So Max and Red Bull have already won the championships. Any point in watching anymore? Not that I have Sky anyway.....
Behind RB it is really interesting with plenty of battles. But that isn't really what F1 wants or needs. It is though often what happens.So Max and Red Bull have already won the championships. Any point in watching anymore? Not that I have Sky anyway.....
Not the Baku madness today you sometimes get. Everyone struggled to overtake even with DRS as they just couldn't follow closely enough. Only Red Bull with their ridiculous straight line speed plus DRS had the pace. When Max overtook Charles at the start of the race he had an 18mph advantage down the straight. I'm not sure Checo got lucky as Horner told Max, I think they messed up bringing Max in when they knew De Vries was stuck just off track. If he couldn't get going, which was the case, it was always going to be a safety car. They could have gone an extra lap just in case.Max Verstappen very magnanimous and out of character for him in coming second behind teammate Perez in the Kazakhstan GP today “it is what it is” he said in a relaxed tone over the in car radio to Christian Horner after crossing the finish line when Horner suggested the safety car had probably spoilt Max’s race…Not a great deal of excitement during the race itself.
I think Crofty said in commentary yesterday that Mercedes are expecting to have much better race pace than they showed in qualifying…a podium would seem to be a bit optimistic tho.I don't think Mercedes have the pace this weekend for George to battle with with the Ferrari's and Alonso.
They probably should have better race pace as they won't have to push the kerbs so hard as in qualifying. Might be changeable conditions by the look of it so it could be fun. Will be watching a recording of it later tonight.I think Crofty said in commentary yesterday that Mercedes are expecting to have much better race pace than they showed in qualifying…a podium would seem to be a bit optimistic tho.
