2025 McLaren F1 Team

We do everything to let Max win i cant see how can we win… actually no wa

It’s sad there was no challenge but a crash is more devastating than losing 7 points. It’s unfortunate but maximise points where you can. Norris qualy position is now showing where Maclaren is unable to put the pressure on Max. A 10sec lead just to pass GR is such awful.

Problem was Oscar slept at the start…

[Ben1980]

Lando and Max getting this to be a 1 stop surely.

[Mcl_G10]

Max starting to lose a little? Edit, No

If max pits soon and before norris then lando must extend and push to the maximum to come put better placed than 9 sec for second stint

His start was fine, his approach to the fist corner was a Sunday drive.

lol VSC at least

[ScottR267]

How unfortunate with the timing of that VSC

[wickedz50]

Today luck is simply not there, VSC just after both the McLaren cars have pitted

[Mcl_G10]

Of coarse now a vsc

[Ben1980]

Team have had luck with safety cars, so can't complain.

[Darth-Piekus]

Ocon's car wasnt on a dangerous place to warrant a VSC. Extremely suspicious.

[Mcl_G10]

Race over unless we get a full safety car

[Ground Effect]

McLaren should have just mirrored Max, it wasn't clever to pit early.

[wickedz50]

There is nothing to be done for this. Extremely unfortunate.

[Darth-Piekus]

Max in the meantime did not race with 30% less speed as he increased his distance during the VSC instead of the distance staying equal.

Lando had got the gap to 9 seconds, but was going back to 10 quickly. He needed to stop or would be undercut if tyres going off.

It was just unfortunate that Max got a cheap stop.
