2019 Mexican Grand Prix - Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, 25-27 October

lets be honest guys, those who are yelling and screaming at Max Verstappen (and yes he made a big mistake and shoud have kept his mouth shut), did these get so exicted as Leclerc drove 3 laps with a broken front wing and endangered other drivers with possible parts falling off ..... no ..... so keep the hypocrisy for yourself, because this is just painfull to read.

I'm one of the persons criticising ("yelling and screaming", the way you described it) Max for what he's done, but I didn't get excited when Leclerc was driving with a damaged car. My initial reaction was that he immediately needs to pit and every lap he didn't pit I was losing faith in Ferrari once again - as a Ferrari fan.

I'd be glad, if you could show me the ones who were being excited about Leclerc's endangering driving and at the same time are criticising Max now. Because that's what you claim.

Stop the nonsense guys. Everyone displays the same amount of stupidity depending on who you support and whether it is to one's liking or not. If it is Red Bull at fault, all the other team fans blast that team and/or driver and the RB fans jump into defend. When it is Ferrari, the same s*** happens to and fro. Same with Mercedes. No one here is sane or stupid and chose to take up roles based on preferences.

Those who are long here understand that it is impossible to convince anyone who has taken a position, whether it is right ir wrong. It's just a good circus that keeps rolling with every such incident.

and why didn't you critized Leclerc? he could have killed another driver by driving on with broken parts that fall off later and COULD have done worse to another driver ....

so no what i claim is exactly what you did (bolded text).... critize max, but not leclerc ..... these kind of ppl are just seeing what they wanna see and nothing else.
and if an opportunity arise to critize another driver besides their own favorites, they are the first to do so.....

and as i already stated, i found the action Verstappen made and the comment afterwards, just plain stupid, dumb, idiotic, and i say this as a known Verstappen fan

edit: you can dislike this opinion as much as you want, this is how i see it

[Fnatic1]

Can anybody explain the following?

1) Why did the FIA not bring out the red flag? In FP1, Stroll hit the wall and immediately (2 sec later) the session was stopped. Bottas has a massive accident and there’s just a yellow flag being waved. In my opinion the FIA should be blamed primarily.

2) Why could Rosberg maintain his pole position in Hungary 2016? What’s the difference in these two cases?

[aral]

Red flag not used as the Q3 was actually finished and the chequered flag was being shown.

"The telemetry demonstrated that the driver reduced speed significantly into turn eight.” was the reason given back then

I don’t know what happened to dans79’s post to you in which he quotes me blaming the Leclerc situation in Japan. Whatever, it’s in the race thread. Go check before making accusations.

to come back to today's race: will Vettel use Leclercs slipstream to get into the lead at the start, and if so, what will Ferrari do this time?

[Scorpaguy]

To keep things civil, there is an unwritten rule that certain drivers are beyond even the slightest amt. of criticism...even to think of doing so brings out acidic verbal wrath and questions of your parentage. Max, Rus, and Ham are amongst the current crop of drivers one shall not criticize.

...on the flipside, there is a similar rule that some drivers MUST be criticized at any cost, such as Vet, Bot, and Rom.

Following these unwritten rules would keep the forum far more amicable.

Leclerc is unlikely to just let him breeze by this time. So while they're squabbling Verstappen will mug them both or crash into them or something in-between.

Ferrari should just let them race.

[search]

let's hope so, yes

[NathanOlder]

Would VET have passed LEC if not for the double yellows? Does anyone know?

He would have.

by a tenth

You mean he was a tenth up at that point obviously. For all we know, Seb, Lewis or Max could have smashed in to the wall where Bottas did if Valterri didn't do it himself.

[FrukostScones]

VET HAM BOT

LEC and VES crash.
