    Verstappen is an unstoppable machine…

    Happy for ocon and gasly as well!

    McLaren couldnt do it, not sure if the situation would be different without the pitstop tho. Many other mistakes as well, and max just faster overall.

      The pitstop was huge, but judging by Norris’s performance today he would have been powerless to challenge Verstappen regardless. He might have limited the damage though and kept his hopes alive for the following races.

    What a day. What a drive by Verstappen.

    Alpine leapfrogging to P6 in the WCC. Incredible.

    Absolute masterclass from max and red bull. Hamilton 2021 esque.

    Clearly proving that he is the best driver of the season even though he no longer has the fastest car

      It’s a shame we won’t be able to maintain the title fight delusion anymore for the rest of the season, but this was a cold shower for McLaren - both literally and figuratively. Neither the race strategists nor drivers are of a high enough calibre, and it’s really a shame since the mechanics, designers and factory workers have been amazing. Trying to root for them this season has been so damn frustrating it’s starting to make me feel hostile emotions about them.

        Absolutely brain dead from McLaren and Mercedes, I mean I don’t even understand what the thought was here. It was lose lose

        Well the mechanics, designers, engineers and factory personnel will be rewarded with the constructors championship. The pitwall and the drivers will rightly not be rewarded with a drivers championship.
