Max is really being a bigger baby than usual today. “He moved under breaking” my god man you George Russel’d him, you dove like a Herron at a fish

How have McLaren made a 1-2 into a controversial thing.

l_b_i@yiffit.net · 7 pts · 2y

They're not the first. Faster than you, multi 21...

lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 2y

Holy shieeet Max's car went up high.

hagelslager@feddit.nl · 13 pts · 2y

Least celebrated 1-2 finish?

Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de · 13 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Piastri is the least happy I have seen anybody be on their maiden grand prix win

Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y (2 replies)

He was always going to be a bit stoic, but it's something about winning under team orders must take the shine off.

Microw@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 2y

a bit stoic

Oscar "Marcus Aurelius" Piastri

reddit_sux@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Well it's better than losing under team foolishness.

In all this drama a brilliant one stopper by yuki is going under the radar

epygots@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y (3 replies)

This season keeps getting better and better.

Sad for Piastri tho :(

SMillerNL@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

For winning?

jungle@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

For how he won.

epygots@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

I wrote that as Norris built up the gap 😅

Thade780@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 2y (1 reply)

These drone chases are making me nauseous.

SMillerNL@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Yes, that was awful since it was also only one corner

Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de · 11 pts · 2y

What the flying fuck are McLaren doing

The big McLaren team radio war of Hungary 2024

lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 2y

They swapped positions 👀👀👀👀

Doesn't feel like a win Piastri deserves.

Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de · 10 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Well the first two stints were brilliant from him. Yeah there will always be this argument that he was not fast enough but who knows what would have happened if he pitted 1st

t0fr@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 2y

He was quick. But team strategy screwed him over. He should have beenn pit first. It was safe for him to do so. And he could have just let the race all the way to the end. Would have been much more satisfying

4am@lemm.ee · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I disagree, Lando not even in contention if the team didn’t undercut Piastri. Piastri deserved first service and then opportunity to maintain the lead he managed to hold (regardless of whether or not the cars make it easy to maintain a lead it’s still the work he did).

If Lando thinks he deserved it today, in his own words “tell him to catch me then”

t0fr@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 2y

It's just a win that leaves a sour taste in McLaren's mouth. Either way, it's not what Piastri deserves for a first win

Microw@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Doesnt feel like a win Lando deserves either. They essentially took it away from each other.

t0fr@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 2y

Yeah, that's true. I wouldn't want to get my first win by team orders that were necessary because of a team failure at strategy

Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de · 10 pts · 2y

The rate at which red bull and Max are unraveling, a title battle is still possible

alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 2y (2 replies)

What did sim racers ever did to Crofty?

Thade780@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y (1 reply)

He probably plays in public lobbies.

SatouKazuma@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

That's just masochism

Microw@lemm.ee · 9 pts · 2y

McLaren tactics by undercutting Piastri with Norris? Lol they want to re establish the order now

hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 9 pts · 2y

Mental boom caught live

Edit: Netflix must be salivating

Did Piastri fuck Zak's wife or why do they hate him so much?

SatouKazuma@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

I really hope he signs elsewhere because of this

TheRealKuni@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Max is such a little bitch when he’s not winning.

4am@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 2y

God, seriously; this is such a footbol/soccer flop and it was obvious to everyone

Thade780@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

What I can't understand is why his race engineer didn't tell him he was wrong and to stop complaining.

4am@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 2y

Because if you don’t stand your ground until it seems inevitable you’ll be ruled against then you have already admitted defeat to the stewards, which is why the investigation ended at the moment they saw him give the place back

reddit_sux@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

He did finally say that.

Thade780@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Must have missed it. Thanks!

Microw@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Max with his classic divebomb and Lewis just turning in like that lol

l_b_i@yiffit.net · 13 pts · 2y

No matter where Lewis was, I don't think Max was making that corner. I'm surprised neither of them have significant damage.

wurstgulasch3000@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Let's see if lando fucks up the start again and loses the lead before the first corner

l_b_i@yiffit.net · 5 pts · 2y

Well...

FrostyTrichs@walledgarden.xyz · 3 pts · 2y

Thanks, I hate it.

l_b_i@yiffit.net · 7 pts · 2y (3 replies)

I only first noticed it yesterday, but the McLarens have e-ink displays next to the drivers that periodically change ads. I guess I've just not noticed it for more than a year.

TheRealKuni@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Seems like a waste of weight. I wonder why they don’t just use stickers.

Thade780@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y

So much sass from Lando.

lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Fantastic start for Piastri. Norris unfortunately doesn't have a good track record of holding onto the lead during race start.

Please don't screw up the strategy, McLaren.

urquell@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 2y

Woops

cheddar@programming.dev · 6 pts · 2y

I have a subjective feeling that Piastri's race pace is getting closer to Norris' race pace. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out today, especially if both cars stay ahead of Max at the start.

Thade780@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Lando and Max just being childish today

4am@lemm.ee · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Seems that whoever grabs the lead can make a break over the following cars and no one can catch them. We all thought it was Max/Red Bull but perhaps that’s just how these cars are? Just cannot be touched in clean air?

TheRealKuni@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

The McLaren is clearly the fastest car today on this circuit, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that if they get ahead they run off with it.

Obviously the cars do behave better in clean air, but they’re much less tied to it than they were three years ago.

Million@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 2y

Nice race to watch!

McLaren put the drivers in a real awkward spot. Telling lando there will be lots of opportunities in the future and to give the spot back must have been real tough on lando, when you chased tour first victory for so long, and bow have the chance to double your score.

You can tell that oscar wasnt over the moon as well, even when he has won his first ever F1 race!

McLaren has a bright rest of the season ahead with these two amazing drivers and their car!

Britney is such a drama queen. Pretty sure he could have a career in gutter press.

dimspace@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

What odds Perez and Russel crashing into each other at the first corner :D

l_b_i@yiffit.net · 2 pts · 2y

Messing with stuff at the last second is never a good sign.
