dominant, I only hate his dirty tactics, mutiple times he shoved people off the track for example:

2021 brazil
2021 Saudi Arabia
2025 spain
And alot more

[haughty marten]

Tbh Max's shenanigans are not new

Senna and Schumi also did the same things

[grim egret]

Shame on ferrari for throwing away such awesome support. this team needs something more

[valid zealot]

Finally found it

[barren pelican]

So max said he wouldn’t believe Redbull could win another race this year do they have a chance of winning another race? Perhaps new vegas or Austin?

[rapid hinge]

This team makes me so sad man. Ferrari depression strikes again 😭😭

[paper vortex]

touché

[haughty marten]

Vegas and Interlagos most likely

It's the long straights and lack of corners where Red Bull shines

It's Baku, Singapore, COTA, and Abu Dhabi where they're fucked

[tepid creek]

19 seconds gap is diabolical

[barren pelican]

Well slow corners where they struggle too

[clever pendant]

Aah it was so much fun! Such a great atmosphere 🥹 and ofc max won which was a cherry on top!!!

[paper vortex]

also will the mods PLEASE lower the time to chat? Istg it's pissing me off that I have to wait a whole 2 minutes just to simply talk. Dafties these days.....

[haughty marten]

In all honesty

To be a champion, you have to be ruthless

Even OSCAR has a ruthless streak. It's just not apparent since he acts like he smokes weed before every interview

[pulsar imp]

tu tu tu tu max verstapen

[paper vortex]

touché part 2

[dusty owl]

hes just too nonchalant

[short lotus]

Why the fuck did McLaren swap places

[haughty marten]

They fucked up

Plain and simple

[blazing zephyr]

[steep yarrow]

And that pit stop , mechanical issue last week and now this , piastri must've felt bad for him ngl

[warm galleon]

Hey guys I have a doubt it might sound dumb but I am actually confused with the news saying that max created a new fastest lap in F1 history of 1.18.792 buut like are they talking Abt only at monza or incl other tracks

[paper vortex]

heh.... scotland >:3

[primal iris]

Classical zak stuff

Once they seal that shit in Baku or Singapore, the gloves are off

[mystic stone]

max won ?

[twilit trench]

feel bad for lando, but the fact that the commontator called out he has not made one word since the pit stop, got me sm

[delicate edge]

it definitely looked super crowded on TV.
lol! people scraping rubber off the track or braking points boards?

So... McLaren prefers Norris??

[fallen junco]

You still have doubts?

[slow wadi]

Games gone team orders in a championship battle

[quaint orchid]

I see people complaining that the asked Piastri to swap with Norris but how is he the favorite if they let him pit first to cover Leclerc? If they pitted normally then Oscar would have had the bad stop.

[hollow grail]

I don't understand why Piastri let it go anyway...

[clever garnet]

They're actually both part of one real country called the uk 🇬🇧 🤓 🤓

Integrity is also a concept

[mellow sun]

That's such a nonsense argument

Just because "people make mistakes" doesn't mean a mistake THAT insanely flagrant is acceptable at the highest level of the sport

[hardy current]

I just think at this stage it's a bit odd. Not out of nowhere, but still odd. Even despite the pit screw up

[void bough]

Its such an instant high-stress scenario. The standard these days is 1 stop races. You basically have to do the stop PERFECTLY or else it becomes SUPER obvious that someone messed up, but back a little while ago youd be doing 3 or even 4 pit stops and 1 bad one might be of little consequence.

[hardy current]

Oh no doubt. I wouldn't getting some special treatment either, but you can't really blame him for the team begging Piastri to give him his spot back. Unless he was on comms begging for it and we just never heard about it

[worn mica]

your argument only makes sense in the mind of a norris stan LOL

[void bough]

I don't think you fully understand how much stress that little moment is.

You're sitting on the hot asphalt, a 800kg death machine swings into places directly in front of you, and you're expected to come into contact with several hundred degree car parts and do your job perfectly, even though theres so many variables behind it.

