Yeah, what an overtake that was. Right on the edge, but pulled off his only opportunity sublimely.

Didn't stay up but it was a very good drive by Oscar. Great overtake and nice blocking by Lando. It's funny Max Verstappen has become quite prickly now the Red Bull isn't dominating

Another brilliant overtake against a very strong driver. You can just see him getting better race by race. If McLaren can keep going the way they are with the car he will be right in the championship fight next year.

I was listening to a podcast , and they were saying that the car at the moment isn’t suited to his balls to wall type of style .
I think that’s ironic considering the way his style led to soo many incidents the last couple of years .
I reckon he will be at Mercedes either next year or the year after .
I can actually see Oscar being the one to replace him. I can’t see McLaren giving up on Norris . Maybe even Verstappen to Aston Martin if Adrian Newey can work wonders there .

They are leading the drivers championship by 20 points

They are leading constructors yes, and I think they’ll win it, but I’m talking drivers championship. Things can change over the winter break but if they still have a car capable next year I think he beats Norris. He may still beat his this year yet.

Yeah I think from memory Norris was 60 odd points behind and Piastri 90 behind
