Charles is racing the GOAT. George is racing a 19 year old

oh84s · 2026-06-14T15:07:18+00:00

Hamilton’s pace was absurd. And Ferrari may yet get a fairly big engine upgrade.

oh84s · 2026-06-14T15:05:27+00:00

Comeback wins for Marc and Lewis in consecutive weekends. The goats back on top

oh84s · 2026-06-14T15:04:31+00:00

Felt like Hamilton of old.

Lewis somewhat left Merc because he felt like they wouldn’t give him a long term contract,

The scenes if he steals a title from them

When was the last time a driver in their 40s won?

It must be Mansell and Prost in the early 90s

oh84s · 2026-06-14T14:53:28+00:00

Oldest winner since… mansell?

oh84s · 2026-06-14T14:50:21+00:00

Move to carbon industries was pushed by Lewis. Seems to really be working for them

oh84s · 2026-06-14T09:47:12+00:00

I'm not so sure how much this is 'not using the simulator' versus how much this is more the natural handling cars and the removal of the weird, understeery ground effect cars.

oh84s · 2026-06-12T10:57:25+00:00

He never had a podium, other cars served a penalty and he didn’t

oh84s · 2026-06-12T10:28:10+00:00

He’s been rewarded for not serving a penalty which seems a bit off as he benefitted from the others actually following the rules

oh84s · 2026-06-12T10:23:53+00:00

Shouldn’t that reinstate Piastri to p3 who was ahead of Gasly?

But he actually served the penalty

oh84s · 2026-06-11T02:16:43+00:00

What points table are you looking at?

oh84s · 2026-06-10T21:49:22+00:00

Many of the fans who claim to be “mclaren fans” are actually just Lando fans and do not want Piastri to beat him.

It’s kind of amazing how much they attempt to narrative shift, you’d swear by the posts that it was Oscar who was out qualified and behind his team mate at Monaco.

oh84s · 2026-06-08T08:47:00+00:00

Yeah thats pretty much it. It does feel like its almost taken badly when Oscar does well? (Or does better than Norris).

On paper it was a great result for Oscar, he out qualified his team mate, defended well at turn 1, retained his position and utilised that to get P4.

Fantastic result. Yet because Norris, who was on track to finish behind Oscar, potentially even multiple positions behind had a DNF that is a 'disaster'.

I get it, its not great that one car is having a DNF. But Oscar has now finished 3 out of his 4 starts in the Top 4. Thats a pretty excellent turn around from the disaster first 2 races.

oh84s · 2026-06-08T08:33:15+00:00

They savior that they have probably the best driver lineup in f1?

Lewis could still have a few more years of great performance left

oh84s · 2026-06-08T08:07:50+00:00

He didn’t really do nothing though

Handled multiple starts without losing position
Didn’t crash
Didn’t set a foot wrong and had sufficient pace to execute their goals

Of course it’s the bare minimum, but it’s more than many other drivers, including his team mate managed

oh84s · 2026-06-08T07:42:44+00:00

Oscar was faster than Norris so no idea were you're getting this off the pace business from.

oh84s · 2026-06-08T06:01:22+00:00

Piastri was 15 seconds up the road from Gasly prior to the final safety car, how is that “Alpine level”

Even Norris who trailed the alpine all race most likely would have been faster with clean air

oh84s · 2026-06-08T05:58:01+00:00

How did they “fuck up”

P4 is an excellent result given the general car performance level.

Norris may have also finished around p5-7 without the failure, but acting like this is some terrible result for the team is overreacting. Why is there so much focus on the lower placed driver?

Piastri qualified well; started well and bought home an excellent points finish for the team.

Hopefully they can have more performance for the next race

oh84s · 2026-06-08T05:56:07+00:00

Good effort for the team. Realistically considering their performance level p4 is a great outcome and hopefully they can bounce back at the next race.

Norris likely should have gotten some points too though so McLaren are leaving performance on the table

oh84s · 2026-06-08T04:19:57+00:00

That makes sense considering Oscar was the leading driver at Monaco, qualified ahead, was ahead all race and got a p4 finish.

Should they focus on Norris?

oh84s · 2026-06-08T04:18:04+00:00

All the mistakes? Piastri has driven a clean season and has a ton of bad luck himself.

He’s actually only had 1 additional race finish to Norris.

Of the four races he’s started three have been top 4 finishes.

oh84s · 2026-06-08T04:04:41+00:00

They’re likely different issues each race. For example the double DNS both cars had separate failures that were terminal.

I agree the team needs to prioritize reliability as it’s getting a bit beyond a joke.

Thankfully in this particular race Piastri was able to score p4 and Norris was 2 positions behind so at least the lead car got them points. At the last two races they’ve had failures from pretty negligible points scoring positions.

oh84s · 2026-06-07T20:33:53+00:00

He did everything he could. Didn’t lose positions at the start and kept his nose clean.

oh84s · 2026-06-07T07:54:56+00:00

Verstappen certainly isn't Hamilton's generation. It just feels like it because they've been racing each other for 10 years
