Meh, having them break records almost every race weekend to finish the second half of the season gets rather old, it'd also be so much more entertaining if it wasn't so clearly effortless for them (obviously this is just appearance and not reality as a crazy amount of work is done every race to...
You realize the only reason it didn't "feel" harsh enough was due to the last safety car and allowing Max a cheap tire change before bunching everyone back up before the restart. Had that not happened, that 5 second penalty served in the first pit stop would likely have been the reason why Max...
Best race of the year? Not even in the top 8 for me. It could have been a bit better had they done this race earlier in the season, maybe before Mexico, and been warmer so that they weren't tiptoeing around so much. Of the US GP's, I'd probably rank this one 2nd out of 3, Miami being the...
By no means do I think it's just the car, or just the driver. People give so much credit to both, but the reality is it's a MASSIVE team sport. You need all the support and planning from the team to even get the cars to the race and in one piece. So many moving pieces and so many things that...
The thing is, that rule has been kind of adhered to for this season, so I don't blame the FIA or Max for it. I do blame them for taking so god damn long to enforce it. You are telling me that the 3+ laps behind the safety car wasn't long enough to review that? He should have given that spot...
I agree, but my goodness Max got another horse shoe up his a$$. Had that last safety car not happened he wouldn't have won that race, I'm sure that he could not have made up that time with Charles ahead, on fresher tires. The safety car not only allowed him to get new tires, but it brought...
Not only should they not be penalized but the cost of these new parts should be exempt from the cost cap as this was an error due to FIA and track incompetence.
Have you seen Vegas in the daylight? There is a reason it’s at night, Vegas is a night city and F1 loves a scenic setting for their races.
I don’t know why this GP wasn’t just before or after Texas race, then down to Mexico, and finishing off in Brazil. Maybe they didn’t want two races on...
I know that you are new to this sport and really only have some shows and the past two seasons to base that statement off of but if you watched that entire 2021 season and then watched the past two seasons the MAJOR difference in Max’s driving is two fold, typically he rarely was threaten by...
Intent? Are we really going to argue that Max intended to end up on top of Lewis or that Lewis intended to cause that big crash at Silverstone? Their intent was to pass or stay ahead of the other driver and were both doing sketchy on the edge stuff to do so. Neither of them intended for the...
I consider Max ending up on top of Lewis at Monza as “pay back” for that move at Silverstone. Let’s be honest, that season both drivers were driving like asshole with each other, it would be hard to keep track of it to determine who was “ahead” on that score by the time that incident happened...
I don’t blame RB or Max for what happened in 2021, they only played the hand they were dealt. But we were all ROBBED of a fitting ending to that season. In my mind Lewis has won 8 championships and Max only two so far. What happened in Abu Dhabi was no one’s fault other than the race...
Pretty much every driver and every team have stated almost all year that RB and Max will be very hard to beat for the next two years, that’s not news, and it’s also not a shock. With the regulations not changing for another two years it will take a stroke of genius by the engineers.
RB and...
Well he may have been distracted due to Alonso’s car (not Alonso’s fault) for a split second causing him to have a little moment. That being said Alonso could have given a little more room and maybe they wouldn’t have collided. Not saying he was blocking, just saying he did have more space to...
Could someone remove the horseshoe from Max’s butt. Had the weather held off I don’t think he would have had pole. Obviously this was good planning by RB by getting him out first and some luck with only having time for one real decent lap before conditions really changed.
Things that make you...
I don't see Max not winning the Championship next season, but I think it'll likely be similar to the 2022 season where he is at least challenged a bit more. What team do I think will be there, probably either Merc or McLaren, but I wouldn't be shocked if Ferrari does better also next season.
I...
"Natural talent"....? What would that even mean? No this is mostly due to hard work, opportunity, coaching, and a general desire from Max to be the best. Does his dad deserve a lot of credit, of course, without his guidance, direction, connections, and money he would not be where he is today...
I feel like the more that you comment on Max and RB, the more you have been watching the last two seasons, the more you seem to be blindly favouring those people. You aren’t at the point where you don’t criticize them, but you seem to be going that direction.
I myself am not a big fan of Max...
To my eyes the worst drivers are/were Nyck de Vries, Logan Sargent, Lance Stroll, Kevin Mag. I don't have Checo in the worst group.
I don't know how long Checo will be staying with RB, his contract is good for next season but if the top teams are challenging RB next season they'll have to...
