Another classic race start from Lando.

Fuck sake Oscar. Didn't remember Hungary then.

Woof, fair play Piastri. Great move.

Don't think Lando did anything wrong there. He wasn't going to risk taking Piastri out.

Really should have kept that to a minimum until they pulled out further. Bad race management there.

Confident Lando will come good so long as McLaren don't let this compound by giving him an inferior strat.

Surely they’ve had the race orders convo. They shouldn’t be racing at all.

It's fine if they aren't fussed about the WDC, but you'd think the team would be.
It just wasn't a sensible pass on your team mate. Do that on anyone else and they'd just ease you off the road. Lando was very polite.

I’d wager he was less polite on the radio but we’ve heard sod all.

I suspect Mclaren didn’t expect to rival Max at this stage. Doesn’t seem like they have orders of Norris first.

Leclerc is looking good.

Maybe not. Unless he's going longer.

Maybe not. Unless he's going longer. Wasn’t this the same as other race when Mclaren seemed to kick on around 12-14 laps in.

Damn! Watch out Norris ha

Flat spotted those old tyres on the way to the pits there!

Post by muddyfunster on Sept 1, 2024 13:25:34 GMT
Bit odd. Seemed like he was just about to pass Leclerc on track.
This is kind of what I meant by don't compound the issue.

Are we all keen proponents of team orders now, then?

Are we all keen proponents of team orders now, then? Yes because only Lando can realistically win the WDC (of the two) and we're in the second half of the season. Pretty standard for F1.

Lando's cruised into the dirty air of Piastri. Need to swap them now.

Post by muddyfunster on Sept 1, 2024 13:47:24 GMT
Lando had a slow lap there. Think his tyre's gone.

Post by muddyfunster on Sept 1, 2024 13:51:08 GMT
Slow stop too. Compound issues ahoy. Could've been smooth sailing in clear air at the front but instead he's constantly having to fight.
It's sport ultimately but it's not very team sport. They could've swapped them when I said and had an easy 1-2 in the best order for the WDC.

Is being a radio whinger a requirement for RBR? Not sure what Perez was complaining about with Russell, he gave the position back and he's racing again which, er, is his job.
|

Post by muddyfunster on Sept 1, 2024 13:59:31 GMT
And Lando can't pass Max and is in dirty air once again. Max will show him the gravel given half a chance I'm sure.

Well I don't think Lando can win this organically from 4.5s back and 6 lap older tyres. Will need team orders.
