monaco-gp

[vague trellis]

They probably gonna win constructor by over 100 points

[peak river]

Does Max have huge beef with Lando?

[timber oxide]

Ferrari is chasing them

[fleet aspen]

Yes it does

[vague trellis]

Piastri take one for the team

I want 2008 Singapore action

[twin fox]

Sad : (

[proper skiff]

h

h

[peak river]

What is 2008 Singapore action?

[vague trellis]

The thing is tho do yall actually believe max will finish 2nd and lando 1st every race

[strange apex]

what is this chart?

[proper skiff]

*/h*

[vague trellis]

It’s a pretty useless stat imo

[keen skiff]

wouldn't count on it but anything's possible. I remember Myself and everyone else were on their toes in 2021 between Max and Lewis. Despite the gap between them being 12 points before the US Grand Prix, any error or penalty mattered 💀

[vague trellis]

It’s gonna be different every race I think

[timber oxide]

yeah

[twin fox]

By 1 point !!!!

[storm drum]

nahh, their friends this is just rivalry on track

[vague trellis]

Like no one expected Lando do start P17 last race

[twin fox]

F

[strange apex]

😭😭😭 i believe in lando he can win

[storm drum]

honestly no, it would take miracles and ridiculous amount of luck for this to happen, but not entirely impossible if the upgrades Red Bull brings in Austin works

[lethal bramble]

Crashgate
Alonso won for Renault due to Nelson Piquet Jr crashing and causing a safety car

It was later found out that Nelson was asked to crash on purpose to help Alonso win

[peak river]

Doesn’t DNF stand for did not finish?

[keen skiff]

Lando would have to be in the same form as Lewis by the final stints of 2021 cause by Brazil, Max had no response to Mercedes upgrades. It was a slow pendulum swing.

[twin fox]

Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

[fleet aspen]

Couldn’t agree more. Absolutely not going to happen. We all know Max is gonna get P1 all the remaining races this season 🥹🫶🦁

[keen skiff]

Until Abu Dhabi

[strange apex]

max could finish 🤞🏻🧡🧡🧡

[peak river]

Oh but isn’t that cheating?

[snow swan]

Rain is falling

[keen skiff]

When was the Last Race Max finished this season?

[snow swan]

Like

[twin fox]

Point, thats too optimistic

[snow swan]

MAX VERSTAPPEN

[fleet aspen]

Singapore a few hours ago 😅

[lethal bramble]

Points for the races
In the sheet Max gets P2 every race and sprint
Lando wins every race and sprint and gets fastest lap

[keen skiff]

No I mean as a winner

[snow swan]

TU TU TU DU
MAX VERSTAPPEN

[fleet aspen]

DU DU DU DU 🥹🫶🦁

[fleet aspen]

Barcelona

[snow swan]

MAX VERSTAPPEN 🔥

[small tiger]

TU TU TU MAX VERSTAPPEN

[strange apex]

Ohhh thank you for explaining

[fleet aspen]

DU DU DU DU CHARLES LELCERC

[small tiger]

I PUT IT ON MY WEDDING PLAYLIST LOL

[peak river]

Someone on Roblox call my Max Verstappen Roblox avatar Mr. Beast 😭😭😭😭

[strange apex]

so basically if Max is P3 or anywhere under that Lando could win

[buoyant lodge]

SAME

[strange apex]

LMAO

im sorry but thats funny

[fleet aspen]

Assuming Lando is p1

[peak river]

It’s alright I end up laughing at it

[fleet aspen]

All we need is to unleash Oscar Piastri dark side

Come on Oscar you know you want that p1

Take it bro 👀

[peak river]

What the heck is WDC?

[raw plaza]

unless team orders oscar will def try to win

[strange apex]

yeah but if hes p2 once and max like p5 or p4 it could still be posible

[strange apex]

drivers world championship

[lethal bramble]

Yep
As of Baku Lando could win all races sprints and fastest laps and win no matter what Max does
But now thats not the case
up till Baku McLaren could have just been balls to the wall focus on Lando forget everything else but now they have to make sure the team focuses on keeping Max P3 or lower with Lando wins

Only then can Lando win WDC

[peak river]

Oh I see 👍

[raw plaza]

anything is possible 💀 lando needs to drive perfectly max alr can extract maximum performance

[strange apex]

truee

[strange apex]

seeing redbulls current state i dont believe max will win any race tbh

[small tiger]

NO the charles 's song is a song of Nirvana where there is " i am stupid " lol. When I hear this song, i think about Charles lol

[fleet aspen]

Lando could also have a terrible race and end up p16 with a broken front wing

[raw plaza]

they are bringing upgrades in austin wait for a month to see where the bulls are

[strange apex]

they lost 8 million euros , newey left i believe, some deisgner also left apperently

[strange apex]

yeah anything is possible tbh u cant predict anything its a sport

[raw plaza]

with charles able to put a fast lap ferrari can win

[small tiger]

thanks i laughed

[twin gazelle]

isn't newey on the garden?

[peak river]

Some of my friends from different server didn’t realize that Charles has a TikTok account

[storm drum]

Ummm. he does?

[raw plaza]

yea lando has nothing tgo lose anyway even if he doesnt win wdc this is still his best year

[strange apex]

tbh idk i heard he left red bull and is olanning to go to aston martin

[peak river]

Yeah

[lethal bramble]

Newey signed for Aston Martin did you guys not see the news
yes Newey is in the garden till March

[storm drum]

Its alreadly been signed hes going to aston

[lethal bramble]

#f1-news message

[raw plaza]

planning the deal is done 2 weeks ago

😭

[strange apex]

yeah i thought so

[twin gazelle]

was announced by lawrence 2 weeks ago

[strange apex]

but my memory is poor so i dont want to say things that may be wrong

[twin gazelle]

mhm

[raw plaza]

are u living under a rock

[lethal bramble]

Newey will have some involvement in the AMR25
But he will be fully involved in the AMR26

[queen igloo]

bro I got muted yesterday for saying if u hate verstappen shut up 😭😭 istg if this mutes me

[raw plaza]

newey was not even a well kept secret

[twin gazelle]

The WORST KEPT SECRET in F1 history

[queen igloo]

anyways the race was boring today

[raw plaza]

yea

[queen igloo]

alonso fans with the hope 😭

[strange apex]

who? me not i thought so but i was unsure 😭 i just have a lot of stress so i dont want to yapp nonsense that i saw on f1 instagram and potentially misunderstood

[strange apex]

hell yeah 🗣️ alonso 3rd time wdc

[raw plaza]

[peak river]

Should I get it?

[keen skiff]

And Max last wins in 2021 were Mexico and Abu Dhabi with 3 victories Taken by Lewis. Lando would have to win most of these reamining Races I think but if Max gets P2 each time, he wins the championship

[storm drum]

omg

[strange apex]

i thought that was more like kimi antonelli or so

[queen igloo]

what the fuck

[storm drum]

what game is this?

[strange apex]

yes.

[peak river]

Yes he is in Roblox

[keen skiff]

This is not looking good for Lando

[raw plaza]

both were worst kept secret

[storm drum]

omg

[queen igloo]

Roblox used to be blocks

[strange apex]

👍🏻 i agree

[peak river]

Roblox

[storm drum]

yes

[queen igloo]

WHY DO WE HAVE A SLOWNDOWN

[raw plaza]

red bull sister team should just be dedicated to taking fastest lap

[lethal bramble]

How tf did Jeremy Clarkson know that Newey was house hunting in Oxfordshire

[queen igloo]

we had a 30 second slowdown yesterday it made shit tears

[twin gazelle]

both were worst kept but if I would have to pick one I'd say Newey> Kimi

[raw plaza]

they both were classmates

[keen skiff]

Lando would need to win the Sprint next race but also, He'd have to win most of these races and hope max gets beaten out of a podium at least ONCE in these last remaining 6 races

[peak river]

I only have 3.6k on Roblox

[raw plaza]

christian horner masterclass

[lethal bramble]

still how
did he call him or were they both house hunting at the same time

[strange apex]

yeah makes sense

[small tiger]

i hope Oscar wil win more race.....

