You get that when you make the full lap. That was the lap of the century in how not to overdrive a car. It finally told him no.

100%. No glory for putting it in a wall. Especially on an avoidable mistake.

Maybe the rules changed on what is now a "great lap"

Agree'd Max seems to have fans who think his shite doesnt stink. Bottom line - he gave away pole and nearly took himself out of the race. Nice effort yes. Special no. He crashed. Like many others.

Can he win today. Yes he can. I respect his ability but he is hardly the first driver to 'live on the edge'. Comes with the job. Thats fkn special??????

Max is gifted and utterly teenage idiocy all in one for year. He is also on Mediums now. He will need to stop again. Dont see how he wont. LH on hard compound.

abm89 · 12-05-2021, 01:54 PM

Some piss-poor driving standards by Max today. I wouldn't have blamed Lewis if he punted him. Looking like a 90s Schumacher.

Spooler · 12-05-2021, 05:44 PM

What a chit show. At least they kinda did something with Max penalty wise. Lewis gave it back one time and they were on the radio warning the team with the quickness. WTH!!!!! A 2.5g braking with Lewis right behind him. Reminds me of a kid throwing a temper tantrum.

JARblue · 12-06-2021, 10:13 AM

Helluva race

Watched thru the 1st red flag before turning to football. Went back to watch the rest later and really enjoyed the shenanigans

At least it's winner take all for the last race. Max is a really good driver when he's not a complete idiot. In some other series back in the day I bet a number of this year's races would have ended with Lewis and Max fighting in the paddock lol

Or drivers in hospital. These idiots are taking safety for granted.

Max is gifted and forgets when things go his way (BRAZIL) then thinks ALL penalties are idiocy when they go against him. PATHETIC little troll.

Or dead

Crashing at 180 mph and walking away definitely changes your perspective. And not necessarily for the better.

Probably very lucky that this track employed the SAFER barriers rather than the traditional ARMCO. Several of those crashes could have been too close to the Grosjean incident for my liking.

Looks like a spectacular track to drive, but doesn't make for a great race.

abm89 · 12-06-2021, 02:09 PM

Yeah, the barrier design was top notch. Both Leclerc and Schumacher got away unscathed in their high speed accidents. The car didn't rebound into the track either.

It would make for an amazing time-attack event though.

Hotrodz · 12-06-2021, 04:32 PM

Well, stupid is as stupid does! Max keeps writing checks his azz can't cover. If you don't want to leave decision to the FIA then don't do chit to get them involved.

I can't believe how people are more interested in good hard racing with the understanding of the rules. Really, Max voted driver of the day?!?! How about Ocon, he did a great job and just missed out?!?! Well when it comes to public opinion, it just a popularity contest regardless of how badly one's favorite driver performs. Has Max matured? Yes, and it is obviously not enough. A total display of stereotypical millennial behavior. I want to be first daddy but Lewis won't let me. Tell him and the stewards that I am the champion and the best of all times! GTFO!!!
