Gutted for George, that was one hell of a performance!

Really enjoying the last several races–back and forth, Mercedes (engines) closed/closing the gap on RB. Hope that the second half is as entertaining and it comes down to the last race or two instead of the (too often) runaway for a team/driver.

It was, but it was from Lewis too…a worthy winner today!

Easier to do that kind of stuff if you’re underweight and underfuelled

Yeah exactly, being made to sound like a ‘poor George’ sob story but his tires would’ve been more fucked with the extra weight.

Piastri vs Lewis would’ve been interesting without Lewis having DRS, although he also wouldn’t have been stuck behind George.

Wish Norris would wake up when he’s on the line ffs

He’s generally poor off the line. That’s inexperience of being in this position I think.

Looks awake now … :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

But yes, his starts are slow

Been a while since we’ve seen a Redbull car overtaken and that’s it. Second half of the season could be exciting with the gap that has closed.

Landoooooo

Big chance to close that gap, no doubt max will be 2nd by lap 4 though.

The Red Bull is looking awful these days. Lando has the championship in his sight

Problem is he needs to win every race and even then may not do it.

Should’ve taken those extra points off piastri n not thrown a couple of the other races away.

Those seven extra points his team begged him to give up are gonna be the difference arnt they.

3186

If there is this much car difference it will be easy still

3187

He needs to win all 9 though which is some feat, then also needs max not to come second in at least 1 race (maybe tomorrow) or take a few fastest laps and hope max doesn’t get any.

It’s a pretty tough ask for a guy who just claimed his second win. They simply have to do team orders as well otherwise piastri can easily cost him it too.

It would be hilarious if it did tbh
