Serious question. Considering what all is at stake, Max’s first time championship, and Hamilton claiming the title of all time champion (no more tying with Schumacher), don’t you guys think that either driver will do what it takes to win? I don’t condone dangerous moves, but a lot is at stake in these last races. Personally, I believe it makes for good race watching. The win will not be a given, that’s for sure.

You don't condone dangerous moves, as well as me, so any deliberate collision that influences winning a championship should be dealt with accordingly by penalising the aggressor, like Schumacher was attempting on Villeneuve in 1997.

Only a total idiot would say that, goes against what one or two said that wolf's an intelligent man with a knack for business and sportsmanship, shot himself in the foot there

Ex Bridgestone engineer Kees says Max needs to build more of a points gap in the next two races.

While Hamilton had a few lucked out moments, one that I remember was Imola.

Nonetheless, what an awesome season this is! Hope the remaining five races will be straight fight (like Austin), minimum collision and DNFs.

Yeah my friend . The more they push on the right pedal ...
The more water or Red Bull will come

As for Checo , I heard It's Tequila !

MAX => •"First of all, the water gets warm" When we accelerate, the water is going straight in. It (drinking) is very difficult. Sometimes you try to talk, you accelerate out of a corner and the water is coming in."

In 10-15 laps it's gone Max says so I guess to make it last longer just bite on the tube (to block the flow) haha

Track info

Medium range tires C2, C3, C4

1st Sector - very fast first sector (54% of the circuit is full throttle), low abrasion surface and thin air reduces aerodynamic drag, emphasis on the braking zones.

2nd Sector - medium-high speed curves

3rd Sector - narrow and tortuous, hard on tires, soft compounds suffer graining.

Pit stop: ~18 seconds, two stopper strategy; potential for undercut

Elevation: 2285 meters above sea level

17 turns

Track Record: 1:14.759 [Daniel Ricciardo, RB14, 2018]
Race Record: 1:18.741 [Valtteri Bottas, W09, 2018]

Lol it's definitely not for everyone. I love MMA, I watch bellator shows and onefc as well. I just love the science of pure combat and the technical side of feints, striking, and grappling.

From next year scrutineering of the 18'' wheel cars will happen on Friday mornings instead of Thursday afternoons and any updates and new parts will have to be told to FIA which will then be passed on to the fans. It's a good move and won't keep the technically minded fans in the dark anymore.
