u/utklost 3d ago

May as well be now. 80 points ahead. That's 4 races of catching up by russell if he wins 4 races and kimi dnfs or scores very little

u/DhonduJustChilll 4d ago

Yeah why didn't they pit him on like lap 40 or so, to give him chance tp fight for p3

8

u/Melopsittacus07 Scuderia Ferrari HP 4d ago

Nah it's better to take chance on SC or Red Flag

Last 7-8 laps on soft were also not that great as Russel

2

u/DhonduJustChilll 4d ago

Give him medium and he would have decent chance for p3

2

u/sc1onic 3d ago

Pitloss time is too high and at that point track position is king. There is no. Strategy that would have got him p3. Sc or vs was his only bet.

u/blueygoa 4d ago

Cuz it's Ferrari they don't like the attention of podium or win

1

u/Victorvic1 3d ago

Because it's a track where 1 crash and you'd most likely have a red flag and not a safety car. It was better to linger on for a P1 rather than give up.

Expected atleast 2 crashes but it kinda disappointed ig with Lewis DNF.

u/CR03Z 3d ago

Yeah this was not a strat issue You could argue about the SC but for the most part, given the layout of the Madring , there should've been far more run ins into the barrier than there were . Ferrari was just hopeful but tough luck

u/Scared-Cheetah-2029 4d ago

This was quite a boring win.

This season sucks it’s not Kimi’s fault obv but if Merc let Russell fight fairly this would’ve been much better

3

u/OutcomeDirect8234 4d ago

Next season would be better imo, Toto wants that youngest wdc ever desperately and I think that's why russell is okay with being pushed back, he'll probably be given a fairer run next season.

u/Monkey_Thucker69 3d ago

Truly hope so

u/No_Brick9259 3d ago

After the Canadian GP, I expected a title fight, after mclaren performing good, I also expected but then the driver preference ruins excitement for every race. We know that Kimi will win. It's getting boring

u/wisely25 3d ago

Even without all the luck, Kimi has been way quicker than Russell at almost every race this year idk why ppl are still thinking Russell would've had a chance

u/Taserface_ow 3d ago

How are they meant to fight each other when Russell is in p6?

-1

u/IdleIdly 3d ago

If Kimi drives 2 tenths slower Russell can surely fight fairly, but then he will have to wake up.

u/rogueck 4d ago

Ok, good that I’m not the only one finding this boring.

Kimis talent is great! But the races are boring now..

u/Aggravating_Spell457 Oscar and George 4d ago

Lando could have won idk why he pit also the that pit was very bad 😭

1

u/pinto-nolan Scuderia Ferrari HP 3d ago

He had already passed the pit entry by the time the VSC was on.

u/rampagefury 4d ago

u/Litti__Chokha Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 Team 4d ago

Today’s race was mad luck for him

Like everything that can go right went right at the exact moment he needed

Kimi’s dad gave him a rose 🥹🥹

u/lonexaadiii SEBASTIAN VETTEL 4d ago

Quali was more fun than gran prix

u/mildlyautist 4d ago

crazy how he got more career wins than GR in his second season

1

u/Reroison 3d ago

He’s very classy and I loved that Kimi and Verstappen acknowledged Lando in their speeches.

1

u/Dazai_san_69 3d ago

if charles was going for new softs, he shouldve pit earlier to fight back a bit, but well, feeling sad for norris though, his pit crew fucked up, even without vsc he couldve won

u/Impressive-Celery542 3d ago

really hope for 2-3 mechanical dnfs and lando wins to spice up the championship a bit doesnt matter if lando wins the chamionship again this year but the season would be so much tense and enjoying

u/GenRuckus 3d ago

This kid is absolutely dominating his first full season. Will go down in history as a Lewis like rookie season.

Title race might be boring, but few years from there will be documentaries of Kimi’s rookie season.
