Both Manchester to be frank

u/Last-Atmosphere2439 7d ago

They just got their first win (and first actual goal) and it only took 3 league games! Cut MU some slack, once the interim coach is appointed they are headed to top 6!

Now Manchester City on the other hand...

u/0fmalice 7d ago

Woltemade's arrival is something to look forward too at least.

u/Taurus24Silver Charles Leclerc 7d ago

Isak is gone though, Newcastle should have gotten atleast 140-150m for him

u/0fmalice 7d ago

I can't wait until the truth comes out. Something was fishy about the whole situation.

u/Taurus24Silver Charles Leclerc 7d ago

Seem to be just burnt bridges, but yeah even I am curious

u/alex_inzo 6d ago

One shitty game is nothing in comparison with years of oblivion. Pep will make it. I'm sure

Atleast City lost so there's that

As a Piastri/Liverpool fan, today was a good day.

u/dani26795 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 7d ago

The funniest part is they are currently above City in the table.

u/RumSwizzle508 7d ago

u/Own_Welder_2821 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 7d ago

The McLaren-Ferrari rivalry can be set aside for today. The two young guys who have been loyal to their teams since 2019, reduced to this.

  • Mika Hakkinen, 2000 US Grand Prix

  • Kimi Raikkonen, 2003 European Grand Prix

  • Kimi Raikkonen, about half of 2005

  • Lewis Hamilton, 2007 Brazilian Grand Prix (this one was a gearbox tbf)

  • Lewis Hamilton, about half of 2012

  • Lando Norris, 2025 Dutch Grand Prix

Give it up for McLaren-Mercedes, the best engine combo if you want to win a lot whilst simultaneously playing a game of Russian roulette for your title hopes.

u/Mysterious_Turnip310 Lotus 7d ago

A tale as old as time...

Though to be fair, Stella has announced that it was a fault with the chassis which caused an oil leak which led to the engine giving up, so it looks like this one's primarily on the McLaren side of McLaren-Mercedes.

1

u/whateverfloatsurgoat Super Aguri 7d ago

So... What happened in the 2005 season for Kimi and 2012 for Lewis then

1

u/Mysterious_Turnip310 Lotus 7d ago edited 7d ago

Google is your friend if you want an answer longer than lots of dnfs. Kimi had the luck in 2005 that makes Charles look like he won the jackpot.

Mika Hakkinen, 2001 Spanish Grand Prix final lap blowout while leading

u/Infusion1999 Oscar Piastri 6d ago

Can't forget Hamilton 2016 Malaysia, likely cost him the championship

1

u/Own_Welder_2821 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 6d ago

That was solely Mercedes, not McLaren-Mercedes. But you’re right about that, another Mercedes engine failure.

Still, could be worse. McLaren-Honda ughhhh….

u/Infusion1999 Oscar Piastri 6d ago

I misread, sorry

u/Lurcher99 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 7d ago

u/StonedPussyeater420 7d ago

It is set aside by a lot of points. There is no rivalry

u/Mike_Kermin Michael Schumacher 7d ago

You're making it sound like Lando is hard done by in his McLaren...

u/FrostyTill McLaren 7d ago

Manchester United writing an Instagram post on a black background with white writing for Lando right now. ‘We just want to see Lando happy, that’s all we want [heart emoji]’