[zealous plume]

Yeah. That's true

[worn mica]

"when the pit crew makes a mistake, its apart of racing, unless it effects lando, then the crew member must instantly be fired and oscar take a drive thru to make it right"

[hardy current]

Pit crews def don't get enough credit. All the blame when one little thing goes wrong, but none of the praise when it goes 100% right

[mellow sun]

No I fully understand how much stress it is. That's why they're the highest level of professionals.

I'm not saying the guy who made the mistake should be fired, but he sure as shit shouldn't be making one like that again any time soon

[void bough]

Pit Crews are people. They don't do it perfectly every time. The fact we've been getting sub-2-second pits is INCREDIBLE.

[worn mica]

so how does that mean "hey lets show lando preferential treatment and let him have his spot back"

[void bough]

Right, and even high level professionals make mistakes, especially when (again) there are so many variables.

[timber tundra]

So, in summary, McLaren messes up a pit stop and the obvious thing to do is to ask Piastri to volunteer to be penalized.

[void bough]

How many professional athletes have you seen make bad moves? How many bad moves have you seen from Lando or Oscar? It happens

[zealous plume]

SHIT SHOW

[worn mica]

i can just imagine if it was the RB that passed lando after that mistake and zac walking down to the RB pitwall and asking if they can give the spot back to lando because "look, the pit guy messed up its not landos fault!"

[hardy current]

I'm watching it right now lol Steelers football is so back

[worn mica]

this makes complete sense in delulu norris fans minds lol

[zealous plume]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[mellow sun]

I think that's a gross oversimplification motivated by the desire to hate on a specific driver you don't like lol

He had the position fair and square, had the position taken away by something completely out of his control, McLaren doesn't want a driver to be penalized by something they can't control so they give him the position back and let the two race it out

[void bough]

You can bemoan the pit wall or Lando or Oscar or whatever but the pit stop crew are definitely not at "fault" for how it played out.

McLaren and Lando didn't leave any space for error. You can recover a bad midrace pit. You can't recover a bad pit with 4 laps left.

[timber tundra]

McLaren sees the slow pit stop, looks around and says "Oscar should pay for that". That's what I watched. I have this weird thing where I think the fastests cars with the best pit stops should win races. Not, the fastest car should win and if they have a slow pit stop someone else should pay for that.

[mellow sun]

Same reason they did the EXACT same thing for Piastri last time this happened

[worn mica]

losing a position out of the drivers control is apart of racing

can i get a tldr as to why they team ordered piastri

[void bough]

Precedent.

[worn mica]

seriously, they gave him the position back because he was gonna throw a fit after having engine trouble and then a bad pitstop ruin 2 of his races in a row

[mellow sun]

And this happened because they prioritized not having something out of the driver's control affect the championship race

They didn't tell Piastri to let Norris win, they told him to give him the position then race

Piastri could have taken it back, he just wasn't able to

[timber tundra]

Haha. "It's a team sport". This had nothing to do with team. The team gained no advantage by swapping positions. Same number of team points either way, the "team" actually made a decision not on what is best for the team, but what is best for one of the drivers. The decision was neutral for team, and gave an advantage to a driver. If the team advantage is that "everyone gets along well" that is totally contradictory to what F1 claims it does ... it is always, "prove yourself on the track or be gone" ... Norris got 2nd in the McLaren head office, not on track.

[worn mica]

no this happened because they had to baby sit Landos ego LOL

[snow swan]

Yes, they told him to race with a couple laps left. Some great racing aye? Its like you can already see the outcome.

[worn mica]

if that was the case, they would have told Oscar to retire after Lando's engine went kaboom

Norris tends to do well with these high speed races compared to Oscar, but Oscar's high-downforce handling impresses me quite a lot.

His corner exits are especially impressive.

The whole plan was for piastri to defend against leclerc, so they swapped positions. Either way it makes the championship battle better and closer so why on earth are you complaining

No need to "add more laps". No need to get involved at all. Slow pit, come out late. It's how it's been for the, uh, the entire history of F1. Guess now we can re-evaluate every pit stop and decide how we'd like to shuffle the cars around to make everything look tidy. Should be awesome. I guess I should go watch something where you are rewarded for fast laps and fast stops.

[clever garnet]

I really hope it's ragebait

[worn mica]

yeah like what, he really thinks they swapped oscar and lando to...defend against leclerc? like seriously? LOL

[void bough]

I think Monza needed more laps just for tire deg reasons. I get that its typically based on distances but these cars are too damn fast.

