Gutted for Lando.

Looks like Toto has played a blinder, signing and sticking with Kimi and putting the effort into the new car.

Like you said @giles - last year may be the only chance Lando has/had to win the World Championship. That may prove to be true.

My question is, how long does Max wait for the car to come good, and if he doesn't wait, what team could he go to to be competitive?

Tip of the cap to Bearman and joyful to watch Lewis in the mix and happy.

Max’s out is if Red Bull can’t provide a competitive car…His negotiations with Mercedes last year might have been a telling sign of what’s to come. Although who he would bump would be up in the air.

Just a thought and could be off base.

I think Toto now would have a much different decision to make with what he now knows to be true for 2026 - a) the car is fast and b) the driver pairing and the team dynamics are positive.

All teams want to win the manufacturers' title, which requires two drivers. I don't think Max and George would be a good mix, and I think Max could destroy Kimi's mental growth.

So happy for Kimi! Great battle between Ferraris. The hybrid setups are still dumb. 7 DNFs!?

Giles

Two DNSs

Yup and it seems like the fia is still wanting to stay tight-lipped about the issues with the cars

there's probably no catching mercs and Ferrari at this point.. unless engine manufacturers can sort out the PU issues quick..

The FIA fuckers will most likely change the rules to sort that out.....

@Giles pretty sure the whole sport in the past few years have revolved around that whenever there's major advantage to 1 or 2
