2024 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

Verstappen drives well, when he's not pulling utterly filthy moves.

I saw some utterly filthy moves up the inside of T1 today. Better luck next year.

[Sergej]

for once no slow pit stop today lol

[CHT]

Superb drive from Max, from 17 to win by over 18 seconds and fastest lap. Perez 's race was miserable and really painful to watch.
With a new PU, Max should be in good position to defend his championship race for the remaining 3 races.

What? He was in the pit for like 20 minutes or so!

Red Bull, meanwhile, scored 32 points from the Sprint weekend – 31 of them earned by Verstappen, after Perez failed to score in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix

I would just retire if I was Perez, at this point. This is ludicrous.

We can take the WDC in Vegas, if Lando fails to outscore Max by 12 points over the whole weekend.

64points needed to win now for Lando

So 2 races left with a win and FL is 52points. So if Max can keep Lando from scoring more, hes WDC.

I think he’ll do in Vegas which would be a glitzy place to do it- a great place to celebrate it after too.
There is no way Lando will out score him by 12 points. It’s more likely that Verstappen will out score Lando

Qatar has the sprint (+8 points). To win in Vegas, Max has not to lose more than 2 points from Lando.

Care to explain a bit more?

Surely 12 points or more dropped to lando would leave it open, through both the sprint and the race (the weekend on whole)

Edit: ahh yeah, got the wrong sprint weekend.

The WDC has been sewn up for a while tbh- Max secured it with some great second places and podiums even when McLaren had the marginally faster package.

Was always a mega hill to climb for Lando and it’s only the media and Liberty hyping this as a title battle.

Max for me has shown he’s got the edge and deserves the title- Lando will learn a lot from his year at the sharp end this year and next season should be a cracker!

[chrisc90]

So going off that then:

26 points in vegas
26 points +8 points in qatar 34total
26 points in Dubai


34 + 26 points from last 2 races is 60 points.

64 needed to win for lando.

So if Max scores 4 more points than Lando in Vegas, Lando would need to win the last 2 races on the calander without max scoring.

[Cs98]

Lando has to outscore Max by 3 points or more in LV to keep the WDC alive. Anything less and Max wins.

Btw Horner should start applying pressure to FIA to don't make Herbert steward ever again.

Not because of his decisions, but how he present himself in the media. If FIA is so aware about language and stuff like that, they should be also sensitive about these kind of issues.
It is unacceptable for a steward to talk like that, and FIA should make it very clear that there is no place for bias. The very least they should present a statement about Herbert.

Even as a Ferrari fan who is far from a Max/Red Bull fan, I'm really made up for you guys,
Mostly because you finally put an end to the media and McLaren's hopes, not yet mathematically but I think it's safe to say it might as well be now. Not sure what it is exactly but I've grown to seriously dislike McLaren over the past few months!

Well done Max and well done Red Bull

[Sieper]

Thank you dia6olo, and many others. Really appreciated. What a day, a rollercoaster. I will remember this one forever.
