      You think he’s got what it takes in the right car to be WC?

      Not for me.

      Helmut Marko in another dog whistle racism scandal. Shock horror!

      Sweaty old c**t - can't stand him. His behaviour during the 2021 season and the dog whistle racism / slander that he goaded along with Jos Verstappen towards Hamilton was F***ing disgusting.

      A reprehensible character and a sh*t stain on F1.

      have the FIA clipped RedBulls wings. It appears the slimy toad Horner has been pushing beyond the limits of therules over wings and judging by the qualifying today they are now well off the pace with Max down in 11th place what a come down or comeuppence

      RB are very close on the ride height limits. This circuits means they have to run at a higher ride height, pushing them into a zone the other teams already operate in but RB don’t.

      Last weeks race as a real joy to watch.
      I wonder if the FIA will do something to break the dominance of a single team, like they have in the past...

      I'd be surprised if they even attempted to break the RB strangle hold, after all, they did F.all when MV got his 1st championship when the rules were clear not followed, when they did F.all when MV parked in the pit lane last week, and when he impeded another drivers fast lap in qualifying.

      I wish I could praise Red Bull in the way I held up Ferrari and Mercedes in years gone by as quality standard bearers, fully deserving of their success. But I just can't given that they are in all probability a load of right wing / racist cu*ts. They seem to be characters imported from 1930s /40s Europe. Horner the English aristocratic Nazi sympathising appeaser. Helmut Marko as the bureaucratic Gestapo stooge. As for Verstappen? Why, he'd be a perfect fit as an aspiring member of the Hitler Youth. Certified Reich Youth Leader.

      But congrats to them either way.

      It's a shame because I do recognise him as an  incredible taleny - ai love watching him race and (for good or bad) his style on track reminds me of Schumacher. Unlike Schumacher though, he can be utterly unprofessional in temperament and attitude off the track.

      I’m the same Frankly but the sad truth he wouldn’t give a fcuk about us such is his arrogance. Fcuk him, no plaudits from me even though I can’t argue with your thoughts.

      What thing? He's not a Red Bull employee. All he did was admit the bleeding obvious, that Perez is crap, even if he phrased it wrong.

      Everyone knows Perez is crap, one of the worst No. 2 drivers in a so called dominant car, in history. 180 points behind his teammate, with 6 races still remaining. Laughing stock.

      Was his public behaviour and accusation made against Coulthard at Spa, professional temperament?
      Was his declaration that he got "provisional pole position" after Friday practice at Suzuka, while fighting a losing battle that year, professional temperament?
      Was his deliberate attempt to ram raid Villeneuve off the year before and subsequent disqualification from the championship, professional temperament?

      The world's best racers have always had a win at all costs ruthlessness. So has Verstappen. It's not arrogance, it's total belief in their ability to win. They're not time wasters like Stroll who has no competition for his seat, and even in a car that breaches a budget cap, makes no impact whatsoever.

      Maybe read our posts a bit closer instead of making a fool of yourself...again. At least this time you didn't belittle the death of a construction worker like last time.

      And if you followed your own advice, you would have known it never happened.

      Your decision to focus on things I never said rather than answer what was said, will be taken as acceptance that regarding professionalism and temperament, basically all world champions are the same.

      While I don't doubt his calibre as a driver, the only reason he'd leave "his" team is if he feels Piastri is getting the upper hand.
      If he left on that basis it would be out of the frying pan and into the fire.

      He'd obviously back himself to perform in the Red Bull and it's abundantly clear now that they want him in the second car.

      Would be a silly move. I think McLaren are set ripe with Oscar and Lando. It will quickly become the ultimate driver pairing in the sport. With both drivers only getting better I genuinely feel there is a route back to the top for McLaren. With the experience of Stella leading the team and some great minds in their technical department I feel McLaren are for the first time pointing in the right direction on a driver front and technical one. Long term, there's nothing to suggest that moving away from McLaren is a good idea. And besides - it's his team as well.

      Their design philosophy is starting to reap rewards as well with that monumental upsurge in performance and form. James Key paid for failing to get the car ready in time but I'm sure he can be proud that the ideas he was a part of are bearing fruit.

      I don't know what would possess Norris to go to RB. He's arguably the one driver who can take Verstapoen in but I feel Lando going there would be a gullible move on his part and a successful mission by Max and Red Bull in neutralising his biggest rival. If I was Red Bull I'd also question why I'd bother with Lando. I'm a big fan of designated number 1 with support from a good but not too good number 2. I think Red Bull have that (though on recent form could do better than Perez). I'd want a good second driver and that's all. Keeping Max happy as lead driver would be imperative and if I was Horner I wouldn't do anything that could disrupt / make your number 1 slightly more uncomfortable.

      The heat related issues that drivers suffered on Sunday was quite severe and seems a bit of an oversight by F1 and the FIA particularly once the directive came from the FIA that tyres were only permitted to run for 18 laps max. Really showed just how extreme the sport can be.

      Reminds you of the era in the late 90s / 00s of the drivers going pedal to the metal doing 70 odd laps at rapid speed - smaller fuel tanks, tyres that didn't need to be conserved. Extreme times. I remember Alonso not making the Malaysian GP podium one year because of dehydration.
