I'm pretty sure that both Lewis and Max (including their team mates)will be read the riot act before the race, and told to keep it clean. I expect they will behave because I am sure no one wants to win the championship controversially at the end of the day.

I guess they warned the drivers of possible points deductions. Not really how I want to see a title played out if it comes to that.

If I were to bet I'd say no he wont. With the new warning from the FIA,,, points deduction could happen. I'm thinking that'll keep any first corner wipeout from happening,,, but I could be wrong.

I've watched several destruction derbies. I don't know that I'd call them racing. That said if "racing" is what they'd do I'm all for it.

I don't watch F1 but just chiming in to say I finally watched the movie, Rush, about Lauda and Hunt and it was a solid racing movie. Came into it not knowing anything about them really.

It's a good movie in general. Even my parents like it, and they don't even like racing. Or cars. And especially not motorcycles...

Yeah, it was really solid. TBH I'm not sure now which I like more between it and Ford vs. Ferrari.

Huge opportunity missed by not saying "Kimi, you will get the drink this time." .

The SENNA documentary is up there too with Rush. The first time I watched it, shed a few tears, the guy had a natural gift. The fact that even when Williams had a car with ABS, Active Suspension, and TCS, Senna was still able to get podium positions on a car that did not have as many of the aids the Williams vehicles had. From time to time I like to re-watch his footwork on the Honda NSX, ya know, the car he helped develop, which I highly recommend watching.
