Lol only capable of reading the side of a story that best suits your imaginary narrative?

RB did the same to Merc

I’d love to see it. So tired of everyone being politically correct. Can’t show real emotion because of bullshit rules and sponsors.

I wanna see some elbows out and some FUCK YOU attitude on track.

That's the definition of pull quoting.

If he does win, it'd be deserved. He's a fast driver and is getting better and more mature as the days go. He's certainly learning a bit.

May the best driver win. We're going to be sitting on the edge of our chairs for these last 2 races. Funny I've always been an "underdog" type of guy, and I didn't happen to like Max as his behaviour is unsportsmanlike, and his supporters are just out of this world (and my feed!), and who would've thought I'm sitting here rooting for an underdog now that Max is the leader… it'd be a nice turn of tables if Lewis wins both and wins the WDC by 4 points…

Dunno, he tried it in Brazil in turn 4. It was either block or take each other out. It hurts HAM way more than him. The only reason they didn’t collide was because HAM was ready for it. I don’t think Max would do it necessarily on purpose, but heat of the moment/my WDC is gone as the silver arrow goes by again. Who knows at that point, can’t wait to find out and I hope it does come down to the last race winner take all.

Tit for tat.
We all know who the tit is.

Me too. And yeah, his style is not very likeable… he did it in Silverstone (but got the short end of the stick), Brazil, and might do it again just out of his style, you're correct.

Here's to 2 more good races!

Maybe then will the RBR twins see the true colours of their heroes.
If that happens.

No way in h e double hockey sticks that would ever happen. It would somehow be HAM/MB/Toto’s fault.

I think a collision is more likely than not if they are both fighting for the first corner. I could see neither of them conceding. I guess it depends on the Abu Dhabi track reconfiguration (done so to improve overtaking), perhaps leading in the first corner will not be as necessary.

A collision, even a blatant one, would not lead to Max getting banned from the sport. Michael Schumacher purposely turned into Jacques Villeneuve in the 1997 title deciding race and was stripped of his championship points for the year. Of course it was fortunate that he didn't take out JV (which would have won him the championship).

(Ignoring the infamous Senna/Prost collisions -- I don't recall either driver being punished).

I doubt it, they'll just be happy Ham got screwed.

and Alonso on post race interview was like..

Max got the fastest lap on new soft tires, while Ham had his old tires, which he can't switch because his gap to Max was only 6 seconds or so. He would have, if he could, to get the fastest lap, which considering his race pace, would be most likely faster than Max's so there was nothing weird about Max at all.

Both were nearly banned.
Have to remember Prost and Senna were team mates. Much less harsh penalties for those.

The main case is premeditation. If there's a plan, there's a ban.

Schumacher got his 2nd place in the WDC removed. So if Max were to do that, and it's blatant as these examples were, Max would lose the WDC.

Imagine both max and Lewis are removed from the WDC and Bottas wins. I would be real happy.

So would he lol
I like him too, and he's so fast (how many poles and wins has he got)… but he's just not a super driver like those 2. Take him over Checo any day of the week and twice on Sunday through!

It would be a great parting gift for vb before he goes to Alfa next year lol.

And Schumacher was convinced JV turned into him (per Ross Brawn) - his first reaction in Jerez was to get JV disqualified!

So what I saw as blatant, Brawn said it was instinctive and not pre-mediated.

“…. Before he goes to Alfa and remains in the bottom ten next year.”

There, now the statement is complete.

It's pretty simple : To beat MAX... A *Rocket engine in Warp-Speed is really required !

Yeah ...Let's hope to get more Japanese ponies ASAP !

And FIA had to basically outlaw the W11 so Max even had a chance.

[TheBingoBalls]

Since this thread turned to some foolery, I'm just going to add some more nonsense. If it ever got to a point, there are more "Mercedes" on the grid than there are Red Bull's. Imagine the f—kery! LMAO

Again trying to gaslight the w12's pu to make max seem like a super human driver. By your logic max was only good this year because the rb16b started off leagues ahead of everything else. So to beat Lewis you need to FIA to knee cap Mercedes, and redbull to make the fastest car on the field.

RB has alpha tauri as their grunt team and look how fast they are with old rb parts. Imagine if mercedes buys out williams and makes them their junior team and changes their design concept to a merc style car, then there would be 4 mercs blasting down the field.
