I'm sure Red Bull are thrilled with the win, but I bet a big part of their management is thinking "what the f*** were we thinking, signing up Sergio for another two years?!" tonight.
Yep, totally agree with that.
Piastri for overtake-defence of the season?
Fair play to Max looks like he did the best out of everyone, think it's safe to assume he'll win the next few races to, given the nature of the tracks.
Hope someone takes the constructor title over the MK moaners as payback. Most commentators believe there's performance clauses so maybe Perez will be gone before the end of the season.

Well, no, I can't resist....but to be fair it was an exceptional race and my driver came out on top of a great 3-way battle. I was genuinely delighted that he won because, in all fairness, my other two favourites (Lando and George) should have beaten him.
We're now on the cusp of a situation where on any given weekend, any of the Top 4 teams can fight for the win. I can honestly say that I have ZERO idea who will win the Spanish GP. That's all I want...proper competition.

I can't see them being beatable in Barcelona though.

Is this like a taboo subject? Do we want to pretend that drivers like Perez aren't buying their seats in the top tier of Motorsport?
Shame only 1 Mclaren on the podium and shame Lando wasn't on the top step but it was great to see Max have to work for it this week.
Key takeaways are that McLaren & Mercedes have clearly both closed the gap to RB significantly. Marc apparently have a new floor coming for Spain as well so Max should have his hands full with Perez apparently no longer helping run defence!

Haas did exactly the right thing at the start by bunging full wets on. Conventional wisdom for racing in mixed conditions is to always be on the right tyre, as you’ll quickly lose more time being on the wrong tyre for the conditions than you would have done with a pit stop. It was just a shame the Haas pit crew undid all of Magnussen’s good work by putting in a pit stop worthy of the Keystone Cops.
All of which makes it even more baffling that Ferrari chose to put Leclerc out onto a wet track on hard slicks, promising him “don’t worry, we’re sure it’ll dry out”. After a few laps slithering around helplessly Charles was back in for proper tyres, what had already been a miserable race now entirely ruined.
Shame for Ricciardo that he jumped the start - quite badly too, also contriving to lose a bunch of places in the process. Salvaged it well with a reasonable result.
The less said about Perez the better. Qualified poorly, failed to make any progress from the back of the field and then spun off. On a weekend where his pressured teammate came through with a win, it’s no way to pay back the confidence of the team in giving him another two years.
I'm pretty sure the cash is handy, but they don't "need" it, if his form stays this shit I'd expect him to be bumped to RB.
