All in all, good weekend for Max, and a step forward. Does anyone know why they didn’t bring their flexi front wing? It wasn’t in the upgrade docs… What else do they have coming for Mexico and Brazil? |

I was hoping Max would pull an Alo (ala Aus on Rus) in the esses to cause Nor to slip up and spin. Either way, I think Max’s ability to defend like no other frustrated Nor knowing he had a much faster car and just doesn’t have the ability, skill, or race craft to pass post haste like Max would have in the same car. |

Controversial. Elbows out by both.

probably safer to cover Lando being Max's direct competitor instead of covering Sainz?

And of course if one car is going off track doesn't mean you are allowed to pass that car off track I wonder what would've happened if Lando backed out of that moment, not passing Max off track but let him go, and McLaren making a complaint with the stewards. Could Max have gotten a penalty at that point for going off track and gaining an advantage or forcing another car off track, or would it have been judged as a track limit violation (4 allowed)? But it's racing at it's hardest. Elbows out as Artemis said For both, so these things will happen and the FIA has to play the referee. In that case it's very important how the rules are exactly set. In this case they they went the apex route. I'm sure we'll see more moments similar to this one in the rest of the racing season so we can expect some close racing and questionable moments to come (and 1 or 2 crashes I fear )

On conclusion we can see Lando is trying more things after losing out on the hairpin at the start, we saw Charlie wanting to make the same manoeuvre as MAX at the exact same time then quickly placing himself back to power out of the bend better in the middle as MAX and LAN drifted outside in their acute angle trajectory.

And having the better pace and tires doesn't automatically means also overtaking, we saw that the many laps before |

In hindsight, Lando probably could have made it easier on himself by trying to overtake Max AFTER the last corner of the track and on the straight with DRS - given how close he was to Max at that point anyway, possibly overdid himself trying to attack Max where he did.

Very not similar. Verstappen held the position that he was in before the corner, Lando was behind Verstappen before the corner and gained a position by going off.

For sure LAN could catch up with his main DRS flap open but not as quickly as in previous races giving MAX that crucial split second more time to position for block which he did with accuracy despite LAN even having a bit more tyre grip.

I am hopeful RBR keeps bringing pace to the car because once again we saw what Max can do with the 3rd fastest car. I would also like to see Nor DNF once or twice...he is truly one of the biggest asses in F1. Norass is what he should be called for his incessant whining. |

Pretty awesome race but very surprised Red Bull (aka Max) couldn't get it done and keep pace with Ferrari. Max was strong all weekend then nothing come race time. Granted he finished 3rd but I could have sworn he would have finished #1 after watching him all weekend! Crazy stuff!
Maybe this weekend? No one knows anymore.

Teams/drivers have the right to appeal every decision of the stewards.
But in the end someone has to be the referee in a match.
