Look at Piastri's pace vs Norris.

Many small mistakes from the team, but no reason to be so rude guys.

Two bad strategy calls meant we threw away an easy 1, 2 or at worst 1,3 for a 3, 4.

That's throwing away 17 points for no reason.
At no point was that ever going to be an easy 1,2. Even if we had double stacked Oscar.

So, while McLaren was promoted to the second best team, Mercedes managed to snach 2 victories in the row, hmmm 🤔

bye bye then.

On topic.

Double stacking Piastri would probably get tem 1-2 alone.

It was landos call, his fault
He was told "Softs to fight Hamilton or mediums to fight Verstappen", what was he supposed to choose?

This team just ruined the race for both their drivers. It takes something impressive to mess up the race to this proportion not just for one, but for both of your drivers.

I don't know what sort of negative IQ you need to have to come up with the decisions they made this race.

Absolutely ridiculous strategy call to not doublestack Piastri, that was such an obvious wrong call.

Norris pitstop I can understand that it is hard to predict accurately but that is why you can go with Piastri early to start the cascade. And then instead of mediums they put softs.

Really frustrated by the race but I think we reduce gap to Red Bull in WCC.
