    George hearing about that 5 second penalty.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,794 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    No extra time in the pit for Max there.

    Comes out in 5th.

    Sainz- I don't know what that means - quality communication as always with Ferrari.

    Kinda missed how Alonso has ended up down in 16th.

    Perez can't get past a rookie in a williams on 35 lap old hards. Jesus wept.....



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,794 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Sainz is flying.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,195 ✭✭✭mr_edge_to_you


    I would've been big a fan of Checo over the years but that fact that Ferrari could close to within 4 points of Red Bull in WCC is not a good look.

    I don't know of anyone who thinks the Perez contract renewal was a good move. Unless they needed Lawson in the vCarb before they needed Perez out of the RB.

    Fascinating stuff between Lando and max



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,797 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    telephone ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,797 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    this is great racing between Lando and max in fairness.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭Toranaga


    This is rip roaring stuff. Looks like Lando has it now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,948 ✭✭✭Captain_Crash


    Dunno bout anyone else but Lando needs to be giving that place back, and quick



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,422 ✭✭✭✭Jordan 199


    He has an esat digifone speakeasy phone in the pocket of his overalls 😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,068 ✭✭✭Hijpo


    Longest 10 laps of verstappens career I'd say



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 977 ✭✭✭niallm77


    THat move in t1 by lando was dangerous



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,385 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Lando definitely wasn't ahead at the apex. And he moved under braking at turn 1.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭Dave0301


    Not sure Norris was ahead at the apex. Also, moving under braking?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,348 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    I thought was max was ahead going into the corner



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,545 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor


    Wouldn't max get something for forcing lando off the track, as max pushed him wide and went off track limits himself.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,797 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I think Lando may be in trouble. I know the team are saying Lando was ahead but they would say that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,385 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Lando could have 3 penalties here.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,797 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Lando gets a five second penalty for forcing max off the track.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Yes Yes Yes!! Max increases his lead, just. One race less to go in the championship.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭Toranaga


    Silly from Lando, had the pace to get him if he let him through.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,348 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    Great to see a Ferrari one-two. Some drivers from Russell,Lawson and Colapinto

    well yeah Lando you should’ve.



  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,658 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Based on all the other penalties, why didn't Max get a penalty for forcing another driver off the track?



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Jesus Max is good at defending on this track. Hamilton knows all about that too. 😁

    Some pace from Ferrari! Great race from Colapinto too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,256 ✭✭✭rameire


    Nice to see Colapinto and Lawson scoring.

    Fair play to them.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,948 ✭✭✭Captain_Crash


    Yeah right call, you could argue Max forced him a little but Max was turning at the limit and got back on asap while Lando took a nice line! Fair cop I’d say!



  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 6,298 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    The team should have told him to give the place back.

    Fascinating 10 laps between Max and Lando.

    Lando should have been told to give the place back, he was clearly not ahead at the apex. Deserved 5 second penalty.

    Reckon he would have gotten ahead again had he given it back straight away.

    McClaren fúcked up I think.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,179 ✭✭✭Longing


    Colapinto please give Marko a call.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,248 ✭✭✭✭martingriff


    Lando had the speed to get by Verstappen should have let him back and then get at him again



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,794 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Well the team told him he was ahead at the apex, sounded like he was not happy with that at the end and that he maybe wanted to give it back - if he had have done that in the right place he more than likely would have passed him.

    In saying that though, Max put up a hell of a fight for that position.

    On a side note I'd like to see that very late move by Lando again.

    Norris had plenty laps to do it cleaner. Verstappen’s defense was immense. Alonso-esque.


    Hope LeClerc gets a more consistent race winning car in the near future. Best driver to take on Max.



  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 34,413 CMod ✭✭✭✭ShamoBuc


    Super drive by Le Clerc and Ferrari got it very right throughout - don't often get to say that !

    Good weekend for Max.

    Peres really not at the races.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Looked like Max was just ahead at the apex, barely.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,068 ✭✭✭Hijpo


    What wad wrong with Maxs car that they had to fix during the pit stop?? Didn't look like they did anything other than tires and didn't have time to adjust the bib 😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,901 ✭✭✭Damien360


    I don't think there was enough laps remaining to have another go. He kept loosing Max right until the start of the straight and gained towards the end. He just couldn't keep on Max's gearbox. Decent racing.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,179 ✭✭✭Longing


    Verstrappen is so good. He is used to these close battles from the past. While Lando is starting to be in these situations fighting for championships.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Does that put Red Bull down into 3rd in the constructors?
    No not yet, only 8 behind.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,810 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Very enjoyable race that. Some observations:

    Lando and McLaren are clearly not ready to compete for the WDC yet. A crap start, and when Lando went wide against Max he should have been told to hand place back immediately, it was obvious he was going to get penalty. And probably had the pace to get past him in the laps that were left.

    WDC surely is over now as a contest? Max has pulled another 5 points ahead of Lando, gap is now 57 points I believe? McLaren might be fastest car for rest of season, but the work Red Bull have done surely is enough.

    Ferrari looked great today. Have to be favourites for p3 in constructors now?

    Red bull need to bin Perez. Crofty made a point at least once of saying that Perez started 9th and Russell started from pits and it was Russell who finished ahead. That's unacceptable from Perez.

    Lawson looked very comfortable and the main team's seat is surely is if he can do same for next 5 races. And Yuki's performance shows me that they are right to not consider him for the top seat.

    Another race where Colopinto finished ahead of Albon too - every race he does that is really hurting Albon's cred.

    Ferrari looked great today. Have to be favourites for p3 in constructors now?

    They're only 8 points away from 2nd. Barring getting thrown out of the constructors championship, has it ever happened that the constructor of the world champion has finished outside the top 2?

    This too shall pass.



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Hard to judge car performance from one race to the next but Ferrari only 8pts behind Red Bull in the race for 2nd so that looks very likely give how garbage Perez is. 48 points McLaren, that might be a step too far but you never know, they were in a class on their own today.
