Also if Max to Mercedes rumors are true, could be an amazing Summer break.

I would also like to add, AM had a strategy masterclass with Lance, P4! (...go canada..)
Yeah, he "Lanced" his chance at a great result by just doing his normal thing and screwing up the good things that daddy Stroll gives him. He was passed multiple times going from as high as 3rd to finishing in 7th. A masterclass by Lance.

tbf just overly optimistic tire strategy by going on the soft. Yes he cleared his way thru the field but then likely burned them out by the end of the race.

Either the Max to Mercedes smoke was too real, or that there are Horndong pics that are gonna be leaked.

Didn't I hear that Red Bull's poor results in Silverstone triggered the threshold where Max could enact his exit clause?
But I mean, I don't know why they would use immediate termination in that situation and not just let him run out the season. If Max is already lost, then what do they have to gain by also immediately firing Horner?

There was a lot, losing key team members over the scandal as well, obvious unanswered issues with the car, burning through drivers, tbf Helmut should go as well.

If you watch S1 of Drive to Survive on Netflix, it should give you a little bit of info on the teams and principals. But yeah, it surprised me too!

my feeling on the Horner thing is that the ownership are making a desperate attempt to appease the Verstappen camp by giving them something they (moreso Jos) have been after for a while. It reeks of desperation and I don't think it will work out in the long run.

Bought tickets from https://ticket.mobilitystation.jp/
there's also https://www.suzukacircuit.jp/eng/f1/ for information

Friend that bought early last year had to use a vpn (she bought hers around oct)
i bought mine in November and didnt have to use a vpn


if i remember correctly if you click through the website of ticket purchase through the suzuka website, itll direct you to the mobility station website

Fuck looks like a crazy race from the highlights, Ferrari still being Ferrari, Max’s overtakes at speed were insane as well as Oscar against Charles on the the outside of that corner, fuck crazy

Race was pretty boring in general. But the Ferrari fuckups are just unreal at this point, Charles needs to leave.

I don't know what it is, I know it's a close championship battle like we always wanted, but at the same time it's very uninteresting this year.

Like, Hamilton/Rosberg in the mid 2014-2016 was so much better somehow.

I guess because Mercedes let them actually race a bit harder and they had a few "take each other out moments", I dunno.

Word on the street is that Ferrari still hasn't resolved the plank wear issues so after the last stop they had to raise the car with tire pressures and get Charles to do lots of lift and coast. Lewis was told starting lap 3 to lift and coast so my guess is his setup was already compromised in qualifying.

Yeah, it's pretty boring stuff between Oscar and Lando. I don't consider either to be an elite tier driver (Max, Charles, George) so there's not going to be crazy feats of excellence that happen (say Lewis' Singapore qualifying lap) and both seem to get along with the other.

I liked the 2021 war between Max and Lewis a lot better (except for the bullshit ending).

Well yeah, close championships between drivers on separate teams is always better. There's never going to be any team order crap.

'07, '08, '10, '12 were great seasons in that regard as well.
