Am I the only one who thinks MV is a major cry baby, egotistical, entitled, poor sport?
His outburst of „shit qualification“ today, once again proved his immaturity. Love how Johnny Herbert excused his profanity, lol.
Four weeks ago his waving the media away from him, and just the way he always sulks when out qualified is just annoying!
What a complete doofus/clown...

He had a chance in 2017 at the drivers title and some mental errors cost him and I think he went downhill from there with more frequent mental lapses, mostly spinning

I would feel frustrated myself if I had two purple sectors and then the lap being red flagged again for the 3rd of 4th time.

Who would not be, other than Le Clerc?

I agree. Entitled little brat. Things has to go his way or he whines like a little baby.

Everyone would be. But that doesn't mean you have to whine like a baby about it. It's racing, things outside of your control happen.

Take it like a man.

Easy for anyone for us to say. When we get to race in F1, let's see how it actually goes LOL.

Max and Charly are the future rulers of F1. Expect a Prost/Senna or Schumy/Mika like rivalry....after Lewis' retirement probably.

I agree with everything except until after Lewis retirement.

I agree .On the other hand :

Why Leclerc had the upgraded 2020 Ferrari chassis and floor while SEB had to run the half season with old stuff from 2019 ?

No wonder SEB crashed so many times..

And of course this as well.....Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words

I think it's looking likely Bottas will be replaced next year, most likely by Russell. I would be keen to see how he will perform in the MB, assuming they will continue to have a top performing car.

GPblog has said that Wolf 'used' BOT like a pawn to promote hammy up the order and he annoyed Tots by giving Leclerc a tow as revenge

At least he doesn't (openly) blame his team when things don't go as he planned like some others do.
There's immaturity and then there's.......... immaturity

Except none of the other F1 drivers whine and cry like him all the time.

Is he talented - yes

Is he a crybaby - yes
Is he entitled - yes
Does RB encourage and support his behaviour - yes

Do an few lap up his behaviour and worship him...just read 90% of the posts here for that answer

How was anything he said whining?

[NickyC]

Since Singapore is being irrationally terrified again and canceling the race for Convid, they should run back to back at Baku. Hell make it three in a row since the Canadian track organizers pussied out too for the second year running. This is going to be the best race of the year I can feel it, I love this track.

“Well the car has been a wreck for the last two races, if not for divine intervention I’d be last in my Merc wagon. By “divine” I am referring to me, myself and I. Bono bring me my pants ASAP!”

- hammy

I think Max has some growing up to do but he still very young. He life is singularly focused at 22, we have all been there. Jos should teach Max a lesson and make Max wear hammy’s pants.

are we really judging a 7 Times World Champion's racing talent by his pants that he wears? and how different he is from other drivers?

i know where this talk will lead.. nowhere.. happened here million times..

i dont know you Bubbles.. but i know myself.. its been quite a while that i dont judge people by their appearances.. you can interpret of course.. but it ll be purely subjective.. and we can see at the moment how warped results can be..

felt really bad to see such talks here..

Why does he have some growing up to do?

All he said is that he was disappointed that he couldn't maximize his result.
That he couldn't make optimal use of the situation where others could.
I think any real athlete isnt a real athlete if he wouldn't feel disappointed when not achieving P1 when it was within his grasp. You want to cheer for an athlete that says: "if I had performed to my maximum ability I would have stood on P1 but I'm very happy with P3"?
I can only think back to the glorydays of F1 when Senna and Prost were fighting the battle all weekend long because the wouldnt take less than P1. Not only in the race or in qualifying, but also in all the practice sessions. They wanted to be #1 period.

Mind you, VER doens't blame anyone in particular here, he's disappointed in his own performance, that he wasn't there at the right time. And there is nothing wrong or immature about that. Not for an athlete that is there to win.

Using his age as an excuse is just another way to talk him down on a point that isn't really there. A poor discussion technique.

It's not VER that has some growing up to do here.....

Why are you surprised? I'm no longer surprised at the inane stupidity that is said in international forums to justify the borderline-racist and straight-up racists comments that are made about Sir Lewis.

The funny thing about the "gentleman" bringing up the pants is especially hilarious since so many fans are complaining about the "corporate robot driver" and not-then Sir Lewis left McLaren to have more freedom as an individual. The forays into fashion, music and many other endeavors are the result of this yet there are fans who impugn him about being different.

It's literally insane.
