Happy with that. Norris in a well deserved 2nd. And 2 Brits on the podium.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well deserved indeed. I'm so happy for him and Piastri right now.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I was skeptical but I'm really glad the hards ended up being the right call for Lando

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Max was Max, Norris was brilliant, Hamilton drove well (and got some luck), Piastri was great, Perez again finished behind slower cars, Stroll needs to go.

Very happy for Lando! What a drive.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Really impressive drive from Oscar too. I think he would have gotten 3rd if he pitted under the full safety car instead of the VSC

I just want to say how great the growth of content and conversation has been here in just a few weeks. Let's see what the McCedes can do.

Um, wtf, hards for Norris?

Damn. Stroll hitting Gasly was very unnecessary.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Really understating it here. Stroll's driven quite poorly today in general, to be honest, so I can't say I'm entirely shocked.

I’m impressed the Mclarens have been able to keep up with the Red Bull so far

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Verstappen watching TV again

Edit: while doing a fastest lap, lol

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't believe how good Lando is defending himself against Hamilton... Impressive!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Norris is driving like a madman out there and it’s so much fun to watch

I just don't understand why McLaren put Norris and Piastri on hard tyres.

Even split strategies surely after seeing how long George lasted on softs

Great defense from Norris and Piastri, didnt think they would keep the mercedes behind them.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm gonna need a replay of Norris' defence against Hamilton. That was imo the best racing we got this year so far.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Yea that first lap after the safety car was amazing.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Norris sounds pissed, and I can't say I blame him. What the fuck were McLaren thinking?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

McLaren seems comfortably quicker than Ferrari right now

McLaren just giving it to Hamilton I'm afraid

I don't think giving McLarens hard tires is a good idea... They're trying to play it too safe.

Really strong defending from Alonso there considering how bad the Aston were here today.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (6 children)

I think there needs to be a rework for the penalties. You look at WEC and a penalty seriously stings. Drive-throughs costing 30 seconds, S&G being 60s. What do we get, 5s for taking a driver out? The penalties are anemic

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

As is, the penalties are clearly not a deterrent to possibly dangerous conduct. That's got to change.

first time following race comments on lemmy! look forward to it

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah...Lance will be picking up a penalty here.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love this Lewis/Lando duel!

Piastri is the new Invisible Man. Sitting casually in 4th as a rookie and nobody is even talking about him!

Perez on softs?

Sainz fastest on hards?

Saxophone during God Save the King?

It’s been a GP of questions so far

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Hamilton's tyres are cooked now, Oscar needs to push.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

What in the actual fuck was that anthem? Completely unnecessary saxophone is always a choice

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

That was a strange anthem