I just want more racing.

[lean trellis]

First time in Monza today, i got a first row spot on the braking zone of the Ascari, (General Admission, i went to the circuit at 8 am) and honestly I'm flabbergasted by everything, it's such a great experience

[zealous plume]

LMAO right? They pitted oscar fast to stop Leclerc and swapped them to stop Lando (from throwing a tantrum)

[snow swan]

Exactly this.. now everytime one driver has a bad pitstop lets enforce team orders!!! Like, its f1.. this has happened all the time, its part of the sport. There’s lots of variables and it has happened to every driver at some point..

[hardy current]

I think races should finish in qualifying order it's true

yeah just normal pitstops, lando got unlucky and mclaren had to coddle his ego afterwards...sad really

Like I said before, blame McLaren for it if you want that's fine

I'm just tired of everything being constantly put on Lando as if he's the one controlling the team's decisions

The reasons were given, if you don't like them, blame the people who made the decision not the driver

[clever garnet]

I completely agree! Monza is so fast of a track, and it only has 55 (around) laps like what!! There should be wayyy more. It's also an interesting track with overtaking and stuff. Unlike tracks like monaco which have even more laps!

I feel like that's pretty obvious. The McLaren and Monza both have low deg these days, you can go to the end on a single set. Youre better off pitting late because its more likely you can eek out a free pitstop.

Because Max would've been further behind when they pit and they would have had more time to make up the distance if he was ahead?

[worn mica]

yeah, like "it would have been safer to pit earlier" like what does that even mean, if the data shows you wont catch max, you just stay out with track position and hope for a SC or red flag....

[latent oasis]

Can ik What ya guys talkin about?

[worn mica]

if they had the pace to catch him, they would have done that....there is a reason they didnt

[mellow sun]

Especially since they were on softs and he was on hards

[zealous plume]

Mclaren. Pit stops. Late pitting.

[latent oasis]

Ohh

[worn mica]

someone told us that mclaren should have not pitted and stayed out on their tyres for the rest of the race

[void bough]

I think McLaren made the right move.

McLaren wins on Tire Degredation 100% of the time. The issue was that NOBODY was having deg issues so they had to do a more difficult luck-based strategy because Max is outright faster with the setup he had + hes Max Verstappen.

[mellow sun]

Yea I made a mistake I said it was my bad

Not my first language man hop off it for a second jesus

[worn mica]

they 100% did, they played the strategy that was the only shot at giving them the win

like Max did the same thing earlier in the year, never came so he pitted and that was that

[zealous plume]

But don't you think if they had messed up then there was a slight chance for the drivers to make up for the time? Like they won't need to pit oscar to hold off Charles then(might be wrong in my part sorry)
. Or ask oscar to swap.

[void bough]

i think we're missing the true goat of the Italian gp (i gotta rant about this in #feeder-series later)

[kindred mist]

Asking anybody to give up their position based on a hidden agenda isn't right.

[latent oasis]

They could´ve pit like 5 Laps before cuz max was catching up quickly

[void bough]

im talking about the tire deg strategy not the position switching

[worn mica]

they had to pit regardless, if the data they had showed that even on softs they were not gonna catch max, then the play is to stay out as long as you can and hope for a red flag

[mellow sun]

I think they had a chance to make the ground back up if they started earlier, but then the whole mess with the pit happened and they were like what? 19 seconds behind?

[void bough]

The position switching is old news we're talking about McLaren v Redbull here.

[void bough]

Negative. Even on newer tires, the degradation wasnt high enough for the McLaren to shine.

[zealous plume]

I agree

[worn mica]

here we go, armchair internet rookie "thinks" they had a chance, and not the people making a crap ton of money reviewing all the sensor data they have that is showing that no, they wont catch max if they pit

[kindred mist]

Ah, okay.

[void bough]

The assumption with what you're saying is that a fresh set of tires would have been a massive boon AND max would be running the same strategy he had during the race.

