Race starts

Everyone: another boring Merc 1-2
Verstappen: hold my grandma

[makingmiracleshappen]

cant tell if sainz is just having bad luck or just preparing himself for a season at ferrari next year

[glimmr]

Stroll's engineer: "use the energy"
Stroll: "I'm pressing overtake but nothing happens"
Stroll's dad: "I got you homie"
*Hulkenberg pits*

[aki]

Crew: you have to back off
Verstappen: nope. I feel the vtec kicking in.

[GamersName]

if the heat is the problem for mercs, i want all remaining races in middle of sahara

[vineroli]

Hulk: doesnt get a podium

*reality is often disappointing*

[Bup]

The fact that Verstappen has more points than one of the Mercedes cars when his car is almost a whole second slower is unreal

[peterp.peterson]

Watching Max battles the Mercedes in Silverstone after 2021 just sends chills down my back

[bababooey]

Albon in quali: I am snail
Albon in race: I am speed

[arthurteo]

The Hulk's Report Card:
Hasn't driven an F1 car almost a year with very little prep time, qualified third and finishes in the points, stayed ahead of team mate until "tire issues" pitted him: I say pretty good showing for the Hulk.

Max really is the only one who can put up a fight to Mercedes at the moment.

[GloomGaiGar]

IN THIS RACE:

- A Dutchman calls his grandmother a slow driver.
- A Fiat Panda finishes 4th.
- Some guys forget to stop racing after 70 years.

[cringelord]

The determination Verstappen has is unbelievable, he never backed off even when his team was telling him to, well deserved win.

[marcozambelli]

I don't think Carlos engineers made a mistake during the pit stop, they just wanted to prepare him for next year😂😂

[legaliciousM]

We need to start realizing how lucky we are to be witnessing Verstappen.

[alexm.s]

Didnt think anyone could beat mercedes this year, let alone on sheer pace! Hats off max.
But seriously how did he keep his tyres together for that long? No blistering whatsoever after 30 laps or so?! Mercs had shredded the tyre after about 7 laps. Insane

[lexro]

I'm starting to think albon just enjoys the thrill of overtaking so he botches quali on purpose lol

[artursruseckis]

All those Albon's overtakes on the outside... he's lucky there was no Lewis there...

[imda]

Watching Max evolve is like watching a champion in the making. Can't wait for him to finally be in a car capable of racing for the Title

[sergioferrero]

Basically, what we are witnessing is a 22-year-old driver single handling not one, but two of the best drivers (a then six-time champion and a somewhat irregular but capable squire) who were driving the fastest F1 ever created, but people keep calling him overrated, not a real champion...
