Anyone has a digital F1 journal (editable file)

[uncut juniper]

when is doohan coming back

[neat fern]

Never

[uncut juniper]

so is colapinto permanently driving for alpine now?

[neat fern]

For now yeah

[uncut juniper]

ok

[regal needle]

Never. Jackie remain a reserve driver

Franco will remain in his seat until the end of the season

[empty hornet]

Dead chat

[neat fern]

Real

[sudden bough]

i think its more

medium-slow speed corners

thats the main weakness of the redbull (that and tyre deg)

[neat fern]

Slowest track on the circuit

Speed wise

[quasi stag]

Why 2 more weeks

I'm crying

[neat fern]

Of joy

[quasi stag]

Nah I'm tweaking I'm not sleeping the day before school since that's race week

[copper saffron]

are the breaks only in the summer this long?

[quasi stag]

I think no
They usually do 2 race weeks in a row then 3 weeks break I think (ofc I might be wrong I have to check again

[quasi stag]

I just checked
It's not that regular but around 1-2 races in a row then 2-3 weeks break

[copper saffron]

ahhh

how is it in the summer now

[quasi stag]

Wdym

They're coming back at 29

If that's what ur asking

[copper saffron]

where is that

i thought they were coming back on the 31th

[quasi stag]

Netherlands?

[copper saffron]

yuhh

[quasi stag]

Oh technically yeah mb sorry

[copper saffron]

ahhh

do you count the practice days

[quasi stag]

Yes 29 is practice 30 is qualifying

Race is 31

[copper saffron]

rightttt

can't wait

[snow swan]

Could max clutch his home GP

[neat fern]

This is the summerbreak which is once a season

[neat fern]

For a podium maybe

[nimble basin]

i dont even remember last years dutch gp it was boring as fuck i think

no rain here means literally no racing

[neat fern]

Not really

[nimble basin]

the mid field battles were very good though im pretty sure

it was like gasly v alonso v magnussen or something for p9

[snow swan]

alonso is preparing to return to his prime rn

And max has a wife and a child waiting for him

[proven fable]

[sudden bough]

not much happened

other than some cool stuff in the midfield

norris won by 20 seconds and said "simply lovely huh"

[split bane]

Wasn't it like Sergeant's last race?

[sudden bough]

yes

[gray lintel]

Got bored so i made some Tier lists

[split bane]

I wouldn't say Max reached his full potential... Surely he isn't winning in RB anymore but maybe in 2027 he could dominate again if he joins a winning team

[sudden bough]

is this ranking of all the champions

[split bane]

I mean that if he could he would still do a lot

[sudden bough]

max is getting better and better

[split bane]

Yeah

[sudden bough]

its just that right now we arent seeing him win everything bc of the redbull slowly declining

i doubt hes winning another race this year

[split bane]

Maybe a wet race like Brazil last year

But Mclaren is dominant even there... let's see what happens

[sudden bough]

mclaren r still great in the wet

i think its bc of how much downforce their car has

[runic oasis]

i hope ferrari gets good placement

[humble valve]

keke rosberg more like wtf is going on

[gray lintel]

Yep

[gray lintel]

I doubt that he'll be an icon one day so i think this category fit him tbf

[gray lintel]

Keke more like

[split bane]

Nah he will be an icon for sure, just like Schumacher, maybe he will be less remembered but still he will be of them

[split bane]

.

[humble valve]

i dont know about jacques in one season wonder

hes also fighting hill in previous season but still mistakes were made

and then 1997 he made much more

[gloomy wharf]

Where’s Fangio on that list?

[humble valve]

up there

the up up

[gloomy wharf]

I found him. Thanks.

Who’s that “fraud?”

And nice work on the list.