[slender plover]

the hornerdog

[strange apex]

🤞🏻🙏🏻

[raw plaza]

winning every race needs immense amount a consistency and me personally dont think he has that yet

not saying he cant

[queen igloo]

You man you

[keen skiff]

that's one trump card McLaren has to hold Max back

[raw plaza]

but its a big ask

[south heron]

not impossible that they do so in 80% of the remaining races but no way they'll do so in all of them

RB have fallen off hard while McLaren have remained quick

[queen igloo]

people switching to oscar from lando is so ehh to me

[pseudo quail]

lando gains on max every race now

[strange apex]

fr

[pseudo quail]

there i jinxed it

[raw plaza]

https://tenor.com/view/fastest-lap-max-verstappen-gif-888747356393781215

[south heron]

yeah some fans really could do better with not being fairweather fans

[queen igloo]

are redbull cars fucked?

[turbid pine]

Meaning?

[small steppe]

kinda

[strange apex]

yes

[raw plaza]

if max wins any 2 races in next 6 its over

[strange apex]

their strategy too tbh hasnt been so good lately

[small tiger]

i hope he will win

[raw plaza]

i thinbk max did everything he could out of that car today

[queen igloo]

they like lando then oscar wins so we're on oscar's side

[small steppe]

bruh leclerc has more chance to win than max considering car

[queen igloo]

r u a ferrari fan?

[turbid pine]

Ahh , yeah these people kinda suck

[merry elk]

İ think so

[strange apex]

frr like so many 😭

[queen igloo]

guys fuck loyalty with ferrari cause wtf is that shit!!

[south heron]

agreed

[south heron]

eh, the Ferrari is a bit better now but it's still inconsistent

even in the race today they weren't really contenders

they're kinda like Mercedes but a bit better

[strange apex]

true

[queen igloo]

if you support ferrari you have my best blessings for future

[heady shale]

they coulda been if their quali was better

[queen igloo]

🙏🏻

[south heron]

technically I never stopped supporting them but I disassociated with them after they kicked Seb to the curb in 2020

[merry elk]

Thanks bro

[queen igloo]

ferrari is cursed period

[strange apex]

REAL

i agree sm w u same

[south heron]

actually after 2018 already because they threw away another championship

[queen igloo]

SAME

[south heron]

but even then idk I can't say I ever stopped supporting them

[queen igloo]

here I am with mclaren

[south heron]

they are

[storm drum]

agreed

[south heron]

this year's been so weird to root for them

[strange apex]

fr

[south heron]

one weekend they're super good, the other they're in no man's land like it's 2023

[queen igloo]

dude mclaren also did make me cry like wth the cars were fucking tractors 😭😭😭🖕🏻🖕🏻

[south heron]

right

I'm still in disbelief that they're actually leading the fucking WCC rn

[storm drum]

the inconsistency is killing me, because we know that the drivers are good, but is it the car is it the stratiegies who knows any more

[proper skiff]

#h

[south heron]

even now it hasn't fully set in for me

[south heron]

inclined to believe that it's the car this time

at least for a significant part

[strange apex]

tbh the strategies and the cars in my opinion

2 or 3 races ago mclaren did a terrible 2 stop strategy

[merry elk]

İ didnt watch the race today is it good guys

[strange apex]

and then like ferrarri startegy

[small tiger]

boring

[strange apex]

todays yeah it was good lando won 🔥

[buoyant lodge]

FRR

[turbid pine]

It was boring level , nothing much interesting happened

[merry elk]

İ know

[strange apex]

but it lacked some action

[queen igloo]

ferrari strategy is like my math test

[fringe vapor]

this race was boring

[strange apex]

even tho some overtakes where cool

[small tiger]

???

[turbid pine]

Except lap 1 was pretty intense

[buoyant lodge]

IT WAS BORING

[queen igloo]

Monaco ass race

[strange apex]

but tbh races w Max leading r even more boring

[fringe vapor]

i love to see lando outscoring max

[strange apex]

real

[hushed olive]

When Ferrari last won a championship:
Max verstappen and charles leclerc were 10 years old
Lewis Hamilton only had 4 wins in f1
Kimi antonelli was 1 year old
Fernando Alonso was aged 26
Ollie bearman was 2 years old
We still had v8 engines

[merry elk]

Ye lando didnt give the 1st place i saw that

[queen igloo]

max = lando

[fringe vapor]

No way

[strange apex]

olli being 2 is insane

[queen igloo]

oh good lord Alonso was 26

[fringe vapor]

Max is still miles clear of lando, skill wise

[merry elk]

İts not for my think

[queen igloo]

fair.

[queen igloo]

atleast this season for me

[strange apex]

agreed

[queen igloo]

lando should've won imola

[keen skiff]

Its not just every race, he needs the sprint points along with Max getting lower than P2 in these last remaining races. Doing the math, If Lando won Every Race + 8 additional Points from the sprint, he would total to an amount of 437.

Max would just have to earn P2 every race, along with finishing ANYWHERE Between 1st and 8th and he'll secure the championship at a total 440.
So ultimately the Sprint will be a deciding factor, along with Piastri's and Norris's overall places in the remaining races. Oscar would be a key trump card in supporting Norris.

[fringe vapor]

i just want lando to outscore max so we get some crazy season finale in yas marina

[small tiger]

ok sorry haha

[desert flame]

lando norris and max verstappen

[merry elk]

But this season is perfect i thing lots of racer won a grip

[queen igloo]

max cursing redbull is so fun

[queen igloo]

rightttt

[hushed olive]

Dawg man i wanted max to break the singapore curse

[fervent swift]

[still forge]

Isn't P2 still his best result over there?

[merry elk]

İ wish this that alonso won an grip this season

[turbid pine]

NICO HULKENBERGGGGGGGG

[hushed olive]

Yes

[fervent swift]

BRO OVERTOOK STROLL IN STANDINGS

[radiant hollow]

"L" Stroll

[queen igloo]

I read that in Daniel's voice

[strange apex]

Niko hüüülkenBERG🗣️

[fringe vapor]

to be fair the haas is better than the amr

[desert flame]

norris singapore vs norris netherlands

[queen igloo]

guys I didn't know Logan Sargeant left

[feral wind]

Bro Kevin keeps disappearing after the gp

[hushed olive]

10 in the championship and only 24 points says alot when we have 4 teams fighthing at the top

[feral wind]

I swear this Kevin runs very fast

[strange apex]

nobody can escape dani saying nico and pierre 😭

[strange apex]

HOW?

