Wow, sounds like they've finally got the evidence to prove Ferrari cheated in 2007 and got their $100 mil back and the WCC, and Lewis gets his 8th WDC

he will die at the ripe old age of 73 after the live embalming process that is being an old russian man. While he may be buried in fertile soil his body will quickly render it sterile.

Especially given it clearly says Heikki on his shoulder. You really shouldn't have said anything because I assumed that was the joke.

For 2019 Mercedes managed to persuade the FIA to make tyres with less rubber in the tread, which were originally designed for high-wear circuits such as Silverstone, because less rubber = less heat, which meant that the Mercedes problem of overheating and blistering the rear tyres went away. Meanwhile, Ferrari and Red Bull were developing their cars to manage the original Pirellis with thicker treads, to keep the tread and carcass temperatures down.

So Mercedes got the tyres that they wanted, and everybody else had to redevelop their cars to manage the revised tyres.

Mercedes must be poo poo scared of Max if their visible to the naked eye straight line speed advantage isn't enough.
"waaaa he's almost keeping up with the DRS open!"
Maybe poois should focus on not losing out badly on anything that isn't a DRS pass he completes before the braking zone even starts.

This sport sometimes.

Turns out their carbon paper slipped half way through though.

Why would they be scared of Max because of Red Bull's rule fuckery? That's as dumb as saying they were afraid of Vettel because Ferrari were burning oil lmao

I think it would be one thing if Verstappen beat Lewis fair and square, I would be disappointed but would get over it eventually, I guess.

Losing points to this Red Bull, probably the most illegal car of all time, and to Verstappen's reckless Nascar-style "Widowmaker" overtaking is the opposite of that!

You're talking to someone that can't comprehend that the fastest car in a straight line might not be the fastest car over a lap distance and everything that that entails. It's honestly shocking we don't see more Haas and Williams Grand Prix wins considering how often they top the speed trap sheets.

Lewis is trying to preserve the bottom of the barrel integrity of F1 and Max is trying to turn F1 into an organization as corrupt as FIFA.

Thank you Lewis.
