@davewillisporter – I’m not disagreeing with your larger hypothesis (that Max races Charles different than Lewis), because I haven’t looked into it. But as it applies to this specific race and the incident where […]

@davewillisporter
Although there is a chance Mercedes HPP are running conservatively to prove out their re-worked concept reliably.
Compared to Leclerc’s pole lap, Hamilton was matching his speed though with […]

@davewillisporter
The 2020, 2021 PU was dire!I was sure the general consensus was that as punishment for ‘allegedly’ violating the fuel flow regulations in 2019, they had to detune the ICE or run with less fuel […]

Amen @davewillisporter

@davewillisporter
As a Ferrari fan I can tell you that you can’t solve an understeery hard to drive car like this year’s Mercedes in one week. I’ve seen that sort of behaviour and how much time and effort it […]

@davewillisporter Not sure about a few races given all we’re hearing, but for sure it would be folly not to assume Mercedes will only get stronger and stronger during the season, but then there is no reason others […]

@davewillisporter Verstappen was fastest in Jeddah FP3 and even Perez was third though.

@davewillisporter
If he’d played the team game at McLaren instead of demanding number one status he may have won the 2008 title and may have stayed there instead of Button.
Play the team game? You must not be s […]

@davewillisporter
2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, 2012 McLaren. 2017 and 2018 Ferrari. 7 championship challenging cars he could have driven if his ego hadn’t stopped him.
Not 2011, Red Bull was fully dominant this s […]

@davewillisporter how many of those did Ferrari win?

By your logic Alonso should have been at Ferrari in times of Schumacher and just won all of those. Add to that Alonso should have also been at merc and he […]

@davewillisporter
You’re absolutely right, the hybrid rules draft come out first in 2007 before being finalized in 2011. That was sarcastic response to the claim that the floor rule changes were intended to halt […]

@davewillisporter That’s my feeling about this. It may be ‘smart’ but ultimately, as his career has shown, Alonso doesn’t do himself many favours (or make himself the right friends) with this kind of behaviour. […]

@davewillisporter No you’re guilty of what you accuse others of. Hamilton could well have gotten pole (thanks to a good car with good downforce level) in the wet but crashed and spun. That was nothing to do with […]

@davewillisporter Bless.. Is that how you indignantly reacted when people talked of Bennetton fixing the race Singapore 2004? Schumacher deliberately parking his car Monaco to spoil qualifying 2006? McLaren […]

@davewillisporter I was about to link the Motorsport.com post + two others just in case, but unneeded since @ckyriazis2006 already linked the former.

@davewillisporter Alfa Romeo doesn’t have the Ferrari status driver requirement anymore, which means keeping Gio isn’t a must, and neither is having Ilott or Shwartzman, etc. In other words, they’re entirely free […]

@davewillisporter
didn’t see Max trying to go round the outside of Copse on Leclerc!
Probably because he was never in a position to attack Charles without DRS because of Ferrari’s top speed?

Honestly, you […]

@davewillisporter if you answer narrow minds, you will get their minds narrower than before… dont waste your time… redbull only bring hypotethical situation to the table aka fabricated theory! not considering […]

@davewillisporter
You’ve wasted your time writing an entire essay on a false premise, the premise that other drivers don’t race Max hard.

At Silverstone 2019, Leclerc raced Max harder than anyone has raced Ham […]

@davewillisporter not that my view matters, but I think your idea has merits.

My only initial sticking point is that, if it were my team involved, I would basically run my cars at the back or retire them […]
