McLaren didnt expect the whole field to pit on a lap 7 safety car, maybe I could become an arm chair strategist for them as I saw it. They can pay me a small fee and a company car.

Yep. If only a handful of others had stayed out and held Max up it could have been quite different.

If anything though, previous safety cars seem to show if you’re not sure, split the strategies.

If it had been a lap earlier it wouldn’t have worked with the 25 lap rule. Always seems to be mclaren coming off worse in these situations though.

To be fair, it may well have looked different if there was another safety car, but agree that at least 1 car should have come in.

and Lindblad stepping up from F2, making Antonelli and Bearman look middle-aged.


Hopefully with Horner gone, this will last more than a handful of races.

Am I completely imagining things or did the Abu Dhabi doo qualifying always start before sunset, with Q3 being in total darkness? And Q2 mostly being shots of the massive sun setting.

Max for the win then, as the two McLarens take each other out at some point in the race?

Yep, Oscar an Lando to take each other out, max to take the win.

At least Yuki starts too far back to realistically be able to skittleball them without it being very obvious 😄
