Not really, MKSixer's argument that Hamilton didn't benefit from the best car, which resulted in most of those championships, is just crumbling.

Rus is faster than Ham. Ham isn't that good unless he has the absolute fastest car. If Max hadnt had damage and penalty he'd have beat them like he has ALL SEASON. Funny MB shows up 4 races after Max wins the WDC and after he sets a new points record and record for most wins in an F1 season.

But a section of the onboard radio was played where Max said something interesting.

So I don't really know what's going on here, but it seems to be a running discussion in the team.

Max not giving the position to Checo in the last lap is truly shocking.
6th place for Max is irrelevant why not help your loyal soldier Checo?

You couldn't even give PER points so he could try and secure P2 in drivers?

I don't want to hear excuses of being competitive. VER has absolutely nothing to gain - he couldn't let PER pass and help Red Bull secure 1-2 in everything.

with the "you" in your post: do you mean me or Max?
I don't think I understand your post.

There's nothing "funny". Perhaps Red Bull stopped any sort of development since they wrapped up both championships while Mercedes is still trying to improve what has been a failed car concept so it wouldn't be surprising why suddenly Mercedes has some new found pace.

Sorry, meant Max.

It makes no sense why Max wouldn't just let him pass. And the radio makes it even worse.

Agreed. RB seems like they stopped a while ago. I imagine they're focused on the new chassis and next year as they should be.

That said, given how far back Max was and how close he got it just shows how fast he is driving that car.

Too bad ..

The Mercs ? Yeah I said : It's the Mercedes resurrection !

Lets hope it was a one off because of crap Merc made track and all the world will cheer for Max/Checo at Abu Dhabi like last year which reminds me..why is Merc still using Bose I saw,Bose withdrew it after Wolff flipping out there.

In all fairness, Max also has Checo a lot to thank for in some specific races the last 2 years.

So we going to talk about VER's radio about not letting PER pass or we going to ignore and move on and not make a big deal out of it when we would criticize Mercedes or Ferrari if they did the same thing?

MAX got a 5 sec. penalty . This means that Checo will finish in front of MAX ..
(I'm not sure yet)

We'll see that soon enough and I just see It's Negative ..

Max served the 5 second penalty during his pit stop.

Wouldn't have made a difference, apparently smdh. Nevermind all the ways Max has been helped by Sergio

I wonder why Wolff wasn't present at Brazil ?

Too busy with the technical FIA information ...

Max served his penalty on one of his pit stops.

I think we can all make the assumption from the radio that VER will never give a position up which I think is a s--t attitude since both championships are already wrapped up for Red Bull.

Max showing his “character”. Meaningless race for him and refusing to let his teammate pass and securing points for P2 in the championship.

The pos was probably secretly with just that when no one is looking.

NYG · 11-13-2022, 03:29 PM

Quick thoughts:

Alonso was driver of the day.
Whether you like Max or not, that penalty was an embarrassment and a joke.
A bit upset that Max didn't let Checo get those points but I understand the mindset of a champion and he's not the first to do this.
Happy for Russel but he's still a massive cunt.

iamwingman · 11-13-2022, 03:35 PM

So Max gets a penalty. Ham doesn’t. And, apparently, neither does DannyRic? What in the fuck is happening.? And btw, douche move by Max regarding Perez.

Why would HAM get a penalty if the stewards deemed VER at fault?

Giving RIC a penalty wouldn't matter since he DNF anyway. Potentially gets points on license.
