I think Mercedes will be mega there again. Mexico, Brazil and Qatar however should be good for Max...even though Brazil is more a Mclaren track, Max is special there.
ESPN goes from F1 qualifying directly to DODGEBALL. ESPN 8, the Ocho! Your place for F1 and Dodgeball.
Uncle Max! My Lord he shredded them. McC's undies getting sweaty, the big boy's car is working again.
Well, they know they're losing F1 next year, so they don't need to keep that audience happy. Dodgeball they'll still have.
The story of the season is Max...win or lose the WDC...he has become what the 2025 WDC battle is all about.
and sign the global marketing jokester - lil' lewee!! think of the F1 audience retained! they can get lil' lewee to endorse their dodge balls and attire for the cut rate of $20 million wasted instead on the $100's SF burned!!! [and I bet lewee will throw in axe throwing quite cheaply]
Leclerc drove well and showed good poise after that spin. Hamilton drove pretty well also but is 40 years old.
It’s strange how much they struggled in the sprint qualifying and race, barely made it out of Q1 and qualified 3rd.
During some of the commentary on the F1tv app they speculated that Hadjar will replace Tsunoda with Max next year. Tsunoda would most likely had a better year staying at Racing Bulls. He basically got promoted out of F1.
Max is the chaos grenade needed to spice this title up. Win or lose, HE is the one making it interesting. Lando is a boring manchild that can do no wrong in Mclaren's eyes, Piastri, whatever is happening to him...kept to the Papaya rules for too long.
Now compare those times to 2024, MV 0.149secs slower, McL 0.471secs slower, SF 0.067secs faster, Merc 0.148secs faster. Seems like McL lost the most time in this session which kind of switched things around and gave a false grid. Verstapen through the Esses was mind numbingly quick.
