What a great race. So happy for Ferrari and Charles.

Damage limitation for Max and bravo to Lando for snatching the fastest lap back on the last lap.

Loser of the day: Lando's sulky loser face. So over it.

Cool down room? More like deep freeze room. So awkward when the replay of Oscar passing Lando was being played for the drivers!

We're in for a cracker 8 races, chaps!
 
McLaren threw the race away with their "anything goes" attitude. If they kept positions at the start and looked after their tyres without fighting each other, they could have 1-stopped and ended up 1-2.

Also, it seems that they are just not interested in the Driver's championship. They have thrown away 10 points in the charge to overtake Verstappen...

Well its probably like the last 10 laps of Piastri chasing Leclerc. Everyone thinks its possible, but in reality its not really going to happen. They can only win the Championship if something really bad goes wrong for Verstappen. Like a DNF or two. So I think they not concentrating on it.
My guess is more that they know the young Piastri is their better driver for the future and don't want to piss him off.

Lando needs to take a good long look in the mirror and and ask himself if he really wants this championship. Then rock up to Baku in "serious business" mode.

Man the title race gets a bit closer after today! Nice drive by Charles, poor luck for George. Both Ferrari and McLaren are now that much closer to Red Bull. Going to be a great last 3rd of the season!

At this rate RB may not even make 3rd in the constructors. I just want more of today.

Google is my friend. They're both Haas reserves...

Ollie already proved earlier this year that he has what it takes to be in F1. Heck, he could add to his points haul that is currently tied withAlbon and Magnussen.

I'd guess Ollie would be preferable so he can gain confidence and experience.

Geez, amateur hour over there. You actually feel for the guy surrounded by a "midpack" team.

Mixed feelings on this one. Taking his response at face value in some ways they should be doing their job but perhaps he's not as used to being midfield without the necessary urgency for such updates.