[mellow sun]

Idk maybe you're right, I just think it was more likely than a safety car

At the end of the day it's an "if if if if if" scenario with what I'm saying, so it doesn't really matter

[worn mica]

didnt they come out with used softs too? i cant remember to be fair

[latent oasis]

And Guys do you think bearman deserved the penalty?

[void bough]

Williams actually gives me five bucks to decide their strategies for them. I let my cat decide. I think shes an Alex Albon fan.

[worn mica]

its more likely the data they have that says they cannot catch max is wrong than someone wrecking and causing a SC/red flag? 💀

[void bough]

Racing incident. I havent reviewed it but it didn't seem like much considering how Sainz turned. I think it was relatively even on both drivers.

[clever garnet]

Yes

[quaint fog]

What time is the GP

[void bough]

its over brother

[quaint fog]

Oh

[snow swan]

LMFAOOO

[void bough]

It ended like four hours ago or something.

[quaint fog]

Bet ima go Watch the highlights

[night sedge]

Just watched ch4 highligjts

[mellow sun]

I think it could have been more likely that they have a good pace and max makes a mistake or two that allows them to catch up within a fair couple more laps than someone crashing, yes

[night sedge]

If fernando just up and left right now I wouldn't even blame him at this point

[worn mica]

oh jeez, please just stop 💀

[void bough]

Max doesn't really make mistakes like that when hes out on his own.

[night sedge]

Genuinely that Aston is shocking

[void bough]

Nobody really does, especially when theyre out front.

[worn mica]

guy just thinks switching tyres is just going to magically unlock all this pace in the car that they are gonna catch max lol

[wide crow]

bro no way lando just accepted the driver swap and said it was right... spoiled no?
(drivers' reaction)

[mellow sun]

Yea but they would have been about a second or two behind him had they pitted around the same time he did, so he wouldn't have been alone

[worn mica]

100%

[void bough]

No they wouldn't have.

[mellow sun]

Yea they would they were like 12 seconds ahead when he came out of the pit

[worn mica]

if they pitted same time as him, they would have had to use hards not softs....

[wide crow]

still surprised that he takes it as granted

[void bough]

brother. its a 24 second pit.

monza's pitlane is EXTRMELY long.

[void bough]

go weeyums!

[worn mica]

its just his first race give him a break, he just finished binge watching drive to survive

[void bough]

Mathematically, if they pitted 12 seconds ahead of Max, 1 lap later, they would come out roughly 12 to 15 seconds behind Max on track.

[hardy current]

I only keep up with F1 through reels and DTS actually

[worn mica]

on the same tyre compound....so really nothing changes

[void bough]

(Granted, I am not very good at math and that could be completely wrong mathematically, but im pretty sure im right)

[snow swan]

relatable maths sucks

[void bough]

My point though is that in order for them to have come out 2 seconds behind Max they would have had to be within 2 seconds of Max to begin with.

[hardy current]

I still have to use my fingers for basic addition so if I ever start yapping about times use this as evidence to shut me up

[snow swan]

OMG SAME

[void bough]

I use my fingers to do advanced mathematics.

[mellow sun]

I thought it was closer to 20, so they'd have come out closer to 8 seconds behind and Norris is pretty fast with an open road in front of him, but if it's 4 seconds longer than I thought then yea maybe it would have been a lot less likely

[hardy current]

https://tenor.com/view/brain-gif-338783462287106063

[worn mica]

"norris is pretty fast with an open road in front of him"

you know who else was? Max Verstappen LOL

[void bough]

Google AI tells me Monza is a 23-25 second pit.

[mellow sun]

Yea I'm a newer viewer I started last season, why? Does that make me not allowed to have a discussion? I like learning about stuff I'm wrong about.

Never watched Drive to Survive though

[void bough]

So is Max with a trimmed out Red Bull. The failures of the Red Bull are only so bad when you have Max Verstappen in the seat.

[snow swan]

max was flying today, something i needed to see. now my whole week is made

[hardy current]

This is F1, we gatekeep here bud ...

[mellow sun]

Yea his car was pretty fast today

[void bough]

That RBR car was absolutely faster on the straights than the McLaren I'd say.

[mellow sun]

Well so was he

[quick sky]

Lando even said this in the cooldown room

[mellow sun]

But it's Max Verstappen, so that's a given

[void bough]

Right. No amount of strategy could save that.

