I put my torch and pitchfork away pretty quickly yesterday. If the drivers and teams aren’t mad how can I be? After digging into it more today it is pretty obvious it was the right call.
Pretty massive blunder by McLaren- it's not as if everyone could easily see that these cars are hitting the ground a lot more often this weekend. Maybe they thought the race would be wet and slow? But the team is doing their best to hand this to max.Confirmed. McLaren gets a double DQ.
Lando: 390
Piastri: 366
Max: 366
Geez, Charles really screwed the pooch there- he should have easily been close enough to bag 3rd after the penalty. Or Piastri screwed the pooch for him.What it did to just this race is fun too. Both Haas cars pointed after initially being 11 and 12, and Kimi snagged a podium after one stopping on lap 2.![]()
