What a season
He can always take an extra pit stop or two and lewis will have to lap him if he's that intent on harpooning himI do. Else I can see Max torpedoing Lewis á la Schumacher
Doesn't work like that, he would be getting too close to MazepinHe can always take an extra pit stop or two and lewis will have to lap him if he's that intent on harpooning him
I amYeah didn’t realise you edited it … relax bro.
And I wouldn't put that passed Horner.He can always take an extra pit stop or two and lewis will have to lap him if he's that intent on harpooning him
Believe they initially concluded no investigation necessary and told the media but have changed their mind and summoned Max since. Wonder if Mercedes got in touch with Michael Masi to ask what the feck?What’s the point of a meeting if it’s already decided that he won’t be punished? Could the FIA be any more transparent?
Schumacher got thrown out of the while championship in 97 when he went after villneuveAnd I wouldn't put that passed Horner.
But even the FIA would struggle to not ban him with that premeditation. At least Schumacher could hide behind "ooops" even though we could all see it
Well, for all the talk on here during the last month about how the season was over for Mercedes and Lewis, as things stand today it's actually Red Bull and Verstappen who look to be in trouble.
Of course there's still all to race for and literally anything can happen in the last three races. But I just saw Verstappen's post qualifying interview and he knows it's just not looking great right now. First time this season where I feel you could clearly see he's lost that real belief. Will be really interesting to see how he deals with that tomorrow, but yeah, it's not great for your morale knowing you can have an impeccable race, perform at 105% and still normally finish second at best.

Stewards have proven they're incompetent recently but surely not that incompetent and stupid.What are the odds of Bottas and Sainz getting penalized while Max gets away with a warning/fine?
I mean Seb going it for it.

Anything is possible with the clowns in charge at the moment.What are the odds of Bottas and Sainz getting penalised while Max gets away with a warning/fine?
Apparently not

More likely going to make lewis race with three wheels and blindfolded as punishment for the helmet
I say zero chance , its either all with pens or none.What are the odds of Bottas and Sainz getting penalised while Max gets away with a warning/fine?
Good shout, give the all a warnings and points on their super license, they have been punished and dont alter the grid.I bet they’ll use the fact that multiple cars breached flags as a reason to conclude to either not penalise all of them or decide to simply void those laps - because both of these prevents Max from losing any places.
Noone seems to have read the article sun tzu posted? Can hardly blame Verstappen for not slowing when he's not been told to slow by the stewards?
" The footage also shows that a double yellow did not appear on Verstappen's steering wheel, which it normally should. Normally, a driver would get a grid penalty for the race if they ignore a yellow flag, but the Dutchman has no need to worry. "
if you watch it on fast forward he actually speeds up when he sees the yellows.
I think it's the same way fans think referees have agendas against their team.Why's everyone on here acting as if the FIA are pro RB/Max and anti Merc/Lewis? Bit weird.
recent decisions do favour RBWhy's everyone on here acting as if the FIA are pro RB/Max and anti Merc/Lewis? Bit weird.
Hasn't it been the other way around for years though? At least that's what I've been reading on the likes of Facebook for what seems like an eternity. Even earlier this season with the FIA changing the pitstop regs for example.recent decisions do favour RB
Couldn't tell you to be honest, i've only seriously started watching f1 since last season. don't think they're pro anyone but I do think RB have been very lucky recently with some decisions.Hasn't it been the other way around for years though?

Yeah same, I've been into cars and bikes for all of my life and so I've always liked F1 and did watch it occasionally but I must say I've only started gradually getting more into it when Verstappen burst on the scene as a fellow Dutchman. Didn't start watching every race I could untill last season and even now I do miss the occasional race when I've more important stuff to do. I rarely watch FP sessions let alone watch the stewards' every move.Couldn't tell you to be honest, i've only seriously started watching f1 since last season. don't think they're pro anyone but I do think RB have been very lucky recently with some decisions.
Maybe because it is one rule for Max and a different rule for everyone else regarding running cars off the track?Why's everyone on here acting as if the FIA are pro RB/Max and anti Merc/Lewis? Bit weird.
