[@HammerHeart3229]

I think Martin Brundle said on commentary he was surprised Lando didn't go with the Mediums and so was I! Hamilton on used Softs and Verstappen on Hards, surely fresh Mediums would be a no-brainer but apparently not. McLaren should have made the tyre call for Lando instead of giving him the choice!

[@bl4xxun]

@@LawVS I said it before, I say it again. They're not making their catering team change tires during a pit stop, so why are they making their drivers do the job of their strategists? William Joseph sold Lando on the Softs like they would give him the win, while he was sitting on the pit wall with all the race strategists and all the data available to him. How is a driver supposed to make an informed decision if he's lacking the information?

[@Lanselot2069]

this race really showed mclaren and lando aren't ready to win titles yet. they had the fastest car, and bottled a 1-2, on multiple occasions, both on the team and the driver's side. meanwhile merc/lewis and RBR/max aced the strategy in worse cars at every call. also justice for oscar good lord.

I heard McLaren described as having the best car but not the best team yet. Feels pretty accurate...

[@stevenmoran4060]

McLaren need to study Red Bull and strategy. But Zac Brown knows everything better than they do doesn’t he? Tyre choice especially in wet/dry races has to be the drivers call. But, McLaren gave options and gave their opinion. Red Bull just asked Max if hard was ok for him for the last stint. All McLaren wanted to do was copy Hamilton, himself totally useless at picking the right tyres at the right time. Funny how Wolff was giving interviews to everyone for the first time years. Norris isn’t as good as you claiming and I’ve said that for ages. Oscar is the better driver but is being held back because Brown favours Norris. Why else not double stack? Oscar will go looking elsewhere soon if they aren’t careful. He knows what he needs and will do what it takes to get there. Red Bull will drop Perez and keep to the contract by either putting him in the junior team but more like using Liam Lawson as he is having a private test this week at Silverstone in the current Red Bull car. No reason for that unless he is getting ready for a full time drive. Vasser has lost the plot signing Hamilton and I bet he was overruled by the chairman because there isn’t any sensible reason th sack their best driver.

Let them enjoy the usual shitstorm next year . Ferrari needs a better car no other driver to be buried there.

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

Sainz is only 5 points down on Leclerc despite having 1 whole race less. He is definitely the more consistent driver. Less prone to errors or fall under pressure like Leclerc is.

[@dovif5313]

He is a mid driver

[@scroopynooperz9051]

A "mid driver" Sainz has consistently demonstrated much better race craft and is also consistently outscoring their golden boy Leclerc 😂

[@notaspeck6104]

Conversely some people make it out like Sainz is a once in a generation legend. He’s a very good driver, and a very smart driver. It sucks that he’s going to be out of a seat, but that’s f1 tbh. Leclerc is the more talented of the two, he has more potential imo (and seemingly in Ferrari’s opinion). People see that he won a few races these last two years and immediately jump to ‘well he must be the right driver to keep, what on Earth is Ferrari thinking?’ but it’s just not that simple lol.

[@stoshu9584]

Not even particularly a fan of Hamilton, but I am thrilled to see him take that win. You can tell the last couple years have been tough on him, and it puts a rly nice bow on his career at Mercedes to win his final home GP as a member of that team

[@motelghost477]

I don't disagree that Oscar was better than Lando. Lando made too many mistakes, Oscar got royally screwed by his own team.

[@LawVS]

Oscar was more direct and diplomatic. He could've flown off the handle but he kept his cool.

[@Martin-vr6bl]

Lando is now finding out that having the best car doesn’t guarantee wins

[@albert15986]

Oscar is getting screwed every race. He is being conservative and level headed doing exactly what the team is asking him to do. He shows time after time that he can be faster than Lando but he can only seat and watch for now waiting for the right opportunity.

[@busterb6908]

They didn't screw Oscar, they were too close to double stack and at the time it wasn't so clear just how much faster the inters were. In hindsight yes they should have double stacked but a hard call at the time. The made a big mistake with lando not putting him on the mediums when they had the sister car on them and they were working, they should have been much clearer with lando that mediums are the best choice not just mentioning others are on them.

[@walover165]

​@@busterb6908No, it was the easiest commensense call to make to stack them.

[@dubsessed9790]

Excited to see him build Audi. He was a great get for them at this early stage

[@macrossMX]

@@dubsessed9790 But considering that it would be Sauber for 2025, we must prepare for the growing pain that Nico must go through. Speaking of Sauber, their performance is such a snore, it is not even mentioned in the video. And with Valtteri and Zhou's contract ending by the end of the year, them constantly failing to finish near the points, let alone in the points is not doing justice to their future prospects in the sport.

