Yeah, McLaren is not acting like a front running team at all. I mean they could've easily hung 1 or both cars out there and responded to Ferrari pitting.

As for team orders ... The balance between a far reaching WDC and keeping both drivers happy enough and just getting the WCC, touch call. I don't envy Stella/Brown for having to make it.

I don't see a world where Max doesn't win the WDC, even with these pace differences

It's still possible, but Lando needed to actually capitalise on this weekend. Even the extra three points if they had decided to swap places with Piastri could end up being the decider, never mind the win. I think you're right Verstappen ends up hanging on to the championship, and it will be all due to McLaren incompetence and stubbornness. Such a frustrating season when it should really be a terrific chase to follow. Does my head in.

Yup, squandered chance is the name of the game

I really donโ€™t see how Piastri with the ultimate โ€œ#2โ€ driver in Webber as his manager is ever going to roll over and help set a status quo where Lando is set to be #1. Itโ€™s something that McLaren through Senna and Prost back in the day knows well and the winner in the end is the driver that takes it all. As an Australian Iโ€™m very happy for Piastri to have the balls to assert this, heโ€™s maybe not going to win this WDC but itโ€™s all positive for the future!

Totally agree. It's a bad idea for the team (could lose his talent) and for Oscar to play this game. If it was 10 points between max and Lando? Sure, play wingman. For this? Nah
