It was really bad of McLaren to give Norris second place. Pit stop errors are no reason for team orders. I hope Oscar wins the World Championship, he will because he is better.

It's a disgrace, they clearly prefer Lando because he's English. Zak almost cried last week when Oscar won and now this.

Oscar is a clown too, he should tell them to fuck off and continue with the race. Hope he still wins the championship but can't respect pussies like that. Verstappen/Schumacher would never do that, those are the real winners.

Yes but if he would do this they would not let him win the WC. But he is faster and more consistent than norris.

But if verstappen had this car he would now have 100 points more than these two. I think he is 0,3-0,5 faster than all other drivers

They are already trying to steal Oscar's title but the can't do it. He's got enough points advantage and is better than Lando anyway.

I'm not a RB fan but Verstappen is in a league of his own in the last decades.

I'm not a RB fan either, even though I'm Austrian, but Max is my favorite driver. But I'm always for Ferrari.

He should go to Ferrari some day, he's the only real successor of Schumi. Driving for a drinks company ad won't get him the legacy he deserves, he should go to a real legendary team.

Mercedes rumours are around the corner. I believe Max is heading that way. Or might not now that Horner is gone. I won't write off Red Bull Ford next year. They have a heritage and factory nonetheless.

Ferrari are the most popular team, absolutely no doubt. But in the last 15 years they failed with some of the best drivers on the grid - Alonso, Vettel, Raikkonen and now Hamilton. Carlos Sainz was waved off in place of Hamilton and the results are worse. Tbf I was expecting this, Hamilton is way too distracted by his own image/brand.

Max will probably go to Mercedes if he goes anywhere, I just said I'd love for him to join Ferrari instead.

Ferrari signing Hamilton was one of the biggest mistakes of Ferrari in recent times, hope he leaves after this season.

Sportingly, yes, but he brought them a lot of money through his attention. I don't think anyone thought he had a chance against Leclerc; Lewis is too old and won't be able to handle the cars after 2022.

Ferrari ONLY does mistakes in recent times... I'd stay clear if I was Max, they can't seem to not fuck up.
Anyway, Piastri will probably win the WDC - but in the exact same car Max outclasses Piastri, Norris and the rest of the current drivers. While Norris et al does photoshoots for Vogue or goes to fashion shows or designs clothes or whatever... Max in his "spare time" drives GT3 on Nurburgring or is up all night sim racing. They might have "similar" talents, but Max is thinking about improving his driving skills almost every wake hour. He almost is a little autistic'ish about driving, just like Messi was about football.

I don't know really by now. Piastri was pissed after the race (unusual) due to the incident with Lando at the start.

It was clear as a day McLaren were to reach this point with two drivers fighting for the championship. Papaya rules by now are simply "shut up and drive, we'll deal with your complaints after the race". This passive tactic never worked historically for team atmosphere. Prost left because he believed the team favored Senna. More recently Mercedes went through it with Rosberg vs. Hamilton and Nico retired after his triumph.

Now it develops in the same pattern - Piastri feels he's sabotaged. If weren't for the pit stop failure he could have landed in P3, front of Lando. And Lando's conservative approach is boring, you can leave him out of the highlights even when he's not P1.:lol:

Ferrari have had multi world champions in the last decade and half and managed to make them lose will to race. All ended up depressed.

Verstappen should think twice about joining Ferrari and I say that as a Ferrari fan. In fact Leclerc's agent is already talking with other teams for 2027 in case the team fuck up the new regulations.

There is a realistic chance that Ferrari's grid in 2027 is Bearman and some rookie.

Ferrari's issue have never been about Hamilton or some other drivers. It's been about them being fucking idiots and stuck in the same type of shitty Italian mentality that makes them think they're all Enzo's when Enzo would probably spit on their faces if he was alive for degrading his team like this and making it look like a clownshow every single year.
