Technically not 2024 season, but also technically it is…

Glad Hamilton finally got some penalty. That dive bomb on the first corner was nuts putting a car out Norris and sending Alonso to the back.

Magnussen then put on a good show and made Hamilton work for the place (or so he thought at the time) even though he did cut some corners

29C (84F) is baking… LOL

No investigation for Hamilton piling into three cars in T1 was a joke but KMag made sure to ruin his day (and his own).

I think KMag understands that his driving was over the line a bit and he didn’t want to do it.

Sounds like Nico blew the chicane once and Kevin lost the DRS to defend from Hamilton and Nico neither gave the DRS back nor got a penalty for it.

The stewarding was odd for the Sprint. Even Brundle commented on it.

I’m definitely not a Team LH guy, but I thought the first 40 seconds of this video (relating to the KMag video above) was pretty good.

Nice of LH to take it in stride. Somehow he was less accommodating when it was Max pushing him off the road and rubbing sidepods with him. :sweat_smile:

Maybe battling for a single point rather than the title itself means you can get your elbows out and race rougher and have more fun doing it since less is at stake.

NAPCAR race in Miami. Thankfully changed by a safety car picking up the wrong driver (not Max).

Well done Lando.

Pleased to see Lando take the win by a substantial margin. The daughter was back for more stuff for her new apartment so imma have to watch the middle this evening or tomorrow.

So glad to see strategy paying off. I feel bad for Piastri who had a brilliant start and first half of the race. He is right there in the DC points!

Yes!!! Finally Lando did it. Actually a pretty good race all around. Charles (i like him) a little bit weak in my book though.

Awesome to see Lando get his first win. He still had to earn it on merit having to run away from Max so it was well deserved.

Thoughts on Sargent and Magnussen incident? I think Sargent screwed himself personally.

Magnussen is also on thin ice imo

I think it was a racing incident. Magnussen stuck his car in a risky spot without fully getting alongside Logan. Logan should’ve been more aware because he was just side by side with Magnussen so he should know he’s around him somewhere.

If Logan gives another foot of room, no one crashes and he probably comes out ahead anyway.

Magnussen was on the stewards shit list all weekend so I’m sure they were a little harsher on him after his fifth incident.

5 incidents? He was out for blood.

Picked up three penalties in the sprint for leaving the track and gaining an advantage, then received a avoidable contact penalty in the grand prix, then failed to serve that penalty correctly in the pits for some reason so got another penalty.

He now is 2 points away from receiving a race ban.

He really was out for blood, totally on tilt all weekend. Which is a shame because I took him on my fantasy team after he did so well there last year.

Just glad that the Haas is a legit car this year. Mostly Hulk showing what it can do. He was hounding the Mercs and even the Ferraris in that first stint. Looks like the car still has a little more tire deg than others but it’s waaaaay better this year.