[humble valve]

idk if i would put mika there

cuz he actually gave michael a good fight, and then theres eddie irvine🙂

[split bane]

@gray lintel Where would you put Norris or Piastri if one of them wins this year? If Norris win i would put him between "one season wonder" and "not much to say, they took theirs only chance so gg", if Piastri wins i would put him in "very underrated"... it is the only category he could be in for now even if he isn't really that much underrated

[brave ridge]

on a side note, some great commentary has come from Alex Jacques this year fr

"Now he sees the crowd rise to applaud him as the winner, Norris weathers the storm!" (🇦🇺)

"Hamilton will write a new chapter, and this time it's written in red" (🇨🇳 sprint)

"You are watching his emphatic response - for Piastri, the time is now!" (🇨🇳 GP)

"A champion of Formula 3, a champion of Formula 2, is the new championship leader in Formula 1" (🇸🇦)

"He hears the horns in the harbour heralding his win [...] Lando joins the legendary winners of this race" (🇲🇨)

"The resistance is complete, Piastri asked so many questions and Lando had the answers" (🇦🇹)

"A club started by Sir Stirling, headed by Sir Lewis, the crowd have risen for Lando Norris, in 2025, it's Norris' name on the trophy!" / "Get rid of that stat, and celebrate Nico Hülkenberg, 239 starts, and a podium finisher in Formula One at long, long last!" (both 🇬🇧)

[humble valve]

one season wonder if he actually does just win for one season you have to be so sure hes not getting a second one

[brave ridge]

if he wins 2025 and then for example mclaren completely fall off a cliff back to mchonda days in 26 then maybe he could be classed one season wonder, MAYBE

[humble valve]

what if he just goes to williams and then find them the long lost championship

[split bane]

He is struggling to win with the fastest car, i don't think he will be winning a wdc again (if he wins this year) as having a car like this and a season like this is very difficult

[humble valve]

the funny thing is its not just lando vs oscar

but also vettel vs webber too

vettel on lando and then ofc the aussies

[split bane]

Then it isn't like this car they have is dominant but not that much looking at other years... it's like one of the most dominant Mclarens ever made, obviously it is behind the MP4/4

[gray lintel]

Piquet, just can't stand neither the drivers and the human

[gray lintel]

Thanks

[gray lintel]

Norris is simply not a champion level i think i would create a new category " Thanks to the Rocketship " bc omg he's so mid and boring to watch like he truly doesn't deserve that car

[split bane]

That's so real

[gray lintel]

Piastri is way more impressive, he clearly doesn't have Mclaren's favor so he's kinda alone for the championship, if he manage to win a title in his 3rd season in F1 by being by far less backed by Mclaren then he straight go on a new category between Alonso and Mansell idk like " already in the legend " or something

For a driver who is in his 3rd season, being already better than Norris and way mord enjoyable to watch is incredible especialy when you know how much Mclaren prefer Norris, shame that Australia & Silverstone ( Undeserved pen btw ) happenned he would have a great spot to clutch the championship

[split bane]

Maybe a category like "The flying Aussie", it's cool even if he would be the only Aussie that won the WDC... but still he deserves a category like that, sooner or later there will be other Aussies that win some WDCs

[gray lintel]

He just need to be more ruthless with Norris & Mclaren and being more selfish

He can be one of the greatest but he gotta stop being so gentle sometimes imo

[humble valve]

carlos, and then daniel, and then bam, a real driver as your teammate, you get nervous now

[gloomy wharf]

Thanks. I’m used to his older-aged appearance.

[gray lintel]

Exactly

[humble valve]

7th year vs a 3rd year

another one of those mark webber 2010 situation

[sudden bough]

except its reversed

and now the aussie is the one cooking

[humble valve]

and without a ferrari on the way

[sudden bough]

still webber was leading the wdc in 2010 at the summer break

u never know what will happen to piastri and landos form for the rest of the year

[gray lintel]

Carlos dunked on him tho

[sudden bough]

theres 9 points in it

[sudden bough]

well
he destroyed ricciardo

carlos beat him which was not surprising

considering he had more experience

[humble valve]

two of his teammates used to work with renault

then piastri which is technically 3

[gray lintel]

I think Mika is good on top champ he's not really on the same level as the other above him

[humble valve]

1999 mika kinda fell

i think he had better in 2000 tho

[gray lintel]

