Seems like the track actually suits harder tyres. The three compounds were the hardest in Pirellis range and I recall last year when McLaren pitted Lando under safety car late on for hards with Lewis behind him on softs that Lando was going to be a sitting duck, but it turned out to be the right call.
Thought MCLaren hired all Ferraris strategists but then saw what they did with LeC
I'd imagine so but who knows. I don't know if there's any truth behind it but apparently his contract says he to be within 100 points of Verstappen by the summer break and no more than 5 places behind Max in the standings
Hulk is low key having one of the best seasons on the grid.
If that’s the case then he is done.
If that does happen and he is given the boot, could be a little curve ball for the driver market.
There's only 3 points between Stroll,Hulkenberg and Tsunoda in 10th,11th and 12th
It could indeed. I seen James Vowles saying they could get rid of Sargeant mid season, if Checo became available could Williams go after him ?
I could see Haas, Alpine and Williams wanting his services. While he is struggling, he does still bring experience and money.
The Hulk to Red Bull woukd be great. Can't do any worse than Sergio anyway.
2 races to make up 37 points.
Even if Verstappen doesnt finish both those races, Checo would still have to finish at least 2nd in both races, and bag a fastest lap or 2 also. Already 5 places behind too, wouldve been 6 places (7th) if Russell's car didnt die yesterday.
Based on recent results, both Russell and Hamilton will overtake Perez after the next race. If those clauses are true Red Bull need to exercise them and get hot out of the car.
The question is who though, they don't seem to be using the RB as a feeder car, I'm reality they should give their junior drivers 24 months in the RB to prove themselves, if they can't they are out for the next prospect, Yuki and Daniel have been blocking that ability for too long.
From what I saw in news/articles before this weekend's race, Ricciardo was top of the list to replace Checo at RedBull. With Lawson presumably taking Ricciardo's seat at RB. How true it is, idk. I also somehow dont see Yuki ever getting a shot at the top team.
I don't get it, what exactly is Yuki supposed to do in order to prove himself worthy of a Red Bull seat?
Probably the best race in a long time maybe since the 2021 season. Lewis at his best just shows why he is the most successful driver ever, naturally things fell in place for him too but hey that's the way it is. Deserved that win and broke more records in the process. How anyone can begrudge that win is beyond me.
McLaren/Norris messed up they should of gone mediums would of at least kept max at bay and reduced his lead they need to focus on that and not the wins especially if max is behind. Piastri was screwed by the team too.
Red bull I dunno aren't progressing as much as they hoped and max is the only thing keeping them from being a midfield/Aston like team at the moment. Checo Sergio Perez needs to go he is just poor and shouldn't be in that car. Maybe Merc did find the ceiling on it and red bull have hit it or Newry leaving is more detrimental than hornyier wanted us to believe.
F me Ferrari what the hell are they trying to make leclerc leave with these starts. They need to up their game big time like the start of the season.
Congrats to hulk showing he is a dam good racer just needs the equipment. Hopefully Audi provides. Has out scored Perez for the past few races.
So focused on the top didn't notice much hell most of the coverage focused on the front so the rest of the pack got glazed over.
Oh and logie bear isn't 22/21 in a 20 car championship anymore he did well and has out qualified Perez 6/7 times this year.
Perez needs to go ha ha
Bottas now 21st in a 20 driver championship.
your derogatory name calling does disservice to the rest of your message .
Huh???
I read it back thinking you had said something about someone. Didn't see anything...
“Newry leaving is more detrimental than hornyier wanted us to believe.”
Guess it was the spellchecker ?
No typo, is it not a thing anymore is it swept under the rug like he wanted ah well …
I thought logie bear or checo got you offended.
In the words of the clarkson meme,
Oh no!
Anyway.
ah bless you ,so you’re still wound up about Christian horner . 🙄 Don’t worry you’ll proably get over it, eventually .
"thought logie bear"
Who's Logie Bear?
