Max isn’t a fan of the Vegas ‘show’
“I don’t like all the things around it. I’m looking forward to trying to do the best I can, but I’m not looking forward to this.”
Max continued: “For me, you can all skip these kinds of things. It’s just standing up there, [you] look like a clown.” And when asked about the show vs sport balance, he said: “99% show. 1% sporting event.”

Ugh, I honestly don't know if I can cope with this vacuous bollocks.
Even the crowd noises seemed fake here. From photos it didn't look like there were more than a few hundred people in the stands.

Just read there is a hard stop at 4am so they can't extend the session any more anyway.
And the BBC have shown a photo of them starting a repair 15 minutes before the session is due to start. Surely that's not going to be safe...

The no support thing has to be a big part of the cause here

At the end of the race the podium drivers wont go to a cool down room, they will be taken by car to the bellagio for the post race interview and then taken back to the grid again for the podium ceremony.
That won't takes ages will it!
Glad I'm recording it. When the cars cross the line that's it for me!

Good to see Toto thinks there is nothing to see here with regards the Sainz incident.
I bet if one of his turds of a car had been wrecked he would be singing a different tune.

Ferrari appealed the penalty. All of the other teams agreed, except Mercedes because they're only 20pts ahead of Ferrari in the constructors. If all the teams had agreed then the stewards would have reconsidered the decision.
I also don't get why Max didn't get a penalty for deliberately blocking Ocon's flying lap. He even admitted he did it!
Verstappen angrily responded, “Yeah look, everyone was creating a gap. Suddenly, he came like a fool drifting between two cars. He was almost in the back of my car in turn 14. So I kept the gap to the others, and he tried f**cking me over in the last turn, to start his lap. I thought, ‘If you f**k me over, I will f**k you over too in turn 1.’ and that, of course, worked.”

I think the Max thing is fair, if you look Ocon overtook him the corner before wrecking both their laps..
I like what Max said after Qualy

You look at that stupidity and at the Sainz debacle and wonder why people get the shits.

Ok so that was better than I assume everyone expected... shows you that low grip plus tyres that you dont need to drive at 50% can make for great racing

Neither of them had started their lap yet. Max was slowing up to make a gap and Ocon decided to stop waiting around and went for his lap.
