At that moment you belong to the top ~25 drivers in the world at that time.

Hell, even Stroll is somewhat gifted hehe

HAM wasnt that happy to get a pole in such a way but still its a pole.. Red Bull looks stronger than expected in that way that Max ll push hard at the start i believe.. i hope there wont be a crash involving HAM.. and yeah Ferrari.. mechanical issues are the part the of the game but double at the same time may not be only being unlucky though.. Vettel was already a hollow 4 times world champ.. there is not much room left to fall further maybe it can be a jump point for him.. and i really hope Ferrari wont waste Leclerc's career..

Lol are you kidding, Hamilton would get out of his car and do a choreographed celebration even if he was the only car setting a time

He’s a gifted driver but there’s no limit to his pretentiousness

There's literally been at least 1 mistake per race across all areas.

If it hasn’t happened yet, it won’t.

Ferrari and Haas are a disaster. I need a new team to support

I’ve been watching Lewis be Lewis for 10 years. One media session isn’t going to change anything

What you say about MAX will depend of his launch control . In the last 2 races his launch control was stuck in anti-stall mode . That's why we saw his car moving like in slowmotion and he lost 3-4 places .

3 AM here . And it rains already 15 hours non-stop after our heat wave from hell ...
The weather forecast (tomorrow) is currently at Hockenheim between 1-4 PM is 3.7 mm of rain .

Silverstone was the most entertaining GP I’ve watched in a while. Rain at Hock might make for another interesting race day

Being there....seeing there....enjoying there....in your own words:

NickyC · 07-27-2019, 11:25 PM

Thank goodness Max got that car going again and put it on P2. Doing that saved this race from no doubt being another complete snooze fest. Super amped to see Kimi do so well, would love for something weird to happen and get him back on the podium.

I'm starting to think Max is the best driver in the game now. I'd love to see him in a Merc and compare times with Hamilton.

Bartledoo · 07-28-2019, 12:57 AM

Praying for rain.

(Edit: sorry if saying "praying" offends anyone in the internet.)

86 pole positions deserve at least a bit of respect aside from the hatred really..

boing for Ferrari is not an everyday thing.. 13:25..

///M Power-Belgium · 07-28-2019, 10:17 AM

Wow ...wow ...wow ! What a mess ! Disaster in the rain for everyone !

Meanwhile MAX in the lead ...

msk340i · 07-28-2019, 10:54 AM

By far the best GP I've watched in my life! HAM running last and BOT crashing! Eye-gasm!!!

///M Power-Belgium · 07-28-2019, 11:08 AM

MAX the rain man !!! Yeaaaa....h !!!

E92inNC · 07-28-2019, 11:10 AM

And that, boys and girls, is why I love wet races

OG Shark · 07-28-2019, 11:15 AM

Wow - that was just plain bonkers!!!

Go Max!!!

Hell of a race. Maybe thy should start installing sprinklers at tracks.

msk340i · 07-28-2019, 11:25 AM

You CANNOT, after this race, say VET lost it. Not one single mistake through the whole race. Amazing driver. I hope he gets the car he deserves.

Robin_NL · 07-28-2019, 11:30 AM

The wetter the better:-)

Congrats Max!

Cheers
