Congratulations McLaren, another P1 and P2 finish.

Lando was fortunate with the safety car timing again.

The Miami sprint race was a lottery ..

The jackpot was for the papaya team

Piastri pushed very clearly ANT off track .
There wasn't even any talk of an under investigation...

These FIA guys deserve the burn stake (!)

Unacceptable how Red Bull Racing failed to pay attention in the pitlane with the release. Valuable points trashed.

Antonelli: outfoxed by Oscar "Divebomb" Piastri and hit by RBR (unsafe release).

Actually, "noted" is not the same as "under investigation".

As we know : The Red Bull Team is a sinking ship . Too bad (!)
They failed also with Yuki's car . They had to fix Yuki's suspension in park ferme .
That's why Yuki had to start from the pitlane ...

Did you see how the Merc pitcrew blocked MAX in the pit ?
As far I can see there's 5 Merc pitcrew guys in front of MAX's car . I can even see a Merc wheel in front of the RB21 ..
Yeah . It was a mess in the pit and pitlane . But this ?!?!

I just saw the sprint race in the rerun.
....man what a mistake from the RB team for that unsafe release.
They should've pitted Max earlier.
It was already clear that the race had to be finished on slicks, it was just a matter of when, and in that case it's usually better to go in early, provided that the driver then can keep the car on track on slicks in the slightly moist conditions. But I'm sure Max could've

And LEC already crashing before the start. It can happen to the best of them in these conditions, so HAD doesn't have to feel bad for that happening to him in his first race in Australia this year.

No, it was the point that you were criticized for saying that the ANT-PIA incident in Turn 1 wasn't investigated:

And, indeed, no investigation - "noted" was followed by "no further action" instead of "under investigation".

Here's hoping that qualifying is going to be better than the sprint, at least the weather is a complete 180 degree turn..

Also crashed pre-race start (reconnaissance or formation lap) for example:
1995 Monza: pole sitter Coulthard
2020 Hungary: Verstappen
2021 Spa-Francorchamps: Perez
2024 Brazil: Stroll
2025 Australia: Hadjar
