Giving the place back by Leclerc seems wrong. If he was in the right, he shouldn't give the place back. If he was in the wrong, then he still let Hamilton pass Albon so he should be penalised because it's too late to give the place back

EDIT: no further investigation seems wrong given how far ahead Albon was, but maybe after we see replays it will make sense... :/

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Albon noooooooo

I feel like he shouldn't have pitted and give up track position during SC in hopes to regain it on fresher tires.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

This is again a race where Norris is reminding me of Bottas. So incredibly fast if he doesn't have to overtake.

Full safety car, so Max will not win. Probably Norris will take it now.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Feel like a โ€œletโ€™s make things more entertainingโ€ safety car

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Entertainment car

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I don't think that this would happen this early in the season tbh. And if they wanted the race itself more interesting they'd red flag it for a restart.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The ghost of Masi lives on!

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Letโ€™s go car racing!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

McLaren is too much of a clusterfuck to do that

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I agree their strategy is still abysmal, but the car is still obviously better. And getting lucky with a safety car is not strategy. (And every top team and driver gets this advantage from time to time)

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah but keeping the fastest car behind the slower one is bad strategy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Idk, Verstappen kept his slower car ahead of the other faster cars and that strategy worked for him

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Obviously it was luck. Even Norris said so!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The car was not slow. He was at the same pace as the McLarens

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

That's going to make things exciting!

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Oh no Alonso :(

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Aston Martin's race has completely come undone.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And they didn't even have new tyres when they were given a safety car pit opportunity..

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

They did burn up a medium during quali.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Oof Alonso is pissed.. but he is somewhat right, his curse has been following him for over 15 years now

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

He's not far off in his assesment to be fair. He is an incredibly unlucky driver. Monaco 2023 still haunts me.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Hamilton finally waking up, that's nice to see

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Shame that the VSC killed what was otherwise shaping up to be surprisingly interesting with some split strategies. Fucks sake Haas.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Iny opinion it's still interesting though. Might be less 'fair' but that has happened before and will happen again. Generally it evens out.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hadjar driving the race of his life so far. Pit stops are generally done, and we're in the latter half of the race and he's in 5th. Hope he can at least fight off the Ferraris.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Let's hope he can fight off the Mercedes

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Albon in 3rd! Go Weeyums!!!!

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Albon and Hadjar within reach of the podium at least

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Mega unlucky for Norris and McLaren. They're always choosing the wrong times to pitstop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

If it turns into a full safety car, it will make it easier for them to win though.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's awful timing for Norris

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Don't worry, the team handed him a second place.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Seems like going for a two stop was just incorrect. Strange to see so many teams make a mistake like that. Maybe it will change up at the end of the race

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Well usually it would be the right call when looking at Leclerc's tire data after his pitstop and how quickly all tires seemed to fall away. This race is one of the few where you have the phenomenon of tires getting better after already having gotten worse.

Simply an unusual thermic reaction.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Literally everyone could predict the two-stopper being worse, on a track like this getting caught in traffic is an absolute killer and on top of that the pitlane is mega slow. Puzzling.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yuki literally had one job today and he failed immediately. Let's hope he can redeem himself.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not a lot he could have done to prevent Piastri from going past that fast

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

He flubbed that corner to the point he lost DRS while Piastri still had it. Maybe Piastri could have done an overtake in the round after that by being smart. But Yuki just drove poorly there.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Uh, Oscar is having a bad day today

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And the team is consistently trying to make it worse.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

The first pitstop was on Piastri, he didn't stop at the right place

But yeah, the strategy they chose for him is bad

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Go, Lando Norrissian!!

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Nice Russel train going on

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I don't believe it, was that a fair overtake by Verstappen on lap 1??

(It was a very good overtake)

[โ€“] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm a Max fan, but seriously, that overtake should have everyone in awe. I can't even comprehend how that worked.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Franz Hermann might be a good driver.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Incredible overtake.
