2026 McLaren Mastercard F1 Team

[Slahinki]

Very good start.

Not by piastri.

Not sure I saw that correctly, but did he just run into the back of Russell on his own?

Next GP is in Madrid and it should be perfect for the characteristics of Mclaren.

I expect Norris to win there with margins like Hungary.

We're on target, but we're supposed to believe that Lando miraculously found 1 second/lap in qualy by willpower.

Considering Piastri was nowhere near that, then yes. Anyway, hopefully Verstappen can get Antonelli somehow, so the points gain is larger.

When Max does it against his teammates it's not the car though, right

When his car isn't the fastest, then credit to him (Max, or Lando).

There was contact twice. First one George squeezed him but second was oscar being too keen

Yes but how do you quantify this? If Lando is 1 second a lap faster than Oscar, what makes it all car but when Max is 1 second ahead of his teammates is all driver?

I'm not sure where this argument is going, but the point is VER has never had the fastest car (or even 2nd best) this year at any point (despite delusions of others), and Lando has had the fastest car in at least 4-5 weekends already (Miami (debateable), Spa, Hungary, Zandvoort, Madrid). What the teammate is doing is irrelevant. I never mentioned PIA or LAW.

Because that car already won 2 GPs, so it's fast, and Piastri has been average all year, its not like they were neck and neck and suddenly Lando is miles faster.

Terrible timing of the VSC

[matt_b]

Of course they time the VSC perfectly for Kimi, they would've called it straight away

[Darth-Piekus]

VSC. Terrible timing.

[Mcl_G10]

Cheating

[Slahinki]

What is this VSC timing, come on.

edit: nevermind.