[snow swan]

Redbull have always been fast on the straights its just the combination of that and the late braking that made up for the shit cornering speed

[quick sky]

Oscar said it was much slower on the corners but obv there arent many in monza

[void bough]

The issue is that RBR is slower on the straights WHEN there is high deg issues and the McLaren can outshine them.

[worn mica]

not even gatekeeping, but lil bro was in here telling us how its not apart of racing to have bad pit stops....like you havent even been watching long enough to finish a cup of coffee...please dont start dictating what is and isnt "part of racing" lol

[void bough]

The RBR is still an alright car.

[worn mica]

when Max drives it

[snow swan]

yeah and on the cornering hes at a massive disadvantage which is why they took advantage of the amount of corners in monza

[worn mica]

i forgot who it was, but didnt some ex driver just say if Max was in the Racing Bulls car he would be in title contention lol

[gray grove]

We all agree booing is a shit thing to do right?

[mellow sun]

Well at least we agree on something

[void bough]

RBR's second driver seat is cursed because RBR's driver selection process is done entirely by a cracked out 800 million year old man.

[worn mica]

yeah boo when the mclaren rep comes to the podium not lando

[void bough]

Every once in awhile it works but 95% of the time its absolutely terrible.

[gray grove]

And mbs

[worn mica]

i mean i thought that was a given

[mellow sun]

Booing the driver instead of the team that made the decision isn't just a bad thing to do, it's just kinda stupid

[snow swan]

Not even the fact that the second seaters are bad, its legit cus the sensitivity of the car is insane and you cant extract pace from a car you cant control.

[gray grove]

Im seeing alot of things im like bruh its the team not lando 😭

[mellow sun]

Like you don't even have to watch F1 to know that was dumb

[void bough]

Oh no, every second seater with the exception of 1 or 2 in the last 5 or 6 seasons has been good already.

[worn mica]

even albon who said he actually likes a sharp car IIRC was like....this car is WILD

[gray grove]

Like sure yeah let everything play out naturally as it should do

[void bough]

But the problem is they aren't suitably preparing their drivers to take on such a vehicle.

[snow swan]

like pierre is doing amazing in the alpine

[worn mica]

part of it though is to make lando happy so he doesnt whine about it after the race

[mellow sun]

Yea but isn't the car also like really terrible this year compared to earlier years?

[gray grove]

Unlucky for alonso though with the suspension failure

[void bough]

When your operating window is either winning every race or only getting like 5 podiums, your dataset is skewed.

[mellow sun]

To be fair, the guy had his engine blow on him last week and now his pit crew takes a nap in the middle of his pit

I think anyone would be a little pissy

[gray grove]

Literally dismantled like lego bricks

[void bough]

His pit crew really didn't do that badly.

[trail lake]

Mclaren need to stop babying Lando

[snow swan]

I just think its a dumb decision to make the car so sensitive and undriveable for the sake of pace, cause you cant get pace if you have to slow down the car cause ur scared if u go any faster ur gonna go into the wall... I think there needs to be a balance, especially cause half the time even max is complaining

[mellow sun]

It's more so for emphasis's sake

[void bough]

It was just at a really bad time.

[void bough]

I think a lot of red bulls decisions are dumb.

[acoustic crag]

No spoiler plz, is race worth watching in full or should
I do race in 30?

[snow swan]

Yep exactly that

[void bough]

The race was only like an hour long.

[mellow sun]

The start was sick, the end had some drama

Idr the middle

Short race though

[void bough]

Much like many other high speed races, nothing happened for 40 laps.

[gray grove]

The start was crazy

[valid zealot]

Plan C ?

[gray grove]

Well that normally happens with monza t1

[void bough]

Except whatever Sainz and Bearman were doing.

[snow swan]

and lawson like what was even going on

[void bough]

He pit in Lap 9

[gray grove]

20 cars fitting into a space normally tight enough for 2 wide thats it

[regal spade]

for chaos

[void bough]

I dont really understand what was happening there.

You can do an early pit and make up time, and then gain a bunch on mid race pits from others.

