No kidding - w/ McLaren pace you would think he'd pass easily.

The McLaren is not so strong when it follows another car in dirty air.

Mate . Please read my post # 273 => https://www.m3post.com/forums/showpost.php?p=31414788&postcount=273

The Larens gain 11 points on RB in the Constructors, so not a great disaster and expected, thank goodness for Charlie.

And Lando wins!
Clearly the fastest today. A very good race except for the start. He wins with the largest marge of the season.

For the rest a boring race. The most excitement was LEC keeping PIA at bay (basically...nothing happened), and the strategic flaw of MERC pitting RUS late in the race to do.......I don't know. He lost is place to PER, where I believe he could've defended against PER.
Ferrari was definately stronger than expected.

Charlie ran P3 , your boy ran a great race !

Congratulations Charles. He legitimately drove a tractor to the podium over 4 other faster cars! The RB (Perez) the McLaren (Piastri) and both Mercedes (Hamilton and Russell)

It's was sort of expected seing it's a Bahrain car again

Never was. The dude lost a 50nsecond advantage and hasn't won since.

.

Yeah congrats to Lando for his second win, A win is a win

Leclerc said yesterday getting a podium would be a miracle. MIRACLES DO HAPPEN. That was an incredible performance by him.

Yes , it was expected (as I said )
Lando : MAX was losing pace and I won pace during the race , I knew I would win this race in lap 5.

McLaren will be extremely fast at Monza and for the rest of this season..

Red Bull won't close this big gap in this season...
MAX : I gave everything the car gave to me.

All MAX can do with the RB20 from this moment is damage limitation (!)

Great drive from Lando. McLaren clearly had the fastest car today. Max did a good job in damage control with his second place. Great drive from Charles also!

I'd liked to point out that these F1 topics are becoming less and less fun to read and contribute to because of some remarks. Not sure if trolling or serious, but either way really annoying.

Reversed back to @ spec car when it should be f spec by now, it's a shame for RBR whoever b@llsed the computer simulation between suspension and aero simulation back at season start.

This was the upgraded MCL38? Good Lord. The fact Lando got fast lap on the last lap on old hards (which was faster than the Merc on newish softs) is just … wow.

Yes . McLaren got a big upgrade package at Zandvoort ..

While the RB20 upgrades are a downgrade and have been removed

Grow up and learn to deal with different opinions.

The Red Bull situation looks bad . As you can see..

Marco said rhey have an update coming, but I hope that ship has sailed.

I'd rather watch Lando collect trophies that don't belong to him and win everything by being mediocre than have to watch whatever the hell that was for the last 2 years.
