The Return of the King
"False start"
"No, it was a great start"
Comedy gold
Are all of them driving like idiots now?
Perez-Stroll and Lawson-Perez are under investigation, Colapinto did a stupid move on Piastri..
Write stupid rules, get stupid races. This is all on FIA and the stewards. You reap what you sow.
Smooooooth operator
Another 10 seconds penalty for Max
VER needs to be DSQ-ed. Guy is fucking dangerous with his red mist.
Fucking finally, 2x 10s penalty!
Everybody boxing to get fastest lap and Norris simply tries to go for it with his old hards lol
Verstappen is an idiot who only knows how to drive and start in first.
Edit: both RBs drive like they're alone on the track
Track temperature has dropped by 5 degrees, could impact the grip a lot says Wurz as we see marbels
Leclerc omg
Aston Martin says Alonso's retirement was due to a brake issue related to cooling

Unfortunate. Uneventful end to his 400th race weekend.
Going by the radio transcripts on Multiviewer something got stuck in a brake duct and they overheated instantly
At least Perez made it past the first ~~corner~~ straight this time.
Aaaand he picked up a penalty already. This man..
Perez was wayyy off his grid position.
The interaction between Perez and his race engineer was comical.
Can't say this kind of driving is endearing Max to me.
This first at apex shit has to change or else both Norris and max will just race to the apex without any regards to making the corner
100%, the rules need fixing and fast.
Lando in that McLaren is so weirdly gentle on the tyres. Like his outright pace is not ahead of the others but he seems to have minimal degradation. Either that or else he is taking it too easy at the start of the stint and not maximising the entire stint.
Piastri has been having a rough couple of months but from the season overall it looks like a car characteristic. We've seen several races where both McLarens seem to perform best towards the end of a stint.
I don't get it though. If the car is so well balanced that he is always faster at the end of stints, shouldn't it be faster at the start of the stint as well? Also not only is Lando faster than others at the end of the stint, he is faster than himself as well when compared to his pace early in the stint.
I don't know. Could be a mix of both, the strategists knowing the car works better the lighter it is so the drivers are told to save tires early in stints to maximise the impact when the car is as light as possible?
Man everybody is fighting like crazy this weekend
Norris gaining slowly on Leclerc. He has 15 laps β plenty of opportunities to try and overtake.
Contact between Lawson and Perez. Perez has a small hole on his right sidepod.
Another 10s penalty for Verstappen wow.
I'm all for Red Bull downfall
Wowe, 20s total penalties
That was close for Charles.
Haas holding steady with 7th and 8th. Kmag's keeping up with the Mercs. Impressive stuff so far.
Still no mariachi theme. Sadness.
It has happened! I'm now at peace.
They used it for the line-up song lol
My completely non-expert prediction: Max goes back to winning ways after Sainz overcooks his engine while Norris gets taken out by a Mercedes. Perez ruins his race trying to get past Magnussen and Hulkenberg finishes in 5th.
People are gonna make gifs of him sitting out that 20 seconds penalty
Ferrari benefits again from the VER-NOR sparring.
Ouch. There goes Yuki's chance.
The return of VER-PER, but on the last positions of the field
Did they load the Haas fuel tanks with tequila?
I get 10 seconds for the T8 incident but for T4 10 seconds seems excessive especially considering Norris kept the place after T4 by going off track
I'd like to see the telemetry data, Max could have turned into Norris on T4, which would explain the 10s penalty.
I think it's because this one might have been a deliberate decision to run him off rather than them both outbreaking themselves. (Maybe?)
Remember that the driver steward changes ever race (as well as the other stewards?)
I mean, this should really be a penalty.
