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

[–] Purr@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

[–] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Very happy for Lando! What a drive.

[–] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 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

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.

still can't believe mclaren made the hards work, lewis's softs were done shortly after the restart

Damn. Stroll hitting Gasly was very unnecessary.

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 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.

Verstappen watching TV again

Edit: while doing a fastest lap, lol

[–] goldenjoe6@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] Belseb@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] Purr@lemmy.world 11 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.

[–] Belseb@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yea that first lap after the safety car was amazing.

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (7 children)

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

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.

[–] narc0tic_bird@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm gonna be so sad if Norris gets overtaken by all the soft runners...whyyyy

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

[–] Morningcoffee@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

McLaren seems comfortably quicker than Ferrari right now

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

[–] BURN@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

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

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

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

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

[–] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

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

[–] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Well done, Lando! What a race!

Hards is an interesting choice McLaren

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

Damn rough lap for Sainz there

If Max has a "weakness" it's actually starts.

Which in his case means he's just really good at them and not otherworldly, but still.

Lando leads a lap! What a start.
