what a dumb move by Oscar and by the team for not having clear rules of engagement.
Oscar is out of the championship, Lando has a distant chance. This team is allergic to the WDC.

Oscar is the better driver

I can understand them being allowed to battle but not so its detrimental to the other driver

I’m certain that Lando could be faster than Leclerc and Piastri

But he is not going after WDC. He is part of a team that should try to maximize its chances to take WDC. Norris lost another place which means less points for WCC.

That position that Norris lost was due to Norris avoiding a possible collision because Piastri was a little reckless there.

Oscar nearly took Russell out with hips butt before being a bit too aggressive with Lando. Not great.

I would mind less if that move was against someone else. It was brave and aggressive. Against your own team mate, it's also stupid.

Tough racing but maybe the team should support Norris while the opportunity is there.

Oscar nearly took Lando out. If Lando didn't stop they would have collided and that is why he lost that 2nd place. I don't know what the team is doing. Piastri isn't helping Norris at the moment by creating a DRS train.

It should have been Norris then Piastri with both working giving DRS to each other pulling from the opposition. This was a disaster.

To be clear, it was strong but fair. But for me any move shouldn't cost the team any places, it should be a fair swap. That was too much for me.

Our drivers should work on the 1-2 and start giving DRS to each other to pull away. Now they screwed each other.

The good thing is that Piastri has Leclerc out of DRS. It's up to Norris to catch Leclerc and take back 2nd and then decide with team orders. Norris now started catching Leclerc. He has to get that 2nd place back and then let's see if he can get 1st back.

I imagine Oscar wants to show why he doesn't have to support Lando.
