@Duluth Yep, had some pace prior, see how he goes today. Mclaren again appear to have the speed. Of interest went to the farm supply shop this morning and a young lass behind the counter had Piastris hat on, clearly he is popular which is great.

I feel really mean when I see Tsunoda crash out and I smile...
But I really want to see Liam outscore him as often as possible. (Not personal against Tsunoda just due to the whole situation)
Now he Liam just needs to stay on the track and finish in the points... (fingers crossed)

Liam gets hit with a 5 second penalty that drops him to P14. Disappointing, he just needs to drive cleaner and it's a great result. Then mechanical problems cause him to quali near the rear of the field, replacing the battery will put him in the pit lane for the start of the main race

@canefan Seems the story of his season, must be tough.
I watched the crash. Alonso cut him off when he arguably had the right of way. But instead of tucking back in Liam drove into him. Alonso knew exactly what he was doing though, and didn't leave him much room. The mechanical issues are a pain in the arse

Shut up Lando. You went off because you were going too fast to take the corner behind/alongside another car. That was Verstappen's corner.
Liam at it again too.
Lando displaying an impatience that's costing him results. He is in the better car and should know the opportunities will come to him, not forcing the issue on the first lap.

Apart from the bit about the better car, You could have been talking about Lawson....
