Good grief, disasterclass strategy by McLaren.

[โ€“] l_b_i@yiffit.net 12 points 1 year ago

not hitting your marks in the pits doesn't help.

[โ€“] Bademantel@feddit.de 13 points 1 year ago

Sad to see that Mclaren is employing some Ferrari strategy: not double stacking a lap after it would have been ideal, choosing the soft tires over the mediums for Lando...

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hamilton!!!!!!

This season has been a blessing.

This season has been a blessing.

Considering how the season started, this has been the best bait and switch

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

An RBR and a Ferrari lapping an RBR and a Ferrari lol

(Sorry I'm a few minutes behind I think)

[โ€“] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow left Piastri to fend for himself. Should've double stacked like the Mercedes.

[โ€“] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I feel like he still has a good chance to make up a few places on a drying track. McLaren was rapid on mediums during the first rain period.

VER HAM

OR

HAM VER

is back on the menu boys.

Come on typical British weather, we are counting on you

I didn't know I can be this happy when Lewis Hamilton wins. What two years can do! The race was awesome, laps flew by with an unbelievable speed. It's such a joy to be an F1 fan on a day like today.

PS: Yet another Mercedes win in a row, who will finally stop them? ๐Ÿ˜‚

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Am I the only one, or is Toto's smile wider today than last week when George won?

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 year ago

Well Hamilton is the most loved British driver, has been with the team for years and this victory was proper on merit

[โ€“] smeg@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

They lucked their way into last week's victory, they earned this one

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Toto and Lewis are friends. Toto and George are employer and employee.

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

So you are telling me the PowerPoint didn't ignite the spark of friendship? I am shocked! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

I'm really curious to hear why Max's pace was so slow until the last stint. I wasn't expecting him to end up second until then.

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago

Wow piastri has been completely sacrificed. What a poor call by McLaren

[โ€“] Bademantel@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago

What a blunder for Ferrari with Leclerc again...

[โ€“] Thade780@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

No, George!

[โ€“] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

What a race. Didn't take a moment away to chat here.

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

At long last the drought is over. What a race!

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago

The absolute fuck is going on

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Great move for max that. He can go after the mercs now

[โ€“] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Red Bull not even being subtle with the Perez sabotage

What about Leclerc. Completely botched his strategy.

[โ€“] t0fr@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Two easy passed on Max by McLaren ๐Ÿ‘€

Max down to 5th wow. Hamilton takes the lead!

Great start for Leclerc, making up 3 spots.

[โ€“] bund@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

strolls start was really great !

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

I am wagering that the Red bulls are not able to put the tyre into the right window. Max is just so slow

Max is currently blitzing the field.

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Funny how we talked about british bias earlier and Lewis once again shows how he is the only driver allowed to go to the grandstands instead of going straight to the post-race interviews

[โ€“] Microw@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

The on track action in that movie teaser looked so obviously animated..

Though we do know that they shot actually footage on track both with Brad Pitt in the car and with proper ex drivers as stand-ins.

What happened there

[โ€“] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Wow those mercs looking quick
