Not as exciting as I had hoped, but still a decent race.
I donโt see Red Bull stoping at just 12 consecutive wins, itโs going to be a season for the record books.

MODERATORS
I genuinely could see them winning every remaining race. Theyโre rapid in race trim and itโs not even close.
In the hands of Verstappen yes, with Perez not a guarantee
If he hadnโt started in P9 he probably would have caught Norris
If he hadnโt started in P9
Good point. Red Bull should replace Checo with whoever is second in points to ensure continued dominance.
Yes weโve had 12 Max wins, but what about 13?
Piastri with another solid race which for me, proves his quality. He has been on the pace immediately when given the upgrades and I have no doubt he can take a win either this season or next (assuming McLaren keep up the car development)
Fucking Nico throwing in a "you know, I too have 7 consecutive wins" in the interview lol
To be fair Max asked him what his record was.
Max knows a lot of stats, heโs pretty good at those quizzes they play on the f1 YouTube channel. In the interview it looked like he already knew Nicoโs record was 7 before he asked
Donโt forget he beat Lewis Hamilton in Equal Machinery too!
Sure, that he fought tooth and nail for. This is a whole other level of domination
Congrats again but is anyone else getting bored of this? Putting me off the sport to be frank
In terms of race wins, yeah it would be nice to see some variety. But if you ignore what's going on with Max, it's still exciting to watch the rest of the field changing round race after race. AM, Merc, Ferrari and now McLaren keeping us guessing who else is going to be on the podium, and Checo being a bit of a wildcard keeps the races interesting at least.
I get your point but it's a bit difficult to ignore the most significant position in a race especially seeing how significant of an event it was that someone other than Verstappen picked up pole in qualifying yesterday
I don't mean this in a disparaging way, new fans are just as important and their passion just as valid as grizzled ones.
But this era of domination isn't new or unusual. Honestly, before Red Bull, it was Merc, then Red Bull. Every regs era has been dominated by a team. Some have been closer than others, but generally there's always been one which is 90% better than the rest in terms of wins. It only changes towards the last couple of years before a regs change.

As someone who has sat though years of Mercedes domination I am happy for a change of leadership. The past three seasons have been more exciting in general as well. Get back to me when Resbull wins the 8th consecutive constructors in 2029.
Yes, this.
It was Lewis(2014), Lewis(2015), Nico(2016), Lewis(2017), Lewis(2018, Lewis(2019), Lewis (2020).
WTC? Even more boring, merc all the way. With the wdc we at least had Nico once.
And now people are moaning after 2 years? Come on, deal with it. It sounds more and more like chauvinistic bs if you look at the stats objectively.
The rest in f the field has been pretty mobile. McLaren coming up through the ranks. AM slipping down. Mercedes clawing out what they can. Ferrari Ferrari-ing. Plus Williams popping up out of nowhere. The overall, a pretty good season if you take out the front runners, which prob makes most seasons more interesting anyway
It's definitely cool to see how dynamic P2 and below could be
I started watching during Merc dominance, so itโs nothing new. Iโm more excited for the fight for P2 every race now. Weโve genuinely got 4.5 teams in contention for it every race, and itโs been incredibly competitive so far.
This is better than HAM VER BOT or VER HAM BOT every race
Haha I'm curious who that ".5" is in your reply here
Perez since he doesnโt seem to be able to lock out second place.
Technically only 1 Aston is fighting for it too, so it might round out to an even 4
It honestly doesn't bother me. Formula 1 is just as much an engineering competition as it is a driving competition. This is just the nature of non-spec series.
Not to mention the fantastic competition behind RB.
Not at all. The fight for podium is pretty tense now that Mercedes and McLaren are more equal.
I havenโt watched any of the last 4 of the Max Verstappen Invitational Races.

Does Lemmy have a spoiler tag or anything? If it doesn't we need one.
spoiler
It does
Doesn't work on at least my mobile app.
Worked for me on Jerboa. Its an issue with your app
Sometimes it really seems like Max is playing a video game and everyone is in Race mode, but he's fucking doing "Time Trial"...
This man is fucking ridiculous, heโs gonna win every remaining race of the season
If weโre not going to post spoiler warnings, Iโm gonna need to block the entire community.
Just temporarily block the community whenever you haven't watched the race yet to avoid spoilers. Formuladank as well if you're subscribed there. That's what I did on Reddit and I do it here as well.
Sounds like what Iโll do. The mods on Reddit were stubbornly against any spoiler warnings. Hoping we could have that here.
Same, but ill probably just forget to unblock it eventually lol
Need spoiler tags over there Mods at Lemmy.world
I see spoiler tags have been agreed.
He is inevitable
Max is honestly just practicing to overtake slower classes once he switches to endurance by now
Absolutely dominant season from Max and Red Bull.
All victories for RB until the end. No wonder why Domenicali is on favor to let in 4 to F1...
~~The Field Is Closing Up To Red Bullโข~~
Man, this season is too boring. But it's not his fault. He is unstoppable and Red Bull is a step above everyone else. The fight between the other teams is cool though. Aston Martin dropped off a lot.
Holy shit he talked so much. 12 wins in a row does mean something!
