I don’t think it was intentional to undercut Piastri. I think they boxed to cover off Hamilton and then Lando put up a ridiculous out lap.

Looks awesome. Great work and I’m sure your kid will get plenty of fun out of it.

I just can’t get over Perez missing Q3 again. To make that many track limit mistakes shows his head clearly isn’t in it.

His race pace the last few races has been concerning, but the terrible performances in qualifying is just dumbfounding. The Red Bull has such a gap on the rest of field, shown by Max, that Checo should never be in danger of missing Q3 barring a crash or mechanical failure.

I know his seat is probably safe as long as Red Bull stays solidly ahead in the constructors, but if he keeps performing this poorly RBR has to at least look at potential options for next season.

They aren’t even comparing to Max though. The only Red Bull mention in the article is saying they were fast enough to keep Checo behind over the duration of the race.

It has been a pretty great turnaround, but they still have a lot of work to go. I think their car is still slightly behind Aston on general race pace, but they are mostly ahead of Ferrari and competitive with Alonso.
