F1 The Wash Up - Previous 2024 Race Weekends

[juice t]

McLaren removed the sandbags

 

[gaskin]

****ing Lando. Always has to pip Oscar by hundredths of a second.

 

[Iceman!]

That Red Bull is cooked

 

[largebus]

Lando has to be odds on to win the WDC now

 

[gaskin]

What a result for Lando for the title.

What the hell happened on that lap? Everyone going yellow with the odd purple sector.

 

[juice t]

That final sector from Norris really was something

It's still a big gap to overcome, not betting against Max yet.

 

[hotchilli]

Huge opportunity coming up for Lando in the race tomorrow to close the gap further!

 

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

Piastris 4th front row in qualifying. So close to pole again.

 

[my name was taken]

McLaren gonna get the whips out if anyone causes contact into the first chicane.

Hope not, but would understand why they would.

They will and should. While Lando has a shot at the title they have to do it.

I reluctantly agree.

Will lol if Norris misses out on the driver's championship because of Hungary.

Nah if max can keep finishing top 5 he wont haul the lead in. He needs a couple of DNFs.
But mclaren will surely win the constructors now (which should spell the end of checo but probably wont).

As for the rest today i thought dric did well as the RB is clearly slow on this track. Albon improved too.

If the race results stay the same as qualifying, then I reckon Norris is in like Flynn for the championship. No one can complain about team orders at the expense of Piastri for the rest of the season if it occurs.

He's the Bournemouth to Verstappen's Everton.

As a 1 eyed Oscar fan ill still cry, hoping norris bottles the start down to p3-4

McLaren need to nail their pitstops to win even from the front row as that car is slower in the straights than the Mercs and the Ferraris. Long run pace is very even among the top teams, should be a good race

I will complain about team orders until the end of time they shouldn't exist for any team or driver.

The manipulation would be worse if you didn't allow them.

It might be Norris' only chance to win a WC in his career and for Mclaren to do so in the near future.

On the flip side, if Mclaren is the best next season form the start, you want things to happen so that Piastri isn't undermined. That means playing the team game this year.

More important that they nail their starts for mine

 

[BomberFan355]

I hope it isn’t a follow the leader, DRS train type race.

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

Even if they nail their start you'd expect the top group will hang on to each other for a bit if the quali gaps are only 0.1 second, plus the long runs in practice had almost nothing in them to the top teams. DRS will be powerful. Whoever has track position after the pit stops will go on to win barring a safety car.

and justified

think stella and oscar have made it clear team orders aren’t in play at present. just be careful.
