Lewis won at this track in 2021 starting the sprint from 20th. But the sprint result set the GP grid, so he didn't start the GP from 20th.
True, he recovered a lot on the sprint.
Or... As Max himself said, he struggled because Leclerc is actually pretty decent in the rain and was also the only driver to defend his place.venkyhere wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024, 05:53That's race intelligence (and of course mega bravery&skill to take so much kerb in the wet). A good launch from T12 means proper speed buildup for T1 overtake. This is why he got close enough to execute passes in T1 without DRS. He struggled to overtake LeClerc, because given similar DF levels, the Ferrari is simply much more aero-efficient and has greater straightline speed.AR3-GP wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024, 04:58Max was the only driver jumping the curb at Juncao.

What happened?Paa wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024, 01:41Btw 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.
it wasnt hype Norris is driving the fastest car on the grid.max has gone 9 races without a victory and redbull has since lost their lead in constructors.if these trend continue redbull will have a problem next year.so redbull need to fix their car because they are behind ferrari too.a motivated Lewis could be a problemMansell89 wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024, 01:21The 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!
Not in Vegas. RB seem to be the draggiest out of the top 4 teams now, without a proper low DF wing also. Also, we need to see if this good tyre wear in Brazil is sustainable or just a one off, like it was in the COTA sprint. Max will clinch it in Qatar. Vegas will be a Leclerc or Norris pole and an interesting race.
After that sh!tty Q for Max yesterday, I had a feeling the race will turn out to be one sided and in his favour. It happened many times before and it happened again. So I'm gonna stick with my feeling for VegasCs98 wrote: ↑04 Nov 2024, 12:37Not in Vegas. RB seem to be the draggiest out of the top 4 teams now, without a proper low DF wing also.
