Chuck even told them to leave the cars as they were. To all the 44 fans, welcome to hell
On the bright side, it was a good race for Lewis in terms of relative pace to Charles.
For Sure!!

Disgusting dominance. At least there's two cars (sort of) rather than just one that's quick.

4/6 wins for Piastri, great job. Lando is too lazy in race craft, Oscar is much more clinical.

McLaren devastating, european summer races will be a blood bath for the others.

Nicely done Piastri.
Russell with the usual quiet and somehow good result.
Great race by Albon.
Russel was absolutely gifted that p3, because of VSC.

Btw, where are the guys saying how the RB is now the best car? Can you say that with a straight face now?

The McLaren is a rocketship. I dare Norris not to win the championship in the fastest car.

Oscar Piastri led a domininant McLaren 1-2 finish at the Miami Grand Prix. After clearing pole sitter Verstappen the McLaren duo ran away with supreme pace and finished more than 30 seconds ahead of third place finisher George Russell.

So Russell finished 37.6 sec behind the race winning mclaren. This was a rb19 like performance by Macca. McLaren absolutely destroyed the field.

I think rbr tried to lean the setup more towards quali and thought they could maintain track position. But boy did that backfire. They got eaten alive by both Maccas.

The Williams was about as fast as the Ferrari this race. Worrying times for the scuderia.

This mclaren is much, much more dominant than the RB was at any point in 2023, they just don't have the best driver in it.

I'm not so sure about that. Norris has not had a good start to the season but I fancy him to get going and overturn it with 3/4 of the season left

Norris has pace. I think it'll be a good title fight and I think Norris will take it.

yes, Norris has a bit more pace in race, but he lacks racecraft and doesn't handle well pressure. They have strong and weak points, it'll be an "interesting" title fight. Not sure who I would pick at the moment., maybe Oscar

Oscar is absolutely clinical. What a race. Something to learn from by almost every other driver today to NOT try to stay on the outside when you know you have a car coming on the inside. Set up for the switchback, and we are left with no controversies and great racing.

Toto will be busy tonight with a new attempt to try to sign Max, and it won’t be that hard for much longer I’m sure.

It's just incredible how much mechanical clutch this McLaren has, it reminded me of the RB14 in 2018, the tire management and the hitch were also crazy

I think he'll be quite happy with what he has.
