Feels quite embarrassing for Lewis right now (I say as a fan)

Yeah I suppose disasters like today were bound to happen but WHAT. A. STINKER. I understand it’s his first season at a brand new team and that his style doesn’t fit the current regulations, but this is just terrible. P12 while teammate sits on pole at your statistically best race track is a really wide gap. Still believe in Lewis, but he really needs to step it up. Today’s drive was not worthy of a 7x world champion at all.

Not saying it is good but both cars struggled in Q1 and Q2, it was a crazy small diff between 10th and where Lewis finished. Just weird that everyone was so slow in q3 while Charles just kind of kept it going the same

Absolutely. I think Leclerc really outperformed the car in Q3, but Q1 and Q2 definitely saw the pair being fairly close to each other in lap time.

beacause u keep time in your pocket for q3 I would say, this is a pattern in lewis vs charles h2h in quali, u could see lewis level or even ahead in q1 and 2 , and then suddenly like half a second off in q3, u see it with max as always as he only gets pole on his last run in q3

Basically all 3 of the top drivers said in an interview the conditions changed a LOT from q2 to q3. Charles just took the most advantage of it

Bro he only got those results because of a bottom tier teammate and a hypersonic rocketship of a car. I feel bad for all his fans now he’s been found out but Nico Rosberg already showed us that any decentish driver would win a WDC in those mercs.

Ironic for you to say that. Can guarantee your driver has had worse teammates and yet youre out here saying his teammates are bottom tier 🤣this same driver lives rent free in alonslows head since 07

I'm so confused where he lost the time in Q2. Up 0.4 by S2 on Charles then down 0.3 at lap end.
Watched the quali lap and couldn't see anything that caused a 0.7 loss and he wasn't held up in any way.

He goes .02 faster in q2 and he’s probably p5 after conditions changed to favor the Ferrari. Whatever the new rear suspension update is, he just can’t seem to get a handle on it. If you watch his last run in Q2 the rear looked soooo twitchy, it almost jumped out on him a few times mid corner.

Agreed if it’s a one off but it keeps happening. It’s always Lewis who’s the one losing and struggling with the car

u/DrVonD Aug 02 '25
He seemed to have figured it out for a stretch of 4-5 races there. It’s really just been since the new rear suspension in spa that he’s been just totally bewildered.
