Amazing race today. Lando is such a raw talent and is becoming of the future champions..

Guys stop bashing Danny for todays performance. Look at Alonso (outpaced by Ocon) and Vettel (consistently slower than Stroll). Even Bottas strugled and was almost passed by a Williams. Drivers that were new to their team struggled significantly today.

No one from you guys seems to like the soft tyres. But they do the drivers a lot good things this season until now (start performance, cold weather, safety car restarts). Maybe they changed in this direction this season. Too Ricciardo, he is obviously not there with the car in difficult race weekends, but it will come. Bravo to the team, it performs very good.

Putting Bottas in that list isn't helping your case. :D

For McLaren to be in a position like this after a couple of races and with so much more to come from Ricciardo is very positive news.

He will get stronger and stronger like he did at Red Bull and Renault

That's the hope, yes. Hopefully Lando's impressive form will motivate DR to work even harder.

If Danny does not improve before the Summer break, we should try and get Lewis back in the car. He doesn’t seem too happy at Mercedes this year.

I mean for 2022 obviously. Would love to see him end his career at where it all started.

I knew what you were implying, but I see zero chance of that. If anything, I think McLaren could lose Lando to Mercedes, if he keeps putting in good performances, and Bottas bad ones.

I think that’s a pipe dream. If there’s any other British talent to grab with long term success in mind its George Russell.

Anyway- Ricciardo will be AWESOME in this car as we progress

Incredible performance again.

RIC is strangely slow but we all know that his true pace is nothing like this, so it will be better soon.

Ferrari is close though, I think it may be a battle this year

Yeah, based on past experiences, Daniel should be able to produce exceptional performances once he gets up to speed with the car. I just hope that happens sooner rather than later. It's very important for the constructor's battle as well because Ferrari was there with both drivers today.

It is really different indeed some driver like SAI seem to have no issues to change car

But RIC is suffering, VET as well
