F1 2022 Season

So Kevin Magnussen in Hass had more pole position than Lewis Hamilton in 2022. And also Russell, second tier driver who came from the worst team on the grid, in his first season at Merc will beat him in the championship.
It's incredible to see such fall from the grace in the span of 1 year.

What a load of bollocks :lol:

He sacrificed the first half of the season, running extra sensors, running all the tests mercedes required in fp1 therefore compromising his race setup into fp2, fp3 and qually to help mercedes get over porposing issues.

He could have gotten pole in brasil at the last race were it not for russell having a moment and causing a red flag in qually.

As long as mercedes produce a trouble free car next season he will beat russell over the course of the season. He beat russell in qually 12-9 and is averaging somewhere around 0.1-0.3 quicker when he does. Which is similar to what schmacher, senna, prost did to their teammates and max is now doing to his. As Martin Bundle said today in qually, the greats somehow can go 0.1-0.3 quicker than their teammates and their teammates cant respond, its something innate in the great f1 talents over the eras.

Seriously? It's not about liking social media or not at all. It's about not tolerating the abusive and toxic messages people spout on there, especially against his family. That's what he's speaking out against. That and all the shite stirring lies and speculation from the media. He couldn't care less whether people like him or not.

When his father in-law has been racially abusive towards another driver and his mother spouts the toxic shite she did they can take what they get as far as I'm concerned.

Going off topic a bit but that's why everybody still has Senna down as the greatest. He was doing that when his teammate was Prost, 26 poles to Prost's four, including the ludicrous Monaco qualifying where he was 1.5 seconds ahead.

When has his father been racially abusive? Max himself has been outspoken against racism and has for example supported Hamilton on the matter. Perhaps you're confusing his father with his stepfather Nelson Piquet. But honestly I can't see why you and others on here would support people abusing someone and their family online just because you don't like them.

Sorry It was his father in-law. I will admit I was wrong. I remembered it wrongly.

Is there a link to that anywhere? Jos is a piece of shit but that one is news to me and I've had a google and can't find any evidence of it whatsoever.

I've just changed what I said it was Nelson Piquet I was talking about. His partners father. I know there is no excuse for getting that wrong.

He called Hamilton the N word. That's why he has been banned from RB pit.

Pretty sure you're confusing Jos Verstappen with Nelson Piquet (the father of Max's girlfriend) here. But anyway, that's not the issue here. Why do you and others on here support toxic cnuts who abuse Max's family (not just his parents, also his sister and his girlfriend) just because Max did something you dislike?

I have since admitted my error.

As for anybody who hasn't been toxic themselves like his brothers and sisters I wouldn't condone that. I don't condone it anyway but would say you reap what you sow. I would never abuse anybody on their personal feeds myself and I'm not a fan of doing it to others but people who are being toxic like his mother getting it toxicity back is to be expected. Twitter is toxic when you spout toxicity expect it back.

He is very close to finishing last out of all 6 drivers in top 3 cars. Safe to say he wasn't doing much "beating" to anybody this season.

Did you even watch this seazon in its entirety?

Sorry my mistake, you are right. He was actually beating others cars when he was crashing into them. Should be clearer. He wasn't beating anyone in terms of driving and scoring points.

well in that respect you are correct, but come on, there was reasons and the pole in a sprint was under extraordinary circumstances.
But this bit " It's incredible to see such fall from the grace in the span of 1 year. " is pure WUM

Ok looking at other stats. He will end the at best 5th in the championship equaling his worst result. If Sainz beats him it will be the worst in his career. It will be his first winless season.

all that in a car which was 3rd best on the grid way infront of 4th best car and arguably the car which was the fastest in last couple of races.
 
Hamilton complaining about purpoising this weekend is really just his spine getting old and nothing else, right? Other cars were literally undriveable in some corners watching them, purpoising on this track during the practice and qualifying was ridiculous for every car and other drivers hardly complained, but Hamilton thinks that's only Merc's problem and apparently that's why they were slow.

Now watch them tomorrow again being easily better than Ferrari.
 
Max really is obsessed with Lewis, his eyes are glued to the mirror, and watch his steering wheel as Lewis goes to overtake...

I think you're reading too much into it, seems fairly normal when drivers are queuing and every other race the gentlemen's agreement is broken though as can be seen the cars ahead didn't. Normally they try to cover each other throughout the lap but Max didn't move the car much as it seemed too late so Hamilton caught him out.

The drivers are always watching each other, they even get on the radio if they think the drivers around them have gone off track limits whilst racing around at 180mph.

I don't think either are obsessed they just happen to be two of the most talented driver's in their generation and therefore fierce competitors. They do need to give each other more respect on track though as they clearly race better amongst the other drivers.
 
Can we just appreciate the amount of love Vettel is getting this weekend. Rather lovely to see.
 
Todays race is probably going to be crap so let’s hope Vettel sees it through to cap a marvellous career.
 
Id love Seb to have a great final race

I wonder what he's going to do next? I'd love to see him doing some guest commentary or analysis like Rosberg used to I watched him on Top Gear when he drove the reasonably priced car and he was hilarious
 
Good F2 race earlier, another podium for Lawson, unlucky for Doohan who was leading the race and then had his wheel fall off after a pit stop.
