Good stuff for Sainz with P3
Love to see it
That was some coke-fuelled pit stop action. 1.8!?
Antonelli secret McLaren agent. First Austria now this.

Damn. Mega unlucky for Hadjar. He was flying today.

Damn, this 'Abu' guy came out of left field to nab the championship.
what a beast!
Piastri looks so out of it on the podium. Still thinking how his team has cost him the race.
Race direction AGAIN failing to show actual gaps between cars... Morons.
Finally, intervals at lap 11... -_-
I can't imagine watching F1 without Multiviewer.
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.
This Alonso train sure is something. He's actually going to buy the McLarens a pitstop window.
yes Hadjar and Russel must be loving it....
Damnit Nando, stop creating this kind of chaos
This has the potential to be:
- A tedious procession
- A massive controversy
- A thrilling penultimate race
watching it on my PC instead of the TV so I can start up a game at the same time...
Choo Choo train

Is that Kimi going slowly?
they did not show I hate how they skip most important stuff at the end.
Either damage, puncture or maybe low fuel or something. He was crawling for that last two laps.
1.8s pit stop? Wow. McLaren did the same here two years ago.
bad pit stop for bearman
Norris damage? He was pretty harsh on the curb there
Verstappen is gaining like crazy on him.
Welcome back "penalty for not serving penalty correctly" Ocon.
Edit: No further investigation.


Drama already.
Nooo hulk!
Now the true pace advantage of the McLaren cars will be revealed. At least for the first few laps, their pace has been incredible.
reminder stay close
Damn hadjar on his way out at 2 lap til the end!
If they don't make Lando the P1 driver now if Max is ahead of both of them next race they are even dumber than we've already seen.
