I can say Verstappen would have a good saying for this 'if' scenario ;)

Honestly I think the gap to red bull wil close up and I believe Lando is going to be the one that can challenge Max

Don't think he would have gotten him even with a lap or two more. Imola is pretty hard to overtake on, and Lando wasn't catching Max as fast as he would have needed.

As a Norris fan, I believe he wouldn't have won even with 2 more laps. Red Bull had better straight line speed, Imola is a tough track to overtake on, and Norris had older tyres. DRS would've got him closer to Max, but not enough to get past. Only way Lando would win is if Max made a mistake.

ĪĪæ. If the race was 2 laps longer the strategy would have been adapted to that as well. So it's just a moot argument. The race is 300km plus 1lap. That's it.

Redbull gonna pull out all the upgrades they had stalling waiting for everyone to catch up and continue to dominate

Lando will win if he gets ahead on strategy, catching Max is one thing, passing him is eternally more difficult.

With an additional 1-2 laps, yes, I think Lando could've beaten Max for P1

I think Lando could be WC once Max's dominance ends.

He would have needed at least 2 more laps. 1 Extra lap would not have been enough since he was 0.7s behind Max when crossing the finish line. DRS was worth 0.4-0.5s on the straight. Maybe he would have had a chance the next lap, but like the saying goes "Catching is one thing, overtaking is something else."

Imola is hard to overtake at, pace difference wasnāt big enough for Lando to make an easy overtake. Sooo yeah nah, Max wouldāve put his elbows out, and still win.

Iām not liking Oscarās constant shit luck. He was a candidate for the win on pace, both here and in Miami. And somehow itās always either Kevin or Carlos or Lewis that manage to wreck his raceā¦ I think Ferrari pulled a blinder with the pit stop bluff to get the tyre advantage on him in stint 2, so big kudos there. šš» As long as his misfortune isnāt an actual curse, Iām sure Oscarās first (Grand Prix) win is coming before the summer. š¤š¼ Massive kudos to Max and Lando both for a pulse raiser of a climax. š¤Æ I think Oscar might have the momentum to eclipse Lando still, but the cheeky monkey is definitely rising to the challenge. š Are Saturdays starting to lean Piastriās way t

Lando nearly did it!! š„µ
With one or two more laps, could he have pulled it off? š
