Max P1, Lando P2.. Have you guys seen the trophy for this weekend? It's not going to survive the podium celebrations

What an amazing lap by Leclerc at the end of Q1. when everyone else going slower because of the rain, he managed to find enough time to bring it into Q2 while drifting into the last corner. I wouldn't say Ferrari broke him tho, his crash in Q3 was all on him.

What a chaotic start. Loved it!

Shame Lando really lost out on the late pit for inters.

Max is being ridiculous again. Comes out on inters 15 sec behind Perez, and catches up to him within a couple of laps. That man/car combo is just a different league than everyone else

Max came out 40+sec behind Perez after his 2st pit for inters

When Max was 3rd, he was 13secs behind Zhou and he only took 2 laps to overtake.... And Zhou at that time was 11sec behind Perez...

Wait, was it 40? I'll need to rewind afterwards and double check that. I swear I saw 15. If true, that's just aliens levels of unbelievable

edit: Double checked. It was 14.2. Maybe you mixed up the times between the drivers vs 'from top to bottom'

Man, full wets are such a scam in F1. Any team who goes for them to keep their drivers safe is immediately punished for it, as the race will always get red flagged

Call me naive, but I'd much rather have every team be forced to put on wets by the race director than always stopping the race when it starts to pour down.
