Hi guys. Race thread here.
Effing words were made a race topic by the events surrounding Max.

Global socioeconomic politics were not made race relevant, it was only an (many) effing word(s).
Many posts have been deleted, perhaps even more should have been.
If you are telling millions of other people how they should live their lives, you have veered into politics. Do NOT do that in this forum; politics are off limits.

Let's talk about a race in singapore and perhaps, what Max said or did not say, what he will or will not do in the coming days-weeks as a consequence. And let's leave it at that.
Rivals, not enemies.

It is raceday!!! [before a 4 week stop]

Any idea why a 4 week break in the calendar?

Qatar was initially supposed to take place on October 6th, but they made use of some kind of veto right.

Ok

Last year the first week of October was not a great time for the drivers.

Hamilton starts on softs. Let's see if he can get into the lead.

What is Lewis doing starting on the soft, stupid idea. The earlier you have to pit the less chance you have of finding a gap when you do pit, brain-dead move!

Yeah its ridiculous tbh. These guys don't crash like that anymore. 1 safety car in the last 7 and that was on the last lap.
“And that’s part of the game, is being able to be adaptive, and we’ve got this new car – I don’t know how it’s going to handle, hopefully she’s great.”

"Right Lewis, we are going to start you on the softs which means we will have to pit earlier than the cars around you and that means you will be stuck in traffic!"

"Ok Bono, love you Bro!"

Why do you all assume a SC strategy with the S? Looks to me like a turn 1 - try & jump some cars strategy.
Team ANTI-HYPE. Prove it, then I’ll anoint you.

Amazing, try and jump two cars with a short run to the first corner, brilliant tactics.

Just to make it even more ridiculous, they were not even new softs.

It's Formula 1 & it's "RACING" only on these tracks it isn't racing, what it is, is mighty boring and anti racing!

Nobody is negligent enough to choose this strategy with good intentions.
