Does anyone have the YouTube link for the two hour film on YouTube that showcased max vs lewis last season?

I have been watching it here and there but can't seem to find it by searching, or my history/liked videos. I think I had 30 minutes left.

Team strategy... made sense - if Alonso passed Ocon - and dropped him, then Bottas would have solo DRS on Ocon... and they would lose a position and points... but it backfired - as Alonso - held up by Ocon ends up having to defend harshly against Bottas to preserve team position - and loses (2) positions in the end.

I bet Alonso lights up the entire organization all week long. What does he possibly have to lose? He probably resembles Jaws from Moonraker every time he looks at anyone who made that decision.

Shame they penalised Fernie for weaving and 2 points is tough for starting on the front row but 'teammate' Ocon exacerbated the situation for Fernie also by blocking him.

Marko has warned the 18 could go even quicker if required which won't cheer up Binotto and push over excited journos to make up other stories of 'pressure on Max'
They have already started by saying Ferrari have advantage for the coming BGP without any conclusive data other than 'Ferrari go well at Silverstone'.

[yco]

considering previous races, Lewis' almost keeping up with leaders was promising.. i hope rest of the season Mercs can get better and better for some fun!

and.. Merc had warp-speed etc etc thus Lewis was winning only..
Sainz couldnt even ''attempt'' to overtake Max even with DRS.. but sure Max doesnt have the fastest car in corners, traction and the straights but he wins races.. amazing!

Max really showed his elite driving under pressure. One mistake and he was P2.

Canadian GP was a very respectable drive from Lewis as well.

He's the best driver out there - hands down.

He's a grrrrreat driver in the best car. Winning in F1 has always been and will always be incredibly dependent on the car.

Look at Vettel and Alonso this weekend in P1, P2 (Vettel outlier w/ wrong tires in P3)... when the Power/mechanical grip differential between them and RB/Ferrari was compromised with nasty conditions, those two closed the gap and drove lights-out.

Disagree.

Max has shown he's the best driver on the grid in shit cars and won a championship in a car that was a distant 2nd to the Mercedes from Brazil on.

Yes a car is important but you're giving too much credit to the car. From recent memory, Bottas is a great example of this.

Max = Future GOAT

Sainz: "I was the fastest man on the asphalt today, that gives confidence. But 2/3 tenths faster is not enough to pass Max in his Red Bull. Then you have to be at least half a second faster."

Can't help but think that if it was Charles in his position or if Max was behind Carlos that they would've sent one on the inside, ORRRR just got the over take done

Yep.

Carlos has a knack for this.

Verstappen een Jägermeister, 'alleen als ie ijs- en ijskoud is'.

Sainz lukewarm
Alonso destined for what could have been.
Russell played the team game.
Bottas fizzles again

LEC is driving tremendously well this year. Do not count him out.

Latifi needs a mercy cut.

Vettel has lost focus, needs to move on to bigger things.

Mag needs to stop running into Hamilton

Hamilton emotional timebomb diffused for another week.

Toto knew his influence in the paddock erodes, so he invested in FiA influence with immediate return of a well placed advisor. Changes are on the horizon to the regs to help Merc solve problems.

Side note.

When did Vettel go from "We need to bring back the fire breathing V10's"...to "The oceans are going to swallow our coastal cities"?

Used to be really ferocious with other drivers too. I'm pretty sure his testosterone is dropping to Lewis Hamilton levels.

Verstappen won the championship because Massi didn’t follow the rules.

Here we go again.

Max had 3 DNFs, more wins, twice as many pole positions in an inferior car.

Please go.

Terrific point.
