Track Map

Calling it: the Mclarens both out in turn 1 after Georpedo bumps Norris into Piastri.
My wife also agrees that George will take out lando.
Are laps under the safety car counted¿? I don’t remember
They count in different circumstances, so why wouldn’t they?
Less load on the tyre since they are going very slow and not hitting the curbs? It does seem it is counted
It’d probably be hard to keep track of slow vs fast laps so it makes sense to count any and all laps.
reminder stay close
Hulkl Down!
This Alonso train sure is something. He’s actually going to buy the McLarens a pitstop window.
Damnit Nando, stop creating this kind of chaos
yes Hadjar and Russel must be loving it…
Norris staying ahead of Alonso is great for him. Good pit stop.
Antonelli secret McLaren agent. First Austria now this.
Crazy car performace for McLaren. Seeing this, one questions how max is even in this title battle
Indeed, this makes me suspect they’ll have enough pace to catch up to Verstappen in their last stint.
Not on hards they won’t.
Norris damage? He was pretty harsh on the curb there
Verstappen is gaining like crazy on him.
That was some coke-fuelled pit stop action. 1.8!?
bad pit stop for bearman
1.8s pit stop? Wow. McLaren did the same here two years ago.


Guys I think “papaya rules” means “fuck Norris over”
They fucked both of their drivers this race 😂
If it hadn’t been used to fuck over Piastri as much, I would agree. It’s just a stupid saying they have hoping that their drivers never have to actually go head to head directly.
not really they hoped for safety car and with no max they will have been safe potentially
