Poll: Official 2024 Belgian Grand Prix Race Thread - Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps - Race 14/24

[Mr Jack]

Did anyone else even do a one stopper?

A few. Both Aston's most notably.

 

[the wopster]

The few that said max would breeze through lol, the other cars ain't as slow anymore

Only a great driver when he has a car that’s 1 second faster than everyone else

 

[LizardKing]

Certainly didn't have merc 1 and 2 with a George win on the bingo card!
Decent race overall they were all so close, except Perez...

 

[Kenai]

Fair play to George going for that and pulling it off, not often we see the top three finish that close

embarrassing that you think that.

Fair enough.

Red Bull never looked as fast in the practice sessions. People are too quick to write stuff off these days, based on one wet quali. :'D

 

[iamtheoneneo]

Good job George, what a performance. Very impressive.
Perez needs to go!

 

[Mr Jack]

It was the start that cost him again not sure about pit stopping

The 2s he lost by hitting the jack man cost him the chance at a win, but I don't think he'd have got them even with time to attack.

Or, if I could read, I'd have noticed you were talking about Norris

 

[Flibster]

And it's Guenther!

Lando was so poor this race.

I was laughing listening to commentary as if Oscar was going to catch them both plus over take he was fair amount behind.

Oscar did say it clean air is king its what made the difference could Lando have gone all the way with the hards?

Mclaren are not good at strategy at all.

After his bitchy comments to Lewis in last races cool down room his shine wore off a bit for me. If he really wants to win the WDC he has to be winning and not making mistakes on the first lap.

Most importantly you need to be out scoring the guy leading the championship!!

I think moving the DRS zone further up the straight made a huge difference. Would have been a breeze to overtake previously. Not a bad thing tbh.

Tsunoda - P17
Magnussen - P15
Stroll - P12
Alonso - P9

Not fit to lace Schumacher or Hamilton’s boots

 

[cuke2u]

George played a blinder but otherwise not one of the best Belgium GP's at all.

 

[SpartaP]

Perez starts 2nd, Max 11th...

Flip that round you know Max would be winning or at very least retain position.

Perez Perez Perez...what excuses was he saying again about his car? Lol

Yep this is how it was always supposed to work, give a little help, not just give the car behind a extremely easy option to overtake from miles away

 

[SpartaP]

George really loves this one, gg!

 

[Flibster]

Red Bull stuck a set of softs on Perez and got him an extra point for the fastest lap right at the end.

 

[Mr Jack]

11th to 5th, here, in a car that was 2nd or 3rd fastest? Nah, Max delivered a great recovery drive today.
