He probably just feels a strong sense of loyalty to Marko. He handles the recruitment of the RB junior drivers. He was the one who pushed hard for Max to get the seat at just 17. You would have to assume he is a father figure and probably acted as a bit of a surrogate father to Max for a while.

I get Jos is not the most likeable dude getting around but the general sentiment seems a lot more in favour of Horner than it does to the Verstappens & Marko. IMO if Max is considering walking away from a team he just won three championships with then there's obviously something there. I seriously doubt he's the sort of character that would buckle his own hopes and dreams because somebody was mean to his dad.

Jos is a convicted criminal who fractured somebody's skull. Unlikeable dude is underselling it a bit.

You'd think that Max would be guaranteed World Championships this year and next year based on how good that car is so Max would be best suited to stick around for this year and next I reckon.

The unknown will be the new regs and the Ford engine in 2026, I wouldn't be surprised to see him drive elsewhere or leave F1 after next year and 5 straight world titles.

I'm posting to affirm that I believe in Ricciardo.

Once Renault management swallows their pride, get him back in and see those cars move up the grid.

Jack Doohan is an unremarkable journeyman. If he was seriously talented, then his dad, who should know better, has mismanaged him.

 

[gaskin]

He should have gone the bike route instead of cars.

Yes. This site should auto adjust the session times to your timezone.

I always use When Is F1 Next On?

Gives you both local time and a countdown for the next race, and if you click on the hamburger menu you can find the same local time conversion for all sessions

 

[DamoESP]

The official f1 app and website auto convert the session/race times as well

Yuki could have a penalty before the race even starts.

Lando to complain of Oscar holding him up on the formation lap.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Yeah I can’t see him getting an F1 seat to be honest

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Good start Oscar.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Great overtake Oscar

 

[gaskin]

Yes Oscar! Crucial to get ahead of Nando. Put space between him and the Mercs.

 

[darth_timon]

It’s a rare Saturday off for me… and I’m down Southend seafront, instead of at home in front of the telly. The sacrifices we make for our loved ones eh?

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Lando jumped the start

 

[gaskin]

Lando jumped the start

I thought he did in real time as well.

 

[gaskin]

I can't see Oscar keeping Alonso behind for too long. The lack of straight line speed without DRS as well as how poor the car is in sector 3 is going to cost him.

Yeah the DRS that Alonso has is killing him down the straight.

 

[gaskin]

Lol Stroll.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

****ing Stroll needs to quit. Oscar just got Alonso outside the DRS window and then Stroll hits the barrier and brings out the safety car.

 

[gaskin]

Yeah the DRS that Alonso has is killing him down the straight.

Spewing about Stroll's crash. It looked like Oscar had increased the gap slightly and was pulling away from Lando.

Yeah he just got Alonso outsude the 1 sec window when Stroll crashed.
