May 11, 20224 yr This is great analysis. Max is probably in the fastest car, but Carlos's mistakes in the first couple of corners let him by and make it much easier for him to reel in Charles 10 laps later.
May 11, 20224 yr I wouldn't say that was a mistake. He couldn't go elsewhere having Leclerc breaking right in front and Max close enough so he couldn't get the outside.
June 19, 20224 yr Gonna be hard to see anyone catching Max. He just looks flawless out there. I feel very bad for Mick S. That poor kid just can't catch a break.
July 3, 20223 yr No it didn't. I'm glad Carlos won, it was about time that nothing broke in his car. Things keep getting more interesting. A miracle that Zhou was unhurt.
July 4, 20223 yr ^ yes very relieved that Zhou was ok. This year is so much more interesting than when the silver arrows dominated.
July 14, 20223 yr Nice NYT write-up on DTS: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/14/magazine/formula-1-miami-drive-to-survive.html
October 10, 20223 yr Kind of a crappy end of the season with two rainy races in a row, but congrats to Max V. He had the fastest car, but he drove the wheels off the damn thing. Since about the third or forth race of the season he has left exactly zero doubt who the world champion would be. Here is hoping that Ferrari, Merc, Alpine, etc can give him more of a run for his money in 2023.

November 12, 20223 yr Happy for KMAG. Guy has been grinding all year in the shit-box Haas. It is a shame the sprint races are always a snooze-fest, but that doesn't take away from his happy day. Edited November 12, 20223 yr by TMoney
November 14, 20223 yr Yup, I had a lot of fun and was glad for George and Carlos. I can't believe Verstappen didn't swap places to increase the points account for Checo's subchampionship, what a dick.
November 15, 20223 yr Yeah, pretty much. Looking at the other side though, I find it interesting that even though the intent seems quite obvious, there were no repercussions. In football it would be a red card. (But of course he was playing wingman for a long time already.)
November 19, 20223 yr Setting up for a fun one tomorrow with so much still left in play. Battle for 2nd between Perez (p2) and Leclerc (p3) who are tied on points. Ferrari Boyz trying to hold off the late charging Mercs in the constructors. Ditto Alpine and McLaren. Sir Lewis with his last chance of winning a Grand Prix this season. Let’s see if I can get up in time for the 5AM PST start 🙃
November 19, 20223 yr I'm afraid the race is going to be a lot less fun than we'd like. Max and Checo have a lot of chances to score a doublet and it's even possible that Max lets Checo win to wash his bad image on last race. Ferrari should be looking at the rear mirror to avoid Mercedes getting the head over them and stealing the sub championship in the very last race. Ferrari is going to struggle keeping the front tyres alive long enough. I for one I'm going to enjoy whatever it happens, but I'm looking forward to the next season. Winter is too long for F1 lovers
December 1, 20223 yr Just goes to show there has been controversy in F1 almost as long as I have been alive. And dig that soundtrack for Wheelbase!

March 6, 20233 yr Happy to be racing again... And very happy to see a particular someone return to the podium.
