Yeah, cars definitely can't seem to follow as closely this year as last.

Merc's porpoising and the required changes are to blame, from what I understand.

Yeah, I like Red Bull too (I drive a Honda 🤣). I have adopted Haas this year a little more. Gives me something else to root for in the middle of the pack. 

[grubby98]

let’s hope for a good one in miami

going to save for about 10 years so i can go one day and get pit passes 

[Bucki1968]

If Max can start 9th and take the lead before lap 25....this season is over. Go HAAS!

[grubby98]

can’t wait to see what everyone has come spain.  next race will be boring without rain or smaller cars

 

hope everyone around Imola is safe from the floods

‘I was passing out in the car’ says Lance Stroll as Qatar heat takes its toll

Logan Sargeant, Esteban Ocon, Alex Albon and George Russell also had issues.

Oh my.

Perez is definitely getting the boot at the end of the 2023 season, I give him less than a 10% chance of staying in the Red Bull for 2024 and 0% if he loses P2 in the WDC standings.

The biggest indicator is that now not even Christian Horner is defending him. Marko has always been critical of the 2nd driver alongside Max even when they're doing their job and taking home P2, but Horner has defending the #2 driver each time (Kvyat, Gasly, and Albon) up until the point which the decision seemed to be final that the #2 driver was going to be leaving shortly. His first unqualified negative comments for each of those drivers came only weeks before the announcements of their departure.

[grubby98]

yea if checo loses p2 to hamilton when max could have won the constructors all by himself, red bull may pull the plug and go with another driver.  mclaren are coming fast and next year they may battle them for the title if the second driver can’t get out of first stage of qualy

That looks like fun! I was just thinking I haven’t even watched the original F1 netflix show. I will at some point.
