I've said it before, but the over praise for Oscar was just that, and probably the over reaction to some poor form will also be OTT. But he has been inconsistent, but I was disappointed in Austin and this is also disappointing.
And here's the first of them 😄😉
I think he's good! Just not as good as some claimed, when he struggles he isn't as bad as some claim.

He's allowed to be a bit inconsistent.

On this track and at this stage of these regs, the gap behind Lando is a big one.

Clean air is very important here. Here's praying for pole.

It's frustrating to make mistakes like these when you are looking at resurgent Ferrari and hopes for WCC.

Norris would have had a much better chance for WDC if Piastri could match his pace in qualifying and many races.

It’s got to a point for me now where I’m rooting for Verstappen to beat the Ferraris :lol:

At this point what is worse? To have two Ferraris behind or to have Max with his out of bounds divebombs behind?

It might be the smart thing to do.

I am absolutely certain if Max is P2 with Lando P1 tomorrow, he will do his best to screw both their races up and gift Ferrari another 1-2. It's looking like a disaster for the WCC tomorrow ncncnc.

Yeah. Max fighting to seal his WDC will jeopardize McLaren WCC.

Hopefully we get some luck. Floor seems to be working.

Not if Norris covers the inside and then once the turn arrives push Max to the outside. In any case best of luck for Q3. We got two new sets. Can we make a high 1.15 in a mega lap?

Pretty sure that had to be out of track limits for Verstappen.
