Yea. McLaren have figured it out, and I have to admit Lando is driving beautifully. They’re looking good for the constructors and Lando is up to +350 for the drivers. Who knows.
'"Everything is now sorted," the F1 team owner declared on Sunday at Zandvoort.
Kinda cool any time an F2 guy gets a shot.
Pretty amazing how quickly egos can destroy an organization
I know nothing about the contracts but all things being equal you would have to. George is a top 10 driver but hasn’t looked like the future world champion Merc had hoped for.
Toto to George:
I suspect that's why Lewis wanted to give it a go at The Scuderia.
I prefer watching the McLarens race, but not treating Lando as the #1 could cost him the drivers title. Today and Hungary is 10 points already…
He’s got a pretty big problem in that all the drivers know he is soft, and getting bullied by nice guy teammate Piastri is the last thing he needed. Now the media are starting to get on him.
I try to figure this out and it’s tricky to understand. My understanding fwiw, obviously may be wrong:
Piastri is a quiet killer. Going back to his I won’t be driving for Alpine tweet. The elbows out move in the chicane showed enormous stones. His quote Sunday about Stroll acting like it was his first time carting was gold. My second favorite driver after ALO.
It was nice to read the Italians got to celebrate a home team win for a change in Monday mornings paper.
If I’m Max I wait to see who gets the new car right in 2026 and then go there.
I’m guessing Newey got some equity on top of his huge salary. Rumor is AM has been doling out equity to employees to avoid the cost cap.
If Newey delivers big time and Lance wins a race, it would be pretty funny and probably a black eye for F1 to have such a hack win a GP.
