last year in suzuka lando was mclaren’s leading car yet they took away his pit priority and gave it to oscar HIS CHAMPIONSHIP RIVAL because he claimed he was faster. they pitted him first to try and undercut lando but it didn’t work. all it achieved was exposing lando’s strategy which resulted in him racing max out of the pit lane the following lap.
yesterday, there was no championship on the line. mclaren don’t even have the fastest car so this could’ve been their best chance to win a race this year. lando asked for the exact same thing and was denied.
and you know what’s funny? the driver and the fans that screamed at mclaren to prioritize the second car last year are the ones mad now because this time the second car was ACTUALLY faster and was able to get ahead even without pit priority.
"I could have pulled away a whole pit-stop window, I think, on him & boxed again if I needed to" bro you couldn't overtake him without team orders just shut up
this and the silverstone 2025 radio. he always thinks lando should be punished for things he has nothing to do with? like what was he supposed to do? not take the opportunity?
“in the moment i was hoping maybe they would not pit lando because of that incident , to at least give me the chance to stay in the lead but i think that’s not very reasonable” where is the shame man 😭😭 you would never catch lando saying this shit if it was the other way around
Oscar literally said on radio how he has no tyres, Norris was closing in so McLaren pitted to COVER OFF Norris and somehow piastri (and his fans) think it favours Norris???
2nd yr in a row Norris pulled off alternate strategy against Piastri so maybe PIA is the problem here😭
whoever thinks piastri wholeheartedly deserved the win based off of the opening laps alone i attribute to the same people who believe he deserved the wdc last season based off his china-spain run alone
story of the moral don’t get too complacent too quick😹😹
