Although that’s not the word that came to mind…
What can I say about the utter domination of
two drivers this past weekend, Eh?
As IndyCar Radio’s Mike Gravelly’ James kept
saying the word domination when describing Alex Palou’s performance at thee
Barbers’. As I’d say that Palou took the Barber shears to His competition!
Leading a Mega’ 81 of 90 laps at Barber Motorsports Park in Leeds, Alabama
Sunday.
As I simply marveled over Palou’s domination,
cruising home to a 16-plus seconds lead, for which all I could say was the word
Annihilation!
And if you thought the IndyCar race was boring,
well, I fell asleep just past the halfway point of the Miami Grand Prix!
Although the first 13 laps were certainly exciting! And how can you not
appreciate Verstappen’s tenacity, Eh!
But as Sky Sports F1 lead pundit Kroftie’, aka
David Kroft said later on. The two McLarens were in another Post code Sunday at
the Hard Rock Stadium! And Oscar Piastri’s winning by 36+ seconds over Mercedes
third place George Russell was total Annihilation!
As I’d thought that Palou had put a Beatdown on
the IndyCar field, which He did! Now leading the championship by 60 points over
unlikely second place Christian Lundgaard. But what does Piastri’s tour de
force say about Formula 1? Claiming McLaren’s first three-peat by a driver
since Mika Hakkinen during 1997-98, Crikeys!
Ironically, I heard ScottyMac’, aka Scott
McLaughlin musing sometime over the weekend about Clean Air, as there’s those
words again…
While you’d have to give Lewis Hamilton an A+
for sarcasm during the Miami Grand Prix. First telling His Ferrari team to have
a Tea break while they’re at it! Regarding swapping positions with teammate
Charles Leclerc.
And then when told to let Leclerc back by and having to wait for Him to overtake. When Lewis’s race engineer told Him that Williams Carlos Sainz was 1.4 seconds behind. Hamilton quipped do you want me to let Him by too?