Well basicaly he got 96 and 97 as top season but every others season after that are a compilation of disasterclass and ridiculous show

[humble valve]

98 could blame it on williams

but BAR was just

[gray lintel]

Horendous

[humble valve]

what the hell was he even driving for

and at one point flavio would take him to his team which is ridiculous

[gray lintel]

Frentzen was not even that far from a championship with a damn Jordan

[split bane]

It come up to my mind now, sometimes the rocketship isn't enough, just like last year in Singapore where he was leading with a huge gap and nearly finishing in the wall just by himself

[gray lintel]

Worst race of the season

[split bane]

Yeah, one of the worst

[humble valve]

frentzen was unlucky enough imo, if hes one year earlier into williams just like JV, he really could have it for the next year

not even close in the actual 1997, its just bcuz schumi got DQ

ended his career in a sauber was already good enough

could've been worse if he returned to jordan

[gray lintel]

I swear if he clutch 99 that's literally the greatest title of all time

[gritty rune]

https://medal.tv/games/roblox/clips/kS1y2dVQKWbsoEZxE?invite=cr-MSxrSk0sMjE2MTM5ODUw what´s gonna happen on next race fr

skip to second 13

[humble valve]

but y'know

its a goddamn jordan

[bronze grove]

What game is that? I need to play it

[twilit trench]

I think I'm the slowest person on earth, cause I just realized that not only will max no longer be no*1 and go back to 33 next year, but also wont be at the end of the 2026 intro.

Crash.net - Formula 1 (@crashnetformula1)

Will McLaren become the first F1 team to score over 1000 points in a single season? 🤔

If it has a perfect end to 2025 - 1-2 finishes in both the final ten grands prix and three sprints - a score of 1034 is possible 👀

i think they will end with about 900

• they ain't getting 1-2 at every race

We hope

[shrewd meteor]

Hi guys

[meager badge]

Worst case scenario

[gray lintel]

That's not an excuse, if he's here that means he's supposed to be ready, of course we do not expect him to catch Russell or the leader, but 64 points with this many Q1 Q2 elimination and poor pace is terrible, rookie or not

That's on Toto Kimi should have been in F3 and do more time in F2

[obtuse patrol]

Well at least Kimi aren't in RB seat

Can't the mods or the staff or someone in this server make Carlbot Sainz say who will win a race between Norris and Piastri, so when so meone ask who will win the bot will do our job and say casually who will win between them two

there was 20 packa of these

i didnt buy

because only team i want in there is mclarne

because i dont have any of the other lego sets

[fierce bolt]

it’s not about if it’s the same car, it’s about how difficult that car is to drive

yuki was a strong midfielder for vcarb/alphatauri for awhile

perez was also a very good midfielder before red bull

it sounds like the car is just genuinely a nightmare to handle

(#stophatinglandofornodamnreason)

Yeah Lando hate is so forced

[gloomy chasm]

He's my favourite driver rn,he has been racing since 2019,and if it wasn't for max he would have already won the 2024 world championship,he has been waiting for too long,he deserves this title in his hands...

[peak wave]

He stuck with McLaren through his junior career despite offers from other teams so if he won the title with them it would hit harder than if Oscar won it

😭

He was going to Q3 for sure...imagine how that would have been, he makes Q3 and outqualifies Gasly at his first proper race...surely they couldn't have, then. But then I remind myself that it had been decided before the season ever began. Jack could have won the first six races and nothing he did would be good enough

Money talks, unfortunately, and the Australian drivers have never had much backing from Australian companies. He could never have competed with a company the size of Mercado Libre

The karma has been sweet, however

[neat fern]

Wdym

[radiant pasture]

Colapinto has been no better, and arguably worse.

[south heron]

not his fault Alpine are so shitty towards their drivers but yeah he hasn't been much of an improvement

and it's looking like he's gonna get replaced as well

GG bozos

[radiant pasture]

I hope very much to see Jack in the car again this year. But the question will always be the money. I don't think it was coincidental for one second that Sky Italia reported that Jack would be back for Spa during the Silverstone weekend, and then all of a sudden a new Argentinian company was announced as a sponsor two days later and it did not happen.

