Without a DNF or non-points finish for Oscar that definitely takes a lot out of the title race. Takes some of the pressure off for him

That’s right up there with Haji’s miss for most painful moment of the weekend

Genuinely felt for Lando. I'd want them to sort it on track

This is set up beautifully for Lando now.
Probably be the next to bottle it into the wall...

Big test for him
Hes got an open goal here Lando, needs to show he has the mentality to convert this open goal into pole and win

He is pathetic. One of if not THE most spineless overrated driver Formula 1 has ever seen

This has been an absolute nightmare from Piastri this weekend.
It's all on Lando now to take advantage, let's see if he can make it to the end of the race without a bottle of his own.

The only other thing guaranteed to happen in a race is the obligatory McLaren pit stop botch.

It'll be interesting to see if this was just "one of those weekends" for Oscar or if it's the first signs of pressure. If it's the latter and Lando carries on...well...being Lando then we could see a Brawn style title win that relies heavily on a lot of early wins and goes down to the wire. Red Bull look like they've come on a long way but if Max gets anywhere near the title it'll be ludicrous considering where we were.
Realistically though Oscar still wins fairly comfortably.

Interesting how Lando gets into traffic with some slow VCARBs and can't even capitalise his biggest chance of getting the title. What a bottler

Probably get chastised for this, but I really hope Max comes back and wins it. He is much more of a worthy champion than either Lando or Oscar, and it will vault him into the pantheon of GOAT. I mean hes in the conversation already for me

I'm not sure I'd be mentally ready for that kind of capitulation.... That'd be like City running away with the championship for most of the season and ending up bottling it
Joking aside though, if Red Bull turn up and are fully competitive in Singapore, I actually think it might be done.

I dislike a lot about the nepobaby knob but I'm kinda with you. Norris doesn't deserve a title - chucked away too many chances, not always all on him tbf - and the extent to which Max can outperform whoever is in the other car and get stuff done when it matters is nuts. Like Hamilton in the seasons when Ferrari and Vettel had the better car and binned it.
