It seems like RB have found a setup that works for Max and Yuki .

What a qualifying!
I just hope there will be some passing in Baku.

Felt so bad for Oscar. But there was no way the car was going to turn with that much lockup going on.

Baku is another street circuit where qualifying is paramount.
Well done, Carlos!

I wonder if Mekies has done some tweeks learned from Racing Bulls and incorporated them at Red Bull ? Seems like the chassis is better for both drivers . Is McLaren spooked by being championship favorites ? Like what is happening with Piastri ? He doesn't make mistakes like he did this weekend . I feel good for Sainz/Lawson/Hadjar/Yuki . Very solid runs . Max was in another zip code

Very interesting qualifying today . Tomorrow could be a good one . Very surprised by the Williams DQ for both drivers . They start 19th and 20th . Hadjar again performs better than Yuki .

Congrats to George for the win and McLaren for the constructors championship . Good race between Max and Lando . Hadjar with a sick engine finishes ahead of Yuki . I wonder if Yuki has been told he is gone at the end of the season . Great finish for Carlos to get a point .

Piastri is a whiney baby just like his manager.

And Hamilton cooked his brakes trying to catch up, and could not stay on track. Alaonzo made up a 40+ second deficit, and was 4/10 of a second behind at the finish. Last I heard Hamilton was going to receive a time penalty for exceeding track limits too many times.
It seems astonishing that a set of carbon - carbon brakes that cost $400,000 per car can be destroyed in one race, or even in just part of a race, when pushing hard.
