Alex Dunne, you beauty..
One to watch for the future.

More pressure on Norris... :D :D
If nothing else he is a good looking plan B in the future for Mclaren if relationship with Norris sours.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

I'm sure Mclaren hasn't shown everything yet and in my opinion it will be good for competition if more teams take points from Max.

Good pressure!
Hoping that O'Ward will step up and put his best case before the gaffer
Can only be good for the Papaya

If..Max goes to Mercedes. The chances of Red Bull going for Lando or Oscar would be high. We know they have tried Lando before, and Oscar is a declared ( i think?) Red Bull fan growing up, due to Webber.

Or its just a straight swap with George.

Alex Dunne raced with Verstappen on Iracing, I think it was a Sebring race and his pace was very quick (until Max unintentionally took him out).

To be within 0.070 off of Piastri just shows how good that Mclaren is.
The car isn't near the edge yet, being able to pop in top time consistently when the car is at the edge of its capabilities is what counts. it's the same reason Norris is typically fine until Q3

Really happy to see Alex performing so well in F1. I was watching him since F2 arrival and had a good impression on him. Also had the chance to chat couple of minutes in Imola, so yes, a great kid with (I hope) great future in front of him.

6 tenths is pretty massive on this track. Would be surprised if they just turned it up to full beans. Fueled for multiple hot laps too
Let's see what long runs look like

3 tenths is also pretty massive. Did the temperature went up between FP1 and FP2? We seem to be doing much better now.
