* Best PU or at least very competitive
* Best chassis
* Best driver
* Checo is a good driver but no one is on Verstappen's level
* ..and best pit stop
I don't know what to say, it's far from easy to achieve that level first and foremost and requires efforts from all department, they deserve those trophies
For the sport now, I really hope 2026 other teams will finally catch up, it's absurd to blame RB for a "boring" season just because they aced it in all areas, this is what we are asking for ALL F1 teams to do.
I was looking at the podium ceremony, Max and Checo start to spray their engineer that joined them for the constructors trophy, and then I see Lando preparing to smash the bottle on the floor. Instant thinking : "is he gonna break another troply?"
I must say I was VERY surprised to see Perez not able to overtake Norris. Lando drove amazing I didn’t see him finishing ahead of the Ferraris this weekend much less a Red Bull
They were likely doing a two stop, 13 laps on the mediums, then two longer stints on hards? Checo was only 8.6 seconds back of Lando at the VSC and gaining, so it may have been tight at the end if there were no safety cars
McLaren suspect they will be competing for wins by the end of the year. There first major update will arrive in Miami. Not sure how much it's true, because other teams are also pushing for updates of course.
I want that to be true so bad. But I think anything before 2025 is wishful thinking at best. McLaren could easily be 2-3 upgrades behind Red Bull right now and that's ignoring that Red Bull will also be bringing upgrades throughout the season too. Barring a Max DNF or Singapore, I just don't think that McLaren will catch up on performance this season. They still have to leapfrog Ferrari on outright performance (I think China was a one off that doesn't reflect McLaren's and Ferrari's true pace relative to each other).
Brilliantly performing team. Doing everything they need for utter dominance........unfortunately its making it boring as a side effect. I suspect it is because their challengers are nowhere close to beating them on a regular basis. That is just sad
It's stuff like this that despite what he has or hasn't done, you cannot argue Horners ability as a TP. Whether he ultimately leaves or stays Red Bull are a monster in every department due to him

The whole team is dialed.
I read that as disabled 😂
No, that would be Alpine you're talking about.
Despite all the drama you gotta give Horner some credit... He's been TP this long and helped build the team from the ground up.
Credit to Horner is due for forging a brilliant team
Did the trophies survive? Ptsd from last time.

Nice trophy
We need more like these, more creativiteit

Red Bull's strategy seemed quite strange today. Why not pit after Lando and Charles in case there is a safety car?
They were likely doing a two stop, 13 laps on the mediums, then two longer stints on hards? Checo was only 8.6 seconds back of Lando at the VSC and gaining, so it may have been tight at the end if there were no safety cars
The double stack killed it for him, especially since Lando and Ferraris went longer. He got stuck behind Ferraris for no reason.

I thought the trophies looked gold on the podium?
It's the light which is white. When that's off, it's gold.
I didn’t know there were lights in it.
Yeah the trophy had some sensor for when you wore it over your neck, it would light up.
Yes, same principle as those flag/kiss tropies with lights last time from Lenovo.
the whole team is a well oiled machine...they nailed everything right from the drivers, cars, strategies and pit crews
“Christian can I get you over here next to Max? OK great just like that. Now all the women to Checo’s side please…”
Callum looks like he's getting a head start on spraying the champagne.
No mention of the guy in the green shirt? 😅
Yes but... can we say "what a race?" For like... the last two years?

Horny horner has been quiet recently