But that requires 2 things:

1. Your driver isnt Liam Lawson
2. Your car is very fast.

[torn violet]

https://tenor.com/view/max-p1-verstappen-verstapenn-win-winner-gif-9994117068647617302

[quick sky]

please no Liam Lawson slander, its rule 2

[snow swan]

honestly i dont think any of us know what was wanting to be achieved there

[void bough]

My anti-Lawson bias is showing. He keeps taking out my goats.

[quick sky]

Its always the same guy

[snow swan]

sport is boring

[mellow sun]

I was actually kinda hopeful for Tsunoda when he was 9th then I looked away for a bit and he was back to 14th

[still cypress]

TU TU TU TU

[void bough]

This guy... its always the same guy...

[snow swan]

I legit said 'omg tsunoda 9th wow' and he dropped..

[still cypress]

MAX VERSTAPPEN

[void bough]

Albon gained seven places this race.

My goats.

[quick sky]

yeah albon last two races is insane mode

[mellow sun]

Idek at this point man, maybe they do need a new driver just so Tsunoda can get into another car 😭 🙏

[quick sky]

the lap 1 overtakes at zandvoort was masterclass

[void bough]

Tsunoda to Alpine or whatever.

[mellow sun]

Tsunoda to Cadillac or smth

[boreal sentinel]

Lets be real, todays race was a flop (excluding start and end result)

[mellow sun]

That's in 2026 right?

[void bough]

Absolutely not. I love the Cadillac lineup.

[snow swan]

I liked this race

[mellow sun]

Not gonna lie I didn't know they had a line-up

[quick sky]

Tsunoda to be done w F1 🤗

[void bough]

Perez and Bottas with Herta on T/R.

[boreal sentinel]

2% action and 98% DRS trains.. 2025 has ruined F1..

[mellow sun]

Never really followed either, but Perez sounds good from what I've heard

[void bough]

me when im a hater for free.

[boreal sentinel]

Hasnt been a single race this year where the middle of the race actually has something happening 😭

[final berry]

Just confirming that was the shortest race in f1 history right?

[snow swan]

i mean it gave us a lot to talk about + im biased cause max had a great performance

[boreal sentinel]

Quickest*

[mellow sun]

I thought Silverstone was pretty damn entertaining

[final berry]

Tomato tomatoe

[snow swan]

silverstone was a good race

[boreal sentinel]

The one race they allowed rain to not result in a red flag

[snow swan]

zandvoort too

[boreal sentinel]

Verstappen 67 wins incoming

[mellow sun]

Zandvoort is last race right?

[boreal sentinel]

No it was Monza

[mellow sun]

Man I hate remembering names

[snow swan]

In the netherlands

[mellow sun]

Wait no Zandvoort IS last race

[celest kernel]

Like before this weekend?

[mellow sun]

If I meant it was the last race I'd have said THE last race

[celest kernel]

I don't think I follow

[mellow sun]

But yea all I remember is that Norris's engine decided it wasn't racing anymore and both Ferraris DNF'd

[smoky notch]

Hulk's issues were Hydraulics that's actually tragic

[mellow sun]

Crazy how even with his engine blown, Norris STILL ended up in front of both Ferraris

Guys I missed the race.Why is lando getting so much hate again?

[odd mauve]

Bc he yapped when he pushed max out

[mellow sun]

Pit lane messed up, McLaren told Piastri to hand him back the position

[celest kernel]

Team decided to swap position after mechanics f'd up his pit stop

[next dirge]

What did he say

So why is he getting the hate instead of the team

[void bough]

i see ive returned to the same conversation as before LOL

[odd mauve]

Idk

[next dirge]

My man can't catch a break

[mellow sun]

Because people love hating on Norris for some reason

[celest kernel]

Ask the people booing

[mellow sun]

Man can't catch a break these days

[odd mauve]

Bc he kinda like “yapped” a bit and got mad at ehm max because if u watch the start you’ll see

[nimble sleet]

Bro

[odd mauve]

I think)

[void bough]

This year is your year.

[neat latch]

Man I just want to forget this weekend, congrats to max but like dude

What the fuck

[celest kernel]

Yea i don't think him saying that max pushed him onto the grass was the reason

[odd mauve]

We’re so back
We’re depressed

[next dirge]

Ur saying he yapped but u don't know what he said.

