Actually we dont have the pace. We are slow
The pace was there, but Lando stinked it up when he had to put a lap in.
In the same period we were 0.7s off to Leclerc. Whats the question?

It's because he comes from a rich family. He's not hungry enough.

And Lando Norris is done after that. He doesnt have what it takes to be champion. All we can do is focus on the constructors to the remaining stages and focus on Piastri.

I thought McLaren would struggle in qualifying, but not to that extent. The team said sorry to Lando for something. Might not be Lando's fault for
going out in Q1.
There was a yellow flag. He told them over the radio. Engineer is sorry because it happened, it had nothing to do with the team.

But that they could have gone earlier, I think they could have.

Yellow flag cost him. Team apologised for putting him in that position. Disaster!

Do the team take an engine penalty here so there’s a further and more powerful engine in the pool for the remainder of the season?
I'm 100% sure they won't do this and later will say "we will learn from this mistake"

They weren't 0.7s off Leclerc. Leclerc set the laptime later. With tires that had done 2 fast laps already, Oscar was P3 and 0.2s off. Lando messed up the final corner and is out. Pretty simple.

At least nobody can say McLaren lost the WDC for Lando. He does not deserve it this year.

Team proves week by week that the strategy team is totally amateur.
Team didn't do anything. Massive track evolution and Lando did not set the lap in. He made a mistake.
Not sure he made a mistake, but he did have a yellow flag in s3.

He literally ran wide on the kerb out of 16.
