1st race and already a 4x WDC. Really special

Franz Hermann didn't do his championship aspirations any favours yesterday with his petulant performance in the closing stages of the Catalunya race. Right or wrong, what he did was inexcusable and he's made himself at tad more unlikeable than he already was. I've been rooting for him for a long time, but he's become somewhat of a prima donna of late.

Brain fart by red bull putting him on hard tyres. Should have left him out and he would have restarted in the lead. Hard tyres was always going to see him slide down the field. 
 

strategy failure. I also think McLaren failed on the strategy front earlier on as one of the cars should have shadowed max. But alas it turned out ok for them this time but next time maybe not.

I agree that RB dropped the ball and made him pay, both with the hard tyre and then making him let Russell by, but his intentional banging wheels is tasteless,  dangerous and painfully stupid considering the outcome. He should know better and this will probably end up being one of those pivotal moments where he could end up needing a few points at the end of the season to be crowned WDC again, but then end up short, and had he just kept his composure in tact he would have had them. 

At least Le Clerc benefitted, and I'm stoked for Piastri, if only because I have him as my main fantasy league driver 🥳

63 is a whinging Pom that needs to grow a set. All he does is whine like a toff whose favourite jumper has been mislaid. 
 

this is F1 , its racing. They could take a leaf out of real racers books like Isle of Man racers. 
 

james hunt would be crying now.