[south heron]

oh, didn't hear of that

interesting

[radiant pasture]

There were quite a few murmurs going around that Jack was going to come back in. And then yeah, ont he Tuesday I think it was, just after silverstone, suddenly another Argentinian company.

[south heron]

yeesh

[sudden bough]

i guess doohans last full lap in f1 really will be the lego race in miami

[radiant pasture]

Did you see Alpine's post where they literally did a throw back to the lego race and cut Jack out of the video and pictures?

[south heron]

and in their godawful 2024 livery at that

a shame really

[neat fern]

Yeah alpine doesn’t care for their drivers tho

[sudden bough]

alpine should have stuck with smth like this livery

[south heron]

true

personally the current livery is a huge improvement though they really need to bring back the old shade of blue plus the shade of pink they use now looks so dull

matte paint I hate you forever 💔

[sudden bough]

or perhaps

the colgate car

[south heron]

even if you replace the red with the BWT pink it'd still look amazing

[south heron]

the nose sides being black kinda ruins the look though but otherwise it's a fantastic livery

[sudden bough]

is this fr

[south heron]

jeez that's so scummy

even Haas acknowledged Mick more in 2023

[sudden bough]

mick was given a proper chance compared to doohan

he got 2 full seasons

[south heron]

I suppose, though even then Steiner didn't treat him much better

[sudden bough]

doohan got 6 races

[south heron]

still at least he got 2 seasons

kinda wild though that some people claim de Vries didn't get a fair shot

[sudden bough]

de vries got his shot and fumbled it

sorta applies to mick

too

[south heron]

I do get where they're coming from ig but he really wasn't any good in the races he got

[sudden bough]

but de vries was worse

[south heron]

true but even then he showed quite a bit more potential

can't really say the same of de Vries

bro bagged his only 2 points at the one race where Williams was gonna do well anyway bc of the Merc power unit and Monza heavily favoring engine power

[sudden bough]

where did latifi finish in that race

i forgot

[south heron]

he replaced Albon for that race bc he had appendicitis

oh

13th I think?

[sudden bough]

typical latifi

[south heron]

oh 15th

[sudden bough]

why did 24 alpine have so many special liveries

[neat fern]

Damn this chat was NOT dead

[south heron]

bc their standard livery was ugly and shit

[snow swan]

Na, this year's is good

[south heron]

ok on the real their Deadpool & Wolverine livery was decent I suppose

[south heron]

was talking about last year, yeah their livery this year is great

[south heron]

yeah their all-pink livery was good too but idk I've never liked their fully pink liveries

[snow swan]

No one beats the VCARB livery

[south heron]

something's missing compared to the RP liveries

[south heron]

yeah it legit may be the best this year

[cyan saffron]

The pink ones were goated.

[south heron]

the McLaren livery gets so much hate now but in the future it'll be considered iconic

[cyan saffron]

This year's livery is mid.

[sudden bough]

i like the mclaren

[snow swan]

Maybe ferrari put a bigger HP logo bigger 🙄

[sudden bough]

this

[south heron]

ugh the HP hate is so forced

that blue logo fits the red pretty nicely

[snow swan]

Naaa

Total red or nothing

[south heron]

ok one thing I don't like is that the non-orange parts are carbon instead of actually black

but other than that I have no complaints

[sudden bough]

ferrari looked like this before hp

[snow swan]

Exactly

So sexy

[sudden bough]

they changed the livery after some early season upgrades

in 24

[south heron]

yeah

[sudden bough]

hp spam lol

[snow swan]

Upgrades 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[south heron]

I do like how it looked before but the HP logo does sit nice on it

[snow swan]

It's like pokemon evolution

Stage 1,2,3

[south heron]

call me crazy but I legitimately don't see how it's so abhorrent

[sudden bough]

ferrari nailed the shade of red in 2025
the white stripe w the hp looks a bit off tho

[cyan saffron]

I like it.

