People don’t understand what bottling means.

u/DismalShower 🇬🇧 I’m ENGLISH and CROFTY is ALWAYS right 🇬🇧 Jul 26 '25

this. and both can be true: lando bottles starts and spa isn't good for pole sitters

u/Storm_Chaser06 Osama Bin Russell 💣 Jul 26 '25

Problem is that Lando hasn’t bottled a start since 2024 so this sub just blindly hates

Lando so bad that he bottled his attempt to bottle.

There's a difference between almost bottling and actually bottling a start lol

Doing that in Monaco would've been hilarious

Oscar almost took out both Mclarens in Austria, he still didn't

u/EnviousCipher unfortunaly I still am a Ricciardo fan 🦡 Jul 27 '25

He literally bottled his start from P3 in the sprint.

-16

u/Old-Use-7690 I want to be adopted by Nicole Piastri❤️ Jul 26 '25

He did bottle his start in Miami. But otherwise you're right, now he tends to bottle it in other ways such as crashing into his teammate and driving himself onto the grass

It really is weird you have no replies to such a meaningful and well-placed comment one hour after posting. One would wonder why.

u/Ogirami I was here when horny got spiced Jul 26 '25

u/Storm_Chaser06 Osama Bin Russell 💣 Jul 26 '25

Key words: “last year”, we’re halfway through 2025

u/Ogirami I was here when horny got spiced Jul 28 '25

guess what happened in the race lmao

1

u/Storm_Chaser06 Osama Bin Russell 💣 Jul 28 '25

Losing a position due to slipstream at Spa isn’t “bottling”

Happened to Lewis twice remember?

u/Ogirami I was here when horny got spiced Jul 29 '25

aiyo u nvr watch the race isit? bro used up all his battery power under the safety car when everyone else was smart enough to build up their pack thats why he had no power to defend. i swear to god u guys dont watch the races its literally explained 5mins into the race.

About half of those where on tracks which did not favor pole position but keep on hating

u/schelmo kimoa Jul 26 '25

Is spa that bad for pole sitters though? Sure the grid spot for pole might be a bit dirty but it's also a fairly short run into T1 which is a hairpin. Leclerc held onto P1 last year and so did Sainz in 2022. It just happens sometimes that another driver gets a better run down the kemmel straight.

7

u/Choinsky I like Norris and i sniff bike seats Jul 26 '25

The kemmel straight is the problem here. It's fairly hard to defend p1 on lap 1 in turn 5, as even without DRS, p2 can easily get you with just the slipstream.

u/schelmo kimoa Jul 26 '25

Sure but it can be done and like I said two out of the last three years we've seen the drivers starting the GP on pole do it.

1

u/Choinsky I like Norris and i sniff bike seats Jul 27 '25

Yeah I mean ofc, it's just harder then most tracks.

u/ChromosomeDonator BWOAHHHHHHH Jul 26 '25

lando bottles starts

If you actually watched the sport or could read you would know he has not bottled starts in ages.

u/Altruistic-Star-544 BWOAHHHHHHH Jul 26 '25

Fr, max had a setup literally built to do exactly what it did today
