KMag with the blocking masterclass. I think he managed to piss off three different teams. If this was Nascar, there would definitely be a fight afterwards.

Lance Stroll with the window licking masterclass. Fucks it into the barrier. AM is my favorite team, but it's so hard to root for them with the owner's failson in that second seat.

The broadcast could not stop wanking themselves over Bearman. Yeah, he finished 7th in a podium car. Very impressive, Crofty. Very impressive, Pajeet.

At least Checo seems to be back. Yay?
 
No one knows how to put you off a driver quicker than Crofty does. Yeah it's his first go but he underperformed the car and I have no idea how he got driver of the day.
i think you guys are being a bit overly harsh. first race sure and he should have done better during his stint on softs but still, what could you reasonably expect from him?

didn't help that max was max and there was no real competition in the first 5-6 places after the safety car. only real interesting thing was piastri trying to get past hamilton and afterwards, hamilton trying to get past norris. was a very boring race otherwise.

He got driver of the day because the broadcast would not shut up about him. Ollie obviously has a future in F1 (or maybe not, as we've seen with Pourchaire), but if Sky turns him into the next LEWIS HAMILTON IS NOW IN 5TH PLACE, THIS IS AMAZING, I'll start hating.

It is funny how Sky creams themselves over Hambone and George and sometimes Lando, but they ignore Albon all the time.

1. he's in a Williams driving at the back of the grid
2. he's racing as a Thai
3. he dared to have Hamilton drive into him twice

I don't know who called the overcut for Pewis and the zoomer, but whoever it was should be demoted. It obviously didn't work.
 
Looking up for Haas in general after this race. Sauber is retarded, Alpine runs an unreliable tractor, and VCARB never has enough race pace. Bearman doing well gives them options for next year. McLaren must have the shittiest DRS on the grid, painful watching Piastri have little gain with it lap after lap going into the first turn. I think Zhou has a very good chance to sneak a point or two soon as long as Sauber can pit properly.
 
Apparently Max was still on iRacing at 4AM before this. I love how much of a racing autist he is, he'd fit right in here.

God that McLaren looks slow on the straights. And in slow corners. Seems like they built another Silverstone car.

Like Dale Jr. almost missing practice, but not letting it get in the way of his career. I'd actually like to see Max get on his show and just fuckin' talk iRacing.

KMag had one of the greatest nuisance performances of all time today and he'll still end up getting fired for some 19 year old from Essex.
 
Riveting defensive driving from KMag, once he was done holding these drivers off he created a sizable gap within one and a half laps so it shows he still had some pace left.

However it does show a precedent that drivers should no longer get only time penalties but also forced to give back positions. Albon's race was nearly ended when KMag squeezed him into the wall and lost that front wing.
 
I was impressed with Bearman, he hasn't had hardly any time in the car and in his first outing acquitted himself quite well. As others have said, I hope the commentators don't suck his dick like they have done with Hamilton and make it impossible to cheer for the guy.

The Ricciardio Comeback hopes must just about be dead and buried now and I still can't get over how the Jnr Redbull team have designed such a shit car.

I hope McLaren gets an update before too long that gives them more top end.

It is still too early to tell, but this is the second race in a row where Osama Bin Russell has outdone Hamilton, and it may just be as simple as age is taking a greater toll on Hamilton than it has on Alonso(it seems that how well drivers do as they get older, is totally random), but Hamilton's first year at Ferrari could be a disaster and be his only year at Ferrari.

He was lucky he broke his hand last season and had the excuse of being a bit rusty for why he wasn't wrecking Tsunoda in the handfull of races they had.

Someone from that team is losing their seat to Lawson and they know it so all out team mate war.

No way can red bull keep Lawson on the bench for next season. There are so many drivers out of contract and so many teams would love to grab him after last season's performances. They need to gove him a driver or they won't keep him.
