Max wins another one. The Red Bull just did not have the pace of the McLarens yet they won due to the risky gamble of McLaren that did not play out as they predicted. Max pitting under the safety car with others basically awarded him win the win. Yuki finally scored a single point finishing in 10th.

McLaren regardless of knowing when Max was going to pit due to the 25 lap limit, still could not win. The cars were faster than the Red Bull but just not enough to make the deficit they had to Max due to not pitting under the safety car. Just horrible strategy by them to start 1-2 but finish 2 and 4.

As for Williams, just a sublime race with Carlos finishing in P3, holding off Norris' attack till the end.

Just amazing driving skills portrayed by him. As for Albon he finished just out of the points in P11.

Mercedes again better than Ferrari and finishing in P5 and P6, a good race for them.

Ferrari were just dreadfully slow with Charles finishing in P8 and Lewis in P12. Just a horrible race for them

Alonso, the old maestro some how made the strategy work and finished in P7 ahead of both Ferrari drivers. As for Lance, he did not finish the race.

Again Alpine were slowest of all runners as usual.

Kick Sauber had a bad weekend with no pace in their cars and on top of that Nico colliding with Gasly, ending his race.

Similarly, the Haas car also lacked pace.

Regardless, it was a good race swinging the lead back in Max's favor, though Lando has a 12 point margin still over Max. Who will win will only be known at the final lap at the Abu Dhabi grand prix.

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...

PURE DOMINANCE!!!

SPANISH GRAND PRIX 2025 photo credit: outlookindia.com OSCAR PIASTRI WINS IN BARCELONAA!!! After Lando's Monaco win, Oscar Piastri answered back and that too in pure dominance leaving the whole pack behind and in some ways even his own teammate. He was a man on a mission... came into the weekend dominated qualifying, controlled the race and won without even breaking a sweat, the perfect way to answer back on Lando making inroads to his championship lead. In doing so, he has recorded the largest pole margin of the season which was over 2 tenths, just pure skill. Well for Lando, he just had to play second fiddle. He qualified 2nd and well to make things worse Max overtook him at the start but he overtook Max again a few laps later as the McLaren pace was other worldly... but bottling the start and losing the place to Max cost him time to Oscar which overall secured the win for Oscar as only Lando had the pace in the car to challenge him. Even on the safety car restart Lando was not...

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...
