RIP McLaren this and next year.

Piastri must be loving life with his choice

Who has more regret, Piastri who jumped shipped to the wrong team or Norris who is locked up to the end of 2025.

Probably Piastri. At least Norris secured a massive pay day. That makes things a tad more endurable im sure

And everyone else who’s an rbr fan is a minion who has a high chance of being at least an Elon fan.

Hey I’m just a Honda fan just cheering for what ever car has that engine in the back of it. Was with them during BAR days, Earth Dreams days, McLaren GP2 days and now RBR. Not sure what I’m going to do when 2026 comes.

Leclerc

What better seat could he have right now other than maybe Aston Martin?

The Tennessee school shooter drove a Honda. Just saying.

Unpopular opinion but I think he could help out Alpine a lot if Ocon or Gasly wasn't in a seat there.

Look at Ricciardo, and Bottas. Leave the top and just be a midfield player for the rest of your life.*

*for Aston Martins crazy improvements this yr, but typically

I'm sure he could help Alpine but I don't think Alpine will be placing above Ferrari anytime soon - and he's Monegasque; he doesn't need the money!

Also, it seems the FIA stopped enforcing the porpoising rule.... making Merc and McLaren's performance even more hilarious. https://www.racefans.net/2023/03/28/...rs-porpoising/

Danny Ric: most popular reserve ever

[JordanEG6]

What happened to Checo? Seemed night and day with the other Red Bull.

I'm impressed with Albon and Hulks performances. Merc as well, didn't expect them to do so well.

IIRC he isn't even the 3rd reserve. But I AM a big fan of DR as an RBR mascot basically.

Checo (and Max) were struggling throughout practice. It seemed like he may not have had engine braking going into the corner but either way, he didn't need to push so hard on his first lap given the troubles he'd been having through practice.

And Daniel Ric is called a "3rd reserve driver" but really he just does PR and Sim Testing. Liam Lawson, Zane Maloney, and Dennis Hauger are the reserve drivers for RB/AT AFAIK.

Albon and Hulk were great. Incredible to have 7 teams fighting it out in Q1!

Albon P8 dafuq

[Team_Mclaren]

Don't kid yourself, if cheeco or max goes down, Danny Ric would get the drive based on experience alone. All the other rookies are reserve by name only.

[nismodrifter]

Ah boy. Well this has got interesting.

Didn’t know we had Melbourne Monster Jam

What a fuckin race...worth staying up for.

[flipstah]

Alonso is pissed

Alpine got fucked

Entertaining, anyway.

I dunno about all of the Red Flags but I guess the FIA is going to be extra cautious this year... let's just hope they're consistently so if that's the way it's going to be.

Pretty happy with AM in 3/4. Shame for Ferrari and I definitely feel for Carlos... the 5s penalty was probably deserved but it had way more impact than it should have given the timing and circumstances.

Russell got thrown under the bus by Merc even before the Red Flag call with the early pit stop - I can definitely see him exploding at some point this season given he appears to have better pace than Lewis but is still treated like the second driver.

It was his choice to stay out or pit. It was said in the radio message where Lewis was pissed he had to stay out but then it was red flagged. Who knew there would be 3 red flags...
