Maybe it's Yuki's lucky number.

Hamilton raced with #2 (2007), #22 (2008), #1 (2009), #2 again (2010), #3 (2011), #4 (2012), #10 (2013) and ever since with #44 (2014-2025).

I appreciate Yuki's confidence, I'm sure he's pumped to get the call up to the big boy team, especially for his home GP. But I'm a bit worried for him. He seems to have matured a bit the past year or so, his frustrated outbursts have seemingly taken a break. But now the spotlight is on. Curious how he's going to handle that pressure.

I think he'll be alright, in front of the Japanese crowd at least he won't want to fly off the handle should an incident occur.

Wondering if I should change my name from "Killed by Death" to "The Swiss"?

With Hamilton on my team now I have to stay neutral

I think the RB21 has already the minimal weight with the blue paint.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do it in white, if that would make the car heavier.
