As nothing else has been posted, I figured I'd open this up to discussion.

A brilliant race, I thought. Lots of fantastic battles. An intelligent strategy from Ferrari. Not too chaotic or arbitrary. Albon fighting on 40-lap old tires for a huge P7.

How'd everyone else enjoy it?

I know Max doesn't need the help but my god Perez does not deserve that Red Bull put Norris in it or something.

Put Albon back in that car, now that he has the experience. He's proving how good he is at Williams.

Great idea. Do RB still have an option on him?

[–] WatTyler@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

+1 for putting Norris in as a fan. However if I was Red Bull management I'd keep giving him one year contracts until be becomes a liability. They've got constructors nailed on and a clear driver hierarchy. It's ideal for them.

Yeah they need what Bottas was to Hamilton, up there but never making a serious challenge for number 1 like Rosberg did. Then again Max is so dominant that maybe fixing what's not broken isn't an issue.

I think if I was at Red Bull my primary concern would be Checo getting so demoralised that he becomes a burden.
