Yuki in there might still salvage a second place WCC for next season. But my god they are doomed with just max fighting probably going to be lucky to finish 4th in 2025

Horner has just stated he's keen to sign George Russell

Perez is the new Sargeant.

Shame on Hamilton. It is precisely because this is the pinnacle of the sport that it commands decorum.

Hamilton standing up for Verstappen ("it is also good to have some emotion as we are not robots") and critcizing FIA boss for his language.

i think he meant the community service is not an appropriate punishment. maybe he prefers a fine as is the usual punishment.

Ben Sulayem‘s message wasn’t cool at all. And he should know better. Muslims and Arabs are often at the business end of stereotypes.

Oh, I see.

Well, there’s a reason they don’t make me long. Leave it to me, all prison sentences and fines would be replaced with community service. The streets would be so clean, you’d eat off the tarmac.

While Max is ready to win again he says.

So I'm sure Max P1 at Turn 1, and then we see what happens.

MBS and gaffes: he ain't particularly the sharpest tool in the shed.

Alonso for FIA boss...

RUS is not a bad driver and he was scraping the barrel to get into Merc at the time, sleeping rough on the grass in between driving HAM's Merc with a pair of small racing boots. I would welcome him into RBR.

Things like swearing from drivers who are under FIA rules not to do that even under pressure when they sign up for F1 should be sorted by FIA behind closed doors, drivers are obliged to follow the code and it's Ben Sulayem's job to follow that up.

Giau pass, very nice

It's MAX against LAN into turn 1 in an hour and bets are on that LAN won't give in easy as he did to PIA at Monza, let the sport begin.

But if they both crash, it'll be very disadvantagous for NOR.
Not only that he can't reduce his gap to Max with fewer races to go, but also that PIA and (somewhat) LEC will creep up to NOR in the WDC.
So Max definately has the mental upperhand, besides NOR bad start record and that I think he's more susceptible to those mind games and memories.

Of course I hope for a crash free race, but this is Singapore and there are a lot of things at play....

If LAN drives like how he did at Baku and caught up to MAX, I think he will be alright, loving the excitement for Singapore!

Love the drama for sure - but yeah, not cool at all. Am on the side of Max and Hammy on this one.