[fringe vapor]

glad to see him gone, the whole f1 thing seemed to be doing a number on his mental health

[fervent swift]

Alonso is in the middle of nowhere with 62 points

alonso cant overtake or get overtaken bro is just 9th

[queen igloo]

bro's in Indy car

[merry elk]

Btw ricardo takes the driver of the day

[queen igloo]

good to know what the fuck is a kilometer

[fringe vapor]

the top 4 cars are so so clear of the rest

[strange apex]

he started better in singapour

[fringe vapor]

its hard to outscore them without some shenanigans going on

[desert flame]

yes

[strange apex]

not the reaction time i think bit the time to like actually make the car go fast

[desert flame]

traction

[strange apex]

idk how its in english

ohhh

[desert flame]

reaction time same as verstappen

[strange apex]

yeah

[merry elk]

Also fist time he didnt give the 1st place

[mild ginkgo]

Ricciardo verstapen towel boy confirmed, that fastest lap shit was thr most cringe thing ever xd

[strange apex]

fr so proud of him

[snow swan]

you’re mad british boy

[queen igloo]

god Nicole Piastri is so iconic

[fervent swift]

Abi Pulling dominance may bore fans

[fringe vapor]

reaction time is not the only factor when it comes to getting a good start

[strange apex]

yeah (i didnt understand a word mate)

[raw plaza]

Yea but if McLaren don’t give team order and just say “papaya rules” then Oscar can easily hinder lando

[queen igloo]

what is rhis

[mild ginkgo]

Not more mad than rb fans rn xd

[fervent swift]

f1 academy standings

[quaint kite]

Are we going to ignore that Haas tried to do the same thing with Kevin Magnussen

[queen igloo]

i only know bianca

[snow swan]

they’re not mad actually

[fervent swift]

bianca is 7th

[queen igloo]

Right

[mild ginkgo]

Losing wcc must feel bad

[raw plaza]

Look the championship is maxs to lose even if lando doesn’t win it’s still his best performance yet and he will be very proud of the year

[strange apex]

wait is that the girl whos like breakdancing or is that just a meme of someone who looks similar to oscar

[queen igloo]

THATS HIS MOTHER BYEEE

[mild ginkgo]

just vcarb doing shit to help verstappen is just cringe

[strange apex]

OH 😭

[quaint kite]

As of right now I think Lando needs to be taking more points out of max than he has been

[queen igloo]

also the one breakdancing is his sister

[snow swan]

no one cares bout wcc ngl why u pickin fights loser you pushin 30

[queen igloo]

Nicole Piastri at hungary

[raw plaza]

doesn’t matter if lando doesn’t become world champion this year he should be very proud of what he achieved I hope he doesn’t lose wdc by 1 point if he does

[strange apex]

omg thats so wholesome

[queen igloo]

exactly

[storm drum]

yeah, but if thats the case itll be a brilliant season by both max and lando

[raw plaza]

Max did a very good job of making his car p2

[quaint kite]

I don't think he could have done any more than he did

[raw plaza]

I think this year ppl are more appreciative of how max is as a driver

[queen igloo]

what's the gap

[strange apex]

yeah i agree

[quaint kite]

I believe it's 52 points as of right now

[hushed olive]

Abbi thinks she is max verstappen

[queen igloo]

i meant time

[quaint kite]

Iirc it was 23 ish seconds at the end

[storm drum]

they def are like red bull currently has so many holes in there performance that even a max dominance cant hide anymore

[storm drum]

it is

[lethal bramble]

Lemme tell you what will bore fans
Making the same PULLING joke over and over again the millisecond she gets into P1

[raw plaza]

I mean that McLaren is fast but quali in p2 when the car looked shit on Friday is still a big feat and this was one race where ppl thought lando could have gained a lot to max

[cosmic vapor]

i’m sorry

but this race was such a shitter race to start the break

[south heron]

bruh I just now noticed that she's wearing a Piastri Eras Tour T-shirt lmao

epic

[shrewd flare]

Question, what happened in the last 20 laps that piastri couldn’t narrow down to max? Traffic?

[cosmic vapor]

all the boring races are getting good and all the good races are getting boring

[raw plaza]

Yea true

[cosmic vapor]

he wasn’t trying to

[shrewd flare]

Ah, ok

[raw plaza]

That and max had similar pace to piastri

[cosmic vapor]

god man that mclaren is just so fucking insane i wish ferrari were up there fighting

instead we fumble as per usual

[grave sundial]

Lol

[raw plaza]

Ur delusion train were knocked down yday

[hushed olive]

Singapore,Bahrain and jeddah were Bad races but spain Miami hungary and belgium were good races

[raw plaza]

💀

[grave sundial]

I think they can improve their game still

[quaint kite]

Seemed like he just didn't have the pace for whatever reason

[vernal holly]

https://fxtwitter.com/oscarpiastri/status/1837895658419732537

[cosmic vapor]

idk man baku and singapore were supposed to be our best races

[raw plaza]

💀

[storm drum]

such a mood

[timber oxide]

🐐

[cosmic vapor]

p5 p7 in singapore is almost as bad as redbull last year

[raw plaza]

cooldown room are just better when max is there imo he gives good reaction to the audience

[shrewd flare]

I feel like now the 7 points of piastri first win take an even bigger toll from lando WDC chances

[quaint kite]

Considering you started 9th and 10th I don't think it's a bad result

[shrewd flare]

McLaren need to get their things straight

[quaint kite]

Considering both of your drivers fucked it in qualifying

[raw plaza]

yea

[quaint kite]

McLaren have cost themselves a good amount of points when you step back and take a look at it

Putting Lando on the hard in Silverstone comes to mind

[shrewd flare]

Indeed

[timber oxide]

more than those ones, the 3 points from italy where they weren't fighthing anything

[languid apex]

oops i meant 7

[timber oxide]

at least oscar's win have a excuse

[shrewd flare]

“Papaya rules” gonna ruin their year

[storm drum]

took them a bit for them to realize that they actually have a championship car

[shrewd flare]

They should’ve noticed since Miami lmao

[storm drum]

Right?

[shrewd flare]

That wasn’t luck, that was a champion car

[shrewd flare]

But also, I think this goes to show max and Red Bull consistency while they had the championship car. How they basically maximized everything

Yet McLaren has fumbled a lot of points

[timber oxide]

the car is bad anyway

[hushed olive]

Best mclaren emplooye of the year:
Checo perez

[timber oxide]

not even verstappen can hide it

[raw plaza]

Yea max drove amazing last year that ppl had to fight for p2 instead

[fervent swift]

one driver has 331 points another has 144 idk what u think

[small tiger]

and the FIA

[storm drum]

I agree, Max is terrifying consistent, like the team car just couldnt upgrade well enough now they cant even hide it

[raw plaza]

if max leaves idk who can replace him

[vague trellis]

How do I see my @s in this chat

[hushed olive]

F1 wcc winners over the years
2009: brawn gp
2010-2013: red bull
2014-2021: Mercedes
2022-2023: Red bull
2024: Mclaren ???

