Even if McLaren had double-stacked on lap 7 and cost Norris a bit of time…
…the podium would almost certainly have been either PIA/VER/NOR or PIA/NOR/VER.
Just so unspeakably pissed off at how badly wrong they called it. Literally everyone else took the SC pit stop.

With the DSQ in Vegas and now this shitshow, it’s not McLaren’s drivers keeping Verstappen in this fight; it’s McLaren.

Oscar and Lando better be throwing laptops and tables at the walls during the debrief.
Utterly let down this evening, in an embarrassing way.

I genuinely believe McLaren owes its fans an apology.

Still can’t believe the SC came out on literally the first possible lap for it to work strategically in a race with such unique circumstances.
Don’t tell me that’s not the racing gods at work.

Best plan for a McLaren win is Piastri boxes, and Norris tries to hold Verstappen up.

Norris dropping back to 2s ahead of Verstappen could actually help Piastri, Max is in Lando’s dirty air now.

I think we’re looking at a PIA/VER/NOR podium here…Oscar’s got the pace to make the strategy work, at the moment it doesn’t look like Lando does.

That’s the most trainy DRS train in history….14 cars 😂 what a joke

This has absolutely FUCKED McLaren. The cars were too close to double stack, so they didn’t pit either car.
They’re going to have to hope their race pace can carry them ahead of Verstappen now, with one less pit stop to do….

Thought the lights stayed on for a random time between 2-7 seconds before going out???
That was about half a second!

In motorsport you obviously need to take the good luck with the bad, both car and driver need to perform, etc, etc, all that stuff. however….
In terms of guaranteed points lost where the driver is absolutely blameless;
Verstappen: 0
Piastri: 12
Norris: 36
That’s pretty crazy.

“Big Qatar GP setback” he’s on the front row ffs
I swear this season every error/moment of imperfection from both Norris and Piastri has been over-analysed and sensationalised in a way we’ve never seen before. It’s a joke.

Lando Norris sounded despondent over team radio after a moment of understeer cost him a final Q3 lap.

I 100% don’t mind/care which McLaren driver wins the title; I’m a McLaren fan, not an out-and-out Piastri or Norris fan.
All I really want from tomorrow is Lando outscores Max and puts him out of contention.

Fernando Alonso is, in the absolute best way possible, a freakish anomaly.
He first won a Grand Prix when kids were destroying the family computer with Limewire.
Now he’s 44 years old and you’d STILL count on him for a result if there’s a chance. Madness.

Shame that Oscar’s run of scruffy performances coincided with track layouts/track surfaces which didn’t suit him.
Really exaggerated his title slump.

Can’t decide if it’s a good decision or not…not having Newey focused purely on car design is a risk, but…maybe he has the perfect brain to be a great TP. Time will tell.
