As a washed up case that will not surprise me. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

how can you say hes washed up . he still a 7 time world champ and he can only deliver with ,whats under him , and this year thats been motorised tree trunk. this year Ferrari have failed to deliver the drivers a car worthy of winning a championship . Next years engine looks promising if testing so far is aything to go by , thats why i expect Hamilton to go one more season

Maybe a little bit harsh, but he will not be a champ again. :fire:

I think it was the most difficult season of Sir Lewis Hamilton’s career.
But I wouldn’t blame Lewis alone for that.
Somehow, they didn’t manage to give him a car he felt comfortable with. And somehow, Lewis didn’t manage to communicate to Ferrari what he needed.
All in all, it’s a messed-up story.
That’s why I could imagine him ending his career.

Who would’ve thought that Max, could turn around a 104 point deficit into a title winning fight by the end of the season.

Certainly not McLaren.

thats your opinion (welcomed as it is). but 100 pts is only 4 dnfs and due to the closeness of the top teams anything is possible and as such i doubt
Andrea Stella would allow anyone at maclaren to think a driver of verstappens capability isnt capable of such a task.

Andrea Stella is better off being at Mclaren rather than at Ferrari. That is for sure. Even though Stella is an Italian. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

How is that an opinion, just look at the points table as of today, there’s only 12 points between Max & Lando for 1st place.

Which means Max needs to win to pinch if from Lando, or Max needs to be out of the top 10 for Lando to win. But don’t forget Oscar, he’s still in with a shout, only just mind you.

But we’ve had situation before, where 1 car works and the other 1 seems to struggle, even though on paper they’re identical.

There will be an advantage if Landos car will be the one that works as the better one. Harshly said. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

you stating that maclaren thought max couldnt turnaround a 104 pt deficit is an opinion!!!
but hey lets not get into a tit for tat snipeing session , everything we think is just an opinion on this topic :winking_face_with_tongue:

How to win the championship:

Lando Norris secures the title with a podium finish (3rd or better) doesn’t matter where Max or Oscar Finishes

Lando Finishes 4th or 5th as long as Max don’t win the race

Lando Finishes 6th or 7th as long as Max or Oscar don’t win the race

Max Verstappen takes the title only if he outscores Lando by 13+ points and finishes ahead of Oscar

Max finish 1st and Lando finishes 4th or worse

Max finishes 2nd Lando Finishes 8th or worse & Oscar not 1st

Max Finishes 3rd Lando 9th or worse & Oscar not 1st.

Oscar Piastri takes the title if:

Oscar finishes 1st Lando Finishes 6th or worse

Oscar finishes 2nd Lando finishes 10th or worse & Max finishes 4th or worse

Sounds like some years ago when Alonso, Vettel, and Webber had all three the chance to win the title in the last race.

The DQ in Vegas and Max winning today, that has certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons. Reading that write up.

So will it be a clean race, or a dirty race. Just to secure Lando his 1st WDC.

If Toto interferes with this.. he can be sure that Max will never sign for Mercedes as much as Toto wants that

just watch the difference between Leclerc and Hamilton

Lewis is a great champion if he has the best car and the worst teammate..

that is all..
