We're half way through the race and leaders are lapping cars that are in the points. What a great era of formula 1.

...and what about the kick in the groin?
Just give the constructor and driver titles to Mercedes in the first round of the season so we can have a second, more fun championship among the people 40 seconds behind.

Does Albon have blackmail photos of Christians' little horner or something? Only thing that explains him still being in that team.

Just run one car. Saves money and effort for the same results.

Do you need to run 2 cars in F1? A bunch of these teams would do much better with 1 car, RB included

Edit: I guess constructors standing is a thing

It is understood Red Bull have had talks with drivers outside their driver pool, including Sergio Perez, and Horner said that would be the route they would take – rather than promoting an AlphaTauri driver – should they choose not to retain Albon.
And courtesy of https://www.formula1.com/en/f1-live-lite.html#lap-by-lap:

quote:

Christian Horner certainly implied that he needs to race hard and get some good results both here and in Imola next weekend to stand a chance of retaining that Red Bull drive. Perhaps more interestingly, it sounds like the team have been having talks with drivers outside of their own talent pool - with the likes of Perez and Nico Hulkenberg linked to the seat.

Yeah Mercedes trying to say something like "He needs to choose in advance".

Does anyone in the entire world think that if it were Max in front of him not Lewis they would still not let him have the tyres?
