Teams with 0 or even points go on highest finishing position during the season. If Williams best position was 12th and HAAS 13th, Williams will be ranked 9th, and HAAS 10th. Now if HAAS finishes a car 11th, they'll be 9th in the constructors standings.
would this help him this weekend? better question, Will Lewis beat Max?
Lewis will not beat Max. In equal cars Max is faster. If the last 8 years have proven anything, Lewis needs a car faster than his competitors and a doormat teammate. Russell proved in Bahrain last year how easy it is to win in that car (until they conveniently mounted the wrong tires and screwed his race up)This week's prediction challenge!
Lewis is actually on simulator! He hasn't been on simulator for awhile, I heard. some also said only 20 hours a year he spends on it. I assume he is on simulator because he wants to improve his standing.
my prediction, yes! Lewis will beat Max although not sure if simulator helped him.
Max will beat Lewis again.This week's prediction challenge!

Bottas v Perez will be interesting. Both have a point to prove. Bottas qualified ahead of Lewis last race, so he'll want to do that again, and Perez obviously wants a podium.
For sure. Norris is definitely a fantastic driver. He is consistent and performs well. It will be exciting watching his career progress. I would be surprised if he doesn't win a world championship at some point in the future.
No. The W12 is slower in all respects to the RB16B this year. Pretty much doesn't matter what Lewis does, as the Red Bull is still 0.2-0.4 faster per lap, all over the course, on all tires. With focus effectively shifted to 2022 (as it should be), both drivers' and constructors' championships are over at this point. I think there will be fun mid-field battles and the occasional shock result due to mechanical DNF or weather, so it's still worth watching but the rest of this season will be like the second half of 2013. The RB16B will probably be remembered as one of the most dominant cars over one season.This week's prediction challenge!

Go watch France again. The Mercedes was the faster car. At one point during the race Max had BOTH Mercedes cars within 1.5 seconds behind him. If the RBR was faster, he'd have just cruised away like Hamilton's been doing for 7 years.
Yea, I'm with you. I think Max and Lewis are the class of the field (though there are 3-4 others who are themselves a cut above the rest). I respect and admire both of them in a genuine way. I think they are both generational talents in terms of raw talent, car setup, and racecraft. I think would be pretty evenly matched if they were in the same car, but that's not the nature of Formula 1. Nobody can say with any certainty who would prevail. I don't know why it's so difficult for other people to just admit that.
Lol you guys should stop drinking the Wolff kool-aid and apply some logic.Yea, I'm with you.

That said, I do think the RB16B still has 0.2 seconds or so over the W12. The Honda motor has made a step and the RB16B's aerodynamic performance/efficiency has made a step. Without some kind of W12 upgrade or revelation on setup, I think Max and the RB16B has to be the favorite going into any race at this point.
Max stans are a weird bunchSo what you are saying is, last win from Max wasn't necessarily Max was fast but car was fast..?! And you will admit Hamilton IS fast IF Hamilton beats Max this weekend since he has inferior car?
Thanks for proving my earlier point...So what you are saying is, last win from Max wasn't necessarily Max was fast but car was fast..?! And you will admit Hamilton IS fast IF Hamilton beats Max this weekend since he has inferior car?
