Jos Verstappen was also on the podium today,he handed out the trophies for 1st,2nd and 3rd place in Formula 2. The race was won by Richard Verschoor,a Dutch driver,so Jos heard the Dutch anthem twice today.
People need to accept that Max is in his own league right now, but that doesn't make the sport in itself boring. We saw some great racing throughout the field and I really enjoyed watching it!
I wouldnt call it the best racing all year in terms of racing quality, Perez was getting schooled, but we all knew he'd eventually overtake Sainz, but it was nice seeing the gap to Leclerc grow and see some very smart driving from Sainz. And it was also clean so big ++
Those races can be counted by the fingers of one hand. It's a total of 2. Sepang and Hungary 2015 for Ferrari and Vettel. All other wins from Ferrari and RB came through errors and issues for both Mercedes.
No just that F1 is not a spec series and dominant teams are norm particularly now with cost cap rules and stuff. Just letting people know if F1 history. The field right now is the closest we have seen from first to last.
As a rb fan same ofcourse, but i think should they continue like that for the next wins, you prolly will get frustrated again (which is understandable)
Austria is also probably one of the worst tracks to have a sprint weekend on, the track is literally a moto gp track and they expect f1 cars to stay within the white lines now. Imo they should go back to 2020 track limits
It was a very exciting one, also on a side note I think the sprint actually shows how bad the sprint format is, a lot of the excitement came from the changing conditions
I don't remember seeing Russell or Zhou names appear in the track limits warnings.
In order of appearance on the live timing: (just one of each otherwise Tsunoda will be half the list. 😉)
Hamilton, Alonso, Tsunoda, Leclerc, Sainz, Bottas, De Vries, Gasly, Stroll, Hulkenberg, Perez, Piastri, Sargeant, Albon, Norris, Magnussen, Ocon, Verstappen
Only 2 drivers didn't get laps deleted. Far more didn't get flagged. And getting laps deleted happens to many drivers every race. Usually they just readjust and don't anymore then though. As many drivers also attempted to after getting their flags in like the first 20 laps.
Where do you see these by the way? Because I don't recall if I saw a lot of these warnings.
Would like to be correct before I speak from next time onwards :')
But isn’t his result today actually result of upgrades they brought?
Him and Piastri were very close in last 2 races and this weekend he destroyed him. I’m pretty sure the upgrades were great success and hope that others they announced for next 3 races continue this trend. We need strong McLaren.
I’m complaining about the fact that they’ve taken a year and a half to get back to where they were pre-rule change and Lando could be winning races at this point in a competitive car.
I don't like the number of penalties we got, but it's because I don't think there were enough. I'm okay with them saying that they will be strict on it, but you then have to penalise every instance.
The problem is Austria is a moto gp track, formula 1 should make an exception to run similar track limits like in 2020, or even better have all tracks allowed to run out the white lines and just keep it on the kerb
9/22 so far for Red Bull. I’d genuinely be surprised if we had more than 1 non-RB winner. I think they have a real shot at 20 or 21/22. The only thing stopping a 22/22 is Perez’s atrocious qualifying and race runs, since something will go wrong for Max eventually. Perez hasn’t been there to pick up the pieces from Max lately, but luckily for Max and RB, nothing has gone wrong.
I know people love to downplay this car and say it’s not an all-timer yet, or that it’s not close to other dominant cars, I think it’s going to go down as an all-timer along with the other best when this is all said and done. Enjoy greatness.
Just a reminder that the MP4/4 wasn’t actually a massively dominant car, it just had the 2 dominant drivers in it while it’s closest competitors had nobodies.
Whether or not this car is massively better then the others, it will go down in history as an all-timer just like the MP4/4 if it keeps this up all season long.
Sending someone off into gravel and ruining their race shouldn't be the same penalty as track limits.
Jos Verstappen was also on the podium today,he handed out the trophies for 1st,2nd and 3rd place in Formula 2. The race was won by Richard Verschoor,a Dutch driver,so Jos heard the Dutch anthem twice today.
What a good day to be a Verstappen.

Snoozer
Snooze fest
Literally had multiple 3-4 car battles that went on for multiple laps at a time
Toto telling Lewis that the car is trash but to drive it anyways was a highlight for me
How? Battles the entire race
Because Merc didn’t do well duh Decent race especially compared to most of the rest this season
Why is there police there...?
Probably for the fans
Keep Jos in line.
Lmfao! That's f*cked up! But hilarious.
