As you know my friend : The SPA (Francorchamps) track is one of the fatest tracks in the world .
SPA will be cloudy and 24°C with possible light rain .

Red Bull got it with the RB20 completely wrong , from race 1 in this season .

I completely agree with his conclusions here.

Generally a very boring race today. At the start, not sure why Nor gets to just run Max off and then we see another dirty turn in by Ham - this guy has made a career out of this talentless driving.
I was really surprised Nor gave the position back...

If Max wins the WDC this year in the 3rd fastest car it will be quite something.

So basically RB failed MAX big time today with GP looking like clueless and MAX has Jos's blood so understandable that it's like father like son and hope MAX gave them all a belly full behind the scenes

Max being unhappy

It'll be like '21 again

So in Austria many Max fans called Lando for dive bomb overtakes as terrible, what was that overtake Max attempted, lots of mistakes from him today trying to get past. He is used to leading but when it comes to passing it’s toys and all the cars fault.

Don’t people call other drivers when they complain about the car being the problem.

Either way great race overall and a good gifted win for Piastri, I think McLaren will regret that at the end of the season. Great points hall for the Championship not for the drivers, only a mini break unti Spa so will be interesting to see how things play out next week. Great to see some close racing across a number of teams.

Max tried to go three wide in the first turn, no way to fit three F1 cars in that corner.

I am not a Hamilton fan but Max locked up and slid into him.

Max and RB gained their point lead from the early part of the season when RB was clearly the fastest car.

You were at the Hungaroring?

[Car-Addicted]

Nice come back from Checo to score some needed points and hold off George Russell on fresher tires and FTD.

Max needs to back off the I racing and get some sleep before race day. He's getting too cranky.

Horner has him & Perez there to piss off Marko.

Marko does not want Ric or Perez in the team.

There is an internal power struggle, they even threw a lady into the fire to get Horner out.

[G30M]

if the add up the points at the end and Lando is missing a few points then McLaren would be look very smug eh

with the McLaren sheet show i wouldn't worry, Oscar gets all the points so that Norris won't catch anyone

I think McLaren made a mistake.
Lando was around 85 points behind before today.
With 12 races to go, that's a possibe to overcome gap.
Now they missed 7 points in that (so the gap could've been 69 points, instead it's now 76 points). With that attitude.....are you still gonna win?
Winning a championship revolves around scoring maximum when your main competitor is down (and this was a very bad day for Max/RB).
We'll see at the end of the year how costly this mistake was.

"to cover Hamilton" who was like 10s behind lol Ferrari plan F that one

don't worry at the end of the year McLaren would have bled so many points for Norris they won't even know where they've lost them
