Lando was absolutely on fire in that last stint. Overtake after overtake with amazing pace.

Daniel's race is another shame to add to this season. The race that Daniel Ricciardo has done is outrageous.

And worst of all, there are still three races left to put up with this guy.

Yeah, very impressive by Fernando to be honest. The guy was last, with a car that got smashed into the barriers. And he still obliterated everyone in the end apart from Lando.

Can't be too happy in terms of constructor's points, but you gotta appreciate that performance.

Ricciardo doing an absolutely astonishing job today, no clue how he was able to overtake the world greatest driver, Nicholas latifi in the rocket ship of a Williams.
Jk. Absolutely amazing drive from lando, some of the best 10 laps I’ve ever seen. As for Daniel, I guess that’s just another reason why they where right to sack him, just a shame it didn’t happen last year

Lando is carrying the team this year. What a comeback. To me all looked lost in the middle of the race, but man i was wrong. Strategy was good and Lando fantastic. Damn shame he is deemed to fight only for "best of the rest" title and positions.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

Clearly Lando if he had ever driven another F1 car wouldn’t have been able to manage that.

And Ric has the reputation for late braking…ooft

Can’t they just get Piastri in the car in Mexico already? Maybe we can still get 4th with him in the car.

Days like this just make me wonder how there are people saying that it's McLaren's fault for not making a car that suits to Daniel's style.

I mean come on guys, seriously, how can you defend such performances. Daniel got Latifi levels of spanking this weekend (and it has happened a number of other times). We are not talking about a gap that can be explained by his driving style miss-fit with the car.

The gap is absolutely enormous.

Amazing job for Lando. Really happy with that P6.
Unfortunatelly is an almost impossible mission to finish P4 in Constructor when you have only one driver.
I was sure that Ricci will do almost same as Sainz at McLaren but he was and is a great disappoitment. If wasn't Lattifi 5 seconds penalty he would have been dead last. I wondering if he raced on that horse that he came to on Friday 😄😄

There’s been recent comments about Lando being blissfully ignorant because he’s never driven another F1 car apart from McLaren. But I remembered below article , how he stole the show at Daytona on his sports car debut. This lad is a very talented driver.

Lando is fantastic. I hope we can give him the car he deserves and needs to be world champion. If we can't do this, he must leave us. I hope we will be world champion together but if not I want to see him becoming WC in another team too.

You are not a WC material if you can leave yourself so much than Ric did.
