Guess the driver

“I drive the way I drive, if people have an issue with that, that’s their problem,” [Max/or Hammy] stated.

“I drive aggressively because my car is not fast enough at times and I have to push and be aggressive.”

[Max/or Hammy] asserted the style was learnt when he first started racing go-karts.

“I had a go-kart that was not brand new and it was slow and I had to push extra, extra hard to make the time and that’s what I am doing now.

“If I had a car I could cruise around, then I wouldn’t have to be aggressive.”

Hint if your need it, he has a neck tattoo.

Really disappointing considering how many levels of approval would be required to get it on air.

“Class” and prestige has vacated the building and replaced by a circus.

Most Dangerous Driver on the Grid

Not Max
Not Hammy


B O T T A S

Last race in the Merc rocket, nothing to lose and everything to gain.

He was driving like a Valet driver assigned to long-term parking at an executive airport. Oh, how I enjoyed my summer job, good thing management was unaware I would have worked 7 days a week for free.

Agreed, uncalled for.

I'm not surprised to see from Sky as most are rooting for HAM. And I do feel their opinion and commentating are biased.

a good example i remember recently was HAM vs PER in Turkey 2021.
Croft mentioned something did Perez pushed Hamilton wide/or Hamilton gave too much room.
Where Button (sitting in for Brundle that weekend) corrects him immediately. "I think Perez gave Hamilton too much room."
(To me which was an great wheel-to-wheel racing!!!)

Another example was after Brazil, that Damon Hill wanted to crucify VER for the "tactical foul". Definitely a bit hard and dirty racing IMO, but you can see from the interview of Sky w/ Christian Horner. Felt like several pundits ganging up on Horner.

I don't know man, it just doesn't sound right.

The thing is, when that disgraceful Sky ad - supposed to make "fun" out of the 51G Silverstone crash - started to make waves, most thought that it was fake, unrelated to Sky. But it turned out to be legit. Sky realized that the ad backfired and removed it. But it was too late: it had gone viral.

Anyways, should this "poking the bear" ad catch Verstappen's attention (highly doubtful) it will almost certainly galvanize him to prove them wrong.

Have you guys seen the side walls of the tires for the final race? It says next year I turn 18", pretty cool little touch.