[@Pyramid2774]

Nico is probably like my second or third favourite driver on the grid and to imagine him in a red bull would be an absolute dream. Perhaps he signed that Sauber contract a bit too soon.

[@kingofnotts9048]

Piastri is being held back from his full potential cause he is a beast

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

He is slowly convincing McLaren why he is the more consistent driver due Norris falling to pressure of being prone to mistakes. Austria sprint, now Silverstone. Piastri is literally parking his car up in Norris butt to show he is there with him constantly and even faster like Silverstone. Piastri keeps improving while Norris seems to breakdown mentally.

[@Surfsaus]

Yep oscar had to beat 19 other drivers and his own team. McLaren really don't want him winning races do they? Criminal what they did to him ending his race in one foul swoop. Good to see Lewis win after what McLaren did to Oscar. Piastri will go to either Ferrari, Merc or Redbull when out of contract imo which will only benefit his career. McLaren arent winning anything.

[@24alexash]

Checo deserved to be Redbulls tyre tester this race after his Q1 performance. He was never making his way back to the points so might as well test the tyres out for max. Leclerc however… nah that was Ferrari doing him dirty 😂

[@glarthir2213]

I think leclerc is faster when things are going well, but sainz just seems more consistent. It wasnt just bad luck this race; it may have been unnoticed in the period before charles pitted for inters because the McLarens were going on a charge, but he dropped from 5s behind sainz to 15. In the same time, sainz closed in on verstappen. You have to wonder why it is always charles that gets the raw end of ferrari strategy, does Sainz just recognise the bad ones and says "no"?

[@chipsawdust5816]

Not sure if that's the case but Sainz is a thinking driver to be sure. Haven't really seen that in Charles. I like them both. Carlos in Singapore last year showed some real strategic brilliance.

[@wonkybomb1865]

Getting sad seeing Piastri being the sacrificial lamb after he puts in such amazing drives. His answer to the question during the post show was epic just YES. 👍

[@bradharrison7572]

Piastri is a cool and humble driver. He has (now) on at least 3 separate occasions, had to acquiesce to Norris. The fact that Mclaren are prioritising Norris over Piastri may get them to second in the Constructors but neither driver will be World Champion. Piastri at 23, is close to being the best driver on the grid. He is improving every race with no luck.

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

This should've been Oscars first win, but honestly Lewis winning it was great too. Even though im not a fan he really deserved this one. It was great to see how much it ment to him.

[@wmv8996]

"We will be watching your career with great interest."

[@JosephJMathew]

Was waiting for this video since the end of the grand prix

[@michaelcobbin]

Lewis and Max response to Lando in the cool room tells us that Lando lacks the strategy component to win races at times. Meanwhile, Oscar was very clear in his strategy that he wanted the Mediums. Oscar has more potential than Lando. McLaren will need to stop the biases where Lando always getting the upgrades first. The other three top teams can see that Piastri is a future WDC driver and will be interested in signing Piastri. Piastri manager, Mark Webber, knows a thing or two about a team bias towards its drivers.

[@LawVS]

Yes. Lando KINDA had the right idea, but he was allowed to be convinced to go against it. Oscar stuck to the plan.

[@macrossMX]

@@LawVS I guess the perk of being the leader of the team gives you more power over such decisions. But it does show that Lando is still quite a way to go when it comes to making these critical decisions while racing for wins.

[@michaelcobbin]

@@macrossMX I also think that Oscar, like and Lewis and Max, is constantly reading the situation and to determine the possible outcomes. It’s the difference between a good driver and multiple WDC champion.

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

Don't forget mentally. Norris already threw 2/3 wins away due to mistakes or pressure and when he loses he takes a huge hit mentally. Piastri is different. He is mentally already much stronger than Norris. Norris is really weak mentally. Despite his pace I don't see him ever become a wdc unless he has a super fast car and has no pressure from competition.

[@Andash75]

Lando’s problem is clearly a lack of ‘ Mental Fortitude’ 🤯💥👀💯👍🏼🤫

[@DanielGuarino-kr4co]

also McLaren ruined Piastri's qualifying by sending him out too late and in a situation where he is rushing to do a lap among two other cars which was never going to work out. If he got a proper lap in, I could've seen him qualifying at least above Max and maybe ahead of Lando.

