2026 McLaren Mastercard F1 Team

A roller coaster

IT'S ON, boys and girls. Lando is truly driving WDC level
I think the time has come to get PIA up and use him for NOR title run. McLaren will not even be able to compete for WCC if PIA keeps dropping off like this

Not gonna lie, I thought this would have been another Lando Norris special, i.e, lose a race from P1 because of a bad start.

But the pace has been phenomenal on the second half. Again.
Doesn't redeem the start in my opinion, he has to fix that at some point because it almost cost him two wins between Budapest and here.

He won the race, so of course he redeemed the start. I wouldn't mind him losing the lead at the start every race if he's race winner at the end.

I think he had the pace, especially in the second half, to have a very easy win. Made it hard for himself and who knows, on another scenario, he might not even win this type of race. And that's how you lose 7 points which may very well be crucial at the end of the season. He needs to not lose out on the starts if he wants a realistic chance of a comeback this year.

But other than that, I have nothing to say to this race. Completely outclassed his teammate and he was clinical when he needed to be. Pace in general over the last two races has been phenomenal.

Norris definitely redeemed himself for the start by making a championship level pass on both Antonelli from the outside and then Hamilton.

We seem to deploy the PU different here due to the gearing ratio. On high fuel and the softer tyres we don’t we seem to be that competitive. But the hards and low fuel was just epic. Close to the fastest lap of LEC that was set on softs. Car just goes into the sweet spot

Lando operating at a very high level this season, quite possibly the driver of the season so far imo. Norris a year ago likely doubts himself, love the confidence he has in himself this season
