My Instant Reaction To The 2024 VCARB F1 Car

McLaren might have just handed Max Verstappen the psychological edge he needed to take another world title.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn a stunning twist ahead of the Brazil GP, McLaren CEO Zak Brown’s comments around 2007 and comparing it to Max Verstappen's tear in the title sent shockwaves through the paddock. What was meant as a message of unity between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri has instead comes off as McLaren conceding defeat before the fight is over.Clearly, this message has not landed the way it was intended to. Sure, the bosses of the McLaren F1 team is thinking about its team, but the 'external noise' is sounding off as the team's take on Max's surge has become a little muddied.Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAff#f1 #landonorris #formula1 #f12025 #maxverstappen #oscarpiastri #mclaren #mclarenf1team #redbullracing #redbullf1 #f1news #f1latest #formula12025 #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #papayarules #f1drama #saopaulogp McLaren Just Gifted Max Verstappen the Upper Handhttps://youtu.be/dRNci8ZJbDkCan't watch the ladder?

Despite losing the lead of the title, Oscar Piastri found a new gear as Lando Norris dominated.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsA single front suspension choice after Canada set Lando Norris up for qualifying dominance while Oscar Piastri arguably drifted out of the sweet spot. With Andrea Stella's support, Piastri's Mexico race was saved from abject disaster. What happened? Let's talk about it!There’s bigger context too. Stella’s public framing of his drivers suggests different superpowers that could shape the team’s development path into 2026.#f1 #landonorris #formula1 #f12025 #maxverstappen #oscarpiastri #andretti #mclaren #mclarenf1team #redbullracing #redbullf1 #f1news #f1latest #formula12025 #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #papayarules #f1drama Oscar Piastri Finds His McLaren Mojo Againhttps://youtu.be/6b6wbhh7ktsGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsIn other news, Williams returns to its classic identity with the "Forward W", a clean signal of heritage with intent for 2026. Also, the Felipe Massa legal pause and uncertainty with Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari means that red-coloured teams are not having a good time.

Alpine F1 is on the brink of a move that could reset its future.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsAlpine’s celebrity-backed investor Otro Capital is in early talks to offload its 24 percent stake bought in 2023 for about $218m. Now? A profit is to be had; and if Renault reclaims the shares it tightens control right before the 2026 rules shift. As a result, could this be a sign that Renault has accepted its failure with Alpine and is about to begin anew on its own...or is this the next step for Christian Horner to move from Red Bull to Alpine...and good news for Franco Colapinto against Pierre Gasly?#f1 #alpinef1 #formula1 #formulone #alpinef1team #redbullracing #christianhorner #francocolapinto #pierregasly #f1news #f1latest #f1drama #f1updates #f12026 #alpine #renault Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

The championship has a new leader...and it's its first one.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsLando Norris absolutely nailed this race weekend at a time when Oscar Piastri fumbled and lost his lead by just a single point. Charles Leclerc barely hung on to yet another podium whilst Max Verstappen was denied by a wild call regarding Carlos Sainz narrowly missing out escaping the track and causing a Virtual Safety Car. On top of that, Oliver Bearman gave his team Haas their equal best-ever result of P4 and brought them right back into play for sixth in the constructors.Who else won, lost or was just plain meh around the 2025 Mexico City Grand Prix?Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff #f1 #mexicogp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #mexicograndprix #f1predictions #predictions #maxverstappen #redbullracing #mclaren #landonorris #redbull #f12025 #formula12025 #verstappen #norris #charlesleclerc #ferrari #carlossainz #oliverbearmanCan't watch the ladder?

Two drivers, one rule and a reset that HOPEFULLY makes things simple.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren’s Singapore flashpoint rolled into Austin and then into Mexico as Oscar Piastri accepted a "degree of responsibility" for his part in the Sprint crash with Lando Norris. But there's plenty of PR wizardry here to show how a quiet procedural edge for Oscar Piastri likely vanished and Lando Norris should be relieved. Have McLaren been able to masterfully negate the looming Max Verstappen by accepting his presence...or will it end up in another battle between their two drivers?Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff #f1 #landonorris #formula1 #f12025 #maxverstappen #oscarpiastri #andretti #mclaren #mclarenf1team #redbullracing #redbullf1 #f1news #f1latest #formula12025 #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #papayarules #f1drama McLaren Takes Back Oscar Piastri’s Toyhttps://youtu.be/ZFlXgU38EmYCan't watch the ladder?

Red Bull is pressing pause on its 2026 driver call.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffMax Verstappen’s resurgence has shifted priorities, which means Helmut Marko’s once imminent meeting has cooled while the team chases points for both squads. That puts Yuki Tsunoda’s steady climb under a brighter light with Lawson and Hadjar still very much in frame. Corporate Austria has more say since the Horner saga and Mateschitz’s passing, which could mean Helmut has less say. The result is a slower, more calculated Red Bull machine that wants data before ink.Who knows? Perhaps Ford might have some use for him.Yuki Tsunoda Earns His Shot at Red Bull Redemptionhttps://youtu.be/cIqPXF0dSRM#f1 #maxverstappen #formula1 #formulaone #liamlawson #yukitsunoda #isackhadjar #christianhorner #mclarenf1 #redbullracing #helmutmarko #tsunoda #verstappen #f1news #f1latest #f12025 #f1updates #f1drivers #f1drama #usgp #mexicogp #mexicangp Can't watch the ladder?

Red Bull may have cracked it grip-wise...and McLaren aren't doing a thing about it. Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsRed Bull’s RB21 has gone from a pity case to a true contender, or even the fastest car on the grid right now. The clues and experts point to a smarter way of running the car lower without incurring the wrath of the FIA. As a result, Max Verstappen has cut Oscar Piastri’s lead by two thirds and outscored both McLaren drivers since August. Under Laurent Mekies the team has gone rather quiet and rival voices like Andrea Stella aren't crying foul!What does this mean for 2026? Is this bad for the RB successor? Yes and no.
