Hamilton much faster than us even on harder tyre.

Much faster yet behind us? With a DRS. Hard is probably now better than a medium - seeing as Albon pitted.

Piastri has similar pace to Russel.

You’re right. Hamilton not that quick after all.

No, you were right lol

Good job Piastri - keep your elbows out.

I feel sorry for Pia that he lost track position on.pit stops, but Norris appeared to have more speed.

We need to get Albon before Ham arrives, although he isn't motoring.

That was the only option that they had. If they pit piastri then LH would have stayed within DRS of Norris

Totally, just feel bad for Piastri. Until he hit Hamilton.

He's just destroyed his race.

Edit: nope I'm wrong Lewis smashed into him.

It wasn't really his fault here - but you have to defend hard. See how Ferrari is defending against faster Red Bull. Obviously there is risk involved but this is motor racing - not time trial.

Totally screwed PIA race

Penalty for Hamilton?

Come on Lando come on....

Yeah I noted it on a different post. Hamilton thinking his car finishes just behind his helmet.

I don't line how much Albon moves, even if it isn't in the braking zone.

On the edge of OK.

[101FlyingDutchman]

Totally called it. Albon totally destroyed McLarens race. The inability to overtake him has cost us very decent points

[Swed3121]

Hamilton using his standard tactics of pushing others of track when he can’t get pst them fairly.
Why are we even suprissed anymore, this is not how a 7 time wdc should be acting on track.

A shame about Albon, his heavy defending cost us a spot against Hamilton.

Decent race given the high drag, high downforce car. Compared to Spa it was much better with raceability.

Good pace by both drivers. Good job. Shame that we couldn't capitalize a bit more.

We weren't fast enough. But it was better than I was thinking, I expected our tyres to struggle more with a 44c track, but we looked good.