[@DisamerdScroll]

I would put Carlos closer to the winners, the Ferrari is clear the 4th fastest. He had a lonely but solid race, was even catching Max in the wet And while Charles was unlucky the whole car issues and miss communication with the team/his engineer The team has changed so much personnel but the issues persist mainly on his side of the garage...

[@Games_and_Music]

Was kinda funny though, when i saw what happened to Piastri, i immediately thought: "I wonder what Law will say about this, doing his boy a bad one." But yeah, another "what could've been", as opposed to Lando's "what should've been".

[@RockSolitude]

After what they did to Piastri, McLaren deserved to lose this race. I hope Webber impresses a bit more assertiveness into Oscar soon. He can't keep getting walked over by the team and sacrificed for Lando. If they double stacked he legitimately had a shot at winning this race.

[@LawVS]

I'm seriously concerned that the team is too focused on toppling Red Bull with a rulebook rather than a car.

[@TheMissiIe]

@LawVS they're obsessed with winning with their homegrown driver, when that same driver cracks under pressure too often. Not saying Oscar won't, but they never give him a chance

[@errikos9968]

How is it mclaren and loando bias. Mclaren made mistake for both drivers not only oscar. The fact that they didnt double stack is very stupid but you have to think that that has happened to lando in Jeddah which even though wasn't as bad it still ruined his race.

[@TheMissiIe]

@errikos9968 Lando was responsible for everything bad that happened to win this race. He chose softs when the team strategy was NOT softs, and he missed the box markers forcing a 4.5sec pitstop. I say Lando bias because they've never pitted Oscar first when he's behind Lando, the always leave him out too late, they always give Lando upgrades multiple race weeks before Oscar, the never let Oscar pass when he's clearly faster. And more importantly, everyone on social media agrees that McLaren favour Lando over Oscar all the time, it's the biggest reason why McLaren gets some hate

[@errikos9968]

@@TheMissiIe I don’t think you have heard the team radio because when the time came lando gave the choice to McLaren. Also Lando got upgrades 1 GP before Oscar not multiple which is completely understand or since Oscar is in his second year and Lando is ahead of Oscar in he standings. Usually the driver ahead gets the preferential strategy which also happened in Jeddah this year which helped Oscar and destroyed lando’s race. Also when has Oscar been clearly faster and McLaren hasn’t let him pass?

[@OptimizationPrime-kp1zu]

As a McLaren fan i was devastated at the fumble of the 1-2

[@spuddy98]

I feel if Lando hadn't overshot his pit entry, Max would have won. That delay was just enough to put him behind Lewis on exit and after that they were trading similar lap times, so Lando in front would have held Lewis up enough for Max to close up on the pair of them. Also just want to say, as a McLaren fan I was banging my head against the arm of my chair after witnessing the decisions they were making. My jaw dropped in shock when Oscar went for another lap in the wet, I tried to convince myself that everything was fine, McLaren probably know something I don't...until I saw that Lando had more or less caught Oscar on the next lap. Then I was pulling my hair out at McLaren's message to Lando. "Lando we think mediums to defend Max or softs to challenge Lewis". What do you mean?! The mediums have always been the best tire! You just told Oscar that the mediums were the way to go! It frustrates me when I can make better calls than the entire pit wall when I'm just a guy sitting at home in his living room. Anyway rant over, it was still a great race and happy for Lewis.

[@sharptojo6420]

Daily reminder that Checo doesn’t deserve that second seat at Red Bull.

[@XenothGaming]

I think Lewis managed the weekend brilliantly, (his team also) that little bit more downforce may have given away a tenth or two on Saturday but during the rain on Sunday it allowed him to be braver and more committed than George and to also nurse those soft tyres in that final stint!

It was a genius move by Piastri and Webber to get out of his cursed Alpine contract and move to McLaren, but operationally they're weak and in the team dynamics they still clearly favour lando too much over him. I hope Webber sees this, and is aligning Piastri for a future seat at a big 3 team after a few rookies years with McLaren. Piastri is clearly quick, and he has the pace and mindset to be a world champion, but McLaren sadly are not going to be fighting for championships until they sort out their issues, they've got a fast car right now, but you need more than that to make a title fight.

[@walover165]

Mark is still well connected at Red Bull. I've said for a while that I think Mark's plan is to have Oscar take over from Max when Max moves on.

[@RabidJohn]

Lando fans are beginning to know what it felt like to be a Mansell fan in the 80s...

