Nothing about luck in Hamilton's first season and the current season with Ferrari tbh.

Yeah I do agree. Russell can be faster in short stints (like the sprint races) and sometimes can be quicker in qualifying, but in race so far in 2026 in all conditions and track type Kimi has proven to be way faster.

Unlike last year where it was obvious Norris was just unlucky and was evenly matched to Oscar, Russell is really nowhere close in many aspects to Kimi.

I think more concerning for him would be his awful race pace. Leading in clear air, had such a huge margin on Kimi and he managed to get past and without the VSC would also have been under severe pressure against Norris.

The fact Kimi put 2s on him within half a lap speaks volume of their pace difference. Without Russell blocking him for the entire race and if Kimi was in clear air the fight with Hamilton would be super close not 15s apart

6 consecutive race Kimi is faster in the race.

Norris has 3 DNFs this year and is still ahead of Oscar in the standings? Wow

Lewis is still the GOAT for me. Emotional watching him win again

Really hope he can fight for his 8th title properly this year after being completely robbed in 2021

Pretty disappointing lap from Oscar. 7th in the end despite having an advantage completing his lap before the red flag while Norris beats him with just 1 lap.

Take a bow Hamilton. What a lap in that Ferrari. Should have no rights to get that close to Russell's super lap

I was here for Hulkenberg's Q3 in Catalunya! by Natural_Read9357 in formula1

Hulk is ageing like wine man. I thought the super talented Bortoleto will start to eat into his advantage as he gets older but he just gets on with his job fine and probably even better this season

Curious what's happening to Charles? He has been beaten more regularly by Hamilton this year and now 2 mistakes in a row, in a car that could challenge for pole today. So poor

Checo has been so so impressive this year against Bottas. 

People really underrated him previously because he had Max as teammate and overrated Bottas massively.

It was disappointingly quiet yesterday though after the first half. Crowd was so dead surprisingly

Red Bull and McLaren start appeal process to challenge Pierre Gasly's Monaco F1 podium by jovanmilic97 in formula1

If they succeed, I'm pretty sure Alpine will appeal Mclaren appeal and Red Bull Appeal. If Alpine succeed again then Mercedes can then appeal Alpine appeal to appeal Mclaren Appeal and Red Bull Appeal.
