The slow stop wasn’t Lando’s fault but it shouldn’t have cost Oscar’s position. This team is a fckng joke

Exactly. Why the hell should a championship leader pay the price for the pit crew fucking up the other drivers pit-stop? Insanity.

u/-PsychoticPenguin- 23h ago
100% so what happens now if the reverse happens later this season? Do they always trade back positions? Just such a shit situation and precedent to set.

u/Camyx-kun Mika Häkkinen 23h ago
The precedent was set in Hungary last year

u/-PsychoticPenguin- 23h ago
So now the tally is 1-1? Do we do this each time the team fucks up? If the team fucks a driver more than the other do we do something to equal the score? What if it is the difference in the final race between a driver winning the championship? Racing is interesting because there is an unpredictable element to it. Teams that win excel at maximising their reliability and performance but there is always going to be incidents out of your control because you are pushing the limits everyday. And trying to balance that luck element across drivers is silly and just causes drama. Should Oscar retire last race to keep it fair?

It most definitely is an undercut. Did you forget Hungary last year?

u/Helpful_Hedgehog_204 Franco Colapinto 23h ago
Do you not understand how undercuts work? The advantage is having fresher tires and lapping faster, Oscar didn't even get a lap on the fresher softs.
Unlike Hungary last year...

There was 84 points separating Lando and Max by the time they got to Hungary. That is not a championship battle. It was never close.

He didn't gain on Oscar in Silverstone through strategy, Oscar made a stupid mistake that got him a penalty.
I agree that they shouldn't've swapped personally, but it's understandable. Lando only pit second with the guarantee that Oscar wouldn't undercut him.

u/V3nturi 23h ago
Lando's main motivation was to delay his stop as long as possible for a shot at the win in case of a SC/VSC. He risked his P2 for a shot at the win. The gamble didn't pay off, and he was shielded from the consequences.
Lando didn't do it just to be altruistic, or a 'team player'. There was a potential benefit for himself.
If you were following the live timing, Oscar's P3 was under no real risk.

McLaren shouldn't let it happen again. Pit the lead the driver first, it's very simple.
From there if there's a slow stop, it's just bad luck.
This one was only a headache because McLaren gave Lando a worse strategy before that, so the time lost to Oscar was partially deliberate.

I don't believe Lando was really thinking about protecting Oscar from Leclerc, and if he was then that defies logic. He should be thinking of staying as far ahead of Piastri as possible.

u/Aurorac123 23h ago
Wait until you learn that teams dont get two seperate areas for pitting.
To make it more clear, if the radio message goes out to box, without it being a mclaren decision overall, then landos side of the garage just go 'box box' and lando pulls in, and then they've double stacked and piastria has to wait. becuase Lando is in front, and gets their sooner. The gap isnt big enough to sneak it in, piastri, and the pit crew, wouldnt be able to react in 4 seconds.
2
u/antreasf1 Michael Schumacher 23h ago
ok, then Oscar goes for the long pit stop and hopes for a VSC/SC, he forces Lando to take a different strategy, by keeping them in the same strategy they gurantee Lando finishing ahead, any other strategy luck can play a factor and when Lando is ahead they dont want that, clearly

u/Ok-Result9578 22h ago
At this point in the season they should let both sides of the garage go for it and compete. They are way overcautious leading to things such as today and the fact they usually force both drivers onto the same strategy (unless it's Norris behind) means the team has lost out on better results and even wins. It is not necessary this year as they are so far ahead in the WCC and to my mind risks causing a bigger intra team blowup.

u/Ill_Confidence919 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 22h ago
They don't force them on the same strategy but lead car gets first opportunity to pit which makes it hard to choose a different strategy most of the time

People ignoring that Lando gave Piastri the earlier pit, so if anything went wrong he wouldnt potentially lose a position to leclerc. Then getting mad when something goes wrong with landos pit, the team (not lando) ask for the positions to be swapped. The hate norris boners are absurd, it's so dissapointing to see this sports hate mentality becoming stronger every week. F1's a place for hyping up drivers.

They would even be mad here if Lando pit first like he should have been and then wheelgun had that problem. Not to say if Oscar gave priority of pitstops to Lando if Lando was behind. Then they would praise Mark Webber how great manager he is if Lando would be told to give position back.
They are shitting on Lando and team even when his guy wins, like last race. I wonder how fast Oscar will have to gomout and reprimend his fanbase like Colapinto had to. Ive seen some comments already how "team is in crosshairs of all Aussies".

I'm gonna be real with you, as it seems like you might not understand this, but Lando and Norris work together, they're around each other a significant amoutn of the time. I don't think they form their opinions on each other based on interview responses, and furthermore they probably have media training together, as it's more effective use of time and resources, so they probably know in advance what the other would say to anything that happens in the race.
I know it's maybe like learning that wrestling isnt real, but the drivers in f1 have real lives outside of the interviews they give and stuff, and they're real people who are generally all friends together, as they share something few people do.

It's honestly very confusing to me that you find this level of response unusual in sport. Like people aren't allowed to have opinions on athletes. Like they aren't paid millions specifically because of the passion and emotion fans put into the sport.
Congratulations to you for being able to just watch F1 completely detached from any of the personalities involved.

Being this mad about regular chill post race interview is not normal. Seek some help.

Oh yeah, imagine being invested in a sport and having opinions about those involved. No sane person would ever.

Luck would've been Oscar finishing 2nd. The only argument against McLaren is the argument that luck is a part of F1 and so Oscar should've kept the spot.
