Man, Lando messed up my bet.
After the race edit: good comeback tho! That first corner swap should’ve been let go. That was just racing. Lunged force-off and a stolen recovery. Both moves were unclean and should’ve cancelled each other out. Without the penalty the second half would’ve been a lot more interesting too. Glad to see Charl back on the podium.

@Giles He’s just handing his championship opportunity to Oscar.
Some of this will be with the benefit of hindsight, but Oscar was alwa=ys going to be Lando's primary threat........
-
@Giles I’d rather Lando hand it to Oscar than Lando + the team’s strategy do so as last year.
-
-
@Danimal506 yeah it feels like last year was Lando’s chance and they screwed him out of it. But he made mistakes too. Just frustrating for him.

Oscar is ready
More than ready. And I think he has the minerals to take on Max in a way that I don't think Lando does.
-
My 2030 prediction: The next few years will be a historic time where we saw teammates constantly battle for Championships. The Lando/Oscar battle will be a story for the textbooks about team strategy vs letting drivers drive.
-
@Go-For-Chill I just hope the racing improves instead of quali being the best part of the weekend so far.
-
@Rococo 2025 for me is already a 50% write off. Hamilton won’t do anything in the SF-25. Stroll’s existence means one less “top team” driver to watch. Redbull without Newey looks like an anthill that’s just been kicked over…
I can’t wait for the 2026 active aero and car size changes. I really hope it’s a total shakeup.
-
2026 is when Newey’s influence on Aston Martin will be really visible.
-
And if he is still a driver, 2026 will be yet another year when Lances influence amounts to more familial embarrassment......
-
@Giles “I’m going to put my son in a Newey. That’s the ticket! He’ll finally be good enough!”

-
@Tago-Mago maybe, like if they have to red flag a session before F1 drivers put up hot laps.
-
Why can’t he just let his kid fail at tennis or something less annoying and expensive than wasting an F1 seat?
