Catching up on the highlights on channel 4 and Instagram. It might not be the most popular opinion over the last couple of years but I do love Vettel. Seeing his helmet swap with Charles and then handing out beers to the Ferrari team was so lovely. I hope Aston Martin treats him well

I'd be so happy for Perez because he deserves to race. But I only worry whether he can race a car that is designed to suit Verstappen to such an extreme. Or whether Perez ends up in a Vandoorne/Alonso situation where Vandoorne wasn't a bad driver, just having to drive a car totally unsuited to his driving style.

Also I am surprised Albon didn't keep the drive because of the Thai shareholders at Red Bull, honestly expected that was saving Albon.

Interestingly the FIA published an updated entry list for next year, Hamilton is listed as confirmed for Mercedes even though as far as we know no contract has yet been signed. Just leaving the Red Bull and Alpha Tauri second seats up for grabs.

Hamilton definitely running scared from Russell I think. Toto is running scared from making the mistake of resigning Bottas by encouraging him in qualifying etc. Bottas is aware he is now officially on borrowed time if Hamilton is staying longer term.

The excuse Mercedes came out with for the pit stop shambles last week seems like rit. During a radio communication from the pitwall to pit crews Russell tried to radio in and it got interrupted and ended up messing up the message to the pit crew for which tyres first. Seems dodgy to me.
Perez to Red Bull.......

I guess if Perez struggles with the car, then at least it's not just Alex!

Really happy for Sergio and I think they have a good chance at challenging Merc now or at least splitting Lewis and Valterri in the standings. A lot still depends on the car development

Perez definitely deserved a drive.

It will be interesting to see him against a top driver. And whether he can get on top of a "Made for Max" Red Bull car. The likes of Gasly and Albon are talented drivers but couldn't get on top of the Red Bull cars. But both showed great talent in the junior formula and at TR/Alpha Tauri.

I watched it yesterday. Thought that it was a bit boring haha. But there were some interessant things in it. But most of those thing I already knew(especially because everyone knows how his father is)

I think Red Bull are going all out to win next year (even more than normal). Honda will want to win for a bit of face saving, and there is a good chance that they will lose Newey.

I do really like Max and his dad is pure trash and it’s clear all Max’s bad qualities are from how his dad raised him. I wish he would tell him to duck off.

I can understand the road rage though I don’t like the bad terms he uses on drivers. But one was used here against him which explains a lot.

Is this confirmed somewhere?
They haven’t confirmed anything. But this was posted a month ago.

If you have instagram there is an account called Wags F1 which has a video of Max in Brazil with Kelly and their friends taken in the last few days. (SS of the video below. Max is next to Kelly and her baby).

And there was this picture of Kelly posted two days ago.

God, that is nearly as complicated as Footballers and their WAGs who have been around three or four footballers at least, normally all playing for the same team.