[shrewd flare]

He was so consistent they didn’t listen to checo complaints since max was still winning

It was terrifying

[timber oxide]

steal piastri

[storm drum]

not a bad idea, but red bull needs to be able to give him a winning car as well

[fervent swift]

Norris hearing if he hadn't let Oscar pass he could have a real chance at the title

[raw plaza]

He and Hamilton are on another level I remember Adrian saying there is a difference between good drivers and wdc .ppl like max Lewis and alonso can read the race properly

[vague trellis]

If yall were in Norris place would you have let Oscar thru

[native breach]

Horner said Russell

[lethal bramble]

Guys look on the bright side
if Singapore gp becomes boring Sepang gp may come back

[native breach]

Sepang is abandoned

[vague trellis]

I want vietnam gp

[timber oxide]

Russell my beloved

[raw plaza]

I think he meant Russel for perez to him max is staying until 28 until max anounces otherwise

[storm drum]

definetly, like seeing alonso drive, despite his age its like hes always also consistently scoring some points even when aston isn't really performing

[lethal bramble]

Sepang got abandoned because Singapore was better in every single way and Malaysians would rather go to Singapore to watch live than come to Sepang

[shrewd flare]

I’ll phrase it like this. Max would’ve laughed at the request and sped off, just like me

[raw plaza]

yea he did get some today right he is putting the car where it doesn’t belong

[shrewd flare]

Team screw up isn’t my fault

[raw plaza]

Max would have bumped cars and crashed he doesn’t car if he ruins his race or oscars he is not gonna let someone pull of that move on him

[shrewd flare]

Yeah 😂😂😂

[timber oxide]

i would let him pass in exchange of his help the rest of the year, nani the fuck is a papaya rule

[storm drum]

like that one crash in either 2018 or 16

[raw plaza]

that’s what makes max max he has the senna mindset

[timber oxide]

unserious team

[raw plaza]

“Either I pass you or we crash” was the way senna drove

he took any gap he saw

[shrewd flare]

And this is one of the many reasons you see Perez and max gap

Not only skill driving, but the mindset of racing

[raw plaza]

that is why max has that fear factor when ppl race against him which lando doesn’t have

[fringe vapor]

proper racing

[raw plaza]

why Oscar made that move

[shrewd flare]

Yeah

Look at colapinto, he seems to have a good driving spirit

[raw plaza]

Oscar wouldn’t dare to make that move if max or lewis were there

[timber oxide]

except leclerc, he knows leclerc gives 0 fucks about him

[shrewd flare]

That lap 1 divebomb was great

[raw plaza]

leclerc has been racing him since karting so leclerc is probably most familiar on how max drives

[small tiger]

sad he doesn't have a seat for next year. i like Franco. I AM GLAD to see him in Monza

[shrewd flare]

And this is why most leclerc and max fights are insanely great

[storm drum]

agreed

[timber oxide]

wanna get another inchident m8? - leclerc probably

ay wrong reply

ahhh

[small tiger]

lol

[shrewd flare]

Honestly wish Sainz wasn’t in that situation so colapinto could remain at Williams

[raw plaza]

and max respects both lando and leclerc he always congratulate them when they get poles/wins coz rn he is probably a role model to all drivers. Every driver wants to achieve what max Hamilton have been able to achieve

[storm drum]

yeah

[small tiger]

aUDI SHOULD TAKE FRANCO

[storm drum]

def world class act

[lethal bramble]

Highly likely Cola's joining Hulk at Sauber

[shrewd flare]

Wait, hear me out guys, VCARB makes Liam and colapinto 1v1, whoever wins gets seat👀

[storm drum]

Aint happening im afraid

[raw plaza]

lando said yday he looks up to them and is nothing compared to max or lewis and learns from their driving

[fringe vapor]

you missed the point where franco is not a red bull academy driver

[shrewd flare]

At least I’ll dream about it

[shrewd flare]

I mean, he could be bought out no?

[timber oxide]

it's his first title charge, even lewis failed. So if there is a next time he will do better i think

[storm drum]

i literally dreamt last night that like half the grid was taken out and danny was in p6

[fringe vapor]

i am not sure if that would be the case as they already have a too many drivers, not enough seats problem

[small tiger]

nice dream lol

[storm drum]

reality is rough

[shrewd flare]

Wasn’t it confirmed today that bottas was extending?

[storm drum]

i dont remember seeing anything about it

[lethal bramble]

I am not aware, lemme check

[hot tapir]

https://tenor.com/view/george-russel-63-gif-22403941

[small tiger]

unfortunate yes the rumours are serious

[raw plaza]

man there is a high possibility max might retire before 2030 will be so sad to see him go but still he will race in other forms of racing no doubt

Would Maxlerc be worse than Brocedes

[hot tapir]

britcedes>

[native breach]

Brocedes

[raw plaza]

max will probably leave f1 before Charles gets his first wdc 💀

[shrewd flare]

Hear me out, Lewis retires, max goes to Ferrari. Leclerc and max dominate till they die

[raw plaza]

Max will retire with Lewis

[timber oxide]

jos crying in dutch media every week because team does not gives his son priority

[lethal bramble]

I wonder if Max is ok with just equalling Seb's record or if he breaks Seb's record and then retires

[timber oxide]

the horror man

[small tiger]

where I have to sign

[shrewd flare]

It would be funny if max retired before Alonso 😂

[storm drum]

at this rate he actually might

[shrewd flare]

Exactly

[raw plaza]

Max doesn’t care abt all that winning his first wdc was more than enough for him acc to him the rest 2 were just bonuses

[small tiger]

unfortunate if Alonso retires, that means he is dead 😭

[shrewd flare]

Also, he’s just a rookie, he’s got many more years

[raw plaza]

he has already achieved everything he wanted to that’s why there are talks abt him retiring b4 2030

[lethal bramble]

Alonso retires, wins LeMans AGAIN, comes back AGAIN

[storm drum]

McLaren wants review of Red Bull/RB relationship after "peculiar" Ricciardo fastest lap
...

[jade mural]

Congrats @storm drum, you're now on lap 5

[terse rover]

max himself said he has interests in endurance racing so he might go there

[storm drum]

cant even enjoy a happy moment

[shrewd flare]

Is this no cap?

[vague trellis]

Yessss

[timber oxide]

yessss

[vague trellis]

Lando deserves that point

[storm drum]

yeah just posted in the media page

[fast fable]

Zak's not the brightest mind, is he?

[lethal bramble]

I mean lets be honest
it IS kinda awkward the way they technically have 4 drivers on the grid

[small tiger]

no

[raw plaza]

Yea racing is in his blood i bet next few weeks u will see him sim racing instead of enjoying break

[terse rover]

my argument is that if fia allowed red bull to have a second team in the first place using them like this is perfectly legal

[lethal bramble]

You don't see Ferrari and Haas doing things like that
Neither Merc and Williams

[timber oxide]

rb multi-propiety banned like mclaren's back wing

[lethal bramble]

This is also true

[raw plaza]

Zak being a whiny baby as usual are they gonna see if red bull communicated with rv?

[terse rover]

because they're only connected via engine supply and parts, not part of the same organisation like rb and red bull

[storm drum]

i feel like they wouldn't have had the time to communicate

[raw plaza]

bro has a feeling max will be p2 every race?

[shrewd flare]

We have literally seen team orders before of like yuki and riciardo being told to let max or checo through. To start “regulating” now seems like a joke

They know RB is Red Bull second team

[storm drum]

agreed

[timber oxide]

bye bye rb, hi handsome andretti

[shrewd flare]

If McLaren got an issue. Go build a second team

[lethal bramble]

Pagani in F1 ⁉️

[raw plaza]

They are not sister teams they are teams they deliver their engine too and they are allowed to have Ferrari driver academy in

Williams used to be a wcc contentious before

[terse rover]

that was a LONG time ago mate

[hushed olive]

Back in the 90s

[raw plaza]

I doubt FIA will do anything they perfectly knew that red bull sister team was totally under their control

[raw plaza]

But Williams is not 100% under control of merc

[storm drum]

if they do, it makes it just that much worse

[terse rover]

well they can't just randomly start regulating now, they knew redbull had a second team and did nothing about it

[raw plaza]

red bull program is very brutal with their sister team ofc it has been stagnant past few years

[timber oxide]

toto do your black magic

[raw plaza]

Ferrari had Alfa Romeo too before

[timber oxide]

answer the call of your people

[raw plaza]

as their sister team

[lethal bramble]

Y'all

If FIA makes a rule that teams can't buy engines from teams currently on the grid (for example Williams can't buy Merc engines but can either reach out to a company not on the grid eg Lambo or BMW, or make their own)
How do you think that would go

[terse rover]

they still have sauber via ferrari engine and parts supply

[terse rover]

that would make stuff a lot more expensive

[hushed olive]

But i dont think current sauber is considered a Ferrari b team anymore

[timber oxide]

sauber is now audi

[raw plaza]

Even if they review the rv team will they give fastest lap back to lando? I doubt lando wants a grand slam in a controversial manner

[terse rover]

they're undergoing audi transition so yeah

[lethal bramble]

Haas is now the B team

[raw plaza]

what engine audi using their own?