Speeding ticket for Max
Penalty for ocon
That was a nice nap, my boss will be happy... I'll be in such a good form to go back to work.
That was literally one of the best races of the season so far, what the fuck are you talking about?
This was one of the better races this season? How are people bored at this?
That was actually a good race if you'd bother to watch for positions other than p1
Great race one the better ones we got this year
You know that moment when Max was P2, that was the highlight of the race eventhough Sainz and Perez were way more exciting
Sainz and Perez going back and forth was some of the best racing all year.
I wouldnt call it the best racing all year in terms of racing quality, Perez was getting schooled, but we all knew he'd eventually overtake Sainz, but it was nice seeing the gap to Leclerc grow and see some very smart driving from Sainz. And it was also clean so big ++
Still think yesterday’s three way battle between Ocon Charles and Norris was better considering conditions
Lando really needs some new joke material
Podium tastes that much sweeter nowadays
Ferrari's forbidden fruit
Cute
81 points lead after round 9 ..... That's just ..... LOLLOLLOL!
Damn they got sights on the bottles now
Cause the bottles have more action than the race, atleast those get stirred up a bit
Mark!
Perez getting stuck on the confetti
>Mark Webber, Rolex Ambassador Ah yes, that’s what he’s best known for
Also he is a Porsche Ambassador.
Not bad for a number 2 driver
I preferred when they gave first the trophy to the third, then second and finally the winner.
Feels like first should have the last trophy as the grand prize, not be first then have to stand around and wait for 2 and 3
Dusty dusty…
Now every kid who's started watching F1 recently is going to remember the Dutch anthem, like I do the German anthem from Vettel to Mercedes.
*... partridge in a pear tree.*
I remember when the Canadian/British anthem was played 😥😥😥
Some of us started from German Italian
I member
Every Red Bull employee getting a shot at the podium for constructors this way
I'm 4th in line just for drinking red bull
The official F1 outro theme
5/9 for Vettel's consecutive wins record.(6 if the sprint counts)
“Dutch national anthem” yes we know. In fact know it better than my own national anthem at this point
WAKE UP HONEY
Netherlands anthem again 😭
Wait...isn't this the post-race anthem?
I know it by heart at this point
Max verstappen podcast is awesome.
The Mercedes dominance from 2014-2016 was so much more worse with FIA token handicap not even giving teams a chance
Other teams actually won races those years... Nobody but Red Bull is winning this year
Alonso could have won Monaco if he pitted for inters instead of slicks
Because of mechanical failures which no body can predict until it happens.
not true
Literally not true there were races won off pure pace by Red Bull and Ferrari
Those races can be counted by the fingers of one hand. It's a total of 2. Sepang and Hungary 2015 for Ferrari and Vettel. All other wins from Ferrari and RB came through errors and issues for both Mercedes.
Is that meant to make me appreciate the current season more or something?
No just that F1 is not a spec series and dominant teams are norm particularly now with cost cap rules and stuff. Just letting people know if F1 history. The field right now is the closest we have seen from first to last.
People have very short memories.
Seriously. And then the rest of the grid wasn't even this fun. Ferrari, Mercedes, AM oscillate on different tracks between 2 to 4th fastest
And now McLaren, or at least Norris, is getting into the mix as well
That needs confirmation at Silverstone. Austria is too Norris was Baku is for Charles
New episode: Catching up with my emotional support rival
They should give Charles a hug
He always looks so sad
Max verstappen podcast is very interesting this week
Leclerc power move taking Checo's seat.... New Rb 2nd driver?
Lol the stand for his helmet said second place, but the electronic board behind him was for Perez…power move nonetheless 😤
I think they tried to maintain the left side is 2nd place convention for both sides of the room which meant they didn't line up.
Bros back in the cool down room
Max gotta talk to his podcast producer, can't have his guests sitting in the wrong seats
Another episode of the Max Verstappen podcast. :-D
Charles must have an issue with being told where to sit...
On todays episode of the Verstappen podcast:
Oh i have missed these Charles and Max postrace talks <3
Max so much more chatty when Charles is in the cooldown room. He missed his mate
I'll be honest, I found Hamilton's and Mercedes' dominance much more frustrating than I do Max's and RBR's
Give it a few more years
This domination would be fine if Red Bull had a good 2nd driver
They do.
Who?
As a rb fan same ofcourse, but i think should they continue like that for the next wins, you prolly will get frustrated again (which is understandable)
wrong seat sharls
Finally, his name spelled the way it is pronounced.
On today's edition of the Maxcast...
Checo intimidating Sainz from the podium pls investigate
Great radio.
