Glad to see the Lewis fans alive again and spunky after one or two had the championship sewn up for Max, which I found incredible.

The only thing going on is Mercedes have fixed their reliability issue, or are running their pu to the max forgoing any worry about reliability.
Actually it wasn’t an install error, the FIA actually stated that the wing mount on the right side had broken/cracked and that’s why it was out .2mm. They stated it wasn’t on purpose and was caused by damage.
This is what seems to have pissed Toto Wolf off, as Hamilton was disqualified for the same thing RB was allowed to repair under Parc Ferme conditions, wing damage.


Edit
Also, I just read this from an F1 site about Max “guiding” Hamilton off the track.

“In fact, the FIA ​​itself has agreed with him after the race. This Monday, Michael Masi, F1 race director, acknowledged that the Red Bull's maneuver was punishable , and excused his inaction in the lack of access to the onboards. In short, there is not much debate there.”

Very interesting.

So to the red bull conspiracy theorists on this thread, maxfia?

Like I said before if these revelations are true, you guys literally throw accusations without any facts or researching to support said claims. Goes to show how much weight there is in what you guys post.

For any F1 2021 game fans, they released the new Jeddah track today and it's FAST. Merc is going to have a huge advantage on this track I think, it's super fast and driving it feels like a slalom hah!

I'm more of a neutral party who doesn't care who wins, but I like to correct/debate misinformation.

Argh I need to get a sim setup, but I'm not much of a gamer anymore so I might opt out.

But this will really be interesting to see if Merc can win.

Well sorry but last time I looked Merc won't allow me to look under their PU cover
F87 you are quite voiciferous with your posts now that Ham's car has turned into a rocket ship, strangely as you purport not to support him, but at the end of the day your reasoning carries little weight in fact as little as your insinuations to us RB fans.

Let's just say nonstop biased accusations with no facts get tiresome even if you're in the middle.

Also the faster Merc or ham goes, the louder the nonsense from you guys get. So the more it tempts me to counter these insinuations. Someone has to stand up for the ones getting bullied/accused when it's not rightfully so.


The only reason why my points carry little weight to you guys is because you're too far gone with your hate towards Merc. But don't think for a second I let emotions or bias alter my view on the facts. I've had to do research presentations and defenses (where I either was heavily emotionally invested in the research or topic, or with topics I did not agree with) against people with with PhDs where every fact and talking point is scrutineered, and yet I had to remain neutral or face loosing myself with emotion to the point where I no longer would be able to remain factual and thus disqualified or penalized. I have also taken many supplemental courses in philosophy, logical thinking, and sociology so I know how to think properly. I've worked hard to try and remain, cool, calm, calculated, neutral and composed in everything I do because that helps me with my career in science.


But like I said before, I hold no resentment towards to any of you guys. I just like having debates about F1 because it's better than watching it alone. So if Merc, Honda or any other team does give you a chance to look under the body cover Lemme know lol.

I watched the YouTube video on this track by F1, and they said it was the second fastest track on the calendar after Monza, and it has like 20+ corners. Man the drivers are gonna have a great neck work out.

I’m kind of worried it’s going to be very boring with only RB and Merc left on the lead lap at the end of it. Doesn’t look like there are a lot of good passing zones and seems like it might be one really long drag race.

But only 7 days ago in MEXICO he was whining and said :
Man ! "This guys are just too fast for us"

It's very clear .Something is going on ...
The drs flap on Hamilton’s car was 0.2mm out of spec on one side. This was due either to parts wear or possibly damage. Anyone suggesting Hamilton is a cheat due to this is ignorant of F1 structure and regulations. The team engineers should have picked up the problem but didn’t , either way Hamilton was not responsible. Bigotry or blind hatred towards one driver and unconditional adulation of another dishonours the sport and doesn’t do Max any favours either.