[timber oxide]

yu

[lethal bramble]

yep they'll be a full works team

[terse rover]

yes, audi will be a works team

[raw plaza]

apparently McLaren looking at red bull for their 26 engine

[terse rover]

red bull going to ford

rbpt ford

[lethal bramble]

So Mclaren looking at Ford

[jade mural]

Congrats @lethal bramble, you're now on lap 5

[timber oxide]

just let rb die and bring andretti in

[raw plaza]

they don’t believe in merc engines

[lethal bramble]

Red Bull may consider making their own engines in the 2030s

[timber oxide]

i don't believe anything in rb power trains

[terse rover]

i dont think red bull would sell so maybe haas
haas already shut down their nascar team anyway

[raw plaza]

They are having power trains in 26

[lethal bramble]

Thats in collab with Ford, not fully theirs

[raw plaza]

Probably one reason ppl think max might leave in 26 and join aston martin he has great trust in Honda

[terse rover]

it's technically their own rn with rbpt(red bull powertrains) but its still mostly just honda

[raw plaza]

and ofc Adrian newey is a big plus

[lethal bramble]

Who does Max love more
Newey or GP

[fringe vapor]

gp

[lethal bramble]

I remember once Max said he had to switch teams GP has to come with him

[raw plaza]

gp is probably the only one who can match maxs attitude

[timber oxide]

well gp is now a director in rb

[terse rover]

newey's designs won't be until full effect until late 2025 anyway

[raw plaza]

gp also makes sly comments back to max when max gets to angry

[timber oxide]

the team wanting him will need to open the wallet

[lethal bramble]

Does that mean gp isn't gonna be radio for Max in 25?

[terse rover]

he will be, he just has extended responsibilities

[timber oxide]

no, rb are planning for a weird restructuration of his responsabilities so he can still be max engineer

[lethal bramble]

because I think Bono got a promo that relieves him of radio responsibilities, not sure tho

[raw plaza]

I heard because Ferrari were pursuing him ( to be Lewis race engineer)red bull gave him a higher position to keep him

[timber oxide]

he will be the sporting director with two other dudes helping him

[raw plaza]

yea red bull knows max and gp are a perfect match

[timber oxide]

yu you need to give him at least the same position to lure him to move elsewhere

[raw plaza]

They are like brothers quarelling

[vague trellis]

I want a Australia GP action for Max

A such finish would be nice

[raw plaza]

Man bono should’ve gone with Lewis

[snow swan]

did you guys see that f1 official account reel with Danny? 🥲

[raw plaza]

if max didn’t have engine problems in Australia his lead would have around 70 rn

[timber oxide]

seems like there is clause where lewis can't bring anyone with himself if he leaves merciless omg

so bono is getting hostage

free my man

[raw plaza]

Maybe his merc paycheck is fat

[vague trellis]

2-1 Arsenal Vs City

[storm drum]

yep guess who cried 🤚

[timber oxide]

go spurrss

[terse rover]

well that also goes with lando, as we all know
"he could've won this , he could've won that"

[timber oxide]

smeows

[radiant hollow]

smeows

[vague trellis]

This year Lando

Next year Hamilton

The year after that Leclerc

[snow swan]

defo not us, we are just making sure our eyes dont get too dry

[raw plaza]

that would be ideal u never know

[terse rover]

maybe merc will nail 26 regs, but idts about hamilton next year

[vague trellis]

My hopes

[timber oxide]

it's leclerc year next year

[vague trellis]

I think Ferrari will do good after 26

[raw plaza]

Ferrari will somehow still end up being the 3rd fastest car somehow

even if red bull downfall

[snow swan]

Lewis knows something we dont
remember his transfer to Merc? exactly

[terse rover]

ferrari classic quote
"next year is our year"
man i wish 😭

[timber oxide]

ferrari have a new technical director too

[snow swan]

im not delulu im not delulu im not delulu

[vague trellis]

Newey To Ferrari would be nice

[timber oxide]

i have fallen into the madness

[vague trellis]

But it’s Aston now

[raw plaza]

My pred is merc and McLaren have the fastest car next year and Ferrari still end up as 3rd fastest

[terse rover]

all ferrari fans have

[raw plaza]

💀

[terse rover]

i almost fell in

[vague trellis]

McLaren n RedBull will fail I think

The first year at least with 26

[timber oxide]

seems like fred didn't want to disrupt the armony in the team rn, ferrari and ego civil wars are a classic

[terse rover]

but i switched to wec and well ferrari won lemans

no depression over there

[snow swan]

I have a feeling that 2026 will be aston vs ferrari

[timber oxide]

i believe in that man

[snow swan]

and hopefully ferrari doesnt pull 2022 🥹

[vague trellis]

Same

[raw plaza]

I was abt to become Ferrari fan but thank god I don’t need to have heart attacks at multiple races and happy in some other

[timber oxide]

two years of happiness

winning with 2% of fuel left is not for everyone 💅

[raw plaza]

If max joins aston martin with alonso and newey absolutely smashes the 26 car perfectly it’s Aston martin dominance im calling it

[timber oxide]

(i nearly had a pannic attack the last hour)

[snow swan]

but youre a redbull fan? wouldnt your heart go bum bum kaboom after drinking gazzilion cans?

[terse rover]

porsche still won manufacturer's but yeah overall ferrari did quite well

[snow swan]

I have a feeling that we might get a 2021 rematch then

[raw plaza]

I’m not a red bull fan I just like the sport

[timber oxide]

499P my beloved

[twin fox]

I AM ABSOLUTELY LOVIN MAX'S PRESS CONFERENCE ANSWERS 😂😂

[vague trellis]

Do they have qualifications in Lemans

[terse rover]

best looking hypercar

[timber oxide]

a beauty

[snow swan]

nah im joking ofc, assumed you are cus you have blue nick and this shade is redbull's on this server yk

[vague trellis]

Or they just go

[terse rover]

yes obv

[vague trellis]

Does the P1 usually win

Or do you have anyone

[snow swan]

AF Corse is also ferrari right? similar situation to Redbull and VCARB

or is my whole life a lie

[raw plaza]

I have multiple roles but yea Ferrari red bull and McLaren are probably my fav teams and max and Lewis and lando my fav drivers

[lethal bramble]

Whoever drives the max distance in a given amount of time wins

[raw plaza]

Yea I heard max Lewis and Charles might be in same team for Le Mans in future

If it happens 👀

[terse rover]

what a team that would be

[raw plaza]

Not Lewis I meant alonso

[terse rover]

alonso already won le mans

[raw plaza]

alonso is already a lemans winner

Would be a super team tho

[terse rover]

yeah two time winner

hes quite good

[timber oxide]

alonso still needs indianapolis

[terse rover]

he did race in indy

[raw plaza]

So good he’s still in his rookie year

[terse rover]

but not that great of a result

[terse rover]

alonso rookie of the year 2024

[raw plaza]

rookie of the decade

[snow swan]

bro so good he won rookienof the year in 1981

[terse rover]

rookie of the last 2 decades

[raw plaza]

If he wins indycar he will be the only driver I think to win in all formats

[snow swan]

4,3*

[raw plaza]

alonso type shi

[terse rover]

nah graham hill has the triple crown

[raw plaza]

Oh shi?

