Today the team worked well. And Fernando looks like a computer during the race, trying to make something useful out of nothing.

The car seems to have somewhat better traction although other people's disasters have also helped us. The race pace is still quite bad, although Fernando knows how to "optimize" it by first controlling the car behind and then doing 38,000 mental simulations per minute to try to stay as high as possible.

The news regarding the team are excellent, thank you very much Mr. Stroll.

A shame that we are late to stand out this year. Although I hope for some joy in the form of an almost podium before finishing...

What a race wow, I thought Albon was a lost fight at some point. Amazing qualy & race for Fernando, nearly perfect weekend and probably the best this year, up there with Jeddah and Suzuka.

Team simulations said P12-P13 :lol: Incredible

Look how much the mclaren's rear wing flex in high speed too. Front wing can be flexible? ohh OK now we have the rear wing flexible. Has anyone ever seen this

You was right, it is like a mini DRS as the instagram post is saying.

It is like red bull 2021 flex wing and the FIA at the time banned it so they should do the same

This is why Leclerc with DRS couldn’t pass Piastri

Stint number 2 and 3. First stint, then pit then second stint, then if they pit 2nd time 3rd stint.

You can't really go by those numbers. Alonso wasgoing flat out trying to stay ahead of Albon....many other cars had given up.

What no comment? 1s slower/lap than Russell front of him and we should be happy about the tyre degradation? Go 1 1sec faster and lets see that tyre degradation.

Of course not, but early in the season, they were 1 second slow and probably destroy tires too

Also on the other end... after the early issues, Stroll was the only one to do a two-stopper. So there was no need at all to save the tires - in contrary. He had to go full out to have any chance of making it work.

Earlier in the season, Bahrain, Japan or Saudi Arabia, they were quicker in relation to the top4.

They absolutely made no gains, ALO just managed his tyres perfectly, but the gap to the front runners doesn`t lie...

Is the non return of the Russia race the reason for the 1 month Gap in the schedule?

Yes, as these had been late September races since like 2018 or something. Small price to pay.

Track sucks anyways.

Finally, everyone knows that Red Bull is a joke and Max Verstappen is overrated.
