re: 2024 Formula 1 season Thread

Just now getting to post. Super happy for Lando. He's obviously one of/the most likeable guy on the grid with his peers. Almost every driver walked out to congratulate him. Well deserved win.

Umm, did anyone mention that Sainz finished P4 and Perez finished P5, but Sainz received a post-race 5-second penalty, so the final race standings has Perez in P4 and Sainz in P5. Perez still crossed the line P5; he sucks.

Odd penalty. Feel like Piatsri was more at fault there than Sainz. He was definitely complaining more than normal yesterday, but I think he was probably frustrated from the get go seeing as on lap one he gets to P2 and Checco comes flying in on a straight line and almost caused a Nascar pile up. Plus he pits one lap before the yellow flag. Overall a decent finish but it probably was a frustrating drive.