[snow swan]

nah there was one driver who also won le mans f1 and indianapolis

or somethting

[terse rover]

graham hill

[snow swan]

wait it was indy 500 right?
indianapolis was a track

[raw plaza]

damn didn’t know

[terse rover]

yeah indy 500 is the racetrack

[raw plaza]

anyway still a great achievement if alonso races and wins

[terse rover]

are you saying 2003 and 2004
cause michael schumacher won both those years

[raw plaza]

he is still very good even tho he isn’t in top 5 he is putting the car where it doesn’t belong rn

[snow swan]

nope he won in every year since 1981

[fast fable]

Do you think if McLaren lose WDC, Zak will continue crying about RBR / VCARB for the FL point loss, or lament the Hungary race?

[terse rover]

yeah, he is definitely extracting the most out of the car
although some part of it stroll just struggling

[snow swan]

btw did alonso win in monaco?

[distant leaf]

We won’t lose wdc

[terse rover]

most probably yeah, but he might not lament about hungary because pr

[hushed olive]

Yes i think in 2005

[snow swan]

driverz btw not constructors

[fast fable]

That's a very confident answer.

[lethal bramble]

not in 2005, Kimi won
but yes in 2006 and 2007

[distant leaf]

Oh lmao

[snow swan]

lando would need to get a more points on average than max

[terse rover]

yeah 9 points more than max per race

[snow swan]

7*

[lethal bramble]

its 9 now

[distant leaf]

Max would need at least one dnf

Which I doubt will happen

[snow swan]

331-279=52 52:7=7 something

so 8

unless f1 app is ducked and didnt upgrae drivers standings after todays race

[steel sapphire]

im watching the f1 academy rn and im pissing myself ts too funny 😭

[terse rover]

6 races left btw

[fast fable]

6 left... 💀

[terse rover]

so 9

[snow swan]

yea my bad

agonia 😔

[atomic topaz]

I don't understand how Daniels fastest lap has helped Max?? Could someone explain?

[fast fable]

Lando missed on the extra point.

[snow swan]

lando has less points so he needs to do more to catch up to him

[terse rover]

before daniel took away the fastest lap, lando had the fastest lap which he got an extra point from, so daniel got the fastest lap and made sure lando didn't get that point

[atomic topaz]

Right, I don't know why I didn't think of that lol 😅

[lethal bramble]

If Lando gets p1 every race and sprint + fastest lap, as long as Max wins P2 every race and sprint Max will win by one point, so yes it will matter

Has the WDC ever ended in a tie?

[terse rover]

nope

[next minnow]

Do you guys think Verstappen would lose the 1st place in standings after Singapore?

[terse rover]

but if it is a tie at abu dhabi lando will win on countback

[elfin edge]

wow

[snow swan]

depends, if Lando converted all his poles into wins then prob yea

[lethal bramble]

Lando has to be on his A game and Piastri too, only then can Lando win

[next minnow]

Lando is kind of the modern Hakkinnen nr

the whole mclaren team is definetly improving

[lethal bramble]

Nahh Piastri is

[next minnow]

compared to the last season

[lethal bramble]

This is the greatest McLaren have been since the 80s

[next minnow]

and the early 2010s

well

atleast sometimes in the early 2010s, some german dude named seb kinda took the spotlight lol

[terse rover]

and since 2008

[next minnow]

exactly

praying on ferraris domination from 2000-2004 🙏

[terse rover]

hakkinen was schumacher's greatest rival
i dont think lando is max's greatest rival

[hybrid cove]

Daniel Ricciardo!

[cosmic vapor]

leclerc finna win austin sprint and race

[next minnow]

daniel is my biggest rival somehow when i play f1 2012

[cosmic vapor]

yall aren’t ready

[dense token]

guys , daniel will leave ?

F1*

[next minnow]

i hope daniel gets a seat or atleast becomes a test driver

[dense token]

frll

[next minnow]

i love the guy

[dense token]

he give good vibe in the padock ngl

[cosmic vapor]

daniel should become a commentator

[terse rover]

he was in toro rosso then

[dense token]

guys am i cooked i just joined the F1 community and all my fav drover will leave F1 (i ididnt sas their primes..)

[snow swan]

wait there will be a sprint in Austin?

[next minnow]

imagine your favoruite f1 driver is in the same biological state of a vegetable

missing you, schumi

[terse rover]

yeah in like some australian tv channel

[storm drum]

That would be the best thing that ever happened

[lethal bramble]

Find new drivers to like

[snow swan]

my guuuy

[west yoke]

yes. now that mclaren has finally acknowledged lando is the #1 and in an actual championship fight, i see lando way more confident without the worry of having to look over his shoulder for oscar, and he is definitely more comfortable knowing the team is now 100% behind him on this charge

[lethal bramble]

Or treat F1 like most other sports and support a team instead of a driver

[west yoke]

lando will be champion

[lethal bramble]

Honestly at this point I want Lando to be champ
If Max gets WDC without winning any more races it will throw water on what has been a phenomenal season

[next minnow]

max just needs a better veichle, he could contiune his dominance

the man is on a tractor now

[terse rover]

we will remember the battle

for example 2012

[snow swan]

not really, its the process not destination

motivational aah quote

[terse rover]

that goes for everyone

[lethal bramble]

imo 2024 will be an even better season if someone else clinches the wdc from Max
it will still be a great season regardless

[narrow musk]

Norris come on

please

[snow swan]

CHARLES LECLERC!! LECLEEERC!!! LECLER!!!

[narrow musk]

oh man this delulu

[terse rover]

better season than?

[lethal bramble]

better season than 2024 if Max wins wdc

[snow swan]

duuh i have a ddl syndrom

depressed delulu loyal

every tifosi has it

[terse rover]

2024 will be a better season than 2024?

[cosmic vapor]

LECKERCKKKK

[terse rover]

yeah mate they're the same season

[narrow musk]

NORRIS

[cosmic vapor]

i’m telling you here’s what happens

[lethal bramble]

A 2024 where Max loses WDC at the last moment would be better than a 2024 where Max keeps his WDC in spite of how well the others do and the variety in winners

[narrow musk]

52 points is a lot for 6 races tbf....

[cosmic vapor]

leclerc dominates cota mexico and são paulo and then max car finally starts working and we get what 2022 should have been in terms of a title fight between leclerc and max but mclaren still win the wcc

[lethal bramble]

I think Max' car is already working

[snow swan]

Why were McLaren so fast for the first half of that race?

[cosmic vapor]

i mean like it gets onto the level of the other cars

[cosmic vapor]

it’s been a bloody rocket ship since miami

[snow swan]

What in the RB19 was I watching?

[snow swan]

would be perfect
perfect
down to the last minute details

[terse rover]

it won't be a better season
we'll just remember it more

[lethal bramble]

Wouldn't that make it a better season

[narrow musk]

Norris was literally lapping consistent 36s and 37s while verstappy was lapping 38s

mclaren rockethsip brrr

[terse rover]

they have had the fastest car for a while now
just not utilising it fully

[snow swan]

2 races this season with a minimum of 15-20 seconds difference between Norris and Max

[cosmic vapor]

leclerc about to win abu dhabi but max is in 3rd which is enough for him to equal the points and max has more wins so he would have won but leclerc puts all his qualifying effort into one fastest lap to take the title

[snow swan]

im curious what makes mclaren so dominant

[hushed olive]

2024 before Miami and 2024 after Miami are very Different seasons

[tepid latch]

So is Vcarb actually so incompetent that they are gonna drop Daniel after anal fucking him every weekend?

