As much as I would get a laugh out of the #blessed fans losing their collective minds, it seems ridiculous to strip him 15 years later.

That said, Massa must have legal advise to say he has a chance. I cant imagine it would be cheap to do.

Would be the most hollow victory since that night Fast Company punted me off at Monaco.

Günther Steiner has revealed that the damage caused by Mick Schumacher last season cost the team $2 million.

The crash during an in-lap at Suzuka alone cost $700,000.

"Nobody else managed to write off a car while they were driving back to the pits," said Steiner.

Yay
Go on Georgie!! :D

George Russell says his spat with Max Verstappen after they collided at last weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix sprint race was "all a little bit pathetic".

Verstappen swore at Russell as they argued in the pits after the incident.

"He has had his fair share of giving moves like that and being tough and hard at racing," Russell said on Thursday at the Miami Grand Prix.

"It's a little bit poor to see how he spat his dummy out when he got something back in the same regard."

The Mercedes driver added: "Something you learn as a kid is if you give something you've got to be prepared to take it as well."

He is right, Max complaining about others being aggressive is comical.

If I were a team boss I'd be getting the drivers to do a bit more of this needling. The best hope they have of stopping Max winning the championship this year is to mess with his head.

The only chance the others have is if Red Bull can't spent much on upgrades and wind tunnel time but I fear they're not going to find enough time before he'll be too far away to catch. And even a few 3rd and 4th places will still be enough.

Monaco is the only chance for anyone to beat Red Bull, just because of the qualifying lottery. If Ferrari can stick it on the front row then they have half a chance in the race. Otherwise Iike Kev said but it'll be Red Bull backing off development of this year's car to concentrate 100% on next year that let's the others get closer. So there's a chance of other teams winning one at the back end. It's a shame there isn't a better driver in the second car - at least we had Lewis/Nico during Mercs truly dominant years (2020 excepted).

The only positive to this is the #blessed army losing their minds.

I hate to think of what they will say if GR beats LH again this year.

I would love to see SP give MV a harder time. I just don't think he is good enough.

Peak F1, LH and MV in the same team :)

I wonder how many more races will start to be impacted by climate change moving forward? It's moving into interesting times.