[odd mauve]

But I don’t think he deserves the hate think abt it

[nimble sleet]

Our year in dnf

[void bough]

Other people hate Lando because of some preconceived bias and rivalries.

I dont like Lando because hes boring.

[odd mauve]

He said smth I can’t retell the exact words mite watch the start online

[void bough]

Go on girl give us nothing.

[mellow sun]

If he wins fair and square, he has a rocket

If he makes a mistake, Norris always bottles

If McLaren makes a bad decision, Norris somehow was the reason for that too

Last week, engine blows in his face

This week, 5 century pit costs his position and then he gets blamed again for McLaren's decisions

[next dirge]

Ok sure

[nimble sleet]

Another week of depression yall

[smoky notch]

Excuse me Lando is in the top 10 funniest he's not even close to the worst
Enter Lewis "Because I'm Black" Hamilton

That's the funniest thing that's ever come out of his mouth

[odd mauve]

Okay he does have a GREAT car

[void bough]

I didn't say he wasnt funny, I just said he's boring.

[odd mauve]

Next year is OUR year

[next dirge]

Say all u want but I think the redbull was a bit better than mclaren this week

[void bough]

Hes a good driver and a nice guy, sure, I just dont think he's very interesting.

[mellow sun]

So did Verstappen and Hamilton and almost everyone calls them two of the greatest of all time

[odd mauve]

Agreed Although I’m not rlly a redbull fan more max because red bulls strategy is questionable like their car

[void bough]

There's a lot that goes into those titles, im afraid.

[smoky notch]

Hmm ok pop off ig

[void bough]

im surrounded by mclaren and rbr fans, its like im in enemy territory.

[mellow sun]

I'm just saying having a great car doesn't automatically mean you're a bad driver

He was holding his own pretty well in a decent car for a couple years

[next dirge]

I saw people saying lando engine failed cuz he wantedly was trying to find excuse for losing title

[smoky notch]

He's had too many mistakes to say that that's the only reason he lost

[odd mauve]

Not something u can say directly their cars better then most (wich is still fair btw) because as a engineering enthusiast I also care about the car btw but I do agree that max and Lewis had a great car but both where Hella good during their peak

[next dirge]

Yea but I am talking about the person who said that bro

[mellow sun]

"Yes I'm going to risk bursting into a ball of flames by blowing my engine so I can have an excuse for losing a race"

[void bough]

Sure. He's not a bad driver but he's not at the level of Max or Hamilton or Vettel yet.

He could be.

[snow swan]

Unfortunately they werent as mistake prone as Lando

[mellow sun]

Yea obviously he isn't the greatest driver of all time

[void bough]

But time does not exist in a flat space.

[smoky notch]

Yeah ik

[next dirge]

so is piastri then?

[void bough]

No.

[mellow sun]

How many crashes has Verstappen had again?

[next dirge]

People talk like piastri is like 10 times better than lando

[void bough]

Piastri and Lando are pretty much at the same level.

[odd mauve]

I think it’s probably aryton - shumacher or something

[mellow sun]

Same level different strengths, difference being age

[void bough]

No, not really.

[odd mauve]

U can’t rlly say the greatest in f1 because most are very good

[snow swan]

Hes had crashes but not major mistakes in the time where hes had the fastest car. He extracted all he could out of the car in 2023 and we saw proof of that.

[void bough]

Lando and Oscar have different skills and strengths.

[celest kernel]

They are year and a half apart 💔

[mellow sun]

I'm not trying to put down Max, he's one of the greatest drivers of all time, I'm just saying drivers make mistakes

[void bough]

They also have been getting better at what the other is good at with time and experience.

[odd mauve]

Ofc lando did too everyone does + the best most times make mistakes because they defend- overtake etc.

[void bough]

The implication here being that saying Lando isnt the best somehow implies Piastri is the best is funny to me.

[mellow sun]

Holy shit I could have sworn Norris was like 28

Holy Mandela effect, Batman

[deep pulsar]

YOOO I WASNT HOME SO I DIDNT WATCH THE RACE I JUST COME BACK AND MAX WAS 1ST

[smoky notch]

I'm 7 months younger than Piastri lmaooooo

[mellow sun]

I think Lando's biggest weakness is his mindset

I said something real smart about it some other time, but I can't be bothered to remember it

[deep pulsar]

The only difrance is he is an F1 driver your not...

