Fucking max...starts 4th ends with a 13 second lead, cars a rocketship.

While complaining at the start that the car is not working perfectly and working to improve it to a race winning config with his race engineer. Both Hamilton and Norris collapsed under pressure, but Max is consistently pumping out high performance.

It really still amazes me that none of the other drivers can come close.

Dudes a machine, he has laser precision all the time.

I dont think u can say lewis folded under pressure that car is a shitbox. Noris did get over eager and should have been conservative to have a chance later on as maclaren does have pace advantage on merc..

He went wide in the lap before Max overtook him iirc. And he's been struggling with that corner all weekend.

Ofcourse Norris was in a much more extreme manner.
