LEW on the radio : Let me know where I'm too slow ...

Well LEW , actually everywhere (!)

That might be a problem this season....

LEW is a problem too ...

GuidoK · 03-15-2025, 11:49 PM

It's already clear......It's Max against both McLarens...
RUS isn't even in sight anymore. My guess is that the complete season will be like this, 3 cars battling FTW

Maybe the difference in experience is the reason.

I think Oscar will be the better driver in another 1-2 years. That’s probably why they extended his contract and are paying him the same as Lando. He doesn’t make too many mistakes and is pretty cool headed

C'mon Charlie nail that bitch ...

HFW003 · 03-15-2025, 11:50 PM

Go Oscar!

HFW003 · 03-15-2025, 11:52 PM

It’s starting to rain down the straight

GuidoK · 03-15-2025, 11:52 PM

Max goes wide! and PIA overtakes

A small mistake but in Max terms... a huge one.....

toxik · 03-15-2025, 11:52 PM

mclaren is an impressive machine

LAP 18 : MAX's tyres are overheated and he locked up in a very strange way . Oscar is P2 ...

MAX's rear looked always very slippery (!)

Lawson is P15 ...

GuidoK · 03-15-2025, 11:57 PM

Pitting Max for slicks would be a very bold move.
Maybe faster, but how do you overtake with wet patches next to the racing line....

Those inters have to be crap by now***

///M Power-Belgium · 03-16-2025, 12:01 AM

Yuki is P6 and it looks great for the little Japanese .

Would love to see the little guy in the RB21 on MAX's side..

Just keep pushing Yuki . And the RB21 seat is yours (!)

Marko's 'one eye is allover you

GuidoK · 03-16-2025, 12:02 AM

LEC now almost 2sec/lap faster than HAM.....wow...

HFW003 · 03-16-2025, 12:02 AM

Oscar is catching Norris easily now. Can’t wait for the papaya rules!

M4Lou · 03-16-2025, 12:03 AM

lol! Leclerc w/ a busted water bottle and a swamped cockpit!

GuidoK · 03-16-2025, 12:04 AM

lol @ LEC...

can't wait for the lollypopmen extend their memes with this.....

toxik · 03-16-2025, 12:04 AM

The papaya car is extremely friendly for their tyres . They seem to last forever.
The balance of the McLaren car is not from this world (!)

Just like last season. It's just Fkn unbelievable ...

GuidoK · 03-16-2025, 12:07 AM

the gap the McLarens are now pulling on Max now it's dry is mega....
In the dry....the McLarens are king, and their tyredeg is stellar. Nothing new of course compared to the 2nd half of last year.

edit: MPB you beat me to it, we are definately watching the same race

The McLarens are so fast. How they’re not burning through these inters is beyond me. And Max is probably not pushing to conserve tires. The sorcery behind the McLarens is amazing