[sullen drift]

I just saw the Danny Ricciardo post race and man this is so heartbreaking

[snow swan]

and wins by one point

[snow swan]

absolutely real

[hushed olive]

Before Miami, 2024 was the part 2 of 2023

[sullen drift]

I'm actually fucked after watching that

I missed it after the race

[narrow musk]

NORRIS PLEASE

[snow swan]

im not even a big fan of him but that just hurts
seeing a man who always smiles cry 😔

[lethal bramble]

Nah this is 2008 pro max

[sullen drift]

I know right

[tepid latch]

I hope it’s not true but with helmet Marko being Christian’s daddy he wants a new rookie

[lethal bramble]

Also if they don't give Liam a seat now he becomes a free agent
hence why the pressure

[sullen drift]

Liam and Kimi both seem rushed decisions

[snow swan]

why cant they just sign him for 2025 man 😔

just sign a damn contract saying this

[sullen drift]

Bottas and Danny are both underrated

[terse rover]

christian wants daniel in the seat, marko doesn't
as for who has more power as of right now its horner
especially after Mateschitz's passing away

[tepid latch]

All this relies on there only being 1 seat. I do not understand why the conversation is between Daniel and Lawson not Lawson and Perez.

[snow swan]

does these 7ducking races matter? even less

[terse rover]

yeah they really want to keep him

[terse rover]

perez brings sponsorship money and merch money

[lethal bramble]

yea this is why

[snow swan]

and Daniel brings happiness

[tepid latch]

A team like Redbull should not be choosing sponsorship money over talent

[terse rover]

cash is cash
these big corporations don't care how much they have they want more

[snow swan]

f1 is a business unfourtunelly

[terse rover]

f1 exists mainly to advertise

[tepid latch]

They make more cash from winning than from Mexican sponsors

[lethal bramble]

Also there is a conspiracy that Red Bull are self-sabotaging to get more wind tunnel time

[tepid latch]

Most of that money goes to fixing Perez crashes anyway

[terse rover]

nope
losing wcc and being 2nd or 3rd won't cover it
perez brings telcel, claro, kitkat, etc he brings 9+ sponsors

[terse rover]

lmao yeah

[cosmic vapor]

yes

[terse rover]

that's unfortunate

[snow swan]

which would make sense

[tepid latch]

And what about the money they get from other things? You said F1 is basically advertising well there is only 1 team that can say they won the championship

[terse rover]

there's also a conspiracy that liberty media wanted perez to stay until mexican gp because otherwise ticket sales would go down the drain

[next minnow]

f1 gets the money from the advertisements and the sponsors, thats all i know

pretty basic

[tepid latch]

Huh

[next minnow]

also the tickets yeah

[terse rover]

thats for them to decide

[snow swan]

and streaming licenses

[next minnow]

i couldnt really explain the way i wanted to my bad

yeah that too

[terse rover]

true, depends on what they do but most people look at wdc not wcc so most effective advertisement is max winning wdc

[tepid latch]

I mean people definitely make the argument that Perez is not helping max with the championship

[terse rover]

for sure

[next minnow]

its not weird considering the fact that we oftenly see perez in P10-P15

[terse rover]

if it were up to me i would replace perez first not ricciardo but oh well

[vital pike]

Seems dumb to me that redbull is allowed to have a puppet team. Its 100% a loophole. I dont get it

[swift pecan]

Does anybody know what undercut is? I’m new to f1 and I watched the race this morning but I didn’t know what it meant

[terse rover]

its not a loophole if its allowed in the rules mate

if fia didn't say anything all these years then why would they say something now

[ruby cairn]

it's when you pit earlier than another car in order to get newer tires with more speed, so when they come out of the pits, you're already ahead

[swift pecan]

Ahh thank you

[fervent swift]

LANDO NORRIS has SURPASSED George Russell and Oscar Piastri in wins, equaling Carlos Sainz and having more win per race % than him

[cosmic vapor]

he won’t be getting close to leclerc 🤣

[high flare]

DR3 🥹 🫶

[worn cedar]

yo wtf happened

[sullen drift]

Daniel was visibly emotional

and almost cried during the post race interview

[dapper plover]

really does feel like the end of an era

even more than when he left mclaren

[worn cedar]

dang he actually looked so sad

[terse rover]

yeah

ik he isn't a great driver now

but he was at red bull

and that's what I'll miss

[dapper plover]

i miss red bull daniel

[vague trellis]

Why did Daniel even get sent before getting back to F1 (RB)

And people are saying he was “unlucky” someone pls elaborate

[cosmic vapor]

?

i dont understand what this means

[vague trellis]

He was sent out of F1

He was with no team before RB signed him

[cosmic vapor]

yeah cuz he was underperforming at mclaren

[vague trellis]

Ive heard he was ”unlucky”

[cosmic vapor]

with his moves yes

he moved from redbull to renault terrible choice redbull got good pretty much right after

renault to mclaren, which was good ig but mclaren was overall just not the right team

[vague trellis]

But it feels like he is bottas lvl

[cosmic vapor]

and he was kicked out of mclaren right before 2023, which was shit at the start but got strong

[vague trellis]

He got about the same stats as bottas

[cosmic vapor]

and now mclaren is really strong and going for championships

bottas was good

[vague trellis]

Yeah but now people want bottas gone

If bottas was to be kicked I think people would be glad

Rather now with Daniel people are sad

[cosmic vapor]

no they wont

[vague trellis]

That’s just what I found confusing

[cosmic vapor]

most would be sad bottas is a very loved driver

people dont want ricciardo gone cuz people like ricciardo

[summer anchor]

Bottas getting kicked out would be sad but it makes sense

he gets paid a huge amount for the size of the team and the points he brings in

[cosmic vapor]

we like ricciardo, however hes old and hes lowk underperforming (not like they have an old underperforming guy in the rbr seat but wtv)

[cosmic vapor]

you do have to consider the sauber being an absolute shitbox

bottas did pretty well in what 2022

[summer anchor]

right and for sauber to turn around their shitbox they could pay someone wayyyy less than $10 million and use the difference on the car

or just elsewhere on their budget

[cosmic vapor]

bottas will prob get a contract with lower money

[terse rover]

he scored 49 of the 55 points sauber scored that year

[cosmic vapor]

but bottas and hulkenberg would arguably be a formidable lineup

[cosmic vapor]

^^^ exactly

[terse rover]

as good as bottas is there are young talents who would just be better in that seat

like gabriel bortoleto

[vague trellis]

People were sad about bottas getting a extension today

[terse rover]

and bortoleto most likely will get that seat because he has backing from binotto (who is at audi) and mclaren

[cosmic vapor]

yeap

[vague trellis]

Or it was a rumor thing

[weary lance]

Watch Lewis win the next race at the diversity of wins currently

[cosmic vapor]

i think leclerc will

usually after lando wins a race leclerc wins one

[worn cedar]

who tf wants bottas gone

ur my opp if u want him gone

[vague trellis]

I can’t be arsed to scroll up now

[cosmic vapor]

see miami --> monaco, zandvoort -> monza

[vague trellis]

