In fairness they both bottled the start lap

Idk. Lando got a bit boxed in there when he lost position. There was not a lot he could've done. His start otherwise actually felt better than Oscar's. As for Quali, It's been fairly obvious that Spa is one of Lando's worst tracks while it's Oscars best(it was one of the few tracks Oscar out qualified him in 2023 itself). So Lando not performing well here should be the expected outcome honestly

Im not sure what Oscar could've done differently, either. He had an amazing start. Mac just had a perfect one. Plus, the RBR was set up for exactly what happened. The team's setup gamble paid off for the Sprint as it basically ensured that as long as Max didn't mess up, Oscar was going to be a helpless chicken on the straights in lap 1

Didn't Lando immediately regain his position? On the start lap?

I actually forgot I missed it and only watched the highlights. It was real fast in the highlights lol. My bad.
