Open Wheel Racing 2021, anyone there to watch?

I think it looks way worse because it hits right as an overtake is impending and right on that screen on Croftycast. Good decision but tell the peasants, they've burned the barn.
 
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.

The rare "I learned something today" on the interwebs. You are an officer and a gentleman! I wish I had that degree of maturity on about... oh... 20k posts?
 
Verstappen bounced in Q1 for the first time since 2021, first time ever without a power failure. Both Racing Bulls are in the top ten, though! Bearman continues doing well.
 
And RBR makes a LOT of changes so that Max finishes on the podium after a pit lane start. Granted, he was gifted heavily by the SC, but still.

Oscar made kind of a clumsy move, even though the spot was open- cost him points to Max.

Another good weekend for Haas.

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.
 
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. 😆

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.
 
McLaren really pissing this thing away. Mercedes helped a bit by having Kimi hand Lando a couple points, but even with that it is now…

Lando 408
Max 396
Oscar 392

Also, Sainz now has two podiums with Williams before Lewis has any with Ferrari.

Had Sainz stayed, he would have had a crappy season. It’s all Ferrari that is screwing this up.
 
Did McLaren get analysis paralysis with their Papaya Rules? Made no sense not to pit one of them on the safety car. Commentators mentioned fairness with the WDC, but they should’ve let Piastri pit as he earned it in qualifying and with his good start. By leaving them both out they put Max back into a very winnable position with the chance neither McLaren takes it home.

It should be
Lando 408
Oscar 399
Max 389
If that was the case it would basically take a DNF for a McLaren not to win.
