Someone Finally Must Have Asked McLaren The Right Questions About Hungary!

Idc say what you will Max is pure class

He turned his chair to face winner’s chair when Lewis walked in

Kept it light and smiley during a cooldown room and podium

Was quick to applaud and went for Lewis during Champagne celebration

For a guy who is raised with “2nd place is the first loser” mentality he still understood it meant so much for Lewis to win with Mercedes at his home GP so whatever sour feelings he had about not being the winner he kept to himself

spot the difference

and i'm so here for it

For us who have lived through too many seasons of "next year," there would be a peculiar poetry in seeing him—the one who stayed, who suffered, who never wavered—be the one to end our long wait. For when that moment comes, whether it takes seventeen years or more, it will mean more because it was earned through unwavering loyalty, not just talent.

I need Alpine to commit to the whole bit put Pierre and Esteban in special Deadpool & Wolverine racing suits.

F2 is not F1 and people need to start realizing it.

I see it again and again, people trying to judge things that happen in F2 by the measurements in F1 and i understand that the official titles and descriptions are misleading many fans into believing they are the exact same but they are not so here is a small explanation;

What is the goal in F1? Obviously, winning titles, both drivers championship and constructor championship. How do you achieve that? Build the fastest car, get the best drivers, and make the most points. Now what's the goal in F2? You’d think it's winning the title, but actually it's showing off skill and attracting F1 teams. How do you do that? Again, you’d think you would win and get the most points, but that hasn’t been the focus in years, today it's showing off your skill.

But shouldn't skill translate to wins? Well, technically yes, but there's two more huge differences between F1 and F2. First of all, the drivers are younger, they are more reckless and crash more often. The drivers DNF a lot more and oftentimes they are not at fault but they don't get points, also there's things like the reverse grid which are active tools so drivers can show off their overtaking skills too. 

More importantly though, is the fact that F2 is a spec series while F1 is also an engineering contest. For explanatory reasons; in F2 every driver has the same base car, the teams can change set-up and such things but generally the cars perform very similarly. There's still some performance differences because certain teams work better with the cars but it's not comparable to F1, where every team more or less builds their own car.

Now here is the point where a lot of people misunderstand the use of F2; F1 teams look at F2 drivers and choose who they want for their teams and this year, Oliver Bearman and Kimi Antonelli are closely discussed while Paul Aron with more points is pretty much ignored. A lot of people expect the F2 champion to get an F1 seat, but in this year, even if he makes less points, Antonelli is proving himself to be a world class driver with overtakes like this one. Antonelli suffered through, with multiple DNFs, getting involved in crashes and other things out of his hand, while Aron was very lucky, at least until Spa where we could see how even good drivers can get really unlucky. 

In the end, F1 teams know the best which driver is really good and which drivers fit their cars the best. They are observing the drivers in all the younger categories, so if Aron is really good enough for F1, a team will pick him up, but at the moment he doesn't show the results.

The same goes by the way for F3 

charles winning A CASA NOSTRA (OUR HOME) as an italian tifosa will always be dear to me.

Aston are giving Fernando everything except a good car. They are making him do silly stuff on tiktok more often now, let him customize his own aston martin like a kid in a toy box, and give him outfits that make him look like either a divorced alcoholic uncle at a family cookout or a sugar daddy mob boss supervillain to fuel his evil aura.

Its like Aston is dangling shiny keys in front of his face and jangling them going “Oo look nando new car, oo nando look a silly new tiktok idea!” to distract him from their incompetence. And the fact that its working is very hilarious to me.

‘Life isn’t always about winners and losers, it’s about…eggs’ and all the noises they made😭😭😭
