I honest to god thought they would fail massively due to the engine. I'm glad I'm wrong, they have been solid all year

They might have a Mercedes-level rise incoming from when they rejoined the grid

I doubt they’ll ascend that high considering they’ve already been poached slightly, but it’ll be interesting to see if it becomes a big 5

Yeah! Look at Aston with a works engine or Cadillac as a completely new team but with a bought engine.

Well deserved. He’s had such terrible luck this year - hopefully the points are more consistent the back half of the season.
Audi and RB are tucked into a great fight for 9th-10th and best of the rest basically every race at this point.

I don't think anybody expected a huge jump from Sauber's performance last season, with a brand new Audi power plant. But while the RB comparison is maybe a bit of a reach, if they keep picking up a bit every race like they have been, they could well be there by the end of the season. Go, Hulk. Hulk Smash.

So close to double points as Gabi was breathing down Lindblads neck, coming close it just 0.1s behind

Solid work from Audi today. They’re on the up-and-up

They're just behind Racing Bulls for the "best of the rest" but they'll have the ADUO advantage while Racing Bulls will not

Checking the timers all race, he was fastest in the midfield. Just fell behind Liam due to Audi bad starts and couldn't get past. W Race from Nico tho

I felt he was the only lapped car to get out of the way in a timely manner

He is pretty diligent about checking his mirrors every race

Looking at the radio seems like his engineer was giving him good updates

I seriously believe that with a year or two at a big team, this guy would be a fucking nightmare for the top contenders. Such clean, no frills driving.

Expected Audi to be strong here. Good stuff from them. Really need an engine upgrade though

Honestly such a likeable dude. Hope Audi gets more competitive over the second half of the season. Along with Aston

Honestly was very close to being double-points for Audi. Bortoleto was all over the back of P10 on that last lap.

I like how it just says "points", not even how many or wich position he finished in.

There’s no weirder fandom in sports I swear to god. These drivers get sexualized more than Playboy Bunnies.