[south heron]

a bit yeah but it does look nice

wish the car could be as good

[cyan saffron]

The blue logo fits very well on white.

Especially with the HP letters in the logo being white as well.

[sudden bough]

2022 ferrari tho

[azure heath]

Would look better if it had Ferrari written on the wing

[azure heath]

And we thought this was bad

[radiant pasture]

Yeah it's fr, it's on both their Twitter and Instagram

Worse becuase you can hear Jack laughing in the video clip and they've cut it so awkwardly

Even Colapinto fans in the comments have been saying it's shit behaviour and well, if anyone knows shit behaviour it's Colapinto fans because they're the kings of it

[outer perch]

only thing id change is the sahde of red

one they used w the hp logos

but without the hp logos

[vagrant steeple]

who hates the mclaren livery 💔

[south heron]

idk a lot of the chatter at least during the reveals seemed tepid on it

I've always loved it, reminds me of the early 2000s Orange Arrows liveries

also the Marlboro McLaren liveries but with a more original twist

even the nu-Lotus liveries from 2011-15 weren't quite this original

[neat fern]

What livery?

[cedar garden]

which mclaren?

[south heron]

the current one

[neat fern]

No special?

[snow swan]

The chrome livery was pretty good

[south heron]

I was talking about the standard livery specifically

though yeah the chrome livery does look really good too

[neat fern]

25 Monaco wasn’t that hreat

[south heron]

I liked that livery as well

gave it a bit of a 70s flair

[neat fern]

It was decent

But the Numbers

[hushed olive]

leclerc in 2024

• silverstone p14
• spa p3
• hungary p4

  leclerc in 2025

What you think the upgrade was for

[potent hound]

[fast fable]

Probably a pale pink shade.
And white thrown into mix.

Hamilton on the podium is almost a stretch looking at his current form

but maybe he will have sainz 2023 season

and start cooking post-summer break

[modest vapor]

ok i believe u ricky i put my faith in u for hamilton to perform after summer break

[craggy zenith]

Honestly it's less because of Hamilton and more straight up because le car

i would have 90% more faith in Leclerc being on the podium yes

but that car straight up can't even do that

even the one chance he had to win a race, the car went full Italian on him

[sudden bough]

eh

ferrari is 2nd fastest when they don’t fuck anything up

i found it

[regal needle]

Back when uhh, Pierre Gasly had that water leak suspected in Sprint last week? I thought he almost not gonna start

But Alpine of course address it quickly

[neat fern]

Is he this bored

[winter scarab]

the first thing cadillac should avoid is jacques villenueve

[shrewd vessel]

the Haas Mick was driving in 2021 was absolute haascheeks

actually their 2020s as a whole was more miss than hits

they had a somewhat return to form in 2024 tho

[meager badge]

Mick would be great as Checo's teammate

[neat fern]

Love to see bottas tho

[meager badge]

Tbh yeah i would want to see that more

[radiant scarab]

Mick Bottas

[neat fern]

Checo tho

[echo urchin]

I think either Bottas/Checo and then Drugovich

[radiant scarab]

Alex Dunne to Caddy

Cadalex

[wet sequoia]

Drugovich will never drive full time in F1

[hushed olive]

Aston martin this season is either midfield leaders or haas 2021 reeincarnation

its so funny

[wet sequoia]

The only new drivers coming to the grid in the next few years are Lindblad, Camara and lesser chances Dunne and Fornaroli (If he wins F2)

Schumacher would only ever up in Alpine if they think he can be swapped from WEC back to F1

Bottas/Perez in Cadillac together would only be a 2 year short term thing MAX

[radiant scarab]

Max mentioned

[neat fern]

MY GOAT DINO?

[wet sequoia]

Nah, not if Camara absolutely blitzes F2, plus Ferrari still have Bearman in Haas

[neat fern]

Yeah but what if Leclerc and ham leave

[wet sequoia]

Leclerc unlikely next year, Hamilton won’t unless he’s booted

They still have Zhou on reserve (Who has actual F1 experience)

[neat fern]

Depends if the 26 car is shit then ham will def leave

And Leclerc maybe

[wet sequoia]

Contracts exist

[neat fern]

Or Leclerc should

[wet sequoia]

Where will they go?

