How can you hate Max? Like seriously. Is it just 'they're 18 and driving in F1 and already have a far better life than I ever will' stuff?

Can you ever forget when he was asked 'oh Seb thinks your weaving poo poo is dangerous and you shouldn't do it' he didn't miss a beat and said about the 4 times WDC 'Seb doesn't know how to do it. He can't do it. If he could do it then he might have something to contribute' or something like that.

Max is the very manifestation of 'the best drivers in the world', fresh from karting and with the taste of blood in their mouths. Surely, Worst Thread.. tell ole Tony why he's trippin

Alternatively no. He's a horrible little frog mouthed twerp who'll probably get a better, more likable driver killed.

He's bad and his dad is stupid. Also everybody was blown away when he passed a bunch of really slow cars on fresher tires.

Yeah there was also a time where he overtook Nico in the rain and actually was slicing through that field like it was GP2. When he joined RBR he won his first race for the team.

Nico is terrible in the rain (and in general) and Max was driving the second best car in the grid. Not a huge task.

If Ayrton was alive, he would have disintegrated Bruno and declared Our Lewis the true heir to the Senna legacy and the eternal moral Formula One champion.

Holy poo poo Mat ate a 100,000 hour probation. What the gently caress is going on in this thread?

The most ignored list in posting gloryhole surprised me (92).

I unironically like red bull's drivers but can't stand Horner or Marco. Lewis is a brilliant driver but an unlikable cock. Arrivabene is awesome, happy seb is awesome, and I want them to stick it to that detestable fiat Bond villain by winning.

Was Ross Brawn in charge instead of Bernie when you last logged in?

Mercades look ominous, Ferrari look better, MCLRN look better than last year, Renault engines keep making GBS threads the the bed and Stroll got in the car twice, crashed three times and binned it so bad the last time Williams missed a day of testing. https://hasstrollcrashedyet.com

Why a chilli next to "Carlo55ainz"? Well, that's Sainz's nickname.

As he explained to F1Racing last year:

"So I was out with my friends and they maybe had a couple of drinks more than they should have. They call me Charlie sometimes and then it went from Charlie to Charlies and it ended up with Chilli, and since then everyone has called me Chilli in my circle of friends."

It's great banter.

Is "Chilli 5ainz" going to be probatable?

Hope you're having an amazing day

If Williams had any sense, they'd send Massa out for day 1 & 2 - let Stroll's inevitable destruction of the car not have an impact on MWDC 2017 Massa's testing time.

This thread is about the least Brit dominated F1 discussion on the internet, there's like 3 of us. It's also just about Lewis fan free . I'm sorry your girlfriend is too good for you, and I hope your fatal Ferraritis doesn't cause you too much distress.

It's definitely the least Brit dominated, you can tell because every now and again you lot start jabbering on about some Bob Varsha or Hobbs or something and I don't even know what the hell you're all going on about.
