It was a tale of two McLaren’s at the Bahrain Grand Prix. On the one hand, Oscar Piastri checked off another huge box in his title winning aspirations as he took a dominant pole and win combo to reduce his Championship arrears to just three points. On the other, a clumsy race for Lando Norris that had him blow qualifying, start on the front row, miss his pit box, and get beaten by George Russell, whos car was having somewhat of a short circuit. As you do.
Dre and RJ review a hectic Bahrain GP, that also included a crisis meeting for the Red Bulls as Max Verstappen could only manage sixth in a car that was almost a second a lap off the pace. The shock of Pierre Gasly finishijng seventh in an Alpine that’s been nowhere all season, why Dre thinks George Russell is the best driver in the sport right now, and a chat about why the V10’s are seemingly dead in the water now Honda, Audi and Mercedes put their foot down over a potential abandoning of the new hybrids.
All that and more in a new Motorsport101!
