So the season has started, basically just another Max day at the track.

Red Bull is where expected, 2024 in the bag unless major screw-ups..

Ferrari still fighting internally instead of putting the energy to combat the Max’s gang.

Alpine, Two developers quit a few weeks ago they must have known they had a pig.
(technical director and head of aero)

Merc looks to be on the right track .

McLaren needs just a little more power to be up there.

Sainz, doing some good self marketing for his next ride.

Any reliable Horny(er) news out? I want to read the suggestive Textos he sent.
The leaked google drive of 79 files I cannot open…

Curious what Merc’s true pace is.

Leclerc was his own undoing again.

There’s rumors that Max might be heading to Mercedes. Apparently Jos is behind it because of the recent investigation against Horner.

Although with new engines for both teams in the coming years a move to Merc would be the better gamble…
(HAM maybe has a different idea about Merc future potential )

Jos Verstappen has issues with Horner and throwing him under a bus was his vengeful plan all along?

If he can’t get that then his meeting with Toto over the weekend to get his son out of Red Bull is his plan B?

Jos does have recurrent controversies (many assaults) and this outburst involves the career of Max… Im not a fan of Jos.

This would put pressure on Max to declare his allegiance to either his dad or his $ucce$$ful career with the RB team.
Does he still need his fathers influence to figure out how to race?

If Red Bull is still seeing some increased sales out of this, Horner stays.
If it affects the bottom line negatively he’s out.

This behind the scene soap is getting more interesting than the racing itself!

Merc did show potential during the practice sessions.

Nah! It was a team effort. Charlie had overheating brake issues.

Got to love that Ferrari factor.

What a snooze fest of a race. The most interesting part is the 1 point contenders.

RB is in another league. That car is a missile.

Well, at least Sky Sports managed to show more of the mid pack battles this race. And how many brushed a wall a got away with it? Happenstance Lance lost by a glance. Not only did he break the left front suspension but the entire steering system. You could see via the onboard camera that he went full left lock and the right wheel stayed straight then turned out just before that sudden stop.

I'm really starting to regret my decision to boycott viewing F1 for the foreseeable future.

(just kidding!)

Logan cant be very happy his office chair has been taken from him this weekend .

Im starting to like Valtteri 's attitude about his image since leaving Merc.

I love F1.com articles sometimes. You can tell they just overhype the crap out of things. Ferrari looks good but we all know that the real pace in the RB is in the race. Damn thing is just so good on its tires.

Guess I get to eat my words on that one lol.

Carlos still the only driver to win in a non RB car in the last year yet not knowing where he is driving next year.
