    Happy with that. Norris in a well deserved 2nd. And 2 Brits on the podium.

    Max was Max, Norris was brilliant, Hamilton drove well (and got some luck), Piastri was great, Perez again finished behind slower cars, Stroll needs to go.

    I just want to say how great the growth of content and conversation has been here in just a few weeks. Let’s see what the McCedes can do.

        Me too. I never commented on Reddit as it would get buried anyways. Today I switched and I already commented twice. I would like to see a good conversation here during live events.

            It’s a bummer Piastri didn’t have softs, not that it was anyone’s fault of course. But I bet he would’ve passed Hamilton before the end of the race!

      Really understating it here. Stroll’s driven quite poorly today in general, to be honest, so I can’t say I’m entirely shocked.

    I just don’t understand why McLaren put Norris and Piastri on hard tyres.

    Even split strategies surely after seeing how long George lasted on softs

      We’ll see, the C1 is a new tire this year. It’s possible most teams underestimated it.

          The garbage tire from Silverstone last year is called C0 this year.

            Wait I didn’t know C0 was a thing. (Unless this means they just binned it, and I’m missing the joke.)

              No they’re still technically available though I doubt Pirelli are actually going to bring them out on any circuit this season. We have six compounds this year, C0-C5.

      I get the hards for Piastri, but soft was the obvious call for Lando. Just strange that they would give him such a disadvantage on the restart.

      I’m honestly shocked that Sainz hasn’t done better than he has. I’d backed him for a podium shot, but this has not been a great race for him.
