Funny old top ten!

Suzie wolf has a book coming out later in the year!

 

[Lola123]

But maybe only for 2025. The press keep erp going on about Max going there. Yawn.

So both George and kimi only have contracts till 2025. Mercedes seem to keep both drivers for the same length contracts which I don’t understand

I just watched the latest grill the grid episode and lando is a miserable mf
No idea when they would’ve filmed this but he was like a family member who is being dragged into activities

I wonder if it was when he was ill or just after his grandma died, he wasn’t himself at all, unless he really didn’t want to do it? But McLaren forced him too speed run it but be miserable

I think they film these all back in January?

He came across as a bit in this one as well from a few months ago:

 

[aidil]

Bring back Cyril!

 

[Red hair dont care]

And now Flávio is TP! Ollie Oakes has resigned!!! wtf

Another team becoming a joke.
Rumours Jack is gone too

All the yes men around him (Jos, Horner, Marko, manager) have made him this way.

I've long thought Max has a touch of autism. Oscar too. Their reactions are just... off.

Max must have ADHD surely (says as someone with it) but they both overlap so yes.

Exactly.its like they sit there and think, well we need it interesting for next week to make sure there is some "interest" next week for constructors and 2nd place.yeah I'm a cynic.

Exactly this!!!!!

Max
You just can’t doubt his race craft

I have found it intresting JV saying the safety car from McLaren made him feel like they didn’t want to upset Oscar which is a narrative I’ve seen online (I don’t believe it)
Not a bad one for hopefully not the last Monza

Didn't watch all the race as footie on, pin pont overtake from Max to be in front. So late. Only turned back to F1 when the safety car was out. Not great for Kimis home race but at least the Ferrari's improved and cheered the hone fans up.

He'd have a point if he wasn't so fine with weird rule quirks when things work out for him, like Miami or the red flag in qualy. And he really does come across as dismissive and rude, particularly towards Esteban and Max at points, so it's hard to give him benefit of the doubt. Particularly when he's talking about driver talent, it's just needless.

The free pitstops were strategic from at least the Alpine boys - Esteban was asked what tyres he wanted under SC, he said he didn't want any and wanted track position because of the rain. Pierre said straight out when asked that he wasn't going to pit because the rain was bad enough that it'd be red flagged soon.

Alpine's drivers were cleverer than Lando here. And it's potentially netted Enstone 50 million extra...

Tbf some drivers do ignore their teams, George and lando both did make claims to stay out but the their teams called them in, so they did it.

 

[conrea37]

There is a rumor that Perez is going to announce his retirement at the Mexican GP.

We had this rumour last year too!

 

[Red hair dont care]

So are we assuming that Checo will allow Max to pass him in the race especially if not leading?

 

[Red hair dont care]

Sent this with glee to Mr E because I've made so many jokes about Danny Ric coming back just to wind him up of course until I see it from an official source or see him on the grid I'll take it with a huge pinch of salt!

Well it could happen. They will need an experienced driver and no doubt an American driver.
Question is does Danny Ricc want to come back?

 

[kale-supremacist]

I've been out of the formula 1 game since the Horner thing, but damn Carlos . How the mighty have fallen

 

[Onthehop]

F1 is back.
Sadly Danaca Sky F1, is there but not too OTT dressed for a change

I was surprised to see her there. Was she not sacked?

 

[Red hair dont care]

He’ll not admit it in the press but he’ll see we was in the wrong, red bull fucked him with the hards

Yep they did so assume his used soft tyres were too bad and had to put the hard tyres.on?

 

[Lola123]

Merc have massively messed up today! Why didn’t they do something different

 

[F1Grid]

Lewis had already left the track when this all came out He's had to have found out on the plane home

 

[Multi-21]

RB have confirmed Checo's staying in the seat.

Cringing for Daniel who was talking about not being sure which car he was driving in Zandvoort

Gosh did he really? I must have missed that
