Had Rosberg not retired, we could have had another awesome 2-3 years of their rivalry.

ROS is a clever and cunning chap and he had his own agenda doing the right thing retiring as champion as he knew what would be coming within Merc if he stayed.

As for us MAX fans , it would be much better for MAX and us if MAX moves to Mercedes.
In other words : It's like a sign on the wall , the 2026 RB22 with active aero and the 2026 Ford PU will be a mess .
It's time for MAX to nail it (!)

Toto has been dreaming of Max since 2021, this is his biggest chance. He is trying his best. Painting the AMG safety car orange, putting orange 3 pointed stars all over the W16 like some teen infatuated with a significant other.

The ball is in Max's court no doubt. He has a contract w RB, but he is in control of his destiny and he can choose to leave if he wants to. At the moment he has not categorically said he's staying.

It will take more than putting a Max Orange Army wrap on the pace car and orange stickers on the Merc race car to get to MAX. The thought of the Silverstone '21 celebrations with Wolff celebrating with champagne while MAX was seing double in a clinic is probably a glaring factor no?

Practice 3..Here we go...

Delayed ....What a start

[G30M]

60% chance of rain today

[RichardInCA]

Impressive turn around in fortunes for Red Bull in FP3

[M5Rick]

Here we go about to start the quali..poor ol' Ollie crashed on a red in FP so has 10 place grid drop.
Risk of rain is 30% and temp is 19C.

Colapinto , the gravel idiot (!)

RED FLAG (!)

[M5Rick]

Cola/Alpine spins out and gets his car covered in sand but escaped from the gravel trap with just wing tip damage only to stop on the track! Was he told by the snowflakes to stop and alight from the car and session is now stopped, WTF... brit weeds...

MAX did well to get that banker lap, threat of rain and red flag through Cola...and spots of rain. PIA saying track is not the same as before...

[M5Rick]

So what guests are there, so far I've seen celeb cook Ramsey and now Charlie's bird in the Ferrari box as Q2 starts.

[M5Rick]

A down shift didn't go in for MAX's car and PIA equals his time 000! as NOR goes in front of MAX, checking MAX's car now.

Yes! Yes! MAX's skinny rear wing paid off, he creamed everyone

MAX is pole (!) What a lap ...

[M5Rick]

Ouvre la porte vor MAX Ooh Ahh Ver-sta-ppen
Crowd gone a bit quiet my friend.. I wonder why ha ha

[M5Rick]

MAX: ''This car is so horrible'' really?? ie (the answer my friend is blowing in the wind) rather the wind was pushing him on at the right moments also his positioning and the Larens were out of luck
+ Lots of new parts on car 1 .
