Why do the new young generation think you can overtake at turn 1 there like that?

You mean like how one of the old generation just did?

What happened to Ocon?

The heck you doing, Charles?! 😤

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

No risk, eh? Hold my steering wheel

 

[Grayfox]

Ferrari have not screwed up, they need to be investigated for illegal strategies.

Stewards have noted this. No further action. Will re-assess at the next race.

 

[MagpieRacer]

Fantastic battle between the Ferraris, great to watch.

Verstappen, blah blah, history, yawn.

 

[Mae Borowski]

verstappen just sounds bored of winning at this point

 

[Blitz24]

He can take his talents to NASCAR and see if he can do well there!

[Sum1s2pid]

Settled into a snoozer, except for Charles almost Ferraring Carlos.

My minor OCD appreciates the top three two-by-two finishes.

Shame about Piastri. Could've had another McLaren double points finish.

Always good to see the crowd, um... crowd the track for the podium celebration.

 

[PaMu1337]

Piastri penalty, Lawson P11. Not bad for a second race in a horrible car

 

[MSZ]

Not a RB fan, but congrats to RB and Max for their accomplishments.

 

[Mae Borowski]

More importantly than anything, P11 for Lawson in that absolute bucket is fantastic

Simply Historical

 

[SestoScudo]

BORING

 

[AshenGraey]

Great to see history being made so congrats to Max and Red Bull. As boring as it may be to see 1 driver just dominate this sport, they deserve the credit. I'm just glad to see that it wasn't a completely straight forward win for them, they had to somewhat fight for it. I'm hoping that means that by the end of the season, another team will manage to beat them, possibly even more than once.

Simply boring.

At least Mercedes had to work for it.

Another record was broken today. The shortest F1 race in duration without a red flag. Previous record was also in Monza, 2003.

 

[GroupB]

We’re reaching the point where F1 is basically rolling into town with a Harlem Globetrotters type of product every time they race.
The question is how long Liberty and/or the FIA are willing to let it continue while risking potential long-term damage to audience engagement.

Well we did lose 2 laps due to the start delay

Wasn't it technically red flagged after the 2nd formation lap?

 

[TumeK5]

Wasn't it technically red flagged after the 2nd formation lap?

No? I don't think a red flag can be applied outside of the race itself.

 

[MagpieRacer]

No? I don't think a red flag can be applied outside of the race itself.

Ok, I just wasn't sure because they had taken a lap off the count so wasn't sure if it was considered a red flag.

 

[PaMu1337]

Additional formation laps always get taken off the lap count

 

[MagpieRacer]

Additional formation laps always get taken off the lap count

Should they have taken 2 laps off then?

 

[Dennisch]

Great result for Max, Checo and RBR yet again, and Ferrari should drive like this every rawe ceek. If you can't win it, just be entertaining.

 

[PaMu1337]

Should they have taken 2 laps off then?

Pretty sure they did.

They drove 51 laps, and it was supposed to be 53

Has viewership for each race been available this season? Would possibly give an indication that Liberty may or may not do anything unless they’re fully content with the races selling out.
