You read it here first. Mika Hakkinen is not on drugs.

This race shows that it will eventually pay of to terminate RIC’s contract.

Special. Had the pace for 2-3 and only a SC took Piastri to 4th

What a comeback from the team this year. I am looking forward to some similar circuits :D Suzuka could be spectacular if the upgrades keep rolling

Hats off to Norris and Piastri

I doubted the decision of the team but they had their strategy in order very well. Hards were the way to go for them. Too bad Piastri lost out with the SC. Bad luck for him but he drove very well also and more podium opportunities will come for him I’m sure.

Very good for the team. A well earned P2-P4 on merit being 2nd best team today and leading a GP also on merit. Let's not forget we made Verstappen sweat to get rid of us more than any other team this year and the upgrade isn't over yet. Very good defence from Lando over Lewis most impressive for our car to heat up the tyres very quickly. Unlucky for Piastri to have been screwed by the Safety Car but still his best result so far. The new technical team created an upgrade that the opponents are praising about. Next target Verstappen.

Yes!!!! I hope the push on with the upgrades this year and not postpone to 2024. Looking good, shame for Piastri, was on for a podium. It'll come, it'll come.
Q: (Stefano Mancini – La Stampa) Kimi, will you help Vettel to win his championship this year?

I think they might have found something with the new floor. It's not on Red Bull level yet but I have a feeling it's close.

Not yet Paul G. The target is 1st place on merit. That is where the team belongs. On their rightful throne who was abandoned for many years and defiled by other teams.

The team has to push for more upgrades that will give them that big of a leap like this one.