[neat fern]

WHO?

[wet sequoia]

All the rumours point to Mercedes engines potentially being the best

[neat fern]

Ham Will probably retire then

And Leclerc no idea

[wet sequoia]

And none of the 3 Mercedes engine runners next year look to change drivers

[neat fern]

Maybe redbull if Max leaves

[wet sequoia]

Red Bull is to volatile as long as Marko can still speak for the team

[neat fern]

Better than Ferrari

[wet sequoia]

Plus being the 1st year they self-produce engines that is not really good grounds to go from Ferrari to Red Bull

IF Red Bull beat out Ferrari

[neat fern]

I’m not talking 26

27

If Ferrari is shit in 26

[wet sequoia]

By then he’d have done 3 years in F2

[neat fern]

Who?

[wet sequoia]

Your “goat” Dino

[neat fern]

He can still join another team

Or be reserve

1 year

[wet sequoia]

Yes because taking 3 years to win F2 (Or just racing that long in the series) is good racing credentials for entering F1

Example…Drugovich

[neat fern]

He never got a chance

[neat fern]

.

[wet sequoia]

At best he’ll be a development driver and racing for Ferrari in a different series

[wet sequoia]

Won’t happen

[neat fern]

You know that?

[wet sequoia]

It’s not what F1 teams are looking for these days

[neat fern]

Then what are they

[wet sequoia]

They want fast drivers with potential

Who actually have results to their name

[neat fern]

He did in f2 last year

This year shit var

Car

Or engine

[wet sequoia]

Last year you had 4 drivers graduate to F1

Dino was not in the talk among anyone

[neat fern]

He never had a chance to prove himself he wasn’t a full time f2 driver

[wet sequoia]

Your overselling Dino man, he has no chance

Best he can hope for is development driver

[neat fern]

Not saying he is but theres not 0% chance and he’s been very unlucky

And Ferrari seems happy with him

[wet sequoia]

In the sim

On the track he’s not exactly standing out highly

[neat fern]

Fp1s

[wet sequoia]

Yes because FP1 sessions say all

How many Ferrari academy drivers are in F2 (I literally don’t know and it’s Ferrari I don’t really care)

[neat fern]

...

and dino is the only one who has been doing fp1s

wonder why

[wet sequoia]

So he’s the only one?

[neat fern]

He’s the only one what

[wet sequoia]

Is Dino the only Ferrari academy driver in F2?

[neat fern]

No

[wet sequoia]

Who’s the other?

Cause I’m struggling to find someone

https://tenor.com/view/travis-neil-primrose-still-waiting-im-still-waiting-waiting-gif-27380282

I know Ferrari purged a lot of their reserves at the start of the year and the only driver actually available is Dino being the SINGULAR F2 Ferrari academy driver

[wet sequoia]

Best driver currently on the grid and possibly of all time (well know for sure in a few years when he's winning this 8th)

[hushed olive]

Only if the red bull is not shitbox like this year

[neat fern]

You really think Max will win 8 titles?

[neat fern]

Will be even worse next year

[snow swan]

U don't know

They smashed 2023 with some luck

[snow swan]

Why not

Max has 4 to his name at 28 and lewis only had one

So we don't know

[neat fern]

Redbull curse what happen with seb

[neat fern]

They didn’t make a whole new engine

[neat fern]

First of all he won’t be here that long and he won’t win this or next year maybe a 5th if hes lucky

But i doubt it

[radiant scarab]

A man can dream and I'll put money on his 8th before I'll put it on lewis' (although I'd be happy for both/either to get it)

Nah they ruined this year a while ago, it's not that they will ruin all the weekends, they have already done it

It was over the second since he joined the main team

But I still don't know why in F1 25 yuki is like prime Schumacher

[oak night]

what happened with ricciardo

Mclaren is not dominant in f1 25

Unlike irl

They still have the 2024 ratings

What's the highest constructors points ever scored

[hushed olive]