[snow swan]

Yes.. but theres a big difference between the greats and lando, and thats consistency

[smoky notch]

Being able to highlight someone's weakness beyond the surface is practically impossible.

Its a combination of factors.

Lando has the capacity to be one of the greats, but he isnt there yet.

It's alright I forgive you for it

[void bough]

You can divide up Champions into two categories. You have those sort of breakout stars and the built-up stars. I think Lando could be a built star while Oscar at THIS point in his career would be a bit of a midway between a built and breakout stars.

One isnt better than the other, its just about when and how you get there.

this is like 2014 but G-rated

Idk if some of you guys missed it but, Landos gp said it clear, that Lando would still get back position if piastri was to become first since he did a undercut on Lando to (I am guessing) avoid a double stack

about 10-15 laps of good stuff it seems

[sweet kraken]

who won and what place was leclerc?

[sweet kraken]

as long as oscar beats norris im happy enough i lowkey just want osc to get wdc

[vague trellis]

Lando beat piastri, race was pretty boring, had some moments okay moments but all around 4/10 imo. Shortest f1 race of all time as well. 1 hour 13 min

@sweet kraken

[indigo stirrup]

oh and hadjar beat tsunoda even when hadjar started from pitlane

[sweet kraken]

ughhh :( thx yea i just saw top 4 stayed at their positions, sounds so boring

oh well at least champ gap is 31 pts

[vague trellis]

Norris overtook max and Leclerc overtook piastri

From like lap 1-3

Than they both came back to their positions

[sweet kraken]

leclerc my goat ❤️‍🩹

[void knot]

max was forced to give position

[sweet kraken]

🤕

[vague trellis]

Also Lando and piastri switched positions.

Lando lead all race than they did a reverse Hungary 2024. But it was much less controversial

Imo it was a clear that a switch needed to be done. Landos race engineer even said it before piastri undercut him that they will switch incase he overtakes him

And piastri did overtake him since the pit wall did a 6 sec pit stop for Lando

[sweet kraken]

"and then leclerc pulled masterclass driving and overtook everyone and won" right? right? 😓

[sweet kraken]

oooo

[vague trellis]

He used wings and just fly to first place

[sweet kraken]

6 SEC??? goodness bruh what were they doing?? having dinner at the pit stop?

[vague trellis]

Hamilton also had a good race from p10 to p6

[sweet kraken]

raw talent and skill, our next wdc!! 🔥

[vague trellis]

His front left didn’t go on

[sweet kraken]

ohhh yikes

[vague trellis]

Anyways imo it wasn’t controversial at all. Lando was promised to get his position back in case piastri overtook, and yes I agree it may not have happened if the pitwall didn’t have a 6 sec pit stop but still Lando was promised switch back in case piastri overtook

[dense locust]

fuck i really thought ferrari had a chance

[vague trellis]

The switch back was planned on piastris undercut not a super long pit stop🤣 so I also understand those who argue piastri should have been able to keep p2

[sweet kraken]

😐 wait so piastri could overtake him just fine bc of the pitstop but they made him give back the position just cus they were slow

[sweet kraken]

same bruh i was expecting to wake up to at least like leclerc p2 😭

[vague trellis]

Yeah pisastri overtook Lando after the slow stop but Lando was promised before he even pitted that incase piastri was to overtake him after his stop they would switch positions

It was like Hungary. In 🇭🇺 Lando undercut piastri but piastri was promised his position back. Same thing happened now but reverse

But I don’t think piastri would have even overtook him if the pit was under 3 sec

So you could argue for both sides but I like Lando better so I might be a bit bias…🤣

[sweet kraken]

thats annoying and bs bruh :/ i just watched highlights, even max laughed at how ridiculous it was

[sweet kraken]

ugh i suppose the battle is kept fair ig

[vague trellis]

But I think max thought the switch was due the slow stop

Lando was promised a switch back before he even pitted in case piastri was to overtake him

Don’t think they we’re expecting a 6 sec stop but a promise is a promise
