Nobody thinks that. I think Max sets out to win the race fair and square. But I also think that Max will race too aggressively to keep his position and is willing to put himself in a position where he will cause a collision rather than be overtaken. I don’t know why people are still finding it hard to see that he’s like this. He has always raced like this in F1 He’s a fantastic talent and he’s almost certainly a future world champion. But he’s also a petulant word removed and his driving too often crosses the line of “daring and exciting” into “stupid and dangerous” 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Max is going to seriously hurt someone at some point. Petulant, dangerous prick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever is ahead takes it unless there’s a crash taking them both out which benefits Max. which was the original point.

mykeyb Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Well the race was crap with the only saving grace of the two red flags was being able to watch the 2nd half of the football. I am torn on street circuits because I like Singapore but the circuit today and others like Monaco are not fit for purpose for modern day racing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's cus he deserves them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricciardo was having to basically drive to avoid Max. I was shocked it took so long for them to collide 3 minutes ago, Jimzk5 said: It's cus he deserves them If anything he got off lightly today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 I have to watch F1 with Dutch commentary. It's erm, special in that it is utterly clueless. They seem to have worked out Lewis is the better driver so when Max cheats he is being clever, then they don't understand the penalties against Max yesterday and think its fixed. They see nothing wrong in anything Max does. They were waiting for a fastest lap from Max yesterday once he had managed to damage Lewis's car but it didn't happen. Max will do anythng to win including putting peoples lives at risk. That's the difference between the 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichfield Dean Posted December 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2021 Race control had a bit of a mare didn't they? Particularly that strange offer of the alternate lineup on the restart where they seem to have totally forgotten about Ocon being between Max and Lewis when the race was stopped.

Genie Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 In hindsight they should have told Lewis first that they were going to tell Max to give the place back, then told Max to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure they told Max first officially. The radio message to max was something like "Let's give that place back" or something. I think they decided themselves to give it back but I could be wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
