Formula 1 2024

I think McLaren gave Norris the win at Piastri's expense.

[Goofyboy 3293]

They’ve told them to switch. Lando should switch as he got pref on pit stops

[kevwun 15815]

Norris isn't really letting him catch him.

[texas08 1599]

Great fucking race 

Loving thag McLaren battle right now 

[Goofyboy 3293]

Based on the gap, Lando would have passed Piastri anyway.

[PittsburghTiger 6192]

Hamilton and Max get together in the turn.

[kevwun 15815]

Max had hell passing Leclerc who he's quite a bit faster than.  If the cars are evenly matched, there's no passing happening here. 

[PittsburghTiger 6192]

McLaren should shut off their talk about tactics.

The replay of Max and Hamilton was a bit scary. Looks like Max was at fault.

[Goofyboy 3293]

Dive bombing Max is back.

[texas08 1599]

WOW THESE RADIOS!!!

 

ON FUCKKNG FIRE!!!

 

 

YESSSSSSS

[kevwun 15815]

Zach's gonna have to get on the radio here I think.  Short of that, Norris isn't letting him pass.

[PittsburghTiger 6192]

It is very interesting to see the reemergence of “Young Max” now that the cars are much closer in performance. I’m generally one to give him the benefit of the doubt. It also gives credibility to the argument about how it’s so much more the cars than the driver.

This McLaren radio talk these last 10 laps is fascinating. 

[Buzzrock 14936]

Can someone recap what happened with McLaren?

[texas08 1599]

Bullshit.

 

piastri wasn’t doing shit 

 

have been waiting for lando to just be a driver and be aggressive 

he plays around too much, just fight son.

i think he’s the next best driver 

[PittsburghTiger 6192]

I think, if I were Lando, I’d just ride this one out and wait until the post-race debrief. The team has been very good to him, and also Piastri, so I’d not risk upsetting the apple cart for the rest of the season.

McLaren let Norris pit before Piastri with the understanding Norris would give the place back, but he's not doing it.  They've been telling him to slow down for 20 laps, but he's widening the gap instead.

[Goofyboy 3293]

The team fucked up by pitting Lando first. Lando acting like this ensures they won’t make that mistake again.

[Slacks 6835]

Bro needs therapy.

[PittsburghTiger 6192]

Going to be an interesting second half to the season with all of these cars now up front.

Told ya. He can't keep it together without everything set for him.

[Goofyboy 3293]

Lewis with his 200th podium!! This is shaping up to be a decent season.

[aggie08 21511]

Fucking dumb shit from Lando. Let him pass right away, then spend the next 15 laps up his ass showing you're faster. You either pass him, or McClaren calls for the switch.

Nah, they called him off early when he was in 2nd, too. They wanted Oscar to get his 1st win.

[Jive Turkey 12633]

Lando absolutely ignored Piastri immediately after the race and shook everybody’s hand except Oscar.

He went straight to his car and shook his hand before Oscar got out. 

This stuff is dumb, I hope Lando loses the championship by less than 7 points. This wasn’t a couple second gap that he was giving up, it was 5+ and growing.

[KingBobo81 535]

Not sure what you were watching, but Lando went over to Oscar’s car immediately after the race (before Oscar even got out).

You don’t slow down by three seconds when the race is still in the balance. 

[ConferenceRoom 6144]

And yeah. Max the Driving Baby is back in force. You love to see it. What an asshole. 

[Jive Turkey 12633]

Screw me. Missed that part. Flipping between the race and golf.

I wonder if he ever says. "my bad."

[faps 806]

Why even pit Lando first and have to rely on team orders later? McLaren cant even have a 1-2 without stepping all over their dicks. 

[ConferenceRoom 6144]

Fernando is faster than you. Multi 21. Max/Kvyat in Singapore. Countless other team orders. This isn’t a brand new situation, guys.

Fernando was fucking pissed (right) after the race btw

[NoName 16367]

 

[Levi 2588]

VCARB really screwed over Danny with strategy and they should have finished with both drivers in the points. 

[blacklab 11941]

Max acting like a baby on the radio to the point the engineer basically told him to shut up

[ChickenSandwich 9844]

Norris and max acting like spoiled cunts was better than the action on track lol

[Goofyboy 3293]

I don’t think Lando was being a cunt. He’s chasing Max for the championship and is hyper focused on winning. He did the right thing and his boss needs to have a sit down with him, but damn - 7 points is 7 points.

[Jive Turkey 12633]

 

[Mr. Drummond 2199]

Lots of mistakes to go around at McLaren.

Lando shouldn’t have given up lead at first corner

mclaren should have pitted Oscar first

lando should have given the place back right after the pit screw up and then raced oscar and made McLaren make the call if you are really faster.

Lando certainly shouldn’t have let the drama build up

This right here. The intelligent move is to give the place back when you have plenty of laps to challenge Oscar for the lead. The team has allowed clean racing with these two this season. 

[deft 6862]

Lando’s poor engineer. That dude sounded so defeated. I felt worse for him than I usually do for GP having to listen to Max bitch about other drivers after max does jackass max shit.

[Chewbacca 7780]

Yep. Lando won't get that preference in the same situation again. If they pitted Oscar first, Lando never gets back in front.

[Chewbacca 7780]

He went straight to his car and shook his hand before Oscar got out. 
This stuff is dumb, I hope Lando loses the championship by less than 7 points. This wasn’t a couple second gap that he was giving up, it was 5+ and growing.

He never gets in front without the undercut.

[Chewbacca 7780]

Yeah, that was a masterclass in terrible strategy.

I don’t think Lando was being a cunt. He’s chasing Max for the championship and is hyper focused on winning. He did the right thing and his boss needs to have a sit down with him, but damn - 7 points is 7 points.

He was 100 percent being a cunt.

And he was pulling away from him once he cleared him, if Piastri was making up the time or caught up then so be it. He’s also the 1 with a very outside chance at the championship.

[ConferenceRoom 6144]

McLaren falls short in 1-2 victory. 

[kevwun 15815]

Because it's so hard to pass there, if 2 cars were even, the one in front pulled away because you can't follow closely there for multiple laps.  Piastri pulled away from Max and Lando from the start.  Then Lando did the same thing when he was in front.  If Piastri had been pitted first, Lando would have never caught him unless he had an issue.  You had to be significantly faster to run a car in front of you down and then it was still a bitch to pass some one.  Max was lapping over half a second faster than Hamilton and still couldn't pass him.

Damn you, Lando... I was just starting to like you.
