Our compatriot starts 5th on grid. Survival of the wettest.
Tsunoda in P3, so the young kids of VCARB had a good morning

Much as I don’t like him O for awesome for Verstappen. But Lawson great finishing 9 holding off Hamilton and most importantly Perez for 15 odd laps. Insane race.
-
@Billy-Tell 17th to a fifth of a lap faster than anyone else. Ridiculous.
-
Yeah, much as I hate the way he drives, rain really evens out the differences in car performance, leaving driver talent to shine.
He reminds me of Schumacher a bit. The best driver, but also a total psychopath who will do anything to win. Sometimes I wonder if Senna and Schumacher's legacies actually do more damage to F1 by encouraging drivers to think anything is okay to get the win.

Perez goneburgers in Q1. Lawson thru by the skin of his teeth.

Perez is total dead weight

Tsunoda is making Lawson sweat. They might promote him instead.

Did Lawson make it to Q3?
Edit: I see he failed to advance from Q2. He's never raced in Las Vegas I believe, not bad

Rotten race from Lawson. Easily overtaken and poor race strategy. Yuki showing how it’s done.

He didn't even fight. Are his tires fucked?

Basically last, can't really count Bottas.

Reckon that’s sealed his fate. Best he can hope for is to keep his red bull seat. Yuki should get promoted and Perez fired

I have no idea what they were doing with his stops. Why tf did they wait until lap 39 of 50 to give him fresh rubber? He finished the race with perfectly good tyres on it. Might have been understandable if they had put another set of mediums on that would have been gone in 12 or so. Was like they forgot about it. Just weird.
Anyone explain that?

Think they planned a one stop race but then he started getting overtaken easily by every man and his dog so they realised he needed new tires. Don’t know why they didn’t put mediums on though.

You have limited sets of tyres, could be something to do with that
