Looking forward to Lando winning it this year being mediocre.

Lando drives the fastest car with the best balance for the tires , but the McLaren pit and race strategy really s@cks...

MAx lost to Lewis and Russell and Oscar - These cars aren't so much faster that the gap is insurmountable.

Max had a major car advantage, and he starts losing as soon as there is a car slightly faster. MediocreMax incoming.

So apparently the cars etc can't leave the country after the race.
Uralkali is the company of Mazepin's dad...
Apparently a swiss court judged last june that Haas had to pay back about €9million in sponsorship money.

I wonder what will actually happen monday...

Yeah . Too bad for HAAS as you can see => https://www.nu.nl/formule-1/6325642/...aglegging.html

Could Gene's lawyer block the ruling as the country where Urikali is based is in a state of war.

Oh, I'm all good with fresh talent

I just don't see any French people or Alpine fans in here.
Do the French just not like BMWs

I've also never understood the rebranding from Renault to Alpine.

In the USA we don't have either but rumor is Alpine will soon bring electric cars here

Each driver must return two sets of tyres to Pirelli after FP1, another two sets after FP2 and two more after FP3. For the qualifying rounds and the race itself, there are seven sets in total.

LOL you're beyond two faced. Tell that to the guy who lost his 80-100 HP advantage when the cars have been closer than they ever have in F1 history and couldnt win a race for nearly 3 years because he flat out SUCKS when he has to actually use skill. Meanwhile Max has set records in the most competitive era of F1 that no one will ever break while not even having a major advantage on his car and only his driving made the difference.
As the numbers prove, Max's win rate is a good bit higher when his car hasnt been great and his win rate is much better when he's had a good car. Those numbers cannot be refuted.

Yeah, whatever.
Max is medicore and now that his car isn't 1 minute a lap quicker he's been losing races with equal machinery. Lando is a step below Carlos and he's still putting so much heat on Max, that he's reverted to Crashstappen.

Love seeing the meltdowns as Ham grabbed two wins in a car thats easily 3-4 fastest. If Max was in the Mercedes this year he would be worse than Russell and probably never even sniff the podium.

Wonder how this forum is going to cope when Lewis wins two more over Max

It'll cope, but Lewis has to fight the entire Merc set up to win, coz Merc are all in on Russell nowadays.

Maybe you can add that to your list of bragging rights if that happens

The real challenge for Hammy is next year....when he has to fight the Ferrari shenanigans

Alpine is a historic sportive sub brand from Renault.
Maybe Renault wants to form Alpine in some sort of a premium version of Renault, like for example Citroen did with DS.

[M5Rick]

Why don't they just call it Alpine-Renault like from the old days.

And I complain about Checo keeping his job. No wonder there are no Americans in F1.

Sarge
Scott Speed
Kyle Larson trash talking Max

Geez