[@OnlineHipHopTV]

At least Mansell wasn't a downie crying after every race because of his own mistake. Norris really needs to get a grip on himself

[@bram5825]

You could have the smartest professor who knows everything about a subject. But if he doesn't know how to translate this material for average people the classes would be worthless. You are a good example of how good the other way around works. You know a lot. But also are able to tell these things in a way everyone can understand. That along with good presentation and a ladder. It just makes for amazing content, recommendable to anyone who loves formula 1. Grazi Lawvs!

12:26 after watching mclaren bungle the strat right in front of my eyes from turn 2 grandstand in canada, i had thought that'd be the only nickel I'd have...

[@MaynzieHD]

Oscar was in DRS range from the start all the way to lap 13 or so and the commentators only noticed on lap 12 and acted as if he wasnt on Landos ass the entire time, the mans a machine

[@Dishanta_Goswami]

Gutted for George and Piastri, happy for Lewis and Hulk. So having real mixed feelings rn

[@motelghost477]

Mercedes have developed their car to the point where you wouldn't want to leave for Farrari. Oops.

[@Davo2times]

he’s been at merc forever. he wants to wear red before he retires. time to move on

[@GERVAISECHUAStudent]

what ladders do you recommend

[@LawVS]

Ones that retract, have grippy feet and a sturdy support mechanism.

[@Gopher31]

Loft ladder sponsorship incoming!!!

[@dubsessed9790]

​@@LawVSgood ladder strat!

[@obscuraapit]

Piastri's races are being compromised one too many times bcz of McLaren team order & bad calls. RBR is most likely behind McLaren & Mercedes. And Lando if unchecked might go into depression bcz given the quality of drivers racing besides him, things aren't always going to go his way.

[@antonni81]

Alonso caught and passed Stroll on the first tyre stint, and then was pitted one lap after Stroll to come out 10 seconds behind him. Alonso had better pace and Aston had the chance to get 6th and 8th had they pitted the driver in front first. Instead they gave the better strategy to the son.

[@cgomega3987]

Mclaren snatching a defeat from the jaws of victory is peak Ferrari 2022 vibes. Its literally the same. Fastest/equal to RB car but the combination of driver and team ... imperfections combine together to not achieve the results that should be achieved.

[@Codi95]

As a Mclaren Fan, i just can't be mad at them, but I think the strategy is their missing piece in becoming a team to fight for the world championship

[@jasonduncan2500]

I guess the F1 McLaren pit team should take notes from the Indy McLaren pit team. They got it right a yesterdays Mid Ohio race.

[@martinavery3979]

I wonder if Mark Webber put something about team orders into Piastri's contract? Either of the Maclarens could have won it if they'd stopped at the same time as Max

[@renegadeseed375]

Nico was the 2nd fastest Ferrari

[@guitarherofreek08]

As soon as I saw the stop strategy I think I could hear him yelling in agony from across the Atlantic like a Clarkson bit, kudos for collecting your thoughts until today for the video.

Bro. No way the Goku abridged voice actor is doing F1 content. This is sweet as.

[@Uzair_Of_Babylon465]

Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things also got to respect the performance of Hulk and even Lance

[@annanymous03]

I needed to sleep a night before I was emotionally ready to deal with living through that papaya coloured disasterclass again. At least with your videos I always know that you share the pain. Great job on the debrief as always 🧡

[@mingin001]

McLaren should have double stcked, if they told Oscar to slow down and back up the Mercedes (just like Valtteri used to do) before he came in Lando would have had a bigger gap. McLarn threw. Also McLaren sent Oscar out to late for Q3 they screwd Oscar.

[@RexytheRexy]

At this rate, McLaren is headed for Ferrari levels of poor judgment and tomfoolery (and they're heading there fast).

[@angelscakes4678]

Mclaren and Ferrari are making mistakes because they don't have a driver calibre like Lewis. Lewis would have in any of the cars most especially the Mclaren.

[@satanswolf]

I am more and more convinced McLaren is betting on the wrong horse.

[@MarkoPantovicBlasco]

After I watch the race Monday morning (I work Sunday), I immediately look if you had already uploaded the review. Thought it was hard to wait until Tuesday night to watch it, I'm glad you did it! The raw quality of your videos is what got me into the channel, and I am glad you are keeping it! Pd: 14:20 It's seems you can't get over whit what happened with Piastri: You were talking about Norris, not him!! But true to be told, I can't blame you.