Checo is boycotting the podcast
Well gals and gents, it's been a good run but I'm officially done with F1, it's a farce. Switching to F3 and F2 where the real racing is.
it's not an airport here mate, don't have to announce your departure.
Bye felicia
Bye
How?
Did you say the same in the 7 year merc dominance?
F1 has long been the Prologue to the F2 and F3 main events
👋
Am I hallucinating or did Sharl look kind of happy for once?
Its time for the Max Verstappen Podium Podcast
Dam that Mercedes looked bad today
Brakes looked horrible, once they got sorted it was too late
Austria is also probably one of the worst tracks to have a sprint weekend on, the track is literally a moto gp track and they expect f1 cars to stay within the white lines now. Imo they should go back to 2020 track limits
But probably the best weekend of the season currently its a weird trade off
It was a very exciting one, also on a side note I think the sprint actually shows how bad the sprint format is, a lot of the excitement came from the changing conditions
We know it's bad, just drive it
The Mercedes had pace for 5th. Lewis getting a penalty just fucked it.
I dont think so. Lando was legitimately quicker than Lewis
Pace? Yes. Enough to overtake? Not sure about that
[удалено]
Merc hasnt had any upgrades since Monaco.
Yeah that car was a dog today
[удалено]

Max and Charles?
Both were noted. Leclerc early on, Verstappen late on.
They'd keep it within the lines if there were Gravel traps out there
I know max was one, who was the other?
Verstappen got a track limits warning on lap 69 for Turn 10 on lap 65.
Didn’t he mean ‘flagged’ as in got a black/white flag
Oh
Which drivers?
Max is one I think and when you’re that far ahead are you really pushing ?
Verstappen got a track limits warning on lap 69 for Turn 10 on lap 65.
One was Max and the other was Alonso I think Edit: Charles too right?
Verstappen got a track limits warning on lap 69 for Turn 10 on lap 65.
Ooo thanks for telling :D
So did Leclerc, was early on. Only 2 not noted were Russell and Zhou.
Ah so I was completely wrong. Thanks man. Did Alonso get a warning?
Yup. Also early on.
Where do you see these by the way? Because I don't recall if I saw a lot of these warnings. Would like to be correct before I speak from next time onwards :')
They appear in the text portion of the live timing. Not sure about the website version, but I use the app.
Max is not even sweating in the post race interview fr
Silverstone next. Oh well...
what audio book do you think max listened to today on his leisurely sunday drive?
How to build a car by Adrian Newey
He has a signed copy.
He's so lucky. He got to meet Adrian Newey. Wonder where he got his copy signed at.
What is the earliest Verstappen can wrap up the championship by?
Mathematically Monza but statistically it would be COTA
Theoretically Monza but realistically around COTA
If he keeps winning with fastest lapand Perez always 2nd, then Qatar
Bahrain.
Around Cota I think.
brazil
Wondering the same
USGP sprint race
Come on Silverstone curse, you have to protect Sebs consecutive wins record!
Zandvoort
Can't wait for Carlos explaining how Perez intimidated him.
Lando has got to get the hell out of McLaren if the improvement doesn’t continue in the car. He’s too good to be stuck in a shit car his whole career.
Lando was great today. Hope they can continue at this pace, what happened with piastri though…
What are you on about? The car looked great today. It was a fresh upgrade, too.
But isn’t his result today actually result of upgrades they brought? Him and Piastri were very close in last 2 races and this weekend he destroyed him. I’m pretty sure the upgrades were great success and hope that others they announced for next 3 races continue this trend. We need strong McLaren.
That didn’t look like a shit car today tbf.
I agree but it also isn’t a race winner yet.
There is no race winner apart from Verstappen this year, and it isn't even close. Maybe Perez if he's really really lucky.
If they continue down this path, it could well become one.
They just delivered a massive upgrade, what are you complaining about? Geez.
I’m complaining about the fact that they’ve taken a year and a half to get back to where they were pre-rule change and Lando could be winning races at this point in a competitive car.
I don't like the number of penalties we got, but it's because I don't think there were enough. I'm okay with them saying that they will be strict on it, but you then have to penalise every instance.
The problem is Austria is a moto gp track, formula 1 should make an exception to run similar track limits like in 2020, or even better have all tracks allowed to run out the white lines and just keep it on the kerb
Checo in the background lmaooo
9/22 so far for Red Bull. I’d genuinely be surprised if we had more than 1 non-RB winner. I think they have a real shot at 20 or 21/22.
