Yeah I am calling it, Brasil will be the race when we lost the WDC. You heard it here first. Next year we will try again. Game over for me.

Lando could crash, Max could gain lots of positions, etc. It isn't over until the checkered flag.

Edit: Oh, and maybe Tsunoda gets the message from Helmut to torpedo Lando into turn one. :lol:

Said it would have been a stressful weekend for us Max supporter. What an incredible combinations of unlucky events these two days. When it goes like this you know it's not the year, let's see how the race goes.

if max had the same mentality, he wouldn't even have made it to f1 lol.
luckily, the only thing we can be sure about at this moment in time - he will fight until the very end.

Looks like a few will be pit lane starts, potentially. That'll shift the start positions a little.

RB can ask the VCARBS to get out of the way from Max and hold up Piastri :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: that'll get Zac paranoia hitting the rev limiter :mrgreen:

That's a joke for the McL fans looking in here, in case it was too subtle.

it's very unlikely lando could crash, he is one of the most reliable drivers on the grid when it comes to unforced errors.

He is starting next to Russell and with Yuki behind him though. :twisted:

You will see that after 3-4 more weeks I was right. The gap after today could be around 20 points with 3 races to go. And Mclaren has a dominant car, for Red Bull even a podium is hard to get. Max has no chance, its hard to say this as his big fan. I should just move on, at least I can be happy with amazing last 3 seasons he has had.

The race today will go ahead, because the forecast got better with less rain as expected.

Not a redbull fan, but I would say that the race directors messed it up today. They should have pulled out the red flag immediately. The calls should not favour one set of drivers and put others at a disadvantage. Everyone needs to be treated fairly.

Won't be surprised if Max still ends up on the podium. He's a demon in the rain.. Like Senna and Schumacher.

Even if it's worse than yesterday's Q, the race will happen, even if for two laps, behind a safety car ; and then whatever is the applicable fraction of the points will be awarded to the drivers who wont be allowed to overtake behind the safety car anyway.

Behind the scenes, F1 will ensure race control rules it this way, because that will ensure Verstappen scores 0 and Norris eats further into the lead. They are, ultimately, like 2021, going for 'entertainment'. Fundamentally 'it's a business', the money needs to keep coming in.

It's hard to swallow, but it's the truth.

By all means, Max should end up a minimum 5th in race with a normal performance. Anything more would be a good bonus.