Red bull 2023 860

[snow swan]

I think McLaren could beat that

They r already at 566

[hushed olive]

But yeah in f1 25 mclaren is not dominant

Irl they are dominant

Looks like they screwed the car performances again

[snow swan]

In my last career season stroll got into McLaren and won 5 races and I was struggling in an alpine

If stroll can win then it is the best car

[hushed olive]

Mclaren 2025 is like Mercedes 2014

Both had 7 1-2s by round 14

In qualifying merc was more dominant tho

[split bane]

Yeah, it depends also on the track, in some circuits is impossible to arrive on the podium while in other the win is easy, then yeah at the beginning of the career Mclaren is strong but not so dominant like it is really

[split bane]

There was also a huge engine advantage in 2014 for Mercedes

[snow swan]

But honestly I don't like the engine sounds in F1 25

Unless ur at like 14k rpm

But for some reason the breaking point car sounds hellaaaa good

[unreal marlin]

too broke for a good pc or a wheel so i sadly cant get 25

i've been stuck at 22, the.. worst one

Talking about F1 22, am i the only one who had a weird graphical bug that was a tiny grey dot that slowly were expanding and making all the bodywork of the car completely transparent? (aside from the wheels and the suspensions)

They’ve done it the last 2 years

[neat fern]

Yeah merc was 2nd before Austria

Then lost it

And merc lost windtunnel time

Because of that

[sudden bough]

redbull were also in the mix in some races

for 2nd

[wet sequoia]

It’s not hard, Red Bull wanted Horner gone and destroyed their team in the 18 months process to evict him from his role

[wet sequoia]

Max was in the mix, not Red Bull

[sudden bough]

max verstappen racing*

[wet sequoia]

I’m hoping with Mekies in charge the base philosophy in the Red Bull car will change

And not be pushed to the extremes to suit Max’s style and be more balanced overall

[sudden bough]

tsunoda made q3 in spa

so maybe

[wet sequoia]

Then he got himself demolished in Hungary

[split bane]

It's more all Max's manager and people working for him as a pilot that wanted Horner out of Red-Bull, if Horner were not fired Max would have left the team

[split bane]

(Also Max wanted Horner out of the team obviously)

[wet sequoia]

It was the Austrian side that was uncomfortable with the power Horner amassed in his time in Red Bull

Especially since the one person keeping Horner and Red Bull higher ups split died

Horner helped win championships in Seb times = no issues

Horner led Red Bull in 2023 broke records = attempted coup in 2024

[split bane]

Let's see if this thing of the car "drivable just by Verstappen" will change with Mekies

[wet sequoia]

I suspect it will, Horner was very pro “You have to drive like Max and support Max at the front”

[snow swan]

shut up pls

[wet sequoia]

Meikes already pulled a one off in qualifying with Tsunoda, they have to find the consistency now

[wet sequoia]

Why?

[split bane]

It's also true that like this Red-Bull will have some tough seasons... it doesn't seem to be in their favour, could finish being a midfield team

[wet sequoia]

To many unknowns around the Red Bull/Ford engines

[split bane]

Just the fact that they are doing engines for the first time while just Ferrari is making engines from almost a century

[neat fern]

I meant the standings

[wet sequoia]

All the rumors point towards Mercedes engines being prime, Ferrari will be fast but at times all the teams have reliability issues

[sudden bough]

oh

yeah

merc were 2nd until austria

[wet sequoia]

Honda and Newey will have a high bar set

[split bane]

I don't like this reliability issue, is part of the sport but it's frustrating to lose races for reliability issues

[sudden bough]

mclaren in the first 10 races: 3 1-2 finishes

mclaren in the last 4 races: 4 1-2 finishes

[wet sequoia]

McLaren upgrades have worked, the other teams have mixed success

[split bane]

We aren't talking about the elephant in the room, Aramco

[wet sequoia]

Actually Aston had a shit car but good upgrades for the moment