[@caiorossato2618]

Nico is only behind Hamilton in the winners here, I think the Audi move is great for him but if he hadn’t already signed with them he would be in Mercedes talks by this point in the season imo

[@bananatree2527]

Poor Sauber is so forgettable both F1 and Lawrence just plain forget to put them in the losers bin. Granted, they did horrid with Zhou, starting on the soft which degraded and grained because of course it would on a green track when the car is still on high fuel, so they had to stop for another slick, and then they stopped again for the inters while the track was still dry. So of course those inters also degraded really fast and by then he was already two pit stops down on everybody else who hadn't stopped at all, and he was on horrible tyres. And of course they didn't have any pace either later in the race, had to yield to blue flags all the time, and finished two and a half laps down. Oh dear Checo. Not only did you get out qualified by Sargeant again, you also got lapped by him in the race. Because both Williams cars managed to finish on the lead lap.

[@ngbsolo138]

Oscar keeps getting shafted for various reasons... he has to win soon...

[@TFAmbience]

Great video man!

[@TheEmm4lpha]

I'll add: Shout out to F3 this weekend. Star performance by Arvid Lindblad, becoming the first driver to win both races in a weekend since 2012, Gabriele Mini making the best of what should have been a bad weekend and retaking the championship lead, Callum Voisin taking a feature podium in a backmarker (which would've been a win without an avoidable penalty) and a pretty insane feature race with the winning trio having been last, first, last again and first again.

[@amandabynes2889]

was waiting for this one

[@bobclarke5913]

I don't mind McLaren pulling a Ferrari as much as I mind endlessly being told these are the most exceptional minds in motorsports. Honestly the buffoonery on the pit wall is as embarrassing as it is commonplace.

[@RoyLimisAw3s0me]

Laws... McLaren had fast pit-stop (often battling Red Bull for fastest Pit-stops) but wasn't confident at double stacking the drivers... it's either the Pit Stop Director in McLaren not confident or Zac Brown was not confident in his own TEAM confidence in double stack luls

[@LawVS]

Definitely. They've got the car, now they need to mettle to make bold pit calls. They're too cautious.

[@larx4074]

Oooh, Lando........ bottled the start, blew the pit-stop and muffed the tyre choice............................

[@interloc]

Hey @LawVS can you do a video exploring the apparent "flex" in the very tip of RedBull's nose? Sam Collins pointed it out, and I want it looked into more. The spot with the vent hole, seems flexible and I am not sure if RB is trying to skirt some rule here, especially when they are pointing fingers at Merc. Great vid as always. #81

[@roba165]

I was here before this channel blew up.

[@jordantangco9187]

Piastri was absolutely insane the entire race. You could tell that he was driving on the absolute limit during his overtakes on the Mercedes. He handled the changing conditions like a veteran

[@LawVS]

Absolutely. If he keeps putting these kinds of races in, Lando seriously needs to step up even more than he has done

[@bl4xxun]

Carlos has the same car that Charles has. „They’re not giving him the car“ is no excuse for falling so far behind your teammate. IMO, Carlos is showing us that he is the more complete driver of the two. Charles is fast over one lap. But the season doesn’t consist of 24 monacos, where the race is decided on a Saturday. Your teammate is your one key indicator. And I’m interested to see how things go with Lewis , if he’s gonna expose Charles’ weaknesses or prove me wrong in my assessment. Same goes for Verstappen. I honestly hope they take out checko mid season just to prove that it’s not Max overperforming in a mid pack red bull but checo underperforming in a top two car. Just for science, checo can have his seat back afterwards. Because a car can’t go faster than its maximum potential, no matter who’s driving, but it sure can go slower.

[@andrewmelton2686]

Check the 2022, 2023 and 2024 driver standings

[@bl4xxun]

@@andrewmelton2686 carlos sat one race out because of a medical procedure. And still, he's only 4 points behind charles... He got 2 wins in the last two seasons, compared to charles who got one, and that was not a race, that was a drivers parade. If standings would say anything about the individual performance, lewis and alonso wouldn't be on 8 and 9 in the standings. Charles had something, but he lost it. And Carlos has shown more prowess more consistently ever since last seasons summer break. Charles had that one thing, being good over one lap and therefore having an advantage over the race distance, starting from higher up the grid. Without that, he can't hold up.

[@andrewmelton2686]

@@bl4xxun 😂😂😂😂😂

[@maite16551]

I see your point, however, I genuinely don't think Carlos is the more consistent driver. Did he get better points in the last few races? Sure. But considering the abysmal hell Ferrari put Charles through with strategy in Canada, Austria, Barcelona AND Silverstone in both quali and race them, he is the objectively better driver. He would've finished above Sainz in more than half of those of not for Ferraris fumbles. Charles has shown in stats that he is not only faster in one lap, but in race pace as well in every free practice. Carlos is the perfect second driver for them tho.
