Max won by 14s from Bottas last year with Lewis 3rd. WDC is all but over with that kind of gap. Congrats Max; he should win on merit and pure pace.

Last year wasn’t a good comparison. Merc wrapped up the championships and was testing 2021 bits.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Amazing lap by Max. Matching Lewis in S3 on a low downforce setup was phenomenal.
This strategy will be interesting. All depends on how long rbr can make those softs last. Remember that these are the softest pirellis available, and really only used in Monaco this year. They wear out FAST.
I don’t remember any race where starting the race on softs worked out. You put yourself way behind overall either with an extra stop, or needing hards to go longer and losing pace compared to starting on mediums. You see the mid fielders do it all the time and they always get fucked. Pitting early on softs puts medium competitors in a safety car or vsc freebie pit windows. It’s a massive gamble.
Anyways, Lando P3, max and Lewis do their shit take each other out, cue rocket red jerseys. Let’s gooooooooooo.

I don't think they wanted to start on softs...
What was the deal with the Honda engines?
Are they up on power compared to earlier in the season?

I know Mercedes has the newer engine, and more power that way.

Still think engine is red herring. Max ran low downforce low drag setup compared to Mercedes.

I think if RBR does something that takes out Hamilton, I hope Toto will put a bounty out on all RBR and AT cars for next year to all their engine customers.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Lights out and away we go!
Haha FIA is hilarious.
Max set the precedence, and it's come back to bite him.
Lucky that Mazepin is out with COVID-19, one less safety car chance

Not feeling it for RBR today.
I will say Lewis just absolutely nailed his start. Wow.

Max had the championship in hand many times. He choked it away.
Bounced off the wall last qualifying, flat spotted his tires yesterday, then forgot how to start today.
I would agree, Masi is has made a mess of things.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
This is either coming down to pit stop strategy or unexpected tyre wear. Not looking good for my boy Max right now
