8 actually, that was when Max had the fastest lap partway through the race. Lando got it on the last lap

Yup, squandered chance is the name of the game
Agree, it's like the "Checo will challenge Max for WDC" in 2023 media spin.
The drivers are good, the car is great. The team is not acting like they wanna win the WDC and barely like they wanna win the WCC. They're like surprised to find themselves up in the field
Yeah, McLaren is not acting like a front running team at all. I mean they could've easily hung 1 or both cars out there and responded to Ferrari pitting.
As for team orders ... The balance between a far reaching WDC and keeping both drivers happy enough and just getting the WCC, touch call. I don't envy Stella/Brown for having to make it.
I don't see a world where Max doesn't win the WDC, even with these pace differences
I think Lando has crazy good pace, but yeah, agree. You watch a young lewis go against Alonso, or a second season Max, and there are mistakes but there are a lot more gains than losses with that fast of a car
So I had shoulder surgery a few weeks ago. I spent a lot of one-handed time on the couch. Played some Shapez 2 with a mouse on the couch via the deck, I played some the Witness (goofily with one hand on my xbox controller), some Slay the Spire, and some Stray
Been nice to have the ability to not sit at my computer when it was too uncomfortable
I saw Sleep Token this year and I think it overtook Rammstein as a show.
They didn't say a word, just played 1.5-2 hours of music back to back and then left. Incredible lights, incredible precision, and all business
I'd love to see her get a shot in F2. It's a bummer Formula W is so far distant in terms of power from the "main" Formula feeders
They did say that, and they corrected themselves after or at the end of FP1. Old floor and they were looking for deltas between lewis and kimi
On F1TV they reported it was the new PU fitted but it could be wrong. I was very surprised to hear it, usually the wait till Saturday
Rough for George, having his new engine bonk the wall already. No surprise on a monza engine swap with 8 to go after.
Totally agree. It's a bad idea for the team (could lose his talent) and for Oscar to play this game. If it was 10 points between max and Lando? Sure, play wingman. For this? Nah
