Red bull have to be different or they'll just be beaten. An aggressive two stop will be nice. Pit Perez early, get the undercut on the mercs and then let Verstappen do his own pace.
By FortuneFaded Go To PostWill the Red Bull tyre gamble pay off?was thinking the same, needs to lead lap 1, but Lando also on reds behind Lewis
also the Max topspeed was mega
wing or Honda vtec
Did not see this one comming at all
Don't think a Merc tow would have made enough difference but don't know why they didn't try.
Wonder how bad that lock up from Max in Q2 will fuck him

not, think they always planned to start on the red tire, but maybe we will here in the interviews.

Full session
By KP Go To PostThis F2 race a disaster lolMy name Nissany, Roy Nissany
But start, t5 and than run on long straight, in to hard braking chicane will be fun tomorrow
Speedtraps do tell a story, RBR not enough wing and tire management probs tomorrow or Mercedes a bit to much and will we have another France, were they could not get Max in to the chicane and we get a 1 vs 2 stop strat race, or maybe reds will last long enough with enough pace for also 1 stop.
By recon_zero Go To Postboth are wonderful drivers. I support Lewis activism and Max is well growing as a person
for the sport would like for Max to win as he would have won in a worse car.
but if Lewis wins, it will be ok as well.
He will never admit that,’ Verstappen said when asked if he thinks Hamilton fears him.
‘At least I’m not afraid of him. Yeah, I think I’ll make him nervous if he sees me in his mirrors. He’s a different driver than me, less aggressive.
‘He doesn’t know how to race like I do. I can’t blame him for that either, because he was never able to learn that like I did from my father.’
^sounds like growth alright

It's a dumb af question and he handled it as well as he could. Glad it's not some safe by the numbers PR answer.
I welcome Max in this landscape of media trained sportspeople.
Max is a cunt.
Don’t want Hamilton to beat Schui’s record, but rather he be champ than Max.
I think Max is a dangerous driver. Just a matter of time before something nasty happens because of him.

By FortuneFaded Go To PostSo you are fine with all the dangerous stuff Schumi did?
He did it in a Ferrari.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostHe did it in a Ferrari.He did it in a Benetton and Mercedes too
By FortuneFaded Go To PostHe did it in a Benetton and Mercedes too
Another Italian owned team.
Now if he did it in a Jordan…
Normally I got a decent idea of how things stand after all the FP and Q laps, but just to many variables through out the weekend (long runs different tires, RBR faster in speedtraps in those longruns, Pirelli upping pressures, Merc slower with a mega rear-wing and RBR to start on softer tire.
Hope for clean start, for Lewis not the same that happened in the F2 race with the one guy (Doohan) on the harder compound (fight with guys on softs and crashed out) Max & Lewis after lap1 in p1/2 and then let them fight on track/tactical and the than the guy in the fastest car will probably win.
Enjoy the ride lads, just one more in a fantastic & crazy year

Just want no race changing incidents between max and Lewis. Can't handle the Internet if that happens.
Dont really care who wins. Epic season.

By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostIf both DNF, what happens? Max wins with most wins?Yes. That's why everyone is concerned he will pull a Senna.
By bud Go To Posttuning in for my first full f1 race in almost two decades, lads.
Welcome, who do you support?
By FortuneFaded Go To PostNorris to crash into the back of Max for the memes
Then Mick Schumacher to crash into Lewis to protect his dad’s legacy.
That didn't take long
looks like ok from Max, need replay
Late, but not over edge, curious to how they will see that, looks no pen eitherway from me
