great marketing strategy to apologize for Oscar's form.

but i can't make out if the pic is O for oscar or just the top view of his helmet
You are over thinking it. It’s just a burger. ;)

But not overthinking it as much as someone that doesn’t understand that if you have two really quick drivers taking points from one another it is not possible to run away with a season as we have seen for the last decade. It also opens up a 3 way tussle and leads to the best season in years.

So last week I had a Piastri burger. It turned out to be one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Sensational.

However there is apparently a curse. So today I switched to wings. I’m hungry.
Black top bun with papaya seeds? Nah I'd give it a miss :lol: :D

After a few tequilas he's anybodies, ask his wife re. Monaco where he 'won' :D

You think he's been dominant? 7 wins in 21 races qualifies for dominant?
To me dominant is where you control the season, end to end, and put up race wins and podiums with clockwork like consistency. IMO no one has had a dominant season unless you sum up both Mclaren drivers, in which they still wont have, together, a season like 2023...and even yet have not matched Max's 2022 season. The best driver this year has been Max, and as much as I don't like him Rus is probably second. Pia and Nor would be maybe in there for 3rd or 4th but Lec would be in the running too. IMO the Mclaren drivers have largely underperformed where they otherwise should have.
They SHOULD have had a dominant season given the car but realistically neither were able to really pull away from a field that was further back than we've seen in a long time.
Beyond that, the last 8 races Pia has only scored I think less than 60 points - again, not at all dominant when Max in an inferior car has score 126 or something like that and overall still has 5 wins in a car that simply wouldnt even be contending for anything without his driving prowess.
piastri, max, lando have been the dominant forces all year. There's a fight for the drivers championship right now and they excluded the driver who led the fight for most of the season.

Sure, pia has fallen from form, and the MCL drivers each could have done better, we've all been paying attention. But there's a 3 way fight and they only included 2 of the 3 in their promo picture... Even Russel has been doing pretty well and they included him. But to skip on Pia for ham/sainz... crazy.

I agree it's kind of a 3 way fight. Most of the year it really hasnt been. No doubt in my mind, if RB had only 3 or 4 better races prior to mid year, Max would be leading the points and winning again in an inferior car, but unless Pia and Nor decide to kamikaze and DNF 1 or 2 of the final races, it will be theirs unfortunately, despite how undeserving they both are for their lackluster racing, but that's my view. Again, they've dominated the season if you combine results, but for most anyone, Max has stood out by outperforming a bad car in a way I've only seen Schumacher do (even though I was took young to really watch him).
I agree on the latter. Ham, if he wasnt driving for Ferrari, he'd be a long lost memory already. Sai - also no one really cares. Very good driver, no question but Alb has largely shown him up this season.

Just saw Bottas going through security at Sydney airport. I told him he looks even more handsome in real life. 😛

Still wonder when McLaren goes for a Merc PU replacement...

I'm pretty sure the papaya clock is ticking (!)

Strange they're leaving it late, maybe NOR in LV and PIA in Qatar.

The target is there and is reachable with the clear and present pressure that MAX thrives on. The McLaren new PU's have to come and if anything the pressure on the papaya now is double than that on RBR with Norris already admitting that LV won't be good.
Pretty nice Vegas livery for the VCARB cars I think:

All those lines are probably Vegas lights flashing by or something like that...
