THE CROWN JEWEL!!

  MONACO GRAND PRIX 2025 photo credit: motorsport.com LANDO is back!!! Lando Norris has proved all the haters wrong!! He won the Monaco Grand Prix. Norris has shown everyone that he is not playing second fiddle to Oscar, he is here to win the championship. He put out a brilliant lap in qualifying ahead of the Monegasque, Charles Leclerc on his second run on the same tire to take pole. As it is known in Monaco, if a driver gets pole, they are likely to win and that's what happened. There was pressure on him throughout the race by Charles but he was just fast enough to keep Charles behind and win in the end, which is what matters.  Currently  Norris is only 3 points behind Oscar, so there is a possibility that he might lead the championship at the end of the next race. Overall, a very good result  for McLaren with them finishing P1 and P3, taking away 40 points. Honestly, this was the maximum Oscar could do as Charles was just flying throughout the weekend so P3 was th...

NEVER COUNT HIM OUT!

  EMILIA-ROMAGNA GRAND PRIX 2025 photo credit: straittimes.com Never count the Dutchman out of it! Max Verstappen won the Emilia- Romagna grand prix in utter finesse and style dominating from turn one to the end of the race. Even though it was the McLaren boy Oscar Piastri who had pole position, Max Verstappen swooped around the outside of him into the lead of the race in turn 1 and after that he was never to be seen, continuing to march on his way to victory.  The McLaren boys were unlucky also as the VSC and the actual safety car both went against them, giving Max a even larger advantage. In the closing stages of the race Oscar was P2 behind Max and Lando was P3 behind Oscar, but the situation was such that Lando was on fresh tires and Oscar on 20 lap old ones, yet Lando was not let by. In the end, Max got an easy win but the fans got to see a spectacular battle between the papaya boys in which no doubt Lando came out on top with the given tyre advantage. Overall, good resul...

Miami Madness!!!

  MIAMI GRAND PRIX 2025 photo credit: formula1.com PIAS-THREE! Oscar Piastri has made it three in a row. Dominating the race and looks like now even the whole season. This week Oscar again dominated the race from start to end amassing his 6th career win which puts him a race win above his teammate Lando Norris who is considerably more experienced and has many more race starts under his belt than Oscar. Oscar this season has come out from under the shadows and has become the main candidate for winning the world championship this season. Due to the incident between Max and Lando in the start of the race and a superb start from Oscar himself, he slid up from P4 to P2 in a short amount of time. Even though he was on the back foot after qualifying he made up for it beautifully with wonderful presence of mind and car positioning to get to P2 behind Max. From there on, Oscar just closed in on Max lap by lap which lead to a brilliant battle stirring up between Max and Oscar in which ultima...
