Lewis wins an 8th WDC in 2021, becoming undisputed GOAT and retires to pursue his careers in music and fashion. Max jumps at the chance to take the empty Mercedes seat... only for Merc to botch the 2022 change from aero to ground effect, giving Alpine and Alonso a surprise win. Checo finishes second in the WDC.

5 DNFS! Max is inconsistent!!

- Electrical failure
- Engine failure
- Engine failure
- Tyre failure
- Shoved off the track

Truly a man who needs to work harder.

In an era of insane car consistency where most drivers get like 1-2 retirements per season whereas Max consistently get 4-5 - yes, I'm thinking he is doing something wrong. Maybe he keeps turning on the party mode you can use for a maximum of 5 laps because he mentally can't handle being the quickest coolest guy on track or whatever? I don't know. But his car is dying on him far more than you would statistically expect.

Clearly it's because he pushes the throttle like an idiot instead of you know, his car has reliability issues and it's got nothing to so with him.

I don't understand why you people constantly make up baseless poo poo about Max.

This is like a The Sun-reading soccer fan yelling their dumbass theory at the TV.
It's fundamentally embarrassing to humanity that people can have such a stupid opinion and be allowed to type it into a medium where other people might see it.

None of that is even remotely possibly true if you understood anything beyond CAR GO ROUND TRACK HEH HEH HEH and there's just no point explaining why you're wrong.

No. Saying "what you would statistically expect" with a sample of one lmao and none of the factors he imagined can play a part.

It's like arguing with a toddler why you don't eat the dirt. You don't, you just take it out their mouth.

I think Max is good OP, and yet he also deliberately drives into walls on a regular basis. Why? Does he derive some kind of pleasure from it? Is it a sex thing?

What the gently caress are you talking about?
What the gently caress season did you watch?

I know you jerk off every time Max's car breaks down, so I'm sure it's all very memorable to you and you want to talk about it. If you are sane, however, you'd recognise they tried extremely hard to avoid engine penalties for Max, which meant stretching the power units for more races than before. Being the literal only driver/car combo who could fight Mercedes, kinda leads to these situations.

max breaks his car all the time because of how hard the RBR mechanics work

I mean they are hard workers no doubt, remember when max crashed his car before the race even started and they fixed it in time

Now we can all be assured it is not the car that drives into walls, seeing as Checo is able to run a lap around silverstone without issue

This is very true. Sebastian Vettel was able to win 4 times and he spends most his races doing donuts for no reason. Really reflects poorly on Max when you think about it.

Silverstone may be a driver favourite and a technical challenge, but it's boring as gently caress to look at. Any Brit who gets misty-eyed at the thought of a flat field in the middle of nowhere is the same kind of Farage-supporting, flat-roofed-pub-with-Sky-Sports-frequenting gammon who preferred It's A Knockout to Jeux Sans Frontieres.
