Just have to hope Max's tyres fall off before the end

What 1-2?

Mclaren fans need to stop smoking!
I mean how have we enabled a likely Mercedes 1-2

I'm not saying Piastri should have tried 1 stop but he definitely should have.

I feel Lando could've tried that, he was faster than Russel when they pitted him

Very poorly managed race overall, again, unfortunately.

Pace wasn't good on high fuel anyway. At least they can let go of WDC dreams now because neither Lando nor the team is ready for that this year.

Piastri was 5sec in front of Russel with fresher tires, kind of easy decision if you think outside of the box

Oscar Piastri could have gone for 1 pit stop. Rusell proved it today.

Awful from the team today, an obvious slam dunk one stop for the OP win. Unbelievable.

I’m usually not critical but today that was poor.

Amazing drive from Piastri. He could have had more

Easy decision with hindsight. I don't think anyone would have thought that would genuinely work though. Fair play to Russell, he gambled and made it work.

I mean Piastri did fastest lap on 17 lap old tire, that might give you a hint.

Team were telling Lando he could push the hards the moment he put them on. They knew.

Both of our drivers could have gone till the end. Yet another shitty strategy from the team. Still we got more points than Red Bull and Ferrari. Mercedes got more points than us.
