Lots of times drivers have binned it in front of home crowds.
Maybe got a little too overzealous with the home fans pushing them on!

I missed the race, need to find the highlights at least. I did see the results. Yeah... foreshadowing or something. Go get a lottery ticket, quick.

Haha I am watching it soon, watched the freedom 250 Indy race first.

That was a surprisingly good race, started a little slow but developed into an action filled great event.
The flyovers were amazing but the eagle stole the show!

I’m guessing it didn’t go as planned for Max, I’ll find out soon.

 

[26StratMT]

Well I didn’t need to get far in to find out.
Binned on lap 2 and shredded the car pretty good, glad he was ok.
A shame for the fans, especially since it’s the last race there.

Pretty sure Bortoletto will need a pants change during the red flag lol.
Incredible Hulkenberg didn’t T-bone him.
The replays are nuts!

Good race overall, well done by Lando and nice to see Alonso get a few points.
Hopefully Kimi doesn’t suffer a similar fate to Max in 2 weeks at his home race lol.

Looking forward to Monza, should be interesting to see how they manage there in these cars.

I thought both th F1 race and the IndyCar race were were pretty entertaining. I hate to admit it, but I did feel a bit sorry for Max.

So, next year does Mercedes make George the Number 1 driver based on seniority or do they make Kimi number 1 based on ability... especially if he wins the Drivers Championship?

Are we ready for Monza? I think this may be a Mercedes one two finish.

And CONGRATULATIONS to Alex Palou on his 5th IndyCar Championship in the last 6 years!

#0 minutes later: I just remembered, Kimi starts from the back of the grid this week. Oops! Maybe not a Mercedes one two after all!

As much as that sucks for Kimi it somewhat takes the pressure of the home race away.
I suspect he will still do well in spite of the rear start.
Will be fun watching him work his way through the pack.

I think the pressure of home race went away on his first outing in an F1 car 2 yrs ago, crashing in his first practice

That was brutal!

Lewis Hamilton found an F40.
Pretty cool, apparently the original buyer drove it home from the factory, less than 50 miles.
Parked it in the garage and never drove it again.
Ferrari restored it and apparently found the block number was 44, what are the odds of that lol.
He drove it to the paddock at Monza this weekend.
Always loved the look of that car when I was a kid.
