Think he didn’t really mess up, Piastri just did something special

A "championship caliber driver" shouldn't be bested by a youngster in his second season. I think there is growing evidence that Piastri is the better driver overall and with growing experience he'll leave Norris behind.

I think what we're seeing is a nervous first lap Lando. McLaren has two very promising young drivers, but that means a lack of driver experience. That's why Leclerc won today, he's been around a bit longer. Once Lando and Oscar start regularly winning races, I think you'll see them improve a lot. I just hope for them that their car will still be competitive when they get there.

I think Lando has crazy good pace, but yeah, agree. You watch a young lewis go against Alonso, or a second season Max, and there are mistakes but there are a lot more gains than losses with that fast of a car

Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.

F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.

By the way, F2 > F1.

Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.
