@louisbosco his moves were pretty crazy, some of the most desperate moves ive seen from him, although i do agree that he's trying to push the limits of the existing rules...but its not just him.... Checo moving on Lawson was pretty unclean, and his lunge down the inside with absolutely no room shows that they need to work on more than just the outside line at apex too. Everybodys just driving super dirty.
-
@WhiskeySandwich red bull are desperate. the newey.exe is going to expire soon. but for max, it has always been his style of driving. so in a way, I'm not too surprised.
-
They’re all desperate. Max is making more mistakes than usual. More drivers are copying his style. Seems like RB is running out of pace at the same rate that Neweys upgrades expire. Pressure is on.
-
Max has always driven that way. Just didn’t have to when he had a much faster car.
Checo had immense pressure based on his underperformance for quite a while now and this being his home race, not to mention facing off against the guy who’s taking his seat next year.
-
I don’t disagree. But the pressure is on with the points coming down to the last bit of the season, everyone is going a bit nuts. Not to mention all the seat changes. Frantic antics

@Danimal506 dude I love when it comes down the wire for the championships! I like seeing someone different winning each race. Max had it pretty easy last year but he’s being tested much more this year and the level of competition is super high.

6 multi-race winners this season so far. That’s what I like. I wish the field had caught RBR faster so we would have a WDC as well as a WCC race but what a season.
-
@WhiskeySandwich Hell yea! This season has been great. Every race truly has been unpredictable. I wish I had more time to watch every minute of coverage. I watch with my 2.5 year old and he loves it!
I have a fun fact of having seen the winning driver of each race that I’ve been to, go on to become World Drivers’ Champion.
I saw Nico Rosberg win at Monza in 2016, Lewis Hamilton win at CotA in 2017 and Max Verstappen win at CotA in 2021. All became WDC that year. -
would be lovely seeing a drivers decider in Abu Dhabi. with that said, I hope next season will be exciting as I'll be heading back to Suzuka for Round 3. Hamilton in a Ferrari, will I be a convert.

@louisbosco That’s going to be awesome! Suzuka is one of the best racetracks

IHC-06
IHSW-70 L or XL

@Danimal506 Suzuka looks like it would be one of the most fun tracks to drive. Those the sweeps in sector one alone look so great watching the drivers go through.
Been out of the loop of this thread for a second, but man oh man these last couple of weekends have been wild. Watching Max and Lando go at it, and Ferrari just scooting on by. Max really has been doing the math, and doesn’t care about the penalties if it keeps Lando within range.
Hopefully, Leclerc makes it out of the formation lap in Brazil this weekend without a rouge flying tire bounding toward him.

@alexxedge I used to love driving Suzuka on Gran Turismo!
My buddy had a badass steering wheel setup.
We would all hang out, drink beers and set fastest laps in the F1 car against each other
Suzuka was always a fun one. The rhythm of the track while driving is just so good. Tsukuba was another fun one for quick laps in a Honda Civic or something. I gotta get a sim setup someday when my son is older. -
@Danimal506 that sounds like a damn good time.
-
@Danimal506 yeah definitely. Suzuka and Silverstone are one of my top rated circuits.
Was at S-curves last year and decided to book the stands overlooking turn 1-2-3 however we didn’t managed to get it so this year we’ll be at the end of turn 1-2
Last year

@louisbosco Great pictures! The view from there looks incredible
-
@Danimal506 thanks! It definitely was.
Fun fact: Suzuka is one of the cheapest Grand Prix to attend in terms of ticket prices. 3rd cheapest if I remember correctly
-
Qualifying has been absolute carnage this morning, and it’s still not over. So many mechanics are about to put in some serious work to get these cars ready for the GP.
