Has Oscar Piastri ever looked this helpless?

F1 World Champion team McLaren hasn't looked this helpless for a while, isn't it? Max Verstappen's resurgence with Red Bull Racing is making minced meat of the papaya cars! Or is it only Oscar Piastri who struggled in the 2025 USA GP? Lando Norris took his time, but managed to finally overcome the challenge of Charles Leclerc to claim the second step on the podium. Williams Racing drivers were clumsy, while Pirelli's attempts to induce a two-stopping race didn't yield. The heat & wind played its part, but weren't the reasons why the 2025 USA GP was borderline boring, even though Max Verstappen ate a large part of the gap between him and a possible fifth F1 world title.

Can Ferrari win a race this year? Worse, will McLaren win again in 2025? And if you were the Team Principal of McLaren would you favour one driver over the other?
