Russell is shook. He expected to be leading the field at this point in the season and if he don’t get it together he could get left by a lot of drivers.
Leclerc crashing renders this moot, but having him pit immediately behind Hamilton while Hamilton is serving his 5s penalty was diabolical. I understand preserving team dynamics, but that felt like favoring Hamilton so he could keep a position he would have lost.
I don't like Russell, so seeing him struggling is entertaining to me, especially since some seem very self inflicted. It's clear Mercedes have the best car, but also Kimi is the better driver.
After qualifying, I thought it was going to be the start of Max making a title push again. The Red Bull car does seem to be coming together, and Hadjar being able to get 3rd is at least somewhat of proof of that. But I really wished we could have seen how that race would have turned out with Max in it the whole time.

Yeah has to be a gut punch for George to realize he's not the "man" on that team anymore.
Yuki complains to much over the radio
Hadjar: hold my beer
Honestly Monoco sucks as a race. I get why they run it because it’s legendary and there is a crap tin of money. However, the only way the race gets good is if a bunch of wrecks happen. Otherwise qualifying is the key. Also, does Red Bull have real speed again or was it just this track. Would love to see what kimi does if Max starts doing Max stuff and gaining on him

Kimi has been super impressive but just like Oscar last year he is going to have a run of races where he’s looking lost. Last year it started in European stint for him.
