Not great for racing. Tbh have a bit of a concern these days. Good, fast tracks like here, Monza and Silverstone have become a bit dull and processional. Slightly worried that we’re going back to those days between Prost/Senna and the emergence of Hamilton when F1 was a bit shit for a few years livened only by Schumacher. No knee jerk needed at the moment but folk will get turned off if it continues too long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to the Toto interview and watching the start again sadly Bottas was dreadful. Could easily have moved left and Max could have exited turn 1 in 5th or 6th. He was obviously concentrating on where Lewis was and trying to prove himself. Understandable from his point of view being pissed off at being released but did the team no favours in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are asking so much of him without offering him a contract. Always a no.2 driver. Treated him like crap but still giving him team instructions.

Members Rudy Posted November 13, 2021 Members Share Posted November 13, 2021 All going off at the moment Lewis already got a grid penalty for an engine change Topped qualifying Car investigated said there was irregularities with the DRS part of the wing, too big and therefore increased the DRS gap increasing airflow When max got out of his car he touched Lewis’s wing. Both have been summoned to the stewards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s massive. If Merc have broken the rules they may have fucked Hamilton’s chances for the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s millimeters they are talking about they will argue as Rudy says that he has interfered and it is now a compromised investigation and if they win that argument verstappen should be bent over and pegged by Geri Horner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team have fucked him here. Unless he knew and still went with it. We all know how even a tiny adjustment can give the driver a massive advantage out on the track. merc are dicks.

Escobarp Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) Disqualified from qualy and that was the only fair decision. Rules are the rules. max needs to grow up though. He could have cost himself the race there being petulant. He’s talented enough and doesnt need nonsense to taint it.

Site Supporter Spider Posted November 13, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted November 13, 2021 Shame though because the race now just becomes a procession. They should want their two best drivers going wheel to wheel but someone at merc wants a fucking for letting that happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon Red Bull have assessed the data, told him, and he's been "encouraged" to go and have a look to publicly raise it. Naive at best 1 hour ago, Escobarp said: They wouldn’t do it on purpose.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 13, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted November 13, 2021 Bottas needs to take Max out on the first lap. Sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 Good drive that by Bottas but fucking hell that was some drive by Lewis Only problem he has is that midfield start. You just know that there’ll be issues in the first few corners. Stays out of trouble though and he’s genuinely got a chance of winning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure. And yes I think bottas holds off max and wins the race if Lewis doesn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
