The McLarens really rocking today.

Oh dear George, loses first and then second very quickly.

Can't believe Hamilton is still stuck. Not seen him in clear air at all today, but academic now unless there's a safety car.

Norris is absolute class in the moderately damp.
Piastri doing well too of course but he's generally half a second or more away.
If the rain makes it much wetter could favour red bull (and Merc) though.

Bloody Sargent. Always ruining races.

Did the SC actually pick up Norris there? Yet to see it. If not he might still get his stop.

Oh FFS, that's annoying for Lando.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 18:45:20 GMT
Argh. Shame for Norris but he can do it again. He'd pulled out 8s in 4 laps before that SC.
Let's see if Hamilton can do anything from there.

Fuck's sake, Lando screwed by his speed and the timing of the safety car call.

Can Williams please hire a No2 who isn't a total liability and doesn't routinely cause safety cars and red flags.
It's ridiculous how often this has happened on Latifi's and Sargeant's watch.

Meanwhile Albon has just pulled off one of the best moves of all time.

Perez update: still 16th.

Hamilton's clearly got pace. So question is, was he stuck behind the Aston because the Aston is exceptionally low drag, or is the Merc high drag and unable to pass in general?

Likely penalty for Lando, unsafe rejoin.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:11:23 GMT
Like that from Lewis. Worth a go.

Post by Whizzo on Jun 9, 2024 19:11:48 GMT
Come on Lewis, bit of a gamble but it's the right move surely?

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:13:25 GMT
Likely penalty for Lando, unsafe rejoin. Not unsafe as he kept well right, and he didn't gain as such as he stayed as far behind George and lost to Piastri. He did cause George to also lose time though. Not sure how the rule works in that scenario.

Not sure what McLaren are doing with Lando.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:14:14 GMT
I think Norris has this right.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:15:21 GMT
Ah one lap too far I think looking at the times.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:17:32 GMT
Shit, yeah staying out one extra lap smart, two not smart.

McLaren fucked it.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:18:42 GMT
Hamilton one second faster than Max on that lap.

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:20:03 GMT
Piastri suddenly slow. Problem?

Post by muddyfunster on Jun 9, 2024 19:25:31 GMT
Anyone else spot Norris casually removing a tear off as he passed George there? Almost dropped it as he did so.

Poor Alex. That's so unlucky.
Classic iRacing HOLD YOUR BRAKES error from Sainz.
