      Lawson finishes 16th. Doohan had a 10 second penalty but he only lost one place to Hadjar.

      Eh? Lawson was well within ten seconds.

      Yeah that’s what I’m really confused about. That’s why I thought Lawson would have finished 15th.

      He did.

      It still says he’s 16th from what I’m seeing. Where are you seeing him in 15th?

      The app and official site has him 15th.

        Oh good shit. 5 places made up, one of them being his rival in Yuki. Not a bad recovery.

        Hopefully he can sort out his qualifying in Japan in a couple weeks and push for some points.

          There was lots of talk before this race about how fast Ferrari were going to be.

          A comfortable race for McLaren in the end. The team to beat this year.

              Trundling around in 15th/16th in a car quick enough to be in the top ten is simply not good enough.
              LL said it himself, he does not have a lot of time.
              Suzuka will decide his fate.

                Are we talking about Sainz now?

                  Where have you been? That car is a dog, Max said as much in interviews this weekend. RB did significant work to LLs chassis apparently prior to the race. That's why he started from pit lane. An admission that they need to give him a better package perhaps? There is something wrong with that car when Lawson can't even catch Hadjar in the junior bulls car, and yet in testing last season Max and Liam were only separated by a tenth, same car same setup same day.

                  Max says the car is slower than McLaren, Ferrari and MB. RB have estimated they will be able to close the gap with McLaren after 3-5 races this season. They are a mess

                    I think they'll cannibalise each other through their competitiveness. Assuming they don't punt each other off the track the team will rack up the points.

                    Questions need to be asked at Ferrari how a car with a damaged end plate is faster than an undamaged one.

                      It's a long season. McLaren have the early advantage, it remains to be seen if the rest can close the gsp

                        Lawson problem looks in the head. After fresh tyres he should have finished 12-13th. He didn’t.

                        I think he will be back in RB either before or after Suzuka.

                        Confident he will stick around in f1, but I don’t think he was ready to be in the top team.

                            It was always going to be a big jump. If he gets swapped out it might be good for his confidence. Hopefully he keeps a seat

                                  Lawson is definitely doing it tough. Suzuka will be a big chance for him, on a track he is very familiar with

                                    The elephant in the room is Russell in the Merc out pointing Hamilton in the Ferrari. Has he blundered in swapping teams or is he simply on the decline?

                                        Ferrari offered Lewis Hamilton £41 million a year to switch. No one else was going to offer a 40 year driver that much. It will be a nice little earner before he retires in three or four years time.