I don’t think they want him gone

But they don’t think he deserves a seat rn

[cosmic vapor]

i think cota, sao paulo, and mexico ferrari will be formidable

[vague trellis]

Which I lowkey argue on

He isn’t performing but it might also be the car so idk

[worn cedar]

he's in a sauber, why tf would you base ANYTHING on that

[vague trellis]

Bro I’ve heard arguments from both sides

I’m neutral, whatever makes sense I go with

I got a good argument on why it wasn’t only the car yesterday I think

Made much sense

[worn cedar]

I think he's fairly performing

[cosmic vapor]

the car is absolute shit 😭 gp3 ahh car

[worn cedar]

he deserves a midfield team like vcarb

not fuckin sauber

nobody deserves sauber

[cosmic vapor]

its becoming audi though

could be good

[worn cedar]

I wouldn't expect too much

midfield team at best in 2026

[snow swan]

blud forgot about imola

[cosmic vapor]

thats why i put 2 dashes between miami and monaco

and one dash between zadnvoort and monza

[snow swan]

ooh my bad

honestly all I want this year is Ferrari 2nd and Carlos win

It hurts that he will not drive for ferrari in 2025😓

[terse rover]

carlos won in australia

and if you're talking about career he's won thrice

[cosmic vapor]

ferrari 2nd in wcc is real

very real

[snow swan]

I know, silcerstone australia and singapore

[cosmic vapor]

my delusion is that wdc is still possibly in the play (im so brutally delusional)

[snow swan]

but like you know this last win

[snow swan]

spygate 2024 version

[terse rover]

most likely

[cosmic vapor]

opposite of 2007 🙏

[terse rover]

unless red bull resurgence somehow

[cosmic vapor]

lets build a mclaren

WAIT GUYS

[terse rover]

it almost been 6000 days since ferrari won wcc

over 6k for wdc

[snow swan]

btw can teams work on upragdes during these next few weeks?

[cosmic vapor]

its only 86 points from leclerc to verstappen

[cosmic vapor]

yes. i believe we have big improvements coming to cota, in the form of suspension upgrades and other minor improvements

[wet sequoia]

Yes, no mandatory 2 weeks shutdown during this break

[snow swan]

siuuu

[cosmic vapor]

apparently this package is supposed to be the size of the monza package or to that scale. we all know what that did

[wet sequoia]

Considering soon they’ll have Xmas/New Years breaks then resume off-season development everyone gets 4 weeks off from anything F1

THERES A 2024 ONE NOW

YAYYYYYYYYYY

this season boutta be 2007

[snow swan]

just watched full Danny's post race interview
Im feeling like its June 9th again

[storm wraith]

So we gotta wait a month? 😭

[vague trellis]

Yeah I think we will return with a big surprise

[wet sequoia]

Wait until you go 2 months after Abu Dhabi with no F1

[vague trellis]

You will see Alpine P1

[supple carbon]

So if max comes second and lando comes first then max will still win the champ

[wet sequoia]

Yes, but there are still sprint races

Which give points

[supple carbon]

Including the sprint

[vague trellis]

We have had like no sprint races this season

I remember like 2

[wet sequoia]

China, Miami? and eh

Some Euro race

[snow swan]

even more

[glacial jewel]

bruh i fell asleep during the race

[wet sequoia]

Austria

[snow swan]

Austria

[glacial jewel]

there was only 8 laps left

[icy haven]

They left the saw under the car and I commented this

[wet sequoia]

Well your about to have 3 more sprints

[regal needle]

Sprint is back Next Week in COTA

[amber ruin]

not next week

[remote knoll]

more like 4 weeks

[wet sequoia]

Next RAWE CEEK!

Enjoy the month long holiday away from this place

[storm wraith]

That’s too long 😭

[dapper plover]

we got this during quali yesterday

thank you sky f1

[hushed olive]

This race was arguably worse than monaco

[warm quail]

Not really

[stiff venture]

I wouldn’t go that far

[warm quail]

There was one overtake in Monaco iirc

[stiff venture]

By stroll

[warm quail]

Yea the most unexpected one as well

[stiff venture]

There is nothing worse that the Monaco parade. Now that leclerc has won it they should remove it

[vestal lintel]

Or make sprints and monnaco a spec races with smaller cars

[snow swan]

just make cars smaller

[hushed wadi]

2010 was a huge jump

[stiff venture]

Just get rid of it. It doesn’t even make f1 that much money. They paid the least of all the GPs of the year.

[hushed wadi]

compare the 2009 and 2010 cars

[rocky pumice]

me whenever ads randomly appear while watching the GP

chat im outta here see you all in 4 weeks when the next race starts

[vestal lintel]

They would still keep it as costs would be offset by money made from other races

[rocky pumice]

and also shrink the drivers?

[stiff venture]

They want to make money. I can foresee them getting rid of it soon if they don’t pay more

[vestal lintel]

Time will tell they may be willing to just offset cost to keep the historical one. People complain that it's in People would be un happy if it'd gone

[soft arch]

people want less street races too, monaco is a two-in-one

[snow swan]

front was a bit different, srivers were sitting way closer to the front point of car

[soft arch]

by that i mean it’s a boring race and street race

[rocky pumice]

fr?

[snow swan]

thats my guess

front looked a bit bulkier then

[rocky pumice]

Ya

[fervent swift]

right now 181 points are available for grabs so PEREZ IS OFFICIALLY OUT OF WDC CONTENTION

[fair roost]

Another solid race from Franco Colapinto.

[ripe goblet]

no way

[fervent swift]

yup

Perez can no longer win the WDC this year

[spare violet]

It’s unfortunate to see ricciardo leave ngl

[warm quail]

Make the tracks bigger

https://tenor.com/view/brain-big-brain-meme-gif-27667677

[manic sable]

Just get rid of hybrid PU

The smaller size will come along

[fervent swift]

Max Verstappen can win the WDC without winning an Race, heres how

He needs to finish P2 every race, including sprint.

Verstappen: 331+18+7+18+7+18+18+7+18+18 = 460 (in case if Verstappen finishes second in races, including 3 sprints)

Norris: 279+26+8+26+8+26+26+8+26+26 = 459 (in case if Lando wins 6 races and including 3 sprints.)

Original Text by: @snow swan
Fixed: Fastest Lap points were missing

[vague trellis]

If Lando wins every race and Max gets 2nd I’ll donate my whole bank account to charity organization

Only if God wills that will happen

[snow swan]

Dear god we have a month for the next race

[raw plaza]

but the script is scripting tho

[fathom sparrow]

Look at this... 👀

https://pin.it/3XRvzrkQr

[cosmic vapor]

monaco had lore

this race was just plain boring

imola type shit boring ahh races

[hushed wadi]

presumably being forced to

[cosmic vapor]

ok so lando is screwed cuz he aint winning allat

and redbull upgrades are big in cota apparently

[hushed wadi]

if daniel fucking ricciardo himself is hinting at it...

[stiff bough]

nobody seems to know anything at vcarb lmao

not even their team principal knows if this is his last race

[hushed olive]

Like bahrain and imola (until the last laps)

[hushed wadi]

yes even laurent mekies is uncertain

somehow

[cosmic vapor]

bahrain had some interest it was just so bad cuz we all were so done with max dominance

[hushed wadi]

i didn't watch the post race show did anyone catch anything noteworthy out of the interviews

[snow swan]

Wasn’t Mekies one of the worst Ferrari engineers?

[cosmic vapor]

leclerc taking the blame for quali (even though it was clearly ferraris fault)

ricciardo crying

thats pretty much i
