Artemis how will you moderate from space this Saturday?

[M3WC]

Max at 9 wins.

Odds he breaks most wins in a season of 13?

8 races remaining.

I wouldn't bet against it at this point. Max has 2 new power units until the end of the season.

Lets hope that Toto and Mercedes stop with their silly political games and come to the conclusion that it's more important to focus on the problems you have than try and create problems for others...
All their effords in trying to bend the rules with arguments that their competition don't follow the rules have backfired, and now they still have an underperforming car that is unpredictable, whereas the competition seems to advance further and further.
That video makes that very clear.
It's almost comical how relaxed Horner reacts to everything Toto claims and the rulechanges that follow. As if he knows what makes his cars so good and what makes the Merc's so bad and everything Toto hints at....that isn't it

I also think it's funny how Binotto said that it was impossible what RB does with the budgetcap, whereas it's Mercedes that is constantly coming with newly developped parts. They've had 3? or 4? radically different floors now.
Next to the budgetcaps, you'd say that mercedes also has long gone through their allowed windtunnel and CFD testing time with all those parts changes.

Let me correct that for you.

Agree that Wolff is losing it and running out of excuses with his misaligned car that HAM never stops complaining about. It is nothing but a comedy show with that team and the way the 13 car looks with the blown out bottom is laughable.

In Dutch "Bloemendaal" means "Valley of flowers" ("bloemen = flowers and "daal"/"dal" is valley). In 1899, after being widened and paved, Bloomingdale Road was connected to and became an extension of Broadway. Undoubtedly, that's also where clothing giant Bloomingdale's got its name from.
