All you need to do it see it with your eyes. Max is incredible and Ham only a product of a materially advantage.

It's not black and white. As someone who doesn't give a crap about this ongoing argument, it's hilarious how blind both sides are.

Ham was good. Maybe just as good as Max is now, but we will never know because they're different ages and we cannot see them compete while both are at their peak. Ham is getting old for this sport. His reaction is slower. His cognitive speed has slowed. His current performance is not representative of the driver he used to be.

Driving on the limit, looking to narrow the margin to achieve the optimum. Once beyond the critical minimum, it's game over and called "pilot error".

Also Russell kissed the barriers during qualies, but got away unscathed.

Hamilton lost control twice, compromising his Q3.

Also in racing it is not the most intellectual or the strongest of the species who survives, but the one who is able best to adapt and adjust to the changing environment in which he finds himself.

A couple of race weekends ago, also the young hopeful Kimi Antonelli binned Russell's Mercedes into the barriers.

I don't call it a Ferrari track unless one of my guys is clearly on pole.
Leclerc got pole. Subsequently Sainz. But in the dying seconds of Q3 others bettered their lap times. It was close.

Gasly said that he was feeling cold inside the car.

Earlier this race weekend, Colapinto said that pilots can smell drugs on many parts of the track and he joked that if drug tests were taken, all drivers would test positive because of this.

'Starosc nie radosc' is an old Polish saying meaning worry not joy and as LEW gets on more, self preservation is more important to LEW than getting into the top 5.

🚨| According to AP News, the team that would enter on the F1 grid in 2026 would be called Cadillac F1.
They would be a Ferrari engine through 2026 and 2027 and with their own engine starting 2028.
