And where will he go? I'd don't see any of the top teams making space for him. The only driver on shaky ground is maybe Russell, but that's a big maybe.

He's got plenty of other race series to keep himself busy for the rest of the season. But let's wait and see what happens. We all know Max has been very vocal about the current regulations in F1.

Toto will sign Max as soon as Max is willing.

That would be an even dumber than when Lewis went over to Ferrari. No way is Max and Kimi getting along, Kimi is young and hungry and he won't be standing back for Max. Chances are that Max would struggle to keep up with Kimi anyway.

I don'teven have to watch any of that to know that it was probably Kevin's fault.

Not at all. They guy - Noah Gragson - he had a confrontation with has already been punched in the face by another NASCAR driver.

NASCAR was racing on a temporary ""street circuit". NASCAR on a street circuit means lots of bumping and bruising. Gragson took exception to KMag getting his elbows out and started screwing around with KMag, including brake-checking him and pulling up alongside him and bumping him under caution. Post-race KMag mentioned that he understood enough about NASCAR to have expected this, and started to give Gragson some of his own treatment and started bumping him whenever Gragson would brake check him, before he finally dumped him out of the race. KMag even told him he ''fvcked around and found out''. :laugh:

To his credit, in another interview post-race KMag said he had a lot of fun, even with the stupidity, and described driving the car and the race as a whole as a ''fist fight'' and that he'd like to come back. He mentioned that Gragson could have easily run his own race and left him alone, but he didn't so he put him in the wall. He also set the fastest lap of the race by over a second, so he was on it when ge finally got away from Gragson.

For me, Max is comfortably the class of the field.
 
Craig_ said:
Yeah sure. That's why he is sitting in 7th, 3 places behind Clucky Le Crash that hasn't even gotten any points in the last 2 races.

Unfortunately, the car plays a much bigger role in F1 than the driver.
 
Craig_ said:
There's probably been at least 1 youtube video a day coming out about their engine upgrade. All over F1 news.

So should be an easy race win for Ferrari then, coming of a win and with a bigger upgrade than Merc and McLaren.

It does, and while Max is good, I rate Kimi as the top driver amongst the whole lot at the moment. I'd bet that even with the Ferrari upgrade for this weekend Kimi will probably still beat the old timers.

No one honestly believes that. One swallow does not make a summer. They probably figure out a way to screw over their drivers with some bad strategy decisions.

I wouldn't be surprised if another contract extension is announced.

Not too sure about that. Max has been looking for a reason to go. As I said before, let's wait and see what happens; there's no use in speculating, as I've done.

If he wanted to go he’d go. RB or Aston will make him an offer he can’t refuse. My gut is it’ll be RB. My 5c. Time will tell…
