In old days, the orange army keyboard warrior platoon would've posted that perez went off so that max could keep pole. :lol:

more fun part, guessing how ferrari will mess up. p2 & p3 should translate to solid point position but probability so far shown that they will start with hard tire, put on medium early, then realize hard is better, and finally, trying to get FL with soft on last lap and loses more points. :D Sainz will come out better than Leclerc because he refused the their strategy.

Two flares thrown on track. Max fans so Iā€™m not surprised they donā€™t have a brain.
Guess you didn't watch Silverstone šŸ¤” they didn't just throw flares, they ran on track šŸ¤£

Sit down before you hurt yourself.

Mercedes just does not learn. Lost the race today like they lost the Championship. By not pitting Lewis. And then they made it even easier by removing Russell :rofl:

I think that you'd need to be able to see the future to have made the correct call in Abu Dhabi.

Lewis's restart today was a bit shitty, but how long could he have held that lead anyway with that car and those tires.

Funny race though - air guns being run over, the AT pit\seatbelt issue, I think we had some pitlane speeding too.

I don't understand why Lewis went so early. He doesn't have to go full speed until the starting line. He could've waited till then, not giving Max any tow for at least a lap.

I assume AT just didn't believe their driver when he said the car felt off. He'd prolly loosened his belt before they told him to continue and then he drove with a loose belt which is likely a HUGE regs no no.

AT just seems to be really off, If Gasly goes to Alpine that should be a good move for him.

Take the tinfoil hat off lol! Red Bull doesn't need AT to win races. I know Mercedes like to blame others for their mistakes, failed to pit Hamilton in Abu Dhabi, blame Masi. Failed to pit Hamilton in Zandvoort, blame Tsunoda. Yet it was Mercedes driver Bottas that triggered it all lol.
Tsunoda pitted, they thought they fixed it, went out, still broken, pulled over. It's not rocket science.

Unless you're a strategist for Ferrari or Mercedes, then it is. :rofl:

a conspiracy theory...



Those pigeons on the tracks were controlled by Dutch Government so that max will win the race. These pigeons are as same type that US government uses to monitor people. As you know, birds aren't real any more. for reference see this article on wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds_Aren't_Real . it was not captured on video but they failed to slip one of the bird into yuki's intake and hit his left tire causing yuki to think that tire was not mounted properly which only resulted in VSC and retirement of Yuki. So they had to use same tactic on Valtteri who is Lewis' old team mate (who else can be better victim?) with success that closed all the gap Lewis & George had build with FCY. and the rest is history.. Also, they couldn't do that to Lewis or George because cameras were on them so they had to victimize driver that not many cared.


credible? :D
