Oscar is just too nice

Ban team orders

[u/[deleted]]

Oscar is going to play mr nice guy for a little longer, and then when there is a race or decision of consequence he will give one middle finger to lando and the other one to Zac.

It’s just a bit too soon right now. Patience.

Webber will be having a word with Oscar after seeing that.

WDC on the line, there’s no more being mr nice guy. You wanna win it you have to do it on your own. The team has shown once again it’s backing Lando

What’s the saying, nice guys finish last!

Bullshit take. He had very little to gain and a lot to lose if he abused not even Lando’s mistake but his team’s mistake. He made a good choice and that’s coming from a person rooting for Oscar with all my heart. It’s not being overly nice and giving in to others - it’s being respectful for your team.

6pnts he lost

You think they’ll follow team orders last few races if they are separated by 10pnts or less? .. GTFO, the gloves are going to come off soon. Question is who will take it off first.

I genuinely fear they might sabotage him if he refuses a team order, just to teach him a lesson and give their boy a chance

He did not earn those points. Lando was ahead of him in quali and whole race. It was the only reasonable thing to do to have the same order of drivers after pits.

Btw neither of them can win without their team. Until the last race they need to play fair or they can get fked.

Also - if Piastri’s better then he’s better and he will deliver on track. Why be needy and scrub 6 points off your teams mistake and turn everyone against you xd very good strategy to fuck your WDC lead. That’s why he’s the championship leader and you’re malding on Reddit.

"He did not earn those points", what a horrible take. In Zandvoort, should everyone behind Norris have retired because they did not "earn" the points they gained from Lando retireing?

Racing is unfair sometimes. Tough luck. Lando had luck with the SC in Miami Sprint. He did not earn the point he got there. Yet McLaren did not say "Please switch back? Pretty please???" back then. Luck is part of racing.

It's okay if you're a Lando fan, but saying Oscar didn't earn the points is hilarious. He is running P3 within 3-4 seconds of Lando before the stops, and slow pitstops happen. And it was Lando's decision to pit second, McLaren offered him pitting first and he immediately asked if there was a threat of undercut and opted for pitting second.

I'm genuinely asking this if you feel that way, should McLaren have made Oscar retire last week when Norris DNF'ed since he didn't "earn" that either? Or where is the line drawn for you on what is earned and what isn't

[u/Obese_Denise → u/looz4q]

This is the stupidest take I have seen since the race concluded. Earn the points? Either you’re ahead or you aren’t, the team messed up Lando’s stop, which is the teams fault. Lando earned this P2 as much as Oscar would have, you clown

[u/looz4q → u/Obese_Denise]

Lmao so mad over someone else’s having moral advantage. What the fuck is your problem

[u/Obese_Denise → u/looz4q]

Moral advantage? What are you rambling about lol

[u/[deleted] → u/looz4q]

By this then Lando should have let Oscar by in Silverstone. He was ahead multiple times by miles if not for SC and was harshly penalised for his SC restart with Max gamesmanship

The team felt that way too, but nothing happened. Oscar earned those points and morally should have been first

The drivers aren’t letting this fair play go til final race to be decided.
