Piastri nooo
I need to see the replay but it didn’t look like his fault either.
Sainz locked up and then just didn’t have awareness and turned in on Piastri.
Just saw the replay and that’s definitely what happened. More of a racing incident, but you can’t put much blame on Piastri.
It was 100% on Sainz, but still probably a racing incident. Chaotic lap 1 stuff rarely gets punished (and shouldn’t).
Let’s go Oscar! Not sure how the McLaren is gonna hold up on race pace tbh, but hoping for a good result nonetheless.
Well…
I was not amused
It was great to see the sprint race post being quite lively yesterday compared to what I’ve seen previously around here.
Hope the pace keeps up and we get some good content here today.
Also, go Oscar! Been waiting sooo long to see my team back at the front.
Sprint races are pretty good for people that are not so much into F1, it was lively enough for my gf to be able to watch the entire 11 laps without being bored! It’s a different pleasure, less long term strategy and more track action! :)
Starting grid accounting for Max and Magnussen penalties

Poor hulk
Shocking race pace by McLaren.
That double overtake on him, yikes.
And now he got overtaken by an Alpha Tauri, woof.
Yeah, Lando got Zonta’ed.
Those glasses though…
I’ve never felt so uneasy about a common apparel. Then again, there really wasn’t anything “common” about those glasses. 😂
Tsunoda up to 6th. Wow.
Do you guys think they’ll retire Sainz once he falls out of points?
I’d be surprised if he continues much longer tbh
Colour me surprised…
Ferrari: “Hold my carbon fiber.”
Yuki heard people praising Daniel yesterday I guess. He’s had a blistering start.
He’s looks good so far. Definitely a good chance for points if he keeps the car on track.
Bernard was waving his green flag with such enthusiasm! Great that Crofty remembered him, that was quite wholesome.
Gasly extending those Softs is impressive, if the rain comes soon it could be phenomenal for him.
He’s still on the tyres from lap 1? Wow.
Gasly is having a great weekend.
Let’s go. Need some excitement. That snap for VER was scary.
What did McLaren do to get cursed with this luck.
Aston Martin is making the exact same gamble that didn’t work in Monaco
Don’t remind me. That really is going to end up being Nando’s last genuine shot at a win, isn’t it?
And now Mercedes did it with Russell too!
Perez cutting over and then going for the inside caused utter chaos behind him 🤣
