2023 British Grand Prix Post Race Discussion

Decent race that for the most part, plenty of action, some really poor decisions costing Ferrari and McLaren during the safety car.

11 wins in a row for RBR. Max is always ruining things for everyone haha!

I'm gutted for Oscar missing out on the podium, just got unlucky with the pitstop/safety car. But that's Formula 1. Still, getting P4 in your rookie year is a great achievement, I think he's a real talent. And brilliant for Lando, that was excellent defending to hold off Lewis on much faster tyres.

Red Bull getting 11 in a row is just crazy, I think the count might grow. Uninspiring drive by Perez, did what he had to do and dragged the car up the field, but he should be finishing 2nd every single race in that car. I think he's badly underperforming.

And Ferrari ... lol. 4th and 5th to 9th and 10th. Awful day for them.

Brundle was talking about Piastri undercutting Norris with his hard tyre pace and then the safety car happened.

I don't think Oscar drove any worse than Lando today. I can see him regularly beating Norris next year.

yeah his pace was essentially same-ish, wasn't it? Great drive

Checo kinda got fucked in Qualifying though, sending him out first. We would have made it into Q3 for sure if RB had waited like they did for Verstappen.

You say that, but then Albon was right behind him in the queue, and qualified

I think the mistake was that Checo planned two laps, and the yellow flags broke it, but Albon really makes even that theory moot
