@willwood the NFL is very different. Having called the US home for the last 3 NFL seasons it’s basically impossible to avoid, 3 of the 4 main networks have games every Sunday (and ABC via ESPN has the Monday night […]

I disagree. @keithcollaine you’re making the argument that across the season Max is deserving.

Max’s driving in Brazil wasn’t punished, which led to his driving in Saudi. Of course he has the right to complain […]

Nice try hyoko, but considering one of your posts about Lewis was deleted recently for being extremely offensive, forgive me for choosing to interpret this comment as biased.

Tony, Masi clearly changed the interpretation of 48.12 to suit a last lap green flag race. And Lewis was pinned in regardless, as had he pitted Max would have stayed out and who knows whether the race would have […]

Interesting take Alan. Though I can’t see anyone called Alan make a comment on that article, so I can’t prove if you posted at all or under a different username.

And it suggests my suspicions about you are […]

@andyfromsandy the argument is that it would be a nice backdoor way for another powertrain OEM to enter by buying Red Bull’s powertrain division and taking the development from them. Racer.com detailed that […]

Lewis would have won if race control didn’t change the rules mid-race. So they would have had a good case if it had gone to CAS.

Ruben, Assuming you’re talking about lap 1 on Sunday. We must have been watching different races though, “neatly made the corner” is an interesting description of missing the apex and nearly running wide on the […]

Bernie suggested sprinklers years ago, maybe in the late 2000s.

Even if it had been a fair fight, 2008 still tops it for me. Mainly because Lewis only moved into championship winning position after Massa had crossed the line. But also because there weren’t as many races. 22 is […]

It’s the argument of “any publicity is good publicity” vs “no publicity is bad publicity”. Which shouldn’t be the case.

I’m very much on the fence on F1 but considering I’m now US based, I’ll probably stick to […]

@hahostolze the examples you cite are the result of poor driving, cheating, manipulation on a teams part, changes in equipment, drivers choosing a specific path or unforseen circumstances out of officiating’s […]

Nice try, but someone did respond with a good counter.

Either way, I will not recognise Max as the champion for 2021. Should Lewis fail to win any more championships, Max will need 9 to overtake in my book.

No. Finish under green “when possible” is what was said. It wasn’t possible under the rules based on the decision to let lapped cars pass. It should have finished under yellow.

Have to agree. It’s borderline insulting that the FIA have posted this. And it couldn’t be more tone-deaf.

Now left hoping that Mercedes take the FIA to the cleaners.

Alan Dove’s has kept spamming the same comment on multiple articles. He might be right but I read a counter to that earlier today on this website in the comments that actually makes more sense than what he was […]

Nice try. On this side of the pond US media is certainly not convinced that Max is the rightful champion.

…and by some, as a champion on paper only. I’m sure I’m not the only person who won’t accept Max as the rightful 2021 champion regardless of how this plays out.

You do realise that if Mercedes walk away, they could take away the engines too… leaving 6 teams on the grid and 12 cars. I can’t remember the exact numbers (maybe 18 cars?) but I’m sure that’s less that the […]

Lewis did complete 58 laps. Pretty sure that you can prove his car would run the distance.
