Hungary🇭🇺 debrief McLaren & Mercedes edition 🏎️

Lando (2nd in the standings) :

Qualifying: Pole
Grand Prix: 2 (18 points)
Positions: -1

Oscar (5th in the standings):

Qualifying: 2nd
Grand Prix: 1 (25 points)
Positions: +1

Mclaren did well to finish 1st and 2nd. Oscar deserved his first win, he did so well the entire race despite Lando making it difficult by not following team orders right away and being difficult. Although that being said McLaren should have pitted Oscar first to avoid this entire situation because there was no need to pull a stunt like that. Lando needs to learn to be a team player because countless times Oscar has let him through on team orders and the attitude he showed should not be tolerated. Overall the team need to do better to manage both drivers because something like this cannot happen again.

Lewis (6th in the standings):

Qualifying : 5th
Grand Prix: 3rd (15 points)
Positions: +2

George (8th in the standings) :

Qualifying: 17th
Grand Prix: 8th (4 points +1 for fastest lap)
Positions: +7

Mercedes did well to help George recover from his shocking qualifying session to finish 8th and score valuable points. Lewis did well to charge up the field and score his 200th career podium and add to the consistent good run of form that Mercedes have had. However, the team’s strategy when it comes to pit timing needs to be looked at because Lewis was just about holding off Max even though he was struggling on his tyres.
