Yup, and the commentators got horribly confused. Congratulations to Bortoletto on the F2 title.

What a way to settle a championship rofl

I assume he's still F1 bound, he'll be ok.

A wonderfully chaotic last race of the season for the young ladies of the Academy. 14 cars covered by about six seconds at one point.
It was entertaining, but some of the driving standards were questionable (at best).

He's still in the race, a safety car away from joining the back of the pack. I'm not switching off yet!

Someone as odious as Hadjar, it's not over until it's over.

I'm surprised he's allowed to restart having had outside assistance. Probably some safety rule kicking in. His radio message was gold.

It's easy to be critical of the F1commentary team but these pair miss everything.

I know he’s a RedBull reserve driver but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s F1 bound unless I’ve missed something

I didn't want Hadgar to win but it's a sad way to finish it

I just assume he's done enough this season, especially taking into account they have a driver shortage across both teams.

The fact he's a bit of an arse will help him fit in.

Imagine the fun that would be Hadjar and Verstappen as team mates at Red Bull!

Verschoor getting his elbows out on the last lap, and getting himself on the podium as a result.

What an amazing F2 season, with 19 different race winners in 2024!

That new Monza-esque podium looks fantastic, as does the massive lounge they now have as the cool-down room.

Hope they let the crowd on the track at the end of the F1 race!

Based on him opening his big gob when he shouldn't, he'll be in the RB next year. I look forward to the whining, not.
