Just because you’ve taken the same racing line before I didn’t mean to say that you can always do that, especially when there’s a car at the side of you

[@simonmiller5118]

Oscar was simply unflappable. It reminded me of Ricciardo's win in Monaco. Well done Oscar.

[@agustinenzoa4447]

Way better, consistent and mature than the imp Lando. He should be ML #1 Driver.

[@sp3949]

No one is superior drivers man! U idiots act as if both Ferrari and McLaren are on similar standards. And as if Piastri pulled this win out of his ass. Ferrari is clearly a step below McLaren car and Ferrari playing catch up here. Best win is Monza win where the superior team and car lost due to strategy.

[@donovanjanus7252]

His rear wing seemed pretty flabbable though ;)

[@RichardMcLaren]

Still legal, although I imagine the FIA might alter the regs for next season to make sure they don't flex as much under the loads on track, rather just the static load test.

[@slopat2503]

I guess Max did not deserve that penalty in Austria after all. No friggin consistency not even from the media. Kudos to Oscar, brilliant race.

[@MrFtoudalk]

If KMag had been involved in that crash, no matter in which car, there wouldn't have been any doubt who to blame

[@Roeland666]

No news on the flexi-rear wing?

[@cococalm]

Oscar won on Race Craft, as he would have in Hungary. The Checco / Sainz incident was just that, a racing incident. Sad though because Checco drove a great race, but 4th was probably the best he could have hoped for. The RB is just not the car to challenge at the front. Lando's and Lewis' recovery drives were brilliant. Lando's more so as he finished ahead of Max. This has been a Baku that has sort of redeemed street races for me - generally I despise them with this generation of cars. I would have loved to see Prost, Mansell, Senna race here, would have been sublime.

[@JudyGardner-s6d]

Red bull motto blame someone else They never do anything wrong Horner is nuts if he thinks checo could have won the race. BS

[@kondjanegongo796]

@@JudyGardner-s6d he meant IF Lando hadn't held up perez... And gt a run on leclerc the same lap Oscar did and wud have been closer to leclerc. Doubt he'd have pulled of a move like Oscar tho... As Oscar said, clean air is king

[@tommcguire5880]

These presenters do a very professional presentation. Thank you. So many F1 Podcasts are not nearly as well presented.

[@kathrynwright2075]

Thanks Nick and Ian - I really enjoy your analysis and comments.

[@maicolx7776]

Perez at fault 😅 why was he getting closer? Because he was mad to let both pass him 😂 + He did the same in Monaco 😅

[@sp3949]

Perez, Verstappen and RB team are one of the most bitter team in F1. They go batshit crazy is if someone overtake them.

[@wristcandy5451]

To win you first have to finish, both drivers failed to avoid a collision

[@kondjanegongo796]

does anyone realise Leclerc is 20 points behind lando, and Oscar is 30 points behind lando... who is 60 points behind Max...with about 220 points still up for grabs. If lando has a crappy race or a DNF oscar and Leclerc are right in the fight. Max could be saved by the others closing and taking points off each other until he gets a decent car again IF he does

[@patrickpierre6114]

I said.... if Max didn't win Home Race.

[@kondjanegongo796]

@@patrickpierre6114 don't quite understand what you are saying

[@chaichokpang5754]

Perez thinks he is verstappen

[@chrishalious8194]

SORRY IT WAS NOT A CHAOTIC RACE if only at the END when stupid Carlos moved around Perez and took himself and Perez into the wall

[@thechefrandy5555]

I am a Carlos I think he’s 100% at fault. It’s because you took a line before you can just drift in into somebody else. How dare Perez go straight on straight away?

[@jeremythornton2464]

Finally the cars can race and they are going to have a reset then in 26 .

[@WH0oo...]

Any racer that dwells on the "what ifs" for very long will self-destruct. FOMA is so crippling no matter the activity. As an arm-chair observer, your hyperboles "chaotic finish" hardly rises close to AUS '23, and underscoring NORL to "rue" another missed opportunity is just destabilizing to his fragile mental health.

[@cococalm]

Yeah, this was not a "chaotic" finish by any stretch, unfortunate for some perhaps, but certainly not chaotic. Lando finishing ahead of MV with fastest lap is still 3 more than MV. It is a confidence boost for hims either way. At the end of the day, there are still more than 200 points up for grabs, Norris is only 59 points behind MV. It is still all to play for.

[@kondjanegongo796]

@@cococalm u do realise piastri is 30 behind norris and leclerc is 20... Piastri has made a very strong case to fyt fr his own title... One bad race fr norris cud change everything. Piastri has outscored everyone since hungry by a big chunk so I doubt he will move over or help norris.. Nd webber is his manager... Vettel didn't help him in 2010 and snatched the title at the last race after following alonso an webber the entire season

[@cococalm]

@@kondjanegongo796 yes, and ? I am trying to understand where your suggestion is leading .... and its context to the comment I made.

[@kondjanegongo796]

@@cococalm yeah game on fr Lando but at this rate he shud be more worried about Oscar who is faster, cooler and calmer.. And leclerc who is on form and gt Carlos full assistance than just focused on max.. And Lando shud be doing much more damage to max cause IF max get the car right it's over

[@cococalm]

@@kondjanegongo796 - In real terms, if MV gets one more victory, I think it is tickets for this year. Then next year, LN will have OP to contend with which, as things are going now, strongly favours OP. RB won't have a dominant car next year, I think their time has come and gone. Ferrari is a surprise package ... it either works or it does not .... consistency is their Archilles heel .... always has been. And then the emergence of Aston when the Newey upgrades will start to make their effects shown. ( Alonso will deffo get his 33rd next year . Seems unlikely this year ). I am eagerly awaiting the upgrades next year, especially the ones coming in May and just after the summer break ... a window into '26 for sure.

[@rtyler1869]

Except for the epic drive Sergio did at Baku, Red Bull have thrown this title away. They should have replaced him before the break and never given him a contract extension.

[@DaveOz-mx5oh]

Red Bull seems so... symmetric now

[@kondjanegongo796]

@@rtyler1869 with who and if max is also struggling wat difference wud it have made... The car clearly sucks.. I think that's y they didn't fire checo. Yuki is the only one that deserved that seat and look how he is doing currently, wud have just ruined his chances
