Very lucky. It should have been an 18-19 point massacre in the points table today.

It doesn't change anything though. Mclaren has the fastest car by miles and Red Bull needs to figure out how to beat Mercedes and Ferrari.

shame for that fastest lap by Norris, but I guess 8 points lost is much better than what we expected, unfortunately only thanks to how McLaren are being dumb

pace was atrocious, we can't rely only on Norris' mistakes

On f1tv they mentioned VER had to turn down the engine. Not sure how they know what those switches really meant
I read that message on multiviewer radio text too, GP told max they detuned and changed some settings so he might experience clipping. F1TV mentioned it late in the race though.
The cheapest sort of pride is national pride, every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.

the detuned PU is more bad news; I hope that if they did not take the opportunity to fit a new PU they are confident to be able to get to the end with the PUs they have, but I still have doubts

Marko just said that starting in Baku they will remove the in season upgrades to find the point where they got it wrong. They are expecting to lose like 20 points of downforce but are hoping to improve the handling.

Damage limitation today. We lost 8 points,quite ok. Thanks to Charles. Both drivers did their best. Its not all that bad, Max had a crazy pole 2 races ago in Spa, and a second place in Zandvoort. Monza was a track in which our balance was a total disaster. In next races we need to be at least on the podium, or just hoping that Mercedes and Ferrari will be ahead of Lando. Cmon boys, bring it home....

If this is true, then they conceded the championship and are focusing on saving the RB21 from being a failure which would have cost them not only 2025, but also cost them Verstappen.

Pleased for the rather minimum points damage limitation today.

Heres hoping the others step in to stop lando taking more and more points. Its our only hope for Max WDC.

Yeah absolutely correct. I might be slightly silly but I want Ferrari being the fastest race car from now on, or Mercedes. In the case we dont fix our car of course, maybe in couple of races everything will go back to normal. At least to the level Max has a good front-end and can fight...

The upgrades were not wrong when they were winning races why would they be wrong now.
